Sinking of a magnetically confined mountain on an accreting neutron star [PDF]
MNRAS 402 1099--1110 (2010), 2009 We perform ideal-magnetohydrodynamic axisymmetric simulations of magnetically confined mountains on an accreting neutron star, with masses less than ~0.12 solar masses. We consider two scenarios, in which the mountain sits atop a hard surface or sinks into a soft, fluid base.

Thermal IR satellite sensor data application for earthquake research in China [PDF]
International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2000, Vol. 21, No. 16,
pp. 3169-3177, 2020 NOAA/AVHRR thermal images indicated the presence of positive thermal anomalies that are associated with the large linear structures and fault systems of the Earth's crust. The relation between thermal anomalies and seismic activity was established for Middle Asia on the basis of a 7-year series of thermal images.

Remote Sensing, 2022 Glaciers are sensitive indicators of climate change and have a significant influence on regional water cycle, human survival and social development. Global warming has led to great changes in glaciers over the High Mountain Asia (HMA) region.

Effects of topographic smoothing on the simulation of winter precipitation in High Mountain Asia [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2017 AbstractNumerous studies have projected future changes in High Mountain Asia water resources based on temperature and precipitation from global circulation models (GCMs) under future climate scenarios. Although the potential benefit of such studies is immense, coarse grid‐scale GCMs are unable to resolve High Mountain Asia's complex topography and thus

The GAMDAM glacier inventory: a quality-controlled inventory of Asian glaciers [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2015 We present a new glacier inventory for high-mountain Asia named "Glacier Area Mapping for Discharge from the Asian Mountains" (GAMDAM). Glacier outlines were delineated manually using 356 Landsat ETM+ scenes in 226 path-row sets from the period 1999–2003,

The Cryosphere, 2021 . Knowledge about the occurrence and characteristics of surge-type glaciers is crucial due to the impact of surging on glacier melt and glacier related hazards. One of the "super-clusters" of surge-type glaciers is the mountains of Asia.

Degree Landscapes in Scale-Free Networks [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 74, 036119 (2006), 2005 We generalize the degree-organizational view of real-world networks with broad degree-distributions in a landscape analogue with mountains (high-degree nodes) and valleys (low-degree nodes). For example, correlated degrees between adjacent nodes corresponds to smooth landscapes (social networks), hierarchical networks to one-mountain landscapes (the ...

Magnetically Confined Mountains on Accreting Neutron Stars in General Relativity [PDF]
, 2023 The general relativistic formulation of the problem of magnetically confined mountains on neutron stars is presented, and the resulting equations are solved numerically, generalising previous Newtonian calculations. The hydromagnetic structure of the accreted matter and the subsequent magnetic burial of the star's magnetic dipole moment are computed ...
