Life Histories of Two Endangered Sea Skaters Halobates matsumurai Esaki and Asclepios shiranui (Esaki) (Hemiptera: Gerridae: Halobatinae) by Terumi Ikawa, Yuichi Nozoe, Natsuko Yamashita, Namiko Nishimura, Satoshi Ohnoki, Kyoko Yusa, Sugihiko Hoshizaki, Masayuki Komaba, Akihiro Kawakubo

“…Eggs of H. matsumurai were laid on natural sandstones and man-made sandstone walls along the shore, mostly above the average sea level. The eggs had very hard shells, presumably adaptive to protect them from desiccation, solar radiation, and wave action, especially during the overwintering period.…”

Area, volume and ELA changes of West Greenland local glaciers and ice caps from 1985–2020 by Andrea Securo, Costanza Del Gobbo, Michele Citterio, Horst Machguth, Marco Marcer, Niels J. Korsgaard, Renato R. Colucci

“…Although less monitored and studied than the ice sheet, local glaciers and ice caps along the coast of Greenland are substantial contributors to meltwater runoff and sea level rise. This study analyses the cumulative area, ice mass and Equilibrium Line Altitude (ELA) change that occurred on 4100 glaciers and ice caps in West Greenland from 1985 to approximately 2020, using remotely sensed data and including glaciers smaller than 1 km2 in the calculations. …”
