Modeling ice‐ocean interaction in ice‐shelf crevasses [PDF]
AbstractOcean freezing within ice‐shelf basal crevasses could potentially act as a stabilizing influence on ice shelves; however, ice‐ocean interaction and ocean dynamics within these crevasses are as yet poorly understood. To this end, an idealized 2‐D model of an ice‐shelf basal crevasse has been developed using Fluidity, a finite‐element ocean model

Ocean wave blocking by periodic surface rolls fortifies Arctic ice shelves
The Ward Hunt and Milne ice shelves are the present-day remnants of a much larger ice shelf that once fringed the coast of Ellesmere Island, Canada. These ice shelves possess a unique surface morphology consisting of wave-like rolls that run parallel to ...

This study developed 3D‐printable THA‐Col microgels for delivering BMP‐7 cmRNA. The key result is that hMSCs transfected on the biomaterials showed BMP‐7 secretion levels comparable to pre‐transfected hMSCs, therefore introducing a cmRNA‐activated matrix to promote bone healing.

Ice-shelf Response to Ice-stream Discharge Fluctuations: II. Ideal Rectangular Ice Shelf [PDF]
AbstractAbstract. Ice-shelf thickness and velocity anomalies resulting from ice-stream discharge fluctuations are calculated for an ideal ice shelf fed by a single ice stream and confined within a rectangular coastal geometry. Ice-shelf response to periodic forcing is found to be linear (thickness and velocity anomalies oscillate at the forcing ...

Biomimetic Cell Membrane‐Coated Scaffolds for Enhanced Tissue Regeneration
This review examines the development and use of cell membrane‐coated scaffolds in tissue engineering. Bioinspired phospholipid and glycocalyx coatings enhance anti‐fouling, anti‐thrombogenic, and selective molecular recognition properties. Native cell membrane coatings further support cell‐specific interactions, immune modulation, and reduced bacterial

Influence of basal melting on ice surface fracture and glacier retreat: A case study at Pine Island Glacier [PDF]
Pine Island Glacier (PIG) is one of the most dynamic ice streams in West Antarctica, with significant basal melting and ice shelf retreat profoundly influencing its behavior.

Decadal Variability of Ice‐Shelf Melting in the Amundsen Sea Driven by Sea‐Ice Freshwater Fluxes
The ice streams flowing into the Amundsen Sea, West Antarctica, are losing mass due to changes in oceanic basal melting of their floating ice shelves. Rapid ice‐shelf melting is sustained by the delivery of warm Circumpolar Deep Water to the ice‐shelf ...

A novel microphysiological system that can mimic sterile or non‐sterile injury demonstrates that macrophage‐derived extracellular vesicles modulate neutrophil migratory responses to these different wound states. The model showed that resolution of inflammation through neutrophil reverse migration is driven by IL‐8 derived from extracellular vesicles ...
