Late Holocene history of the Shkhelda Glacier, Northern Caucasus, according to remote sensing, dendrochronology and cosmogenic (10Be) dating of moraines

open access: yesЛëд и снег
The position of the Shkhelda valley glacier front (Elbrus region, 43.18N, 42.64 E) for the period from the 1880s to 2022 was reconstructed based on interpretation of aerial and satellite images and old maps.

Studies of the Belukha glacier plexus in the context of global glacio-climatic monitoring (on the 100th anniversary of the first ascent of the Belukha Mountain)

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
The Belukha Mountain is the highest peak of the Altai. On July 26 (7th August in the new time scale) of 1914 the brothers Boris and Mikhail Tronov discovered the mountain and were the first people to climb it. The Tronov Glacier is named after them.

Genome‐wide evolutionary response of European oaks during the Anthropocene

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2022
The pace of tree microevolution during Anthropocene warming is largely unknown. We used a retrospective approach to monitor genomic changes in oak trees since the Little Ice Age (LIA).

The Little Ice Age between science and art

open access: yesEQA
The Little Ice Age was a period of global cooling placed between the 14th and 19th centuries, associated with the advance of glaciers in major mountain ranges and the freezing of lakes, rivers and seas, especially in the Northern Hemisphere. This period,

A review of the Little Ice Age in Andalusia (Southern Spain): results and research challenges

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2018
Andalusia (southern Spain) is a region of special climatic interest due to its geographical location, hydrological and orographical characteristics. In this work a summary of different approaches to study the Little Ice Age in this region is presented ...

The Economic Impact of the Little Ice Age [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
We investigate by how much the Little Ice Age reduced the harvests on which pre-industrial Europeans relied for survival. We find that weather strongly affected crop yields, but can find little evidence that western Europe experienced long swings or structural breaks in climate.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Accelerating Glacier Area Loss Across the Andes Since the Little Ice Age

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Andean glaciers are losing mass rapidly but a centennial‐scale context to those rates is lacking. Here we show the extent of >5,500 glaciers during the Little Ice Age chronozone (LIA; c. 1,400 to c.

Touching the cold in the Little Ice Age

open access: yesLychnos
Climate change urges us to reconsider the very cold. Its natural manifestations – ice and snow – are today shrinking elements, and the gravity of melting glaciers and thawing polar regions is indeed deeply worrying for the planet as a whole.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...
