SNOWMIP2: An evaluation of forest snow process simulation [PDF]

, 2009
The Northern Hemisphere has large areas that are forested and seasonally snow covered. Compared with open areas, forest canopies strongly influence interactions between the atmosphere and snow on the ground by sheltering the snow from wind and solar ...

MIRACLE URBANIZATION: Spatial Production and Political Legitimation in the Sochi 2014 and Beijing 2022 Olympics

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract From desert ski resorts to subtropical Winter Games, there is a global proliferation of ‘mission‐impossible’ mega‐projects. The prevailing frameworks of city branding and urban entrepreneurism fail to explain the political logics behind these seemingly irrational projects.

Micrometeorological processes driving snow ablation in an Alpine catchment [PDF]

, 2011
Mountain snow covers typically become patchy over the course of a melting season. The snow pattern during melt is mainly governed by the end of winter snow depth distribution and the local energy balance.

AlpIce‐1: a database of geochronological and geomorphological constraints on Alps‐wide palaeoglacier fluctuations between the Last Glacial Maximum and the Holocene

Boreas, EarlyView.
The AlpIce‐1 database is the first compilation of published geomorphological and geochronological markers constraining build‐up, culmination and decay of glaciers from the Last Glacial Maximum through the Holocene across the entire European Alps. AlpIce‐1 integrates more than 4200 surface‐exposure and radiocarbon ages, homogenized, quality controlled ...

Fine‐Scale Factors Affecting the Abundance and Thermal Sensitivity of Nonnative Brook Trout in Coldwater Rocky Mountain Streams

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) is a globally distributed nonnative species that threatens native salmonids in coldwater streams. Understanding the factors regulating Brook Trout densities in coldwater refugia is critical to effective management, so we investigated (a) fine‐scale drivers of Brook Trout abundance and (b) factors ...

Thermal history, collisional history, and structure of the CK‐chondrite parent body

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Major chondrite groups (H, L, LL, R, EH, EL, CK) with some members of petrologic type 5 and 6 also have some members of types 3 and 4; they do not have members of type 1 or 2. Their parent bodies had onion‐shell structures and were internally heated by the decay of 26Al.

Development of methods for spawning, fertilization, larval husbandry, and settlement in the temperate coral Astrangia poculata

Frontiers in Marine Science
The temperate coral Astrangia poculata has recently emerged as a useful experimental organism for studying symbiosis, organism-environment interactions, and embryonic development.

‘Chrystalline Talk’: Thomas Browne's Poetics of Concretion and Mineral Plain Style

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article charts the figuration, both material and rhetorical, of mineral bodies in early modern natural philosophy, paying particular attention to the second book of Thomas Browne's Pseudodoxia Epidemica (1646). It argues that concretions (stony calculi and crystals formed through the aggregation of physical matter) make manifest a mineral

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 623-644, October/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

On the saltation of fresh snow in a wind tunnel: profile characterization and single particle statistics [PDF]

, 2008
We present experimental results on the snow drift in a turbulent boundary layer over a flat fresh snow-covered surface. Vertical profiles of mass flux and of the distribution of particle diameters were obtained by means of a pair of Snow Particle ...
