Impact of Ross Gyre on surface circulation in the Amundsen Sea, Antarctica

Environmental Research Communications
The east limb of the Ross Gyre approaches the western Amundsen Sea, thereby exerting an influence on the surface circulation dynamics. This study investigates the impact of the zonal movement of the eastern boundary of the Ross Gyre on the surrounding ...

Reversal of Ross Sea shelf water freshening is linked to a persistent decline in Antarctic sea ice since the mid-2010s

Environmental Research Letters
Since the mid-2010s, a sharp rebound in dense shelf water (DSW) salinity has been observed in the Ross Sea, coinciding with a persistent decline in sea ice around Antarctica. Despite extensive scientific study and significant attention given to these two

An Unprecedented Sea Ice Retreat in the Weddell Sea Driving an Overall Decrease of the Antarctic Sea‐Ice Extent Over the 20th Century

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Sea‐ice extent is predicted to decrease in a warming climate. However, despite global warming over the past century, total Antarctic sea ice remained relatively stable from 1979 until 2015, before strongly melting.

Poly(Alkoxythiophene) Rod‐Coil Block Copolymers for Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We present the first synthesis of poly(3‐alkoxythiophene) rod‐coil block copolymers as a new architecture for OMIECs. Incorporating PEG and PLLA coils can enhance device performance beyond the homopolymer. The figure‐of‐merit depends uniquely on coil length.

Trends in the breeding population of Adélie penguins in the Ross Sea, 1981-2012: a coincidence of climate and resource extraction effects. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Measurements of the size of Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) colonies of the southern Ross Sea are among the longest biologic time series in the Antarctic. We present an assessment of recent annual variation and trends in abundance and growth rates of

Epitaxially Integrated Electro‐Optic KNbO3 Thin Films on Silicon

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate the first epitaxial integration of electro‐optic KNbO3 thin films on silicon using suboxide molecular‐beam epitaxy. Combining adsorption‐controlled molecular‐beam epitaxy, advanced characterization, and phase‐field modeling, we demonstrate phase‐pure crystalline films mirroring bulk crystals with robust Pockels response, enabling future ...

Substantial Contraction of Dense Shelf Water in the Ross Sea Under Future Climate Scenarios

Geophysical Research Letters
The Ross Sea in the Southern Ocean is a key region for the Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) production, primarily originating from the Dense Shelf Water (DSW) formed in polynyas.

Durability of Soft Pneumatic Actuators: A Review and Benchmarking Protocol

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Lack of durability is a key challenge hindering the broad scale adoption of soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) in automation industries. This review provides a comprehensive overview of existing research on SPA durability, introduces a standardized durability benchmarking protocol to consolidate the testing of SPAs, and outlines promising directions for ...
