On the occurrence of annual layers in Dome Fuji ice core early Holocene ice [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2015 Whereas ice cores from high-accumulation sites in coastal Antarctica clearly demonstrate annual layering, it is debated whether a seasonal signal is also preserved in ice cores from lower-accumulation sites further inland and particularly on the East ...

Kinetics of the reactions of OH with CO, NO, and NO2 and of HO2 with NO2 in air at 1 atm pressure, room temperature, and tropospheric water vapour concentrations [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsThe termolecular reactions of hydroxyl radicals (OH) with carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxide (NO), and nitrogen dioxides (NO2) and the termolecular reaction of hydroperoxy radicals (HO2) with NO2 greatly impact the atmospheric oxidation efficiency.

How does sea ice influence δ18O of Arctic precipitation? [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2017 This study investigates how variations in Arctic sea ice and sea surface conditions influence δ18O of present-day Arctic precipitation. This is done using the model isoCAM3, an isotope-equipped version of the National Center for Atmospheric Research ...

Sea-Ice Production in Antarctic Coastal Polynyas Estimated From AMSR2 Data and Its Validation Using AMSR-E and SSM/I-SSMIS Data [PDF]
, 2017 Antarctic coastal polynyas are very high sea-ice production areas. The resultant large amount of brine rejection leads to the formation of dense water.

A persistent and dynamic East Greenland Ice Sheet over the past 7.5 million years [PDF]
, 2016 Climate models show that ice-sheet melt will dominate sea-level rise over the coming centuries, but our understanding of ice-sheet variations before the last interglacial 125,000 years ago remains fragmentary.

Response of the large-scale subglacial drainage system of Northeast Greenland to surface elevation changes [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2015 The influence of subglacial water on the dynamics of ice flow has been the object of increasing interest in the past decade. In this study we focus on large-scale, long-term changes in surface elevation over Northeast Greenland and the corresponding ...

Towards high resolution, validated and open global wind power assessments
Nature CommunicationsWind power is widely recognized as a key component of future net-zero energy systems. However, substantial variability among current wind resource and power simulations used for wind farm deployment limits the reliability of siting and system integration

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Despite frogs avoiding low temperatures, examination of four salamander species revealed that none avoided cold and all possessed cold tolerance. Functional analysis of TRPM8, a cold sensor, showed that all salamander TRPM8s had lost their cold sensitivity.
