Assessing the influence of the Merzbacher Lake outburst floods on discharge using the hydrological model SWIM in the Aksu headwaters, Kyrgyzstan/NW China [PDF]
, 2013 Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOF) often have a significant impact on downstream users. Including their effects in hydrological models, identifying past occurrences and assessing their potential impacts are challenges for hydrologists working in ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Inspired by natural silicified wood, a biomimetic mineralized chitin‐derived aerogel is constructed. It can withstand 81 000 times its own weight, and its backside temperature is 130.4°C after exposure to ∼1300°C butane flame for 600 s, exhibiting high‐strength, fire‐resistance, and super thermal‐insulation properties.

Multivalent Glycopolymer Design Unlocks Antimicrobial Activity of 2‐Deoxyglucose
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.New approaches to combat antimicrobial‐resistant pathogens are needed. Here, scaffolding a nonmetabolizable sugar (2DG) on a polymer backbone is shown to significantly improve its antimicrobial activity. ABSTRACT With the increasing prevalence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) pathogens, last‐line therapeutics such as cyclic peptides are insufficient ...

Regional passive seismic monitoring reveals dynamic glacier activity on Spitsbergen, Svalbard [PDF]
Polar Research, 2015 Dynamic glacier activity is increasingly observed through passive seismic monitoring. We analysed near-regional-scale seismicity on the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard to identify seismic icequake signals and to study their spatial–temporal distribution ...

Icequakes coupled with surface displacements for predicting glacier break-off
, 2010 A hanging glacier at the east face of Weisshorn (Switzerland) broke off in 2005. We were able to monitor and measure surface motion and icequake activity for 25 days up to three days prior to the break-off.
