Resolving allogenic forcings on shallow‐marine sedimentary archives of the Taiwan Western Foreland Basin

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An investigation of allogenic forcings on shallow‐marine strata of the Miocene–Pliocene Kueichulin Formation, Taiwan Western Foreland Basin, reveals that shifts in palaeoenvironments were strongly controlled by: (1) orogenesis and basin subsidence, (2) precession‐driven hydroclimate and (3) obliquity‐driven atmospheric and ocean circulation ...

New Geochronological Constraints on the Late Palaeozoic Tarija Basin, Southern Bolivia: Tectonic and Palaeoclimatic Implications

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Carboniferous‐Permian Tarija basin of southern Bolivia evolved under major tectonic and climatic influence. The timing of transition from glacially influenced to arid conditions, after the Gondwanide tectonic event, has been based mainly on palynological correlations.

Living in the Mycelial World

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Exploring tricine as a novel red cell cryopreservative: Lessons and future directions

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Cryopreservation allows for storage of red blood cells (RBCs) beyond the standard 35‐day period. Current glycerol‐based methods are labour‐intensive and scale‐limited in application. Tricine has been identified as a potential alternative cryoprotectant (CPA), demonstrating efficacy in sheep RBC.

An Ice Shelf Breakup [PDF]

open access: possibleScience, 1996
Large ice masses such as ice sheets and ice shelves change as the Earth's climate changes, and can serve as indicators of past climate variation. In his Perspective, Fahnestock discusses observations reported by Rott et al. in the same issue, which show the dramatic collapse

Ice shelf balances

Cold Regions Science and Technology, 1982
Abstract A two-dimensional analysis which neglects profile variation in a lateral direction is presented for a floating viscous ice shelf. It applies to plane flow and to unconfined flow which is within short distances of the symmetry line. It is shown that surface variation can, in time, make a significant contribution to the balance, and yet be too

The Ross Ice Shelf Project

Science, 1979
A hole was drilled through the Ross Ice Shelf 450 kilometers from the barrier. Scientific sampling through this hole revealed a sparse population of crustaceans, fish, and microbial biomass. The seabed consists of mid-Miocene glaciomarine mud. Geothermal heat flow is average.

The Petermann Ice Shelf Estuary and its impact on ice-shelf stability

2020
<p>In a warming world, increased meltwater will form on Antarctica’s ice shelves. The fate of this meltwater will be critical to future ice-shelf and ice-sheet stability. Two main observations define the current theoretical framework for understanding the influence of surface hydrology on ice-shelf stability.

Ross Ice Shelf temperatures support a history of ice-shelf thickening

Nature, 1979
The ice sheet in West Antarctica is grounded on a sub-sea level basin in the Antarctic continental shelf. At the seaward margins, where ice thicknesses are reduced sufficiently to attain neutral bouyancy, floating ice shelves form. The two largest are the Ross and Ronne ice shelves (Fig. 1).
