Ice cover loss and debris cover evolution in the Afghanistan Hindu Kush Himalaya between 2000 and 2020

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research
Glaciers in Afghanistan are crucial elements for water resource and summer river flows. They are also threatened by rapid climate warming. This study presents an up-to-date assessment of ice cover loss for the entire country over two periods, 2000–2008 ...

Myrcene‐Based Tailored Co‐Polymers as Active Pharmaceutical Excipients: Bio‐Based Solutions for Mucoadhesive Excipients

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mucoadhesive amphiphilic block and statistical copolymers were synthesized via Reversible Addition–Fragmentation Chain Transfer polymerization from bio‐sourced myrcene and polyethylene glycol methacrylate. The resulting polymers exhibit narrow molar‐mass distributions, high regioselectivity, well‐defined microstructures, and tend to self‐assemble into ...

Ice sheets as a significant source of highly reactive nanoparticulate iron to the oceans

open access: yes, 2014
The Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets cover ~\n10% of global land surface, but are rarely considered as active components of the global iron cycle. The ocean waters around both ice sheets harbour highly productive coastal ecosystems, many of which are ...

Characteristics and growth processes of sea ice in Lutzow-Holm Bay

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1997
Observations of multiyear land fast sea ice were made in Lutzow-Holm Bay, Antarctica over a period of two years from 1990 to 1991 to determine the snow and ice characteristics and ice growth prowth processes.

Transitional circulation patterns from full ice cover to ice-off in a seasonally ice-covered lake

open access: yesAquatic Sciences
AbstractThere is consensus that under-ice circulation presents multiple phases through the winter, and that different mechanisms dominate each period. In this work, measurements of temperature, water velocity, conductivity, and dissolved oxygen from Lake Massawippi, Quebec, Canada, obtained during the ice-covered season in 2019, were used to ...

Surprising Water Slipping Performance on Highly Hydrophilic PEG‐Derived Monolayer‐Covered Surfaces: Preparation, Mechanism, and Application

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Highly hydrophilic surfaces (water contact angle, ≈17.7°) exhibiting surprising water slipping performance (sliding angle, ≈7.3°) are successfully prepared via simple chemisorption of polyethylene glycol (PEG) organosilane and subsequent alkali‐treatment.

Divergent patterns of recent sea ice cover across the Bering, Chukchi, and Beaufort seas of the Pacific Arctic Region

open access: yes, 2015
Over the past three decades of the observed satellite record, there have been significant changes in sea ice cover across the Bering, Chukchi, and Beaufort seas of the Pacific Arctic Region (PAR). Satellite data reveal that patterns in sea ice cover have
