Initiation of a major calving event on the Bowdoin Glacier captured by UAV photogrammetry [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2017
In this paper, we analyse the calving activity of the Bowdoin Glacier, north-western Greenland, in 2015 by combining satellite images, UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) photogrammetry and ice flow modelling.

Subglacial drainage processes at a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier [PDF]

, 2005
Dye-tracer experiments undertaken over two summer melt seasons at polythermal John Evans Glacier, Ellesmere Island, Canada, were designed to investigate the character of the subglacial drainage system and its evolution over a melt season. In both summers,

Grain Boundary Structure Ordering via Electroshock Treatment Enhances Strength‐Ductility Synergy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Electroshock treatment triggers atomic rearrangement, transforming disordered grain boundaries into ordered states without inducing recrystallization. This grain boundary ordering effectively relieves strain concentration and strengthens boundaries, enabling a simultaneous improvement in both strength and ductility.

Ecological interactions in glacier environments: a review of studies on a model Alpine glacier

Biological Reviews
ABSTRACTGlaciers host a variety of cold‐adapted taxa, many of which have not yet been described. Interactions among glacier organisms are even less clear. Understanding ecological interactions is crucial to unravelling the functioning of glacier ecosystems, particularly in light of current glacier retreat.

Analysis of Alpine glacier length change records with a macroscopic glacier model [PDF]

Geographica Helvetica, 2010
Abstract. The length change record of 91 glaciers in the Swiss Alps was analyzed with a novel macroscopic glacier model (LV-model). Based on a history of equilibrium line variations, synthetic length change data were calculated. From the LV-models matching best the measured length changes, characteristic parameters were obtained.

Covalently Linked Peptides and Membrane Potential Enable CyaA Segment Translocation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using a newly developed Droplet Interface Bilayer‐Pipette assay, the authors show that two segments of the CyaA toxin cross membranes by distinct mechanisms. One segment translocates spontaneously, whereas the translocation of the other depends on membrane potential.

Hydraulic impacts of glacier advance over a sediment bed [PDF]

, 2006
A sedimentary sequence of till overlying a gravel aquifer was instrumented with water-pressure transducers prior to a small, anticipated surge of the margin of the glacier Breiðamerkurjökull in Iceland.

Loss of CYLD on Chromosome 16q Impairs Homologous Recombination and Genomic Stability Through TIRR Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chromosome 16q loss drives genomic instability through disruption of the CYLD–TIRR–53BP1 axis. CYLD preserves homologous recombination by stabilizing TIRR and limiting 53BP1 accumulation at DNA double‐strand breaks. CYLD deficiency redirects repair toward error‐prone non‐homologous end joining, promotes mutational burden and homologous recombination ...

Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

Modelling Dynamics of Valley Glaciers

, 2012
Ever since the Paleoproterozoic snowball Earth era, ca. 2.4 billion years ago (e.g. Hoffman & Schrag, 2000; Kirschvink, 1992), and beyond, the landscape of the planet Earth has been shaped up by the tremendous amount of scouring due to the repeated waxing and waning of ice masses.
