The impact of the North American glacial topography on the evolution of the Eurasian ice sheet over the last glacial cycle [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2016 Modeling studies have shown that the continental-scale ice sheets in North America and Eurasia in the last glacial cycle had a large influence on the atmospheric circulation and thus yielded a climate distinctly different from the present.

Recent deposition of 210Pb on the Greenland ice sheet: variations in space and time [PDF]
, 1990 Detailed 210Pb profiles were determined for four Chernobyl dated\u27 snowpits sampled during a wide-ranging survey of the Greenland ice sheet during the 1988 season.

CD9‐association with PIP2 areas is regulated by a CD9 salt bridge
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The tetraspanin CD9 has an intracellular salt bridge. If CD9 opens, open‐CD9 moves from PIP2‐rich areas to regions populated by its interaction partner EWI‐2. Hence, the state of the salt bridge regulates the distribution of CD9 and by this CD9‐EWI‐2 complex formation.

Modelling the Early Weichselian Eurasian Ice Sheets: role of ice shelves and influence of ice-dammed lakes [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2007 During the last glaciation, a marine ice sheet repeatedly appeared in Eurasia. The floating part of this ice sheet was essential to its rapid extension over the seas.

GRANTSISM: An Excel™ ice sheet model for use in introductory Earth science courses [PDF]
, 2018 GRANTISM (GReenland and ANTarctic Ice Sheet Model) is an educational Excel™ model introduced by Pattyn (2006). Here, GRANTISM is amended to simulate the Svalbard-Barents-Sea Ice Sheet during the Last Glacial Maximum, an analogue for the contemporary West

Structural and functional characterization of chitinase from carnivorous plant Drosera adelae
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.A class I chitinase from the carnivorous plant Drosera adelae was expressed and purified using a yeast system, revealing high enzymatic activity. Structural analyses of the catalytic and chitin‐binding domains identified key tyrosine residues involved in substrate binding, offering insights into the enzyme's adaptation for insect digestion.

Pliocene Ice Sheet Modelling Intercomparison Project (PLISMIP) – experimental design [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2012 During the mid-Pliocene warm period (3.264 to 3.025 million years ago), global mean temperature was similar to that predicted for the next century and atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations were slightly higher than today.

A temperate former West Antarctic ice sheet suggested by an extensive zone of bed channels [PDF]
, 2014 Several recent studies predict that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet will become increasingly unstable under warmer conditions. Insights on such change can be assisted through investigations of the subglacial landscape, which contains imprints of former ice ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Angubindin‐1 binds angulin‐1/‐3 at tricellular tight junctions, enhancing intestinal macromolecule permeation. Alanine scanning identified six essential residues (L562, L598, E638, V640, Y643, and K644) of angubindin‐1 critical for binding to angulin‐1/‐3 and permeation‐enhancing activity, providing insights for the development of targeted noninvasive ...

Trends in Antarctic Ice Sheet Elevation and Mass
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 Fluctuations in Antarctic Ice Sheet elevation and mass occur over a variety of time scales, owing to changes in snowfall and ice flow. Here we disentangle these signals by combining 25 years of satellite radar altimeter observations and a regional ...
