Distributed acoustic sensing of microseismic sources and wave propagation in glaciated terrain

Nature Communications, 2020
In this study, Walter and colleagues deploy a 1 km long fiber optics cable on a glacier surface. Via the use of distributed acoustic sensing, the authors are capable of monitoring glacier dynamics and Alpine mass movements.

A nanoplatform that induces dual‐amino acid deprivation to reverse tumor immunosuppression and enhance metabolic immunotherapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
ZIF‐8‐based nanoparticles co‐delivering CB‐839 (glutaminase inhibitor) and 1‐MT (IDO1 inhibitor), dual‐targeting glutamine/tryptophan metabolism to induce immunogenic cell death, activate STING, block kynurenine production, reverse immunosuppression, and enhance cancer immunotherapy to suppress primary/distant tumors.

Tailoring drug‐to‐lipid ratio in redox‐responsive lipid‐mimetic prodrug liposomes for superior cabazitaxel delivery and antitumor efficacy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Redox‐responsive lipid‐mimetic prodrug liposomes with high drug‐to‐lipid ratios enhance cabazitaxel delivery, prolong circulation, and enable tumor‐selective drug release for superior antitumor efficacy and safety. Abstract Liposomes represent one of the most extensively investigated nanocarriers in drug delivery.

Nacre‐inspired layered composite with excellent mechanical support and osteogenic potential for cervical interbody cage

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The cervical interbody cage needs to take both biomechanical and biological requirements into account. Here, a new‐style degradable, multicomponent, and bioinspired nacre‐like cervical interbody cage composite, which exhibits promising mechanical‐support‐related behavior and osteogenesis‐related potential, is designed and prepared.

An energy-balance model for debris-covered glaciers including heat conduction through the debris layer [PDF]

, 2010
Extensive covers of supraglacial debris are often present in glacier ablation areas, and it is essential to assess exactly how the debris affects glacier melt rates.

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Response of a marine-terminating Greenland outlet glacier to abrupt cooling 8200 and 9300 years ago [PDF]

, 2011
Long-term records of Greenland outlet-glacier change extending beyond the satellite era can inform future predictions of Greenland Ice Sheet behavior. Of particular relevance is elucidating the Greenland Ice Sheet's response to decadal- and centennial ...

Galloping glaciers monitored from space

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1973
‘Galloping’ or surging glaciers, as well as nonsurging glaciers up to 40 miles in length around Mt. McKinley in south central Alaska, have been identified clearly in images returned from the first experimental Larth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS 1).The images, also revealing the extent of sediment plumes from coastal glaciers, offer considerable

Resolving the biome debate: ecological and palaeo‐data concur that the extensive tree‐limited grassy biomes of central and north‐western Madagascar are largely anthropogenic

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example.
