Boosting Bifacial Output Power of Ag‐CIGS Solar Cells by Optimizing ITO Back‐Contact Thickness for Tandem Applications

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Optimized ITO back contact with pre‐Ga supply growth and Ag incorporation suppresses GaOx formation and interface recombination in bifacial CIGS solar cells. The devices achieve 17.25% front and 5.77% rear efficiency, delivering record bifacial power density up to 32.26 mW cm−2 in 4T perovskite/CIGS tandem architectures under enhanced albedo ...

An Influence of a Tree on Snow Depth

open access: yesJournal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 1962
Snow depth was measured in two ways, one with a stick and the other with scales attached to deciduous trees, along the snow courses in the upper region of Tadami river, 1957. It was found that snow depth was less at within the distance of one to two meters from the root of a tree than at the further distance from it and that the difference was greater ...

On the Snow Scale for Measuring Maximum Snow Depth

open access: yesJournal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice, 1968
A snow scale for measuring the maximum depth of accumulated snow in remote regions was developed.The snow scale consists of a wooden pole with 10 cm aluminium pins of 3 mm in diameter driven into the pole at 10 cm intervals on both sides of the pole. The pin is bent downward by the settling force of snow when it is covered with new snow of about 10 cm ...

Permeability of granite from a shallow buried mountain pipe gallery tunnel under unloading confining pressure

open access: yesDeep 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 ...

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 ...

Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.

Distribution of snow depth variability

open access: yesFrontiers of Earth Science, 2018
Snow depth is the easiest snowpack property to measure in the field and is used to estimate the distribution of snow for quantifying snow storage. Often the mean of three snow depth measurements is used to represent snow depth at a location. This location is used as a proxy for an area, typically a digital elevation model (DEM) or remotely sensed pixel.

Faster growing and more functionally diverse: global change alters functional trait composition of mountain plant communities in the European Alps

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding how global change reshapes mountain plant communities is essential for predicting biodiversity and ecosystem function in a warming world. Using resurvey data from over 1400 non‐forest vegetation plots across the European Alps, we show that community‐weighted means of key functional traits capturing important dimensions of plant ecological
