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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

A general treatment of snow microstructure exemplified by an improved relation for thermal conductivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Finding relevant microstructural parameters beyond density is a longstanding problem which hinders the formulation of accurate parameterizations of physical properties of snow.

Studies on the characteristics of snow particles affecting new snow density

open access: yesJournal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 2005
二重防風ネット内で堆積した乾き新積雪の密度に対する平均気温および平均降水強度の影響に加えて,降雪粒子の卓越結晶形,水平粒度分布,霰寄与率(質量フラックスに占める霰の割合),雪面への運動エネルギーフラックスおよび粒子投映像の円形度との関係を解析した.その結果,新積雪密度への影響として,卓越結晶と平均降水強度の他に,雲粒付樹枝では運動エネルギーフラックスとの相関が大きかった.また,雲粒付立体樹枝では水平粒度分布,円形度,霰寄与率および運動エネルギーフラックスの影響も比較的顕著にみられた.さらに,卓越結晶形の霰(霰寄与率≧70%)では,水平粒度分布の影響が他の因子より大きかった.

The Shape and Density Evolution of Snow Aggregates [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 2019
Abstract Snow aggregates evolve into a variety of observed shapes and densities. Despite this diversity, models and observational studies employ fractal or Euclidean geometric measures that are assumed universal for all aggregates. This work therefore seeks to improve understanding and representation of snow aggregate geometry and its ...

Interpreting a Legacy Fossil Assemblage Excavated From Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), GunaiKurnai Aboriginal Country, Snowy River National Park, Southeastern Australia

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper we report on faunal remains recovered from a legacy archaeological excavation undertaken in the rockshelter entrance of Waribruk (New Guinea II Cave), a GunaiKurnai site located on the west bank of the Snowy River, East Gippsland, southeastern Australia.

Étude nivométrique sur le bassin de la rivière Sainte-Anne de Beaupré [PDF]

open access: yes, 1961
During the winter 1959-60, the authors have studied various characteristics of the snow cover in the basin of the river Ste. Anne de Beaupré. They observed that the density of snow always varied between 2.0 and 2.5.

Parameterizations of Snow Cover, Snow Albedo and Snow Density in Land Surface Models: A Comparative Review

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences, 2023
AbstractSnow plays a vital role in the interaction between land and atmosphere in the state-of-the-art land surface models (LSMs) and the real world. While snow plays a crucial role as a boundary condition in meteorological applications and serves as a vital water resource in certain regions, the acquisition of its observational data poses significant ...

Opposing consensus science through scholarly practices: The role of claims maintenance

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how three US‐based communities who oppose consensus science produce and disseminate scholarly‐like artifacts: pro‐life activists, Young Earth Creationists, and Anthropogenic Climate Crisis skeptics. Prior research shows that industry‐ or church‐backed advocacy campaigns often generate claims supported by these communities ...

Automated Calibration of a Snow‐On‐Sea‐Ice Model

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
Snow on Arctic sea ice has many, contrasting effects on ice thickness and extent. Furthermore, estimates of snow depth on Arctic sea ice are a key input for ice thickness estimates from satellite altimeters such as ICESat‐2.

A stratification model of surface snow at Dome Fuji Station, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A stratification model of surface snow on the ice sheet, which includes snow density evolution, is proposed. Using the temperature profile in the surface snow layer obtained at Dome Fuji Station, Antarctica, snow density evolution under various ...
