The effect of buttressing on grounding line dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Determining the position and stability of the grounding line of a marine ice sheet is a major challenge for ice-sheet models. Here, we investigate the role of lateral shear and ice-shelf buttressing in grounding line dynamics by extending an existing ...

On the dynamics of the ice sheets 2

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1981
The equation which describes the motion of an ice sheet under its own weight has a cylindrically symmetric similarity solution. The initial value problem of the equation of motion which has been linearized in the deviations from this similarity solution is solved by an expansion of the solution in terms of eigenfunctions of the linearized equation.

Substrate Engineering for Durable Omniphobic Liquid‐Like Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The significant yet less investigated role of substrates in determining the liquid‐repellency and mechanical durability of liquid‐like surfaces (LLSs) is explored. Thick and crack‐free sol–gel silica intermediary layers are developed that can smoothen substrate asperity roughness even at the micron scale, enabling omniphobic polydimethylsiloxane‐based ...

Contribution of the Greenland Ice Sheet to sea level over the next millennium

open access: yesScience Advances, 2018
Simulations show that the Greenland Ice Sheet could disappear within a millennium if greenhouse gas emissions continue unabated. The Greenland Ice Sheet holds 7.2 m of sea level equivalent and in recent decades, rising temperatures have led to ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Solid Earth change and the evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Recent studies suggest that Antarctica has the potential to contribute up to ~15 m of sea-level rise over the next few centuries. The evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet is driven by a combination of climate forcing and non-climatic feedbacks.

Changes in the Greenland Ice Sheet of the Southeastern Maniitsoq Coast from 1994-2004 and 2009-2019 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Remote sensing mechanisms through the use of technology like the Landsat 5-7 Land Manager satellites are commonly used in conjunction with multispectral methods such as unsupervised classification to record and analyze changes in snow and ice over time ...

Preservation of a Preglacial Landscape Under the Center of the Greenland Ice Sheet [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Continental ice sheets typically sculpt landscapes via erosion; under certain conditions, ancient landscapes can be preserved beneath ice and can survive extensive and repeated glaciation.

Synergistic Osteogenesis After Co‐Administration of cmRNAs Encoding BMP‐2 and BMP‐7 Utilizing a Transcript‐Activated Matrix

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the dual delivery of BMP‐2/‐7 coding cmRNAs for bone healing is demonstrated as feasible, safe, and highly osteogenic. Compared to single BMP‐2 or BMP‐7 cmRNAs, the combination enhances the production of both mineral and organic components of the extracellular matrix when delivered using a collagen‐HA scaffold, supporting ...

Greenland Ice Sheet surface melt amplified by snowline migration and bare ice exposure

open access: yesScience Advances, 2019
Greenland’s snowline exhibits large fluctuations and is a primary amplifier of ice sheet surface melt and runoff. Greenland Ice Sheet mass loss has recently increased because of enhanced surface melt and runoff.
