Research on Monitoring the Speed of Glacier Terminus Movement Based on the Time-Series Interferometry of a Ground-Based Radar System

Remote Sensing
The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is the largest glacier reserve outside the Antarctic and Arctic regions. Climate warming has affected the reserve of freshwater resources and led to frequent glacier disasters.

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.

Coupling Atomic Confinement With CO2 Pressure for Selective and Stable CO2 Electroreduction

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
The coupling of high‐pressure operation with atomic‐scale catalyst design was investigated via an electrochemical cation implantation (ECI) process to create confined reaction environments over SnOx catalyst. The synergistic interplay between structural confinement and CO2 pressure was investigated, and the reaction mechanism for CO2RR to CO was ...

Insights From Two Decades of Seismicity at Columbia Glacier

Geophysical Research Letters
We use Columbia Glacier as a case study to demonstrate how seismically cataloged calving events in Alaska can track glacier evolution over two decades. By combining this catalog—a serendipitous byproduct of earthquake monitoring—with terminus positions ...

Boron Monofluoride Complexes Bearing π‐Expanded Coumarin Subunits: Facile Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Solid‐State Enhanced Emission

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We here report the design, facile synthesis, experimental, and theoretical characterization of a novel class of monofluoroborate compounds featuring π‐expanded coumarin subunits displaying solid‐state enhanced Emission. The origin of this phenomenon is disclosed by combined theoretical and spectroscopic investigations.

Using PlanetScope-derived time-series elevation models and orthophotos to track glacier 3D dynamics in mid-latitude mountain regions

GIScience & Remote Sensing
Assessing glacier surface height changes provides crucial insights into glacier mass loss and the impact of climate variability. Remote sensing images play a vital role in providing data points for monitoring.

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.

Expression, Purification, and Microscopy‐Based Assays for Engineered Recombinant Tyrosinated, Detyrosinated, and Δ2 Human Tubulin

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microtubules are noncovalent polymers assembled from α/β tubulin dimers. Their structure, dynamics and interaction with effectors are regulated through the expression of diverse tubulin isotypes and chemically diverse posttranslational modifications, also known as the “tubulin code.” Understanding the biophysical correlates between tubulin ...

World Glacier Monitoring Service [en]

The World Glacier Monitoring Service (WGMS) collects standardised observations on changes in mass, volume, area and length of glaciers with time (glacier fluctuations), as well as statistical information on the distribution of perennial surface ice in ...

Modelling PolSAR Scattering Signatures at Long Wavelengths of Glacier Ice Volumes [PDF]

, 2012
The crucial role of cryosphere for understanding the global climate change has been widely recognized in recent decades [1]. Glaciers and ice sheets are the main components of the cryosphere and constitute the basic reservoir of fresh water for high ...
