Effectiveness of Scientific Literacy and Communication E‐Modules in a Molecular Biology Course: A Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In previous work, we described the development and implementation of new pedagogical practices aimed at enhancing literacy, critical thinking, and communication skills development in a third‐year undergraduate molecular biology course. The online nature and large size of the course presented challenges regarding student engagement and access ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

A New Eulerian Iceberg Module for Climate Studies

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Icebergs modulate the effective location of freshwater input from ice sheets into the ocean and therefore play an important role for the climate, especially during times of increased ice discharge (e.g., Heinrich events). None of the models participating

Tracking ablation and movement of icebergs with time-lapse photography at an alpine proglacial lake in Austria

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research
Little is known about the evolution and dynamics of icebergs in alpine lakes. We analyzed the movement and ablation patterns of icebergs at an ice-contact lake at Pasterze Glacier, Austria, using time-lapse images.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Seasonal Variations in Iceberg Freshwater Flux in Sermilik Fjord, Southeast Greenland From Sentinel‐2 Imagery

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
Iceberg discharge is estimated to account for up to 50% of the freshwater flux delivered to glacial fjords. The amount, timing, and location of iceberg melting impacts fjord‐water circulation and heat budget, with implications for glacier dynamics ...

Modelled dynamics of floating and grounded icebergs, with application to the Amundsen Sea [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Icebergs that ground on the submarine Bear Ridge in the Amundsen Sea are known to block the drift of sea ice, playing a crucial role in maintaining shelf sea ocean conditions.
