Pluto’s Surface Mapping Using Unsupervised Learning from Near-infrared Observations of LEISA/Ralph
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 We map the surface of Pluto using an unsupervised machine-learning technique using the near-infrared observations of the LEISA/Ralph instrument on board NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft.

Interfacial Ice Density Fluctuations Inform Surface Ice-Philicity
The Journal of Physical Chemistry BThe propensity of a surface to nucleate ice or bind to ice is governed by its ice-philicity — its relative preference for ice over liquid water. However, the relationship between the features of a surface and its ice-philicity is not well understood, and for surfaces with chemical or topographical heterogeneity, such as proteins, their ice-philicity is

Does sea ice influence Greenland ice sheet surface-melt?
Environmental Research Letters, 2009 Recent decreases in Arctic sea ice and increases in Greenland ice sheet surface-melt may have global impacts, but the interactions between these two processes are unknown. Using microwave satellite data, we explore the spatial and temporal covariance of sea ice extent and ice sheet surface-melt around Greenland from 1979 to 2007. Significant covariance

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

The Challenge of Icy Sample Return Begins With Artemis
Geophysical Research LettersThroughout the Solar System, volatiles are found as solid ices. Returning ices to Earth for scientific analysis is critical to understanding the formation of a Solar System that bears life.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

CO diffusion and desorption kinetics in CO$_2$ ices
, 2017 Diffusion of species in icy dust grain mantles is a fundamental process that shapes the chemistry of interstellar regions; yet measurements of diffusion in interstellar ice analogs are scarce.

The Penetration of Solar Radiation into Carbon Dioxide Ice [PDF]
, 2018 Icy surfaces behave differently to rocky or regolith‐covered surfaces in response to irradiation. A key factor is the ability of visible light to penetrate partially into the subsurface.
