Meltwater

  1. Glacial meltwater and coccolithophore blooms look optically similar in fjords
    Glacial meltwater and coccolithophore blooms produce indistinguishable optical signatures in Norwegian fjords, limiting satellite remote sensing. Inherent optical properties reveal differences.
  2. Global glacial lakes store more water but vary widely in longevity
    Study quantifies 71,000 glacial lakes globally, estimating 2,048 km³ of freshwater storage in 2020 and tracking changes since 1990 across high-mountain regions.
  3. Freeze–thaw reshapes water, salt, and heat in saline farmland soil
    Freeze-thaw driven water-salt redistribution in saline farmland soils: quantified hydrothermal parameters and coupled migration mechanisms from field-laboratory verification.
