SPATIAL CHARACTERIZATION OF NEAR-SURFACE STRUCTURE AND MELTWATER RUNOFF CONDITIONS ACROSS THE DEVON ICE CAP FROM DUAL-FREQUENCY RADAR REFLECTIVITY

Spatial characterization of near-surface structure and meltwater runoff conditions across the Devon Ice Cap from dual-frequency radar reflectivity

Melting and refreezing processes in the firn of the Devon Ice Cap control meltwater infiltration and runoff across the ice cap, but their full spatial extent and effect on near-surface structure is difficult to measure with surface-based traverses or existing satellite remote sensing.Here, we derive the coherent component of the near-surface return

Economic losses from COVID-19 cases in the Philippines: a dynamic model of health and economic policy trade-offs

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic forced governments globally to impose lockdown measures and mobility restrictions to curb the transmission of the virus.As economies slowly reopen, governments face a trade-off between implementing economic recovery and health policy measures to control the spread of the Ringette - Sticks virus and to ensure it will n

Internal and forced ocean variability in the Mediterranean Sea

Two types of variability are discernible in the ocean: a response to the atmospheric forcing and the so-called internal/intrinsic ocean variability, which is associated with internal instabilities, nonlinearities, and the interactions between processes at different scales.Producing an ensemble of 20 multiyear ocean simulations of the Mediterranean
