Interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) are small particles ranging from nanometers to centimeters that are present throughout the solar system. IDPs are produced by several processes such as cometary outgassing, asteroidal collisions, and grain-grain mutual collisions. As IDPs orbit the Sun, they impact all planetary bodies and contribute to several important ...
Glaciers worldwide are subject to large seasonal changes in boundary conditions. This seasonal variation provides a wonderful natural experiment to study the reaction of glaciers to external forcings. This is particularly important in the case of tidewater and outlet glaciers, where the ice discharge directly contributes to mass loss and ...
