Volatile Relay Biosensing and Mobile Phone Imaging for Detection of Influenza Virus

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Detection of volatile organic compounds is performed via a coupled enzymatic assay with mobile phone detection of the signal. Specific application demonstrated herein is the detection of influenza virus, across multiple levels of biological complexity, up to patient‐derived samples.

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.

Ice stream formation

, 2021
<div>Ice streams are the arteries through which a large fraction of the ice lost from Antarctica is discharged. With the introduction of "higher order" mechanics, the representation of ice streams in ice sheet models appears to have become more robust, eliminating previously ubiquitous grid effects.

Bridging Polymer Brushes and Coatings Through Ultra‐Thick Growth by Surface‐Initiated Photoiniferter Polymerization

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Surface‐initiated photoiniferter‐mediated polymerization (SI‐PIMP) enables the controlled growth of UHMW polymer brushes with multi‐micrometer thicknesses, bridging conventional brushes and bulk‐like coatings. UHMW brushes are synthesized through a controlled/living process; they provide low friction and enhanced wear resistance under aqueous ...

Interpreting englacial layer deformation in the presence of complex ice flow history with synthetic radargrams

Annals of Glaciology, 2020
Fast ice flow on the Antarctic continent constitutes much of the mass loss from the ice sheet. However, geophysical methods struggle to constrain ice flow history at depth, or separate the signatures of topography, ice dynamics and basal conditions on ...

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.

Bacterial Cellulose‐Based Bilayer Passive Cooler for High‐Performance Radiative/Evaporative Cooling

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A sustainable bilayer passive cooler based on bacterial cellulose integrates radiative and evaporative cooling for efficient zero‐energy temperature reduction. The scalable, low‐carbon material shows strong potential for food preservation, low‐temperature storage, and cold‐chain logistics.

Water Organization and Hydration‐Dependent Hydroxide Transport in Anion Exchange Membranes (AEM)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hydroxide transport in anion exchange membranes is governed by the organization of water within the polymer rather than by hydration alone. A hydration‐window framework is presented to unify transport, swelling, and mechanical stability, providing guidance for designing durable membranes for fuel cells and other hydroxide‐based electrochemical ...
