Disturbances in North American boreal forest and Arctic tundra: impacts, interactions, and responses
(IOP Publishing, 2022-10-20)<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Ecosystems in the North American Arctic-Boreal Zone (ABZ) experience a diverse set of disturbances associated with wildfire, permafrost dynamics, geomorphic processes, ... -
Integration of Remote Sensing and Offshore Geophysical Data for Monitoring the Short-Term Morphological Evolution of an Active Volcanic Flank: A Case Study from Stromboli Island
(MDPI, 2022-09-15)<jats:p>The Sciara del Fuoco (SdF) collapse scar at Stromboli is an active volcanic area affected by rapid morphological changes due to explosive/effusive eruptions and mass-wasting processes. The aim of this paper is to ... -
Out of phase Quaternary uplift-rate changes reveal normal fault interaction, implied by deformed marine palaeoshorelines
(Elsevier, 2022-11-01)We have mapped and constrained the timing of tectonically deformed uplifted Late Quaternary palaeoshorelines in the Messina Strait, southern Italy, an area above a subduction zone containing active normal faults. The ... -
Editorial: Plastics in the environment: Understanding impacts and identifying solutions, volume II
(Frontiers Media, 2022-10-05)Our first collection of Frontiers articles highlighted the broad diversity of environmental problems caused by the mismanagement of plastics in different settings, and the many challenges that scientists, managers, ... -
A multi-trophic marker approach reveals high feeding plasticity in Barents Sea under-ice fauna
(Elsevier BV, 2022-11)Microalgae growing within and attached to the bottom of Arctic sea ice (sympagic algae) can serve as a nutritious food resource for animals inhabiting the sea-ice water interface (under-ice fauna), particularly during the ... -
Anthropogenic contaminants in glacial environments II: Release and downstream consequences
(SAGE Publications, 2022-09-26)Anthropogenic contamination has been detected in glacial and proglacial environments around the globe. Through mechanisms of secondary release, these contaminants are finding their way into glacial hydrological systems ... -
Ecological consequences of historic moorland ‘improvement’
(Springer, 2022-09-25)Upland peatlands are nationally and internationally important habitats that can provide a range of ecosystem services, but many are considered degraded by human activities. On Exmoor, (South West England, UK) restoration ... -
Novel nuclear materials characterization workflows enabled by fs-laser milling
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2021-08)Research to support nuclear energy development faces many challenges. Understanding material microstructures is not only essential to predicting and understanding the in-service performance of materials used in nuclear ... -
Continuous-flow synthesis of mesoporous SBA-15
(Elsevier BV, 2022-01)Ordered mesoporous silicas are widely used in separation science and catalysis, however, their slow batch synthesis is a barrier to scale-up and new applications. SBA-15 is one of the most extensively studied and commercially ... -
Comparing the thermal conductivity of three artificial soils under differing moisture and density conditions for use in green infrastructure
(Wiley, 2022-08-15)Abstract Soil-based green infrastructure has the potential to improve building thermal performance and contribute to sustainable buildings. This study compares thermal conductivity response to soil moisture of three ...
