Effects of Climate Warming, North Atlantic Oscillation, and El Niño-Southern Oscillation on Thermal Conditions and Plankton Dynamics in Northern Hemispheric Lakes by Dieter Gerten, Rita Adrian

“…Here we provide a review of studies that report long-term (multidecadal) effects of warming trends on thermal properties and plankton dynamics in northern hemispheric lakes. We show that higher lake temperatures, shorter periods with ice cover, and shorter stagnation periods were common trends for lakes across the hemisphere in response to the warmer conditions. …”

Experimental Study on Frost Heave Behavior of Steel Fiber Improved Soil by Rongjian Shi, Feng Huang, Fengtian Yue, Zequn Hong, Yichen Li

“…In order to analyze the frost heave behavior of the steel fiber improved soil, a one-dimensional frost heave test under the open recharge system was conducted in this paper, focusing on the influence of steel fiber content, size, and soil properties. The results show that small amounts of steel fibers in the soil will not significantly affect the freezing process and temperature distribution, while the water-conducting properties of the steel fibers and the effect of limiting the ice lens growth can reduce the frost heave rate of the samples incorporated with 0.5% steel fibers by 26.93%. …”
