Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Freeze–thaw processes cause periglacial creep (otherwise known as solifluction) which forms solifluction lobes. These are lobate features characterized by a steep riser (front) and a smooth tread (body). Despite the widespread occurrence of these lobes, the controls on their morphometry remain poorly understood. Research into solifluction lobe

Computer Vision System as a Tool to Estimate Pork Marbling [PDF]
, 2017 Currently pork marbling is assessed subjectively in the industry, because of the limited methods and tools that are suitable for the industry. In this dissertation, we are devoted to develop a computer vision system for objective measurement of pork ...

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

Feature Article Computer- Generated Marbling Textures:
, 2008 A computer system for interactively creating marbling textures is built on the physical model of the traditional marbling process. The approach generates marbling designs as the result of color advection in the 2D flow fields obtained by numerically ...
