Atmosphere‐Snow Exchange Explains Surface Snow Isotope Variability

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022
AbstractThe climate signal imprinted in the snow isotopic composition allows to infer past climate variability from ice core stable water isotope records. The concurrent evolution of vapor and surface snow isotopic composition between precipitation events indicates that post‐depositional atmosphere‐snow humidity exchange influences the snow and hence ...

Quantitative assessment of masticatory muscles based on skull muscle attachment areas in Carnivora

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Masticatory muscles are composed of the temporalis, masseter, and pterygoid muscles in mammals. Each muscle has a different origin on the skull and insertion on the mandible; thus, all masticatory muscles contract in different directions. Collecting in vivo data and directly measuring the masticatory muscles anatomically in various Carnivora ...

Snow Particle Fragmentation Enhances Snow Sublimation

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Abstract. Fragmentation of snow particles, where dendritic snowflakes transform into spherical shapes upon impact with surface and other particles during drifting and blowing snow events, plays a critical role in shaping snow dynamics. This phenomenon is important because it influences the size distribution and concentration of snow particles ...

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...

Lessons from the scale-up of provider-administered and self-injection of DMPA-SC in Nigeria: a landscape assessment

BMC Women's Health
Background Nigeria is the seventh-most populous country in the world. Its high fertility rate and unmet need for family planning contribute to the increasing population size.

A rigorous approach to the specific surface area evolution in snow during temperature gradient metamorphism [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Despite being one of the most fundamental microstructural parameters of snow, the specific surface area (SSA) dynamics during temperature gradient metamorphism (TGM) have so far been addressed only within empirical modeling.

Framing National Education in Hong Kong: A frame analysis of power dynamics in stakeholders' competing narratives

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how national education in Hong Kong functions as a contested arena in which state and non‐state actors struggle over the meaning of citizenship, identity and schooling. Using inductive frame analysis of 319 news articles (2020–2025) from five Chinese‐ and English‐language outlets, it identifies diagnostic, prognostic and ...

Where Do We Fit? Reflections on Research Interview Practice, Project Design, and Interpretation**

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
What is special about historical research interviews in the history of science, technology, and medicine, and how do they compare to the tools of oral historians and social scientists? This essay reflects on three interview projects I have undertaken, each taking a distinct shape.
