Vacuum Infusion as a Processing Route for Transparent Wood Laminates
Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Schematic representation of the fabrication route for transparent wood laminates, including wood veneer delignification, epoxy resin impregnation by vacuum infusion processing, and the final TW‐1 transparent wood laminate. ABSTRACT Transparent wood (TW) has attracted increasing attention as a bio‐based material for daylighting and building‐envelope ...

Permafrost Distribution in the Canadian Rockies: Key Variables Influencing Patch‐Scale Variability
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of permafrost in mountainous regions is influenced by various factors such as topography, climate, vegetation, and substrate. Despite the existence of comprehensive permafrost maps at national and global levels, they fail to accurately represent the patch‐scale (e.g., < 25 m) permafrost distribution in characteristic ...

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Under continued climate warming, understanding present‐day permafrost distribution and the controls on ground thaw are critical for predicting permafrost thaw trajectories and associated implications. This study presents a high‐resolution investigation of permafrost extent and active layer thickness (ALT) across a coniferous forested hillslope

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT High‐resolution mapping of permafrost in ecologically and topographically complex landscapes remains a major challenge. Existing models of permafrost extent often rely on equilibrium assumptions, which can misrepresent conditions in regions where permafrost persists largely due to ecosystem structure.

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Using a large and novel array of instruments on five rockwalls in northern Gaspesia, their respective surface energy balances were calculated and their thermal regimes were measured and modeled to depths exceeding the seasonal frost penetration.

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates the multi‐decadal evolution of a glacier forefield under permafrost conditions in the Combins Massif (western Swiss Alps). A multi‐method approach based on historical and recent datasets is used to analyze its landform components.

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The existence of permafrost was explored at tropical latitude on Nevado Coropuna (southern Peruvian Andes) using a combination of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and vertical electrical sounding (VES) in order to strengthen the mutual validation of data processing and interpretation.

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 ...
