Physiological variables associated with the development of acute mountain sickness at the South Pole by Paul J Anderson, Bruce D Johnson, Michael F Harrison, Andrew D Miller, Kathy A O'Malley, Maile L Richert, Jacob B Johnson

“…Objectives The Antarctic Study of Altitude Physiology (ASAP) investigated variables associated with the development of AMS in adults experiencing rapid passive transport to altitude by airplane.Design Our prospective observational trial collected data, including personal history, anthropometrics, vital signs, blood samples and pulmonary function, at sea level and at altitude. Statistical analysis utilised independent sample t tests to investigate between-group differences (p<0.05) and a forward, step-wise binary logisitic regression analysis was performed.Participants Of 248 eligible ASAP participants, those who did not use acetazolamide (N=98) were included in the present analysis.Primary outcome measures The diagnosis of AMS using the Lake Louise Symptom Score.Results Analysis of participants not using acetazolamide (n=90) found 30 participants developed AMS and 60 participants did not. …”

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. …”

Shipwreck Architecture by Simon Weir, Sara Rich

“…This trajectory of ideas is then projected into a creative project: a speculative history of shipwreck architecture where the cutting edge of biological research is projected into a technological future when the distant aims of today’s technology are ancient history: when the first generations of grown buildings are preserved as ruins, when giant decommissioned carbon-capture factories drift like ghost ships across lakes of their inky waste, when people remember when shipwrecks caused by the hazards of rising sea levels were later exposed by sinking sea levels and converted into hotels and theatres, and finally, when these theatrical memories provoke such nostalgia that shipwreck architecture would be replicated and fabricated. …”

Growth Rates of  Morphometric Variables in Approximately Linear Sections Using Lines in R3 by Aquiles E. Darghan, Enrique Quevedo García, Sergio Esteban Gamboa Muñoz, Carlos Armando Rivera Moreno

“…The application was illustrated with growth data of the equatorial and longitudinal diameters of peach fruits measured on different days after defoliation, using data from different elevations above sea level. The proposal simplifies obtaining some growth rates using nonconventional methods; in addition, it allows the comparison and adjustment of the model for the different elevations considered, which provides a novel way for the teaching of certain areas of applied mathematics in plant physiology.…”

Acceptabilité sociale des mesures d’adaptation au changement climatique en zones côtières : une revue de dix enquêtes menées en France métropolitaine by Hélène Rey-Valette, Nicolas Rocle, Didier Vye, Lucile Mineo-Kleiner, Esméralda Longépée, Cécile Bazart, Nicole Lautrédou-Audouy

“…The article aims to compare and to analyze results from ten quantitative research surveys conducted in mainland France (from 2007 to 2017) dealing with citizen perceptions and points of view about coastal adaptation measures and policies to face sea level rise. Beyond social perceptions and representations on coastal phenomena and coastal risks, the article highlights the influence of institutional factors on adaptation policies’ acceptability depending on the type of population (primary and secondary residents, tourists…) : these factors are mainly the role of information, social perceptions of adaptation measures (protection, adjustment, coastal retreat…), trust and legitimacy about the institutions in charge of these policies, as well as feelings of (in)justice that are observed according to different propositions of funding in adaptation policies. …”
