Snow stratigraphic heterogeneity within ground-based passive microwave radiometer footprints: implications for emission modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Two-dimensional measurements of snowpack properties (stratigraphic layering, density, grain size and temperature) were used as inputs to the multi-layer Helsinki University of Technology (HUT) microwave emission model at a centimeter-scale horizontal ...

Improved workflow for customized ICESat-2 ATL06 elevations captures seasonal mountain snow depths at sub-kilometer scale [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Mountain snowpacks are a critical global water resource, providing freshwater to more than a billion people worldwide. Estimates of snow distribution across mountain watersheds are dependent on sparse in situ observations and spatio-temporally limited ...

Snow Depth Retrieval on Arctic Sea Ice Using Under-Ice Hyperspectral Radiation Measurements

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Radiation transmitted through sea ice and snow has an important impact on the energy partitioning at the atmosphere-ice-ocean interface. Snow depth and ice thickness are crucial in determining its temporal and spatial variations.

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

open access: yesBritish 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 ...

Snow Depth and its Response to Climate Change over the Qinghai-Xizang (Tibetan) Plateau in Recent 40 Years

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang
Based on the China snow depth time series data set and high resolution ground meteorological element driven dataset, this study analyzes the spatial and temporal variation of snow depth on the Qinghai-Xizang (Tibetan) Plateau by watershed and elevation ...

Object-based ensemble estimation of snow depth and snow water equivalent over multiple months in Sodankylä, Finland [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Snowpack characteristics such as snow depth and snow water equivalent (SWE) are widely studied in regions prone to heavy snowfall and long winters. These features are measured in the field via manual or automated observations and over larger spatial ...

From apex to base: Uncovering spatial metabolic adaptation in Antarctic mosses

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Antarctic mosses survive extreme cold, desiccation, UV exposure, and oxidative stress. We analyzed three species by separating apical, middle, and basal zones. Each zone showed distinct metabolite patterns and biological roles, revealing spatial metabolic specialization. The results suggest that whole‐plant survival depends on coordinated contributions

A combined multi-source data and deep learning approach for retrieving snow depth on Antarctic Sea ice during the melting season

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth
Snow on the Antarctic sea ice is a crucial component of the cryosphere. In response to the dynamic and highly heterogeneous Antarctic snow during the sea ice melting season, this study employed a combined multi-source data and deep learning method to ...

From Green Governance to Biodiversity Strategy: The Role of Environmentally Experienced Directors in Chinese Firms

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how directors with environmental protection (EP) backgrounds influence corporate biodiversity concern (BIO) among Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2008 to 2023. Drawing on Upper Echelons Theory, we argue that directors' environmental expertise shapes firms' biodiversity strategies.
