Early-stage interaction between settlement and temperature-gradient metamorphism
Journal of Glaciology, 2017 Snow metamorphism and settlement change the microstructure of a snowpack simultaneously. Past experiments investigated snow deformation under isothermal conditions. In nature, temperature gradient metamorphism and settlement often occur together.

Response of snowpack to +2°C global warming in Hokkaido, Japan
Journal of Glaciology, 2020 The response of snowpack to a +2°C global warming relative to the present climate was estimated in Hokkaido, Japan, using a physical snowpack model driven by dynamically downscaled (DDS) data, after model evaluation.

Improving the snow physics of WEB-DHM and its point evaluation at the SnowMIP sites [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2010 In this study, the snow physics of a distributed biosphere hydrological model, referred to as the Water and Energy Budget based Distributed Hydrological Model (WEB-DHM) is significantly improved by incorporating the three-layer physically based energy ...

Modelling the transition from grain-boundary sliding to power-law creep in dry snow densification
Journal of Glaciology, 2022 This paper presents a physics-based macroscale model for the densification of dry snow which provides for a smooth transition between densification by grain-boundary sliding (stage 1) and densification by power-law creep (stage 2).

Effect of horizontal divergence on estimates of firn-air content
Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Ice-sheet mass-balance estimates derived from repeat satellite-altimetry observations require accurate calculation of spatiotemporal variability in firn-air content (FAC).

Annals of Glaciology, 2018 Full snow-pit observations were performed on a monthly basis over ten winter seasons from 1995 to 2004, at 15 study plots spaced at 100 m elevation intervals (1300–2700 m a.s.l.) in the mountainous forest of the Japanese Central Alps.

Initial snow-ice formation on a laboratory scale
Annals of Glaciology, 2023 Snow ice (SI) forms from freezing wet snow, known as slush, and contributes to the thickness of level and brash ice. However, the mechanism of snow-slush-snow ice transformation has not been extensively investigated to date, despite the difference in the

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.While cysteine is widely employed as a nucleophilic handle for peptide modification, the electrophilicity of the oxidized form, cystine, is rarely exploited. This study describes a mild, photochemical coupling of sulfinate salts with peptide disulfides.
