Assessing the Effectiveness of in-situ Active Warming Combined With Open Top Chambers to Study Plant Responses to Climate Change

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Temperature manipulation experiments are an effective way for testing plant responses to future climate conditions, especially for predicting shifts in plant phenological events.

Modeling chemistry in and above snow at Summit, Greenland – Part 2: Impact of snowpack chemistry on the oxidation capacity of the boundary layer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The chemical composition of the boundary layer in snow covered regions is impacted by chemistry in the snowpack via uptake, processing, and emission of atmospheric trace gases.

Solar irradiance models and measurements: a comparison in the 220 nm to 240 nm wavelength band

open access: yes, 2011
Solar irradiance models that assume solar irradiance variations to be due to changes in the solar surface magnetic flux have been successfully used to reconstruct total solar irradiance on rotational as well as cyclical and secular time scales. Modelling

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

open access: yesBusiness 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.

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

open access: yesChemie 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.

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 ...

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

open access: yesThe 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

Physics of Skiing: The Ideal-Carving Equation and Its Applications

open access: yes, 2003
Ideal carving occurs when a snowboarder or skier, equipped with a snowboard or carving skis, describes a perfect carved turn in which the edges of the ski alone, not the ski surface, describe the trajectory followed by the skier, without any slipping or ...

Studying interspecific population synchrony: current status and future perspectives

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Interspecific population synchrony, or co‐fluctuations in the population dynamics and demographic parameters of different species, is an important ecological phenomenon with major implications for the stability of communities and ecosystems. It is also central in the context of biodiversity loss, as interspecific synchrony can influence how ecological ...

Snow effects on brash ice and level ice growth

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
Brash ice formation and accumulation occur at a faster rate in ship channels, harbours and turning areas compared to the surrounding level ice. Accurate prediction of brash ice thickness plays an important role in addressing operational challenges and ...
