Direct measurements of firn-density evolution from 2016 to 2022 at Wolverine Glacier, Alaska by C. Max Stevens, Louis Sass, Caitlyn Florentine, Christopher McNeil, Emily Baker, Katherine Bollen

“…Additionally, firn-density evolution on glaciers is closely connected to meltwater percolation, refreezing and runoff, which are key processes for glacier mass balance and hydrology. Since 2016, the U.S. Geological Survey Benchmark Glacier Project has recovered firn cores from a site on Wolverine Glacier in Alaska's Kenai Mountains. …”

Influence of bio-filter configurations on hydraulic aspects while enhancing the sustainable self-purification of agricultural drainage water by Raid Alrowais, Raid Alrowais, Ashraf Jatwary, Marcela Bindzarova Gergelova, Mohammad Akrami, Bandar Alwushayh, Elsayed Elkamhawy, Elsayed Elkamhawy

“…Altering the shape of bio-filter inlet is predicted to significantly influence heading-up values, with triangular shapes showing the lowest heading-up values compared to basic, rounded, or sloped upstream U.S face shapes. Relative heading-up values will increase by 10.32%, 10.44%, 24.67%, and 31.86% when changing the bio-filter inlet shape from triangular to sloped U.S. face with respect to horizontal and vertical direction, rounded, and basic bio-filter, respectively. …”

Polymorphic loci of coat color in mini-pigs by S. V. Nikitin, K. S. Shatokhin, S. P. Knyazev, G. M. Goncharenko, V. I. Zaporozhets, V. I. Ermolayev

“…Thus, the loci that control the most common coat colors in domestic pigs are polymorphic, while those controlling rare or relatively rare colors and monomorphic. The research allowed us to put forward some assumptions concerning the genetic determination of the phenotypic characteristics of color seen in the study group selection. …”
