Assessing the effects of fjord geometry on Greenland tidewater glacier stability by Elizabeth Fischer, Andy Aschwanden

“…However, there has been little modeling or systematic observational work on the topic. Measuring calving rates directly is challenging and thus we developed an averaged von Mises stress state at the glacier terminus as a calving rate proxy that can be estimated from surface velocities, ice thickness, a terminus position and subglacial topography. …”

Entropy engineering activation of UiO-66 for boosting catalytic transfer hydrogenation by Mingwei Ma, Enpeng Chen, Huijuan Yue, Ge Tian, Shouhua Feng

“…The lattice distortion of HE-UiO-66 induces high exposure of metal nodes to create coordination unsaturated metal sites with a concentration of 322.4 μmol/g, which increases the abundance of Lewis acid-base sites, thereby achieving a significant improvement in the performance of the catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) reaction. Systematic investigation manifests that the special electronic structure of HE-UiO-66 enhances the interaction and bonding with substrate molecules and reduces the energy barrier of the hydrogen transfer process. …”

Adaptive Neuroplastic Responses in Early and Late Hemispherectomized Monkeys by Mark W. Burke, Ron Kupers, Maurice Ptito

“…The degree of neural reorganization has been difficult to study systematically in human infants. Here we present a 20-year culmination of data on our nonhuman primate model (Chlorocebus sabeus) of early-life hemispherectomy in which behavioral recovery is interpreted in light of plastic processes that lead to the anatomical reorganization of the early-damaged brain. …”
