Arctic is launching a successor to its renowned MX-4 thermal paste
A listing for Arctic MX-5 recently appeared over on Amazon’s UK portal. Details are few and far between at this point but according to the listing, MX-5 is metal-free and not electrically conductive, making it safe for use even if you accidentally.....»»
Accepting uncertainty in sustainable fisheries is essential in a rapidly changing Arctic, says researcher
Climate change is making it almost impossible to decide how much, where and what to sustainably fish as the fate of future fisheries is becoming increasingly uncertain. This is leading to a slow process or inaction in adapting fisheries and their man.....»»
Investigating variation in the permafrost active layer over the Tibetan Plateau from 1980 to 2020
The Tibetan Plateau hosts the world's largest permafrost region in the middle and low latitudes. Compared to the high-latitude Arctic permafrost, the permafrost here is thinner, warmer, and more sensitive to global warming. The active layer is a cruc.....»»

Canadian wildfire smoke dispersal worsened by coincident cyclones, study suggests
Wildfires are unplanned and unpredictable threats to Earth; while we may intuitively relate them to extreme heat at lower latitudes, they are known to occur in Arctic regions, such as those recently ravaging Russia......»»
The detection of a massive harmful algal bloom in the Arctic prompts real-time advisories to western Alaskan communities
In the summer of 2022, a research cruise detected a massive harmful algal bloom (HAB) in the Bering Strait region of western Alaska. This expedition provided a dramatic example of science utilizing new technology to track a neurotoxic HAB, and effect.....»»

Exploring the radiative effects of precipitation on Arctic amplification and energy budget
One of the key metrics for climate modeling is radiative forcing. Most climate models, including the general circulation models (GCMs), focus on the effects of different atmospheric factors on radiative forcing. However, there are still large uncerta.....»»
Controlling magnetism with polarized light: Non-thermal pathway uses inverse Faraday effect
Intense laser pulses can be used to manipulate or even switch the magnetization orientation of a material on extremely short time scales. Typically, such effects are thermally induced, as the absorbed laser energy heats up the material very rapidly,.....»»
Desert-loving fungi and lichens pose deadly threat to 5,000-year-old rock art
The Negev desert of southern Israel is renowned for its unique rock art. Since at least the third millennium BCE, the hunters, shepherds, and merchants who roamed the Negev have left thousands of carvings (petroglyphs) on the rocks. These figures are.....»»
