Assessing the Vulnerability of an Inuit Archaeological Site in a Changing Periglacial Environment: A Novel Multimethod Geophysical Approach in Arctic Geoarchaeology

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With northern regions warming at twice the global rate, assessing the state of archaeological sites in these areas is critically important. In this study, we used a multimethod geophysical approach (ERT, GPR, and EMI) to characterize the current geocryological conditions of an Inuit archaeological site on South Aulatsivik Island (Labrador ...

Potential of organogel‐based colloidal hydrogels for new cosmetic formulations

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Colloidal hydrogels are formed by combining anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants with two oils of cosmetic interest: sweet almond oil and phytosqualane. These systems are obtained through hot emulsification followed by cooling, which leads to the aggregation of gel‐like particles.
