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 ...

Talin1 Adhesion Morphology and Colocalization With Tensin3 Are Largely Unaffected by Polyacrylamide Substrate Stiffness

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

Discovery of the Fastest Ice Flow along the Central Flow Line of Austre Lovénbreen, a Poly-thermal Valley Glacier in Svalbard

Remote Sensing, 2019
Ice flow velocity is a sensitive indicator of glacier variations both controlling and representing the delivery of ice and affecting the future stability of ice masses in a warming climate.

Glacier changes in the Bavarian Alps from 1989/90 to 2006/07 [PDF]

, 2008
The five glaciers in Bavaria which today cover a total area of less than one square kilometer were frequently monitored by geodetic methods from the mid of the 20th century. In this paper, the record is extended by new surveys in 1999 and 2006.

Climatic drivers prevail in montane and lowland Odonata latitudinal diversity gradients, but human modification erodes lowland patterns

Ecography, EarlyView.
Latitudinal diversity gradients (LDGs) arise from the interplay of historical, ecological, and evolutionary processes, yet these drivers may differ across landforms. Mountains, with steep elevational and climatic gradients, often sustain distinct diversity dynamics compared with adjacent lowlands, where vertical climatic gradients are weak and human ...

Monitoring and Analyzing Mountain Glacier Surface Movement Using SAR Data and a Terrestrial Laser Scanner: A Case Study of the Himalayas North Slope Glacier Area

Remote Sensing, 2019
The offset tracking technique based on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image intensity information can estimate glacier displacement even when glacier velocities are high and the time interval between images is long, allowing for the broad use of this ...

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

Understanding the point mass balance and surface ice velocity for the debris-covered glacier, Panchi II, western Himalaya (India)

Results in Earth Sciences
Debris-covered glaciers with complex morphological features, including ice cliffs and supraglacial lakes, remain relatively understudied in the Himalaya.
