Reproductive and persistence strategy of the liverwort Arnellia fennica after the last glaciation in the area of disjunction in Central Europe (Polish Tatra Mountains, carpathians) by Piotr Górski, Monika Szczecińska, Jakub Sawicki

Does total column ozone change during a solar eclipse? by G. H. Bernhard, G. T. Janson, S. Simpson, R. R. Cordero, R. R. Cordero, E. I. Sepúlveda Araya, J. Jorquera, J. A. Rayas, R. N. Lind

“…Measurements were performed during three solar eclipses: the “Great American Eclipse” of 2024, which was observed in Mazatlán, Mexico, on 8 April 2024; a partial solar eclipse that took place in the United States on 14 October 2023 and was observed at Fort Collins, Colorado (40.57° N, 105.10° W); and a total solar eclipse that occurred in Antarctica on 4 December 2021 and was observed at Union Glacier (79.76° S, 82.84° W). The upper limits of the amplitude of oscillations in TCO observed at Mazatlán, Fort Collins, and Antarctica were 0.4 %, 0.3 %, and 0.03 %, respectively. …”

Deep learning model based prediction of vehicle CO2 emissions with eXplainable AI integration for sustainable environment by Gazi Mohammad Imdadul Alam, Sharia Arfin Tanim, Sumit Kanti Sarker, Yutaka Watanobe, Rashedul Islam, M. F. Mridha, Kamruddin Nur

“…Abstract The transportation industry contributes significantly to climate change through carbon dioxide ( $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 ) emissions, intensifying global warming and leading to more frequent and severe weather phenomena such as flooding, drought, heat waves, glacier melting, and rising sea levels. This study proposes a comprehensive approach for predicting $$\hbox {CO}_{2}$$ CO 2 emissions from vehicles using deep learning techniques enhanced by eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) methods. …”

Compound weather and climate extremes in the Asian region: science-informed recommendations for policy by R. Krishnan, Chirag Dhara, Takeshi Horinouchi, C. Kendra Gotangco Gonzales, C. Kendra Gotangco Gonzales, A. P. Dimri, A. P. Dimri, M. Singh Shrestha, P. Swapna, M. K. Roxy, Seok-Woo Son, Seok-Woo Son, D. C. Ayantika, Faye Abigail T. Cruz, Fangli Qiao

“…The first typology pertains to compound floods, for example, the devastating floods in the Indus River Basin and adjoining Western Himalayas during 2022 caused by the combined effects of heavy monsoon rainfall, intense pre-monsoon heatwaves, glacier melt, and modes of climate variability. The second typology relates to compound heatwave-drought events that have prominently manifested in East and South Asia, and are linked to large-scale drivers of the land-atmosphere–ocean coupled system and local feedbacks. …”

The Mystery of “those icy climes” (Shelley 269): Literature, Science and Early Nineteenth-century Polar Exploration by Catherine Lanone

“…Nineteenth-century science probed into the mystery of ice, from the structure of snowflakes to glaciers to Polar exploration. Literature reflects this attempt to understand the shifting nature of ice, a transparent yet deceptive—neither liquid nor truly solid—elemental structure. …”

Dynamics of ecosystem service values in the Tarim River Basin by Mengxin Sun, Mengxin Sun, Xin Shen, Xin Shen, Hailiang Xu, Hailiang Xu, Ai Shajiang·Aili, Ai Shajiang·Aili

“…ESV peaked in 2015 due to wetland and water body expansion, but declined as wetlands shrank and glaciers retreated. (3) Key natural drivers of ESV include vegetation health (NDVI), proximity to water bodies, and precipitation, while socioeconomic factors like GDP have grown in influence. …”

De l’observation des écroulements aux solutions opérationnelles : près de deux décennies d’études sur les risques cryo-gravitaires dans le massif du Mont-Blanc by Florence Magnin, Ludovic Ravanel, Matan Ben-Asher, Josué Bock, Maëva Cathala, Pierre-Allain Duvillard, Pierrick Jean, Jean-Yves Josnin, Suvrat Kaushik, André Revil, Philip Deline

“…Enfin, les échanges thermiques et hydrologiques entre les parois à permafrost et les appareils nivo-glaciaires qui y sont nichés (tabliers de glace et glaciers suspendus) sont une autre perspective de recherche à explorer, avec des implications pluridisciplinaires.…”

La Vision artistique de la montagne : panorama, pli ou plongée ? by Marie-Madeleine Martinet

“…The undulations of uneven grounds provided motifs to represent folded spaces where diversity or surprise predominates over regularity; the reflections of these tormented shapes between glaciers became an object of scientific investigation, at the same time inspiring romantic landscape painters to find new shades of colour. …”

Quaternary morpho-stratigraphic evolution of the eastern Campo Imperatore basin (Gran Sasso range, central Italian Apennines) and tectonic implication by Paolo Galli, Paolo Messina, Biagio Giaccio, Edoardo Peronace

“…With further regional uplift and changes in frequency/amplitude of the glacial-interglacial cycles (Early-Middle Pleistocene transition) and after establishment of the expansion-contraction cycles of the Apennine glaciers (Middle Pleistocene), the morpho-sedimentary processes become highly dynamic. …”

Bathymetry of the Antarctic continental shelf and ice shelf cavities from circumpolar gravity anomalies and other data by Raphaelle Charrassin, Romain Millan, Eric Rignot, Mirko Scheinert

“…The greater depths of troughs on the continental shelf and ice shelf cavities imply that many glaciers are more vulnerable to ocean subsurface warming than previously thought, which may increase the projections of sea level rise from Antarctica.…”

Climate change and water resources in the Himalayas by Joëlle Smadja, Olivia Aubriot, Ornella Puschiasis, Thierry Duplan, Juliette Grimaldi, Mickaël Hugonnet, Pauline Buchheit

“…Among other things, they provide information about snow, a parameter that has been measured incorrectly and underestimated in simulations, and they show that populations are more affected by fluctuations in rainfall patterns than by the melting of glaciers and the snow cover. Lastly, they highlight the geographical units and population groups most likely to be affected by climatic variations.…”

Using Borehole Temperatures for Knowledge Transfer about Mountain Permafrost: The Example of the 35-year Time Series at Murtèl-Corvatsch (Swiss Alps) by Wilfried Haeberli, Jeannette Noetzli, Daniel Vonder Mühll

“…Thermal anomalies caused by global warming already now reach about 100 meters depth, thereby reducing the ground ice content, causing accelerated creep of ice-rich frozen talus/debris (so-called “rock glaciers”) and reducing the stability of large frozen bedrock masses at steep icy faces and peaks.…”
