This work presents a comprehensive coupled thermal-hydro-mechanical model to explore the frost heave mechanism of the concrete-lined canal under a freeze?thaw environment. Unlike previous models that regard concrete as a homogeneous material, this model ...

Freeze?thaw has been proved to be a simple, cost-effective, and highly efficient manner to purify wastewater. However, it remains unclear how microbial compositions and functions in meltwater differentiate over progressive thawing and how such difference...

The East Siberian Sea (ESS) is a large and the shallowest part of the Arctic Ocean. It is characterized by high biogeochemical activity, but the seawater carbonate system remains understudied, especially during the late autumn season. Data from the resea...

It is challenging to obtain the ice phenology for a lake covered with a vast area of aquatic (shallow lake wetlands) using optical satellite data because possible clouds above the lake could contaminate the result. We developed a new method to tackle thi...

Most freeze-sensitive vaccines are stored between 2 °C and 8 °C upon manufacturing and until they are eventually administered in intermediate vaccine stores and health facilities. This so-called ?cold chain? of vaccine distribution is strictly regulated ...

Arctic environments experience rapid climatic changes as air temperatures are rising and precipitation is increasing. Rivers are key elements in these regions since they drain vast land areas and thereby reflect various climatic signals. Zackenberg River...

Earth-based building materials are increasingly valued in green design for their low embodied energy, humidity-buffering ability, and thermal stability. These materials perform well in warm dry climates, but greater understanding of long-term durability ...

Lake ice phenology (timing of ice breakup and freeze up) is a sensitive indicator of climate. We acquired time series of lake ice breakup and freeze up, local weather conditions, and large-scale climate oscillations from 1981?2015 for seven lakes in nort...

A deep temperate lake, Lake Kuttara, Hokkaido, Japan (148 m deep at maximum) was completely ice-covered every winter in the 20th century. However, ice-free conditions of the lake over winter occurred three times in the 21st century, which is probably due...
