Primary production in polar waters: relation to nutrient availability

open access: yes, 1991
Temperature, light and dissolved nutrients are considered the “master” abiotic properties controlling primary production in the ocean. Each of these properties, in turn, is influenced by water column stability Sustained research over the past several ...

Semantic Modeling in Materials Science and Engineering With Platform MaterialDigital Core Ontology 3.0

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The community‐driven Platform MaterialDigital Core Ontology (PMDco) 3.0 is introduced as a Basic Formal Ontology‐aligned semantic backbone for the processing–structure–properties paradigm in Materials Science and Engineering. Modular engineering, automated releases, and validation workflows are highlighted and key semantic patterns for materials ...

Polar bear predation on ringed seals in the fast-ice of Hornsund, Svalbard

open access: yes, 1986
Polar bear hunting success on ringed seals in subnivean lairs and basking on the fast ice, was studied in Hornsund, Svalbard. A few bears were observed while actually hunting, but in most cases bear tracks were followed by snowmobile to determine the ...

Polar vortex weakening and its impact on surface temperature in recent decades

open access: yes
The stratospheric polar vortex (SPV) weakening is linked to surface circulation changes. This study employs statistical analysis using reanalysis data to compare the anomalous SPV behaviour in the Northern (NH) and Southern (SH) hemispheres and its ...

Review of Into the ice: the history of Norway and the polar regions, by Einar-Arne Drivenes & Harald Dag Jølle

open access: yes, 2008
How timely for a deep and engaging analysis of Norway’s polar history to be available in English, as climate change, global warming and competition for scarce resources are pressing issues among academics, in global society and in the far ...

Controlling Grain Growth in Powder Bed Fusion of Yttria‐Stabilized Zirconia Using Femtosecond Lasers: Challenges and Methodological Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Binder‐free laser powder bed fusion of 8YSZ with a femtosecond laser is used to map process windows linking scan strategy, heat accumulation, and grain growth. Time‐resolved thermography and simulations reveal thermal regimes that enable continuous, vitrified, and fine‐grained 8YSZ surface layers without absorptive additives and demonstrate ...

BOOK REVIEW: Review of Tourism and change in polar regions: climate, environment and experience and Cruise tourism in polar regions: promoting environmental and social sustainability?

open access: yes, 2011
These two edited volumes, which cover much of the same ground, both begin from a common premise: polar tourism, as its been experienced by wealthy travellers for over a century, has a very definite shelf life.

Polar coded cooperative with Plotkin construction and quasi-uniform puncturing based on MIMO antennas in half duplex wireless relay network

open access: yesETRI Journal
Recently, polar code has attracted the attention of many scholars and has been developed as a code technology in coded-cooperative communication. We pro-pose a polar code scheme based on Plotkin structure and quasi-uniform punching (PC-QUP).

Design of a Multistable Finger Prosthesis with Programmable Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This research article shows the development of a multistable programmble metamaterial for the use as a finger prosthesis. The material was designed on different hierarchical levels where the influence of geometrical parameters and combination of mechanical elements was explored.
