Now you see it, now you don't: a case study of ephemeral snowpacks and soil moisture response in the Great Basin, USA [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2018
Ephemeral snowpacks, or those that persist for  <  60 continuous days, are challenging to observe and model because snow accumulation and ablation occur during the same season.

Greens in Regulation: Biodiversity Strategy Implementation Across the Golf Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although much of the business and biodiversity literature focuses on extractive industries, we turn our attention to the golf industry. Golf courses occupy millions of acres globally, yet biodiversity strategy implementation across the golf industry remains understudied.

Sustaining Circular Innovation Under Volatile Market Conditions: The Critical Role of Industry Platforms

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While industry platforms are widely recognized as enablers of circular innovation, we still know little about how they evolve to scale and sustain innovation as economic conditions tighten and circular economy funding schemes become more selective.

Five Decades of Research on Rape Myths and Victim Interpretation

Behavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past 5 decades of social science research, scholars have examined false narratives and beliefs associated with rape and sexual assault (often called “rape myths”). This scoping review employs an innovative technique to sample and describe a large cohort of scholarly articles that investigate sexual assault victim interpretation and ...

The source, quantity, and spatial distribution of interfacial water during glide-snow avalanche release: experimental evidence from field monitoring [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Glide-snow avalanches release at the soil–snow interface due to a loss friction which is suspected to be linked to interfacial water. Presently, the formation and distribution of the interfacial water are not well understood and glide-snow avalanches are

Physical Properties of Snow and Ice Particles.

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1991
Characteristic properties of snow and ice particles were reviewed and discussed in special reference to the formation, deformation due to destruction, sublimation or sintering, pulverization and fluidization. Collision and erosion phenomena by ice particles are also discussed.

Glide-snow avalanches: a mechanical, threshold-based release area model [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Glide-snow avalanches release at the ground–snow interface due to a loss in basal friction. They pose a threat to infrastructure because of the combination of unreliable mitigation measures, limited forecasting capabilities, and a lack of understanding ...

Development of a Mechanically Regenerating Desublimator for Freeze‐Drying Systems in the Food Industry

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Thermal defrosting limits desublimator efficiency in freeze‐drying. This review and case study compares thermal versus mechanical regeneration, links frost properties and external heat transfer to energy demand, and summarizes pilot‐scale scraping results enabling single‐unit, continuous lyophilization.
