Modeling glacio-hydrological processes in the Himalayas: A review and future perspectives

Geography and Sustainability
The Himalayas and their surrounding areas boast vast glaciers rivaling those in polar regions, supplying vital meltwater to the Indus, Ganges, and Brahmaputra rivers, supporting over a billion downstream inhabitants for drinking, power, and agriculture ...

Does Climate Risk Affect Employment Decisions? International Evidence

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the effect of climate risk on corporate employment decisions. Using a large sample from 41 countries, we find a positive association between climate risk and underinvestment in labor, notably manifesting as excessive employee layoffs.

Positional Relationship Between the Orbicularis Oculi and Zygomaticus Complex Muscles by Ultrasonography: New Anatomical Insights for Crow's Feet Injection

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The orbicularis oculi muscle (OOc) is strongly associated with facial aging as its contraction causes the formation of crow's feet. Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injection is a representative treatment targeting muscle. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the anatomical relationship between the OOc and the zygomaticus complex muscles, and ...

Synthesis and Functional Properties of Fluorinated Phosphonate‐Substituted Porphyrins: Excellent Photosensitizers and Robust Precursors for Photoactive Langmuir–Schaefer Films

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This is a comprehensive study of new family of high functionalized meso‐tetraarylporphyrins. A synthetic approach to phosphonate‐substituted fluorinated porphyrins was developed. These compounds were investigated with respect to singlet oxygen generation and photostability.

A multi-level strategy for anticipating future glacier lake formation and associated hazard potentials [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010
In the course of glacier retreat, new glacier lakes can develop. As such lakes can be a source of natural hazards, strategies for predicting future glacier lake formation are important for an early planning of safety measures.

Titanium‐Catalyzed Diastereoselective Keto‐ and Iminonitrile Cyclizations

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The titanium(III)‐catalyzed diastereoselective cyclization of readily‐available substituted ketonitriles gives cyclopentanones in good yield and stereoselectivity. Subsequent 1,2‐addition allows the preparation of cyclopentyls with three consecutive stereocenters.

Synthesis and characterization of amphiphilic nitroxide 1,1,3,3–tetraethylisoindoline–2–oxyl–5–sodium sulfonate (TEIOSNa)

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The synthesis and characterization of an amphiphilic nitroxide to be used as a controlling agent in a nitroxide‐mediated living radical polymerization in aqueous dispersion media is presented. In the first stage of nitroxide synthesis (phthalimide protection), two reaction methods were employed: traditional and microwave.

Synthesis and characterization of a highly hydrophilic nanocomposite for wettability alteration, water/oil interfacial tension reduction, and enhanced oil recovery

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Mechanism of wettability alteration, interfacial tension reduction, and oil recovery by novel nanocomposite. Abstract The development of stable nanofluids (NFs) for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) relies on optimizing interactions between reservoir rocks and fluids.
