Wintertime Supraglacial Lake Drainage Cascade Triggers Large‐Scale Ice Flow Response in Greenland
Surface melt forces summertime ice‐flow accelerations on glaciers and ice sheets. Here, we show that large meltwater‐forced accelerations also occur during wintertime in Greenland.

Volume, Peak discharges and Froude Number of Debris-Flow Surges: 10 Years of Monitoring on the Réal Torrent (France) [PDF]
This work presents a summary of data on debris-flow monitoring stations focusing on the surge scale rather than full-scale debris-flow event (several fronts and surges with intermediate diluted flows).

Wide-Swath Altimetric Satellite Data Assimilation With Correlated-Error Reduction
For decades now, satellite altimetric observations have been successfully integrated in numerical oceanographic models using data assimilation (DA). So far, sea surface height (SSH) data were provided by one-dimensional nadir altimeters.

Assessment of sub-shelf melting parameterisations using the ocean–ice-sheet coupled model NEMO(v3.6)–Elmer/Ice(v8.3) [PDF]
Oceanic melting beneath ice shelves is the main driver of the current mass loss of the Antarctic ice sheet and is mostly parameterised in stand-alone ice-sheet modelling. Parameterisations are crude representations of reality, and their response to ocean

A gradual change is more likely to have caused the Mid-Pleistocene Transition than an abrupt event
A gradual change in the climate system such as a decrease in atmospheric carbon dioxide is more likely to have caused the Mid-Pleistocene Transition than an abrupt event, suggest model simulations constrained by a global ice volume reconstruction over ...

Targeting of immunoglobulin E (IgE) represents an interesting approach for the treatment of allergic disorders. A high-affinity monoclonal anti-IgE antibody, ligelizumab, has recently been developed to overcome some of the limitations associated with the

Many contaminants of agricultural origin are released into rural environments, particularly at the soil surface. Their fate has been extensively investigated in repacked soils, but only few studies have addressed their transport in structurally preserved

Origins and clonal convergence of gastrointestinal IgE+ B cells in human peanut allergy
Peanut-allergic patient GI tissues implicate local IgE class-switching and common IgH genetic rearrangements in pathogenesis. Peanuts in the gut Peanut allergy affects millions of children and adults worldwide, and peripheral blood IgE+ B cells have been

Quantification of different flow components in a high-altitude glacierized catchment (Dudh Koshi, Himalaya): some cryospheric-related issues [PDF]
In a context of climate change and water demand growth, understanding the origin of water flows in the Himalayas is a key issue for assessing the current and future water resource availability and planning the future uses of water in downstream regions.

A nonlinear, nondispersive energy balance for surfzone waves: infragravity wave dynamics on a sloping beach [PDF]
A fully nonlinear non-dispersive energy balance for surfzone waves is derived based on the nonlinear shallow water equations (NLSWE) to study the nearshore dynamics of infragravity (IG) waves. Based on simulations of waves on a relatively moderate and mild beach slope with a non-hydrostatic wave-flow model (SWASH), the new theory shows that spatial ...
