A data-consistent model of the last glaciation in the Alps achieved with physics-driven AI by Tancrède P. M. Leger, Guillaume Jouvet, Sarah Kamleitner, Jürgen Mey, Frédéric Herman, Brandon D. Finley, Susan Ivy-Ochs, Andreas Vieli, Andreas Henz, Samuel U. Nussbaumer

“…Our results have implications for better estimating former ice velocities, ice temperature, basal conditions, erosion processes, and paleoclimate in the Alps. This study demonstrates that physics-informed machine learning can help overcome the bottleneck of high-resolution glacier modelling and better test parameterisations, both of which are required to accurately describe complex topographies and ice dynamics.…”

Fabrication of pH-Responsive Chitosan/Polyvinylpyrrolidone Hydrogels for Controlled Release of Metronidazole and Antibacterial Properties by Zerihun Feyissa, Gemechu Deressa Edossa, Tariku Bayisa Bedasa, Leta Guta Inki

“…The best-fit Korsmeyer–Peppas model suggests that MTZ release followed diffusion and swelling-controlled time-dependent non-Fickian transport related to hydrogel erosion. This hydrogel displays enhanced antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli showed substantial inhibition zones indicating the produced CS/PVP hydrogels are promising candidates for controlled drug release applications.…”

Evaluation of Land Use Changes before and after Iraq and Iran's War (Case Study: Ilam Watershed) by Norodin Rostami, Batol Navrouzi, Taherh Jafari

“…The results showed that during these periods the garden land use had no notable changes, while the unutilized lands had a growing trend rather than other land uses that could be because of the population growth, development of urban, industrial area and also erosion of fertilize lands. Also, the area of forest land use was changing during various periods, which one of the main reasons of decreases is the destruction of forest during Iraq's war for using woods in order to cook and be warm in cold seasons by people who settled in forests of Ilam's city neighborhood. …”
