Navigating Lipid Nanostructure Design Space Through Continuous Microfluidic Automation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
LipidXplorer is a novel microfluidic platform which enables rapid navigation of lipid particle design space for high‐resolution phase mapping, lipid nanoparticle optimization, membrane biophysics, and functional nanomaterial discovery. It combines programmable composition control, continuous nanoparticle formation, and automated well‐plate collection ...

The effect of Antarctic ice-shelf extent on ice discharge

2021
<div>The buttressing strength of Antarctic ice shelves directly effects the amount of ice discharge across the grounding line, with buttressing strength affected by both the thickness and extent of an ice shelf. Recent work has shown that a reduction in ice-shelf buttressing due to ocean induced ice-shelf thinning is responsible for a ...

Northern Hemisphere Sea Ice Extent

Science, 2000
Vinnikov et al . ([1][1]) strongly suggested that the observed downward trend in Northern Hemisphere sea ice extent from 1953 to 1998 relates to anthropogenic global warming. Their conclusion was based on the supposed low probability ( P < 0.1%) that a trend of the observed magnitude results ...

A Decade of QuikSCAT Scatterometer Sea Ice Extent Data [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2014
Polar sea ice is an important input to global climate models and is considered to be a sensitive indicator of climate change. While originally designed only for wind estimation, radar backscatter measurements collected by wind scatterometers have proven useful for estimating the extent of sea ice.

Storm-induced sea-ice breakup and the implications for ice extent

Nature, 2014
The propagation of large, storm-generated waves through sea ice has so far not been measured, limiting our understanding of how ocean waves break sea ice. Without improved knowledge of ice breakup, we are unable to understand recent changes, or predict future changes, in Arctic and Antarctic sea ice.

The Extent of the Cordilleran Ice-Sheet

The Journal of Geology, 1913
Through the courtesy of members of the United States Forest Service I was enabled, in the summer of 1912, to make some observations upon glaciation in the Kaniksu National Forest in northern Idaho. Because of the inaccessibility of a part of the region and the lack of suitable maps, the work was not complete; but in view of our slight knowledge of the ...

Global Warming and Northern Hemisphere Sea Ice Extent

Science, 1999
Surface and satellite-based observations show a decrease in Northern Hemisphere sea ice extent during the past 46 years. A comparison of these trends to control and transient integrations (forced by observed greenhouse gases and tropospheric sulfate aerosols) from the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory and Hadley Centre climate models reveals that ...

The critical extent of polar ice‐caps

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1927
This is a brief review of our present knowledge concerning one aspect of climatic control. The subject is of importance in connection with certain phases of geology such as glaciation and the Wegener hypothesis. According to this hypothesis the continents at various times have drifted apart in an east‐west direction and have also experienced large ...

Arctic sea ice extent and thickness

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Physical and Engineering Sciences, 1995
Abstract Current knowledge on Arctic sea ice extent and thickness variability is reviewed, and we examine whether measurements to date provide evidence for the impact of climate change. The total Arctic ice extent has shown a small but significant reduction of (2.1 ± 0.9)% during the period 1978-87, after apparently increasing from a ...

Regional variability of Antarctic sea ice extent

Russian Meteorology and Hydrology, 2016
Interannual and seasonal variability of regional distribution of Antarctic sea ice extent is studied using monthly mean data on sea ice concentration in 1970-2012. The correlation is estimated between the variations in the area of floating ice in West and East Antarctica as well as in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian sectors of the Southern Ocean and ...
