Dielectric anisotropy as indicator of crystal orientation fabric in Dome Fuji ice core: method and initial results

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2022
Polycrystalline ice is known to exhibit macroscopic anisotropy in relative permittivity (ɛ) depending on the crystal orientation fabric (COF). Using a new system designed to measure the tensorial components of ɛ, we investigated the dielectric anisotropy

Melting temperature changes during slip across subglacial cavities drive basal mass exchange

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2022
The importance of glacier sliding has motivated a rich literature describing the thermomechanical interactions between ice, liquid water and bed materials. Early recognition of the gradient in melting temperature across small bed obstacles led to focused

Neutron diffraction and NMR relaxation studies of structural variation and phase transformations for water/ice in SBA-15 silica: I. The over-filled case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Neutron diffraction and NMR relaxation measurements have been made of water/ice in SBA-15, a mesoporous silica constituting an ordered array of cylindrical mesopores of pore diameter similar to 86 angstrom, over the temperature range 180-300 K in a ...

Physics-aware machine learning for glacier ice thickness estimation: a case study for Svalbard [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
The ice thickness of the world's glaciers is mostly unmeasured, and physics-based models to reconstruct ice thickness cannot always deliver accurate estimates.

Seasonal evolution of granular and columnar sea ice pore microstructure and pore network connectivity

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2022
Sea-ice pore microstructure constrains ice transport properties, affecting fluid flow relevant to oil-in-ice transport and biogeochemical processes. Motivated by a lack of pore microstructural data, in particular for granular ice and across the seasonal ...

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Multiscale physics of rubber-ice friction

open access: yes, 2016
Ice friction plays an important role in many engineering applications, e.g., tires on icy roads, ice breaker ship motion, or winter sports equipment. Although numerous experiments have already been performed to understand the effect of various conditions

Mitigating stellar radial velocity jitter using orthogonal activity indices and a time-aware neural network

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Despite recent advances in the precision of high-resolution spectrographs, the detection of Earth-like exoplanets is still limited by the effects of stellar activity, which introduce radial velocity variations at the metre-per-second level or ...

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in
