Subsurface Investigations of Cryo‐Hydrogeological Features in a High Arctic Catchment Under Transition

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, the internal structure and seasonal variations of cryo‐hydrogeological features were investigated in the Fuglebekken catchment, located near the Polish Polar Station Hornsund in Svalbard. Over a few years, rising air temperatures and intensified water circulation have significantly altered the distribution, extent, and state of ...

Kinetic Theory of Transient Condensation and Evaporation at a Plane Surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 1971
The phenomenon of transient condensation onto, or evaporation from, a liquid sheet in contact with its pure vapor is treated from a kinetic theory viewpoint. The Maxwell moment method is used to formulate the detailed transient problem.

Critical Review of Brazil Disk Techniques for Tensile Strength Characterization With an Emphasis on High Explosive Materials

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mechanical properties are a critical performance metric for many high explosive (HE) materials and tensile strength properties are particularly important. Direct tensile measurements using dogbone shaped samples are the gold standard but they have the disadvantage that they are fairly large and require samples machined from billets.

The Coherent Flame Model for Turbulent Chemical Reactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
A description of the turbulent diffusion flame is proposed in which the flame structure is composed of a distribution of laminar diffusion flame elements, whose thickness is small in comparison with the large eddies.

Xanthatin‐13‐(Pyrrolidine‐2‐Carboxylic Acid), a Sesquiterpene Lactone Isolated From Burdock Leaf, Attenuated Aβ25‐35 Toxicity and Memory Deficits in a Pharmacological Mouse Model of Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a severe form of dementia, which occurrence increases with age and lifestyle conditions. It is characterized by amyloid protein accumulation forming senile plaques, hyperphosphorylated tau protein forming neurofibrillary tangles, neuroinflammation, and oxidative stress, leading to synapse loss and cell death ...

Rhyming in the cold: first evidence of soniferous fishes in the Southern Ocean

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The acoustic ecology of Southern Ocean fishes remains unknown due to a lack of dedicated acoustic research on the fishes of this ocean. Passive acoustic monitoring data were collected at the South African sub‐Antarctic Prince Edward Islands using an underwater acoustic recorder, and towed underwater Ski‐Monkey cameras were deployed to identify fish ...
