Evolution of sub-ice-shelf channels reveals changes in ocean-driven melt in West Antarctica by Karen E. Alley, Richard B. Alley, Alex D. Crawford, Naomi Ochwat, Christian T. Wild, Juliana Marson, Tasha Snow, Atsuhiro Muto, Erin C. Pettit, Sarah F. Child, Martin Truffer, Gabriela Collao-Barrios, Ted A. Scambos

“…Basal channels, which are troughs carved into the undersides of ice shelves by buoyant plumes of water, are modulators of ice-shelf basal melt and structural stability. In this study, we track the evolution of 12 large basal channels beneath ice shelves of the Amundsen and Bellingshausen seas region in West Antarctica using the Landsat record since its start in the 1970s through 2020. …”

The plurality of temporal reckoning among the Maya by William F. Hanks

“…It demonstrates that multiple systems of temporal reckoning and orientation co-operate in the traditional domains of daily practice, and it attempts to formulate principles by which different systems are combined in actional frameworks It is argued that most cyclicity in contemporary Yucatec Maya is derivative of natural or social processes and that in rituals it results from the translation of spatial arrays into temporal sequences. The paper tracks the varieties of cyclic and spiral time measurement in several domains, where different units and levels of temporal measurement and different rhythms are observed: 1) the field of co-presence in which utterances are performed, including deictic time; 2) the diurnal cycle and its actional correlates; 3) the agricultural cycles, the forest life cycle and the labor they imply; 4) domestic space whose time involves in addition the age and generational relations among co-residents; 5) ritual time in Yucatec shamanic practice, which is given special attention. …”
