Spatial mapping of dissolved methane using an in situ sensor in Puget Sound

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Release of methane, as gas bubbles or in the dissolved phase, from the seafloor has been observed in coastal waters (< 200 m) and deep ocean basins (> 1000 m). Methane dissolution within the water column affects the geochemistry of the surrounding water, leading to localized oxygen loss and potential escape to the atmosphere, particularly from

Compact Spectral Imaging: A Review of Miniaturized and Integrated Systems

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This review explores the rapid shift toward compact spectral imaging systems by examining four key design paradigms: Do‐It‐Yourself (DIY) platforms, freeform optics, filter‐on‐chip integration, and multifunctional metasurfaces. The discussion highlights critical applications in medicine, agriculture, and environmental monitoring, providing comparative ...

Cryptic Ice Wedge Networks in Holocene Peat, Yukon‐Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Yukon‐Kuskokwim Delta (YKD), covering ~75,000 km2 of Alaska's discontinuous permafrost zone, has a historic (1902–2023) mean annual air temperature of ~−1°C and was previously thought to lack ice wedge networks. However, our recent investigations near Bethel, Alaska, revealed numerous near‐surface ice wedges.

Dynamic fluvial systems and gravel progradation in the Himalayan foreland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Although the large-scale stratigraphy of many terrestrial foreland basins is punctuated by major episodes of gravel progradation, the relationships of such facies to hinterland tectonism and climate change are often unclear. Structural reentrants provide

Periglacial Vegetation‐Banked Terraces: A Global Survey

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Periglacial vegetation‐banked terraces (VBTs) are roughly parallel, step‐like landforms with bare treads and vegetated risers, where tread length (across‐slope) markedly exceeds tread width (downslope). Many follow the contour, but others dip off‐contour at angles of up to 40°.

How digitisation of herbaria reveals the botanical legacy of the First World War

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Digitisation of herbarium collections is bringing greater understanding to bear on the complexity of narratives relating to the First World War and its aftermath – scientific and societal. Plant collecting during the First World War was more widespread than previously understood, contributed to the psychological well‐being of those involved and ...

Evaluation of video evidence of possible ball lightning

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We analyze images of possible ball lightning that appeared less than 10 m from a video camera. The objects' velocity and estimated brightness all agree with typical eyewitness accounts of ball lightning. Though there is an alternative explanation that the objects were sparks from a power‐line arc, we describe analytical techniques that assist in ...

Out there and in here: design for blended scientific inquiry learning

open access: yes, 2010
One of the benefits of mobile technologies is to combine ‘the digital’ (e.g., data, information, photos) with ‘field’ experiences in novel ways that are contextualized by people’s current located activities.

Woody cover and geology as regional‐scale determinants of semi‐arid savanna stability

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Savannas are vital for global biodiversity and carbon storage, yet their responses to climate change and human activity remain uncertain. Using remote sensing time series and Bayesian Linear Models, we show that drought resistance and resilience vary regionally, shaped by complex interactions between geology, woody cover, fire regimes, past climate ...
