Emergence of the Shackleton Range from beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet due to glacial erosion [PDF]

, 2014
This paper explores the long-term evolution of a subglacial fjord landscape in the Shackleton Range, Antarctica. We propose that prolonged ice-sheet erosion across a passive continental margin caused troughs to deepen and lower the surrounding ice-sheet ...

West Antarctic Ice Streams [PDF]

, 1977
Solar heat is the acknowledged driving force for climatic change. However, ice sheets are also capable of causing climatic change. This property of ice sheets derives from the facts that ice and rock are crystalline whereas the oceans and atmosphere are ...

Insights into ice stream dynamics through modelling their response to tidal forcing [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2014
The tidal forcing of ice streams at their ocean boundary can serve as a natural experiment to gain an insight into their dynamics and constrain the basal sliding law.

Advancements in Hypersaline Wastewater Treatment: The Promise of Quasi‐Liquid Surfaces to Reduce Salt Scaling

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Durable quasi‐liquid polymer brush surfaces provide an anti‐scaling strategy for hypersaline brine evaporation and zero‐liquid‐discharge desalination. The smooth, liquid‐like QLS interface suppresses substrate‐side salt nucleation, promotes compact crystallization and dewetting, reduces crystal–surface contact area, and enables low‐adhesion salt ...

Reconstructing ice dynamics in the central sector of the last British-Irish Ice Sheet [PDF]

, 2010
The central sector (NW England and Scottish borders) of the last British-Irish Ice Sheet exhibits a palimpsest glacial geological and geomorphological signature characteristic of multi-phase ice flow and ice-marginal fluctuations. Despite its influential

Ribbed bedforms on palaeo-ice stream beds resemble regular patterns of basal shear stress (‘traction ribs’) inferred from modern ice streams [PDF]

, 2016
Rapidly-flowing ice streams are an important mechanism through which ice sheets lose mass, and much work has been focused on elucidating the processes that increase or decrease their velocity.

Morphology and distribution of lakes under the Laurentide Ice Sheet: implications for ice flow dynamics

Boreas
This study examines the distribution and morphology of lakes under the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) to investigate relationships with ice flow velocity, bedrock and basal thermal regime.

Evidence that seismic anisotropy captures upstream palaeo-ice fabric: Implications on present-day deformation at Whillans Ice Stream, Antarctica

Journal of Glaciology
Understanding deformation and slip at ice streams, which are responsible for 90% of Antarctic ice loss, are vital for accurately modelling large-scale ice flow. Ice crystal orientation fabric (COF) has a first-order effect on ice stream deformation.

Chaotic fluctuations in Greenland ice streams limit predictability of ice sheet collapse [PDF]

Earth System Dynamics
The future evolution of the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) depends on the rate and intensity of climate change and can transition to a mostly ice-free state under strong enough global warming.

Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...
