Fifty years of studying the Medvezhiy Glacier (West Pamirs) by the Institute of Geography, RAS

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
Overview of researches conducted over 50 years (1963–2012) by Institute of Geography RAS on the surging glacier Medvezhiy, the West Pamirs is given. Ground investigations (changes of its surface altitude, ice movement velocity, ablation, ice thickness ...

Crevasses triggered on Pine Island Glacier by drilling through an exceptional melt layer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The basic theory of crevasse formation suggests that crevasses initiate at or near the surface. However, due to variations in stress with depth, it has been suggested that it is possible for crevasses to initiate at depths of 10–30m.

Surge history and dynamics of Fisher Glacier, Yukon, 1948–2022

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Remotely sensed datasets indicate that Fisher Glacier underwent two surges since 1948: during approximately 1969–72 and 2013–16. These were characterized by an advanced terminus position (terminus-wide average advance 571 ± 143 m from 1963 to 1972 and ...

Including debris cover effects in a distributed model of glacier ablation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Distributed glacier melt models generally assume that the glacier surface consists of bare exposed ice and snow. In reality, many glaciers are wholly or partially covered in layers of debris that tend to suppress ablation rates.

Phase‐Pure and Size‐Tunable Tin Halide Perovskite Quantum Dots

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A trioctylphosphine oxide modulated protocol allows for the synthesis and study of the optical properties of a broad library of tin halide perovskite quantum dots across multiple A‐ and X‐site compositions with precise size tuning while eliminating unwanted 2D phases.

Surge dynamics in the Nathorstbreen glacier system, Svalbard [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2014
Nathorstbreen glacier system (NGS) recently experienced the largest surge in Svalbard since 1936, and this was examined using spatial and temporal observations from DEM differencing, time series of surface velocities from satellite synthetic aperture ...

Intra-annual and intra-seasonal flow dynamics of a High Arctic polythermal valley glacier [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Measurements of surface dynamics on polythermal John Evans Glacier, Nunavut, Canada, over two winter periods and every 7-10 days throughout two melt seasons (June-July 2000, 2001) provide new insight into spatio-temporal patterns of High Arctic glacier ...

Introducing Borsantrazole: A Trifunctional Boron‐Based Pyrazole That Extends the Lifespan of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Herein we report a boron‐based pyrazole, (Borsantrazole ‐ a small molecule that selectively targets oxidative stress) that significantly increases survival, reduces weight loss, delays disease onset, and affects global protein changes in the SOD1‐G37R mouse model of ALS.

Downwasting and supraglacial lake evolution on the debris-covered Ngozumpa Glacier, Khumbu Himal, Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In recent decades, the downwasting of several debris-covered glaciers in the Himalaya has led to the formation of large and potentially hazardous moraine- dammed lakes.

Freedom dreaming of migrant justice: Critical reflections on counterspaces and institutional violence in the university

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract US universities are built on stolen land and sustained through hierarchies of power that produce what migrant justice scholars name as b/order regimes. As institutions that claim to be sites of learning and inclusion, universities are fraught with contradictions as simultaneously sites of dispossession, exclusion, and control.
