Development of Global Snow Cover—Trends from 23 Years of Global SnowPack
Earth, 2022 Globally, the seasonal snow cover is the areal largest, the most short-lived and the most variable part of the cryosphere. Remote sensing proved to be a reliable tool to investigate their short-term variations worldwide.

Using near‐surface ground temperature data to derive snow insulation and melt indices for mountain permafrost applications [PDF]
, 2017 The timing and duration of snow cover in areas of mountain permafrost affect the ground thermal regime by thermally insulating the ground from the atmosphere and modifying the radiation balance at the surface.

Surface movement and cascade processes on debris cones in temperate high mountain (Picos de Europa, northern Spain) [PDF]
, 2019 Producción CientíficaDebris talus is a very common landform in the temperate high mountain, so much so that it is the most representative of the periglacial and nival processes.

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

Regime of snow cover in the Baikal region under the climate change
Лëд и снег, 2017 Spatial and temporal variability of dates of snow cover setting-up and loss (dates of the snow cover appearance and disappearance, and formation and destruction of stable snow cover) and duration of stable snow occurrence on a territory of the Baikal ...

Climate Change Risks and Customer Concentration: Evidence From US‐Listed Firms
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While prior studies have investigated climate risks in supply chains, customer ESG pressures, and shared climate exposure, this paper is, to the best of our knowledge, the first to provide direct empirical evidence on the relationship between climate change risks and firms' customer concentration.

Using a Gridded Global Dataset to Characterize Regional Hydroclimate in Central Chile [PDF]
, 2013 Central Chile is facing dramatic projections of climate change, with a consensus for declining precipitation, negatively affecting hydropower generation and irrigated agriculture. Rising from sea level to 6000 m within a distance of 200 km, precipitation

Science of The Total Environment, 2023 Seasonal snow cover duration is the net result from many processes acting on snow fallen on the Earth's surface. Several of these processes feed back into the atmosphere-cryosphere system causing non-linear interactions. The timing of snow retreat is of essential importance, but the duration of snow cover has large spatiotemporal variabilities. However,

Greens in Regulation: Biodiversity Strategy Implementation Across the Golf Industry
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although much of the business and biodiversity literature focuses on extractive industries, we turn our attention to the golf industry. Golf courses occupy millions of acres globally, yet biodiversity strategy implementation across the golf industry remains understudied.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Triaxial compression tests under unloading confining pressure conditions were conducted to systematically analyze the permeability behavior of granite retrieved from the different classification surrounding rocks. Abstract The rock mass within mountain tunnels undergoes complex changes in permeability, strength, and deformation during tunneling ...
