Radio Echo Sounding of Horizontal Layers in Ice [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 1973
Radio echo-sounding surveys of Antarctica and Greenland have revealed extensive layering within the ice. Formulae for the effective reflection coefficient, when viewed by a pulsed radar, are derived for isolated or multiple randomly spaced layers.

Bioinspired Shape‐Memory Hook Fasteners With Programmable Interlocking and Silent Release

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Bioinspired hook fasteners made from epoxy shape‐memory polymers are shown to switch between strong, secure attachment and gentle, silent release when heated. By combining programmable geometry and material response, these adaptive fasteners outperform commercial systems in strength and noise control, enabling new solutions for robotics, medical ...

Airborne UHF Radio Echo-Sounding of Three Yukon Glaciers [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 1980
AbstractA high-resolution radio echo-sounder operating at a frequency of 840 MHz has been developed for airborne sounding of small and medium-sized polar glaciers and ice caps. The sounder uses a compact,, high-gain antenna which suppresses valley-wall echoes and simplifies operation from light aircraft, Successful field trials were carried out on ...

Understanding and Optimizing Li Substitution in P2‐Type Sodium Layered Oxides for Sodium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work explores Li‐substituted P2 layered oxides for Na‐ion batteries by crystallographic and electrochemical studies. The effect of lithium on superstructure orderings, on phase transitions during synthesis and electrochemical cycling and on the interplay of O‐ versus TM‐redox is revealed via various advanced techniques, including semi‐simultaneous

Radio-echo Sounding at the Mittivakkat Gletscher, Southeast Greenland [PDF]

Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 1999
Profiles along sounding lines and maps are presented of the glacier surface, bottom topography, and ice thickness of Mittivakkat Gletscher. The maps are the result of the use of monopulse radio-echo sounding of ice thickness in about 450 points along profiles across the glacier.

NanoMOF‐Based Multilevel Anti‐Counterfeiting by a Combination of Visible and Invisible Photoluminescence and Conductivity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents novel anti‐counterfeiting tags with multilevel security features that utilize additional disguise features. They combine luminescent nanosized Ln‐MOFs with conductive polymers to multifunctional mixed‐matrix membranes and powder composites. The materials exhibit visible/NIR emission and matrix‐based conductivity even as black bodies.

Location of a new ice core site at Talos Dome (East Antarctica)

Annals of Geophysics, 2006
In the frame of glaciology and palaeoclimate research, Talos Dome (72°48lS; 159°06lE), an ice dome on the East Antarctic plateau, represents the new selected site for a new deep ice core drilling. The increasing interest in this region is due to the fact
