35 36 New high resolution multibeam data in the Gulf of Bothnia reveal for the first time the 37 subglacial environment of a Bothnian Sea Ice Stream. The geomorphological record suggests 38 that increased meltwater production may have been important in driving rapid retreat of 39 Bothnian Sea ice during deglaciation. Here we apply a well-established one-dimensional 40 flowline model to simulate...

S U M M A R Y The subduction of lithospheric plates is partitioned between subducting platemotion and lateral slab migration (i.e. trench retreat and advance). We use 3-D, dynamic models of subduction to address the role of a power-law mantle viscosity on subduction dynamics and, in particular, rates of trench retreat. For all numerical models tested, we find that a power-law rheology results i...

BACKGROUND This case study describes the South Central Chapter of the Medical Library Association (SCC/MLA) initiative to develop an academic writing retreat for members who sought the necessary time and support to advance their research projects toward publication. CASE PRESENTATION SCC/MLA staged a dedicated writing retreat to coincide with the organization's 2012, 2013, and 2014 annual mee...

This study focused on the relationship between nonhuman animal behavior and envi-ronment- specifically, between the undesirable behavior exhibited by domestic pet-ting zoo animals in the presence of humans and the spatial design of the petting zoo environment. A spatial feature of a petting zoo referred to as a retreat space was ma-nipulated so that it affected the animals' opportunity for indi...

The 1998 flood had smaller peak discharges than of the 1954 flood (largest flood in the 20 century) at most gauging stations in the middle and lower reaches, but resulted in higher peak stages. One of the reasons of this higher water stages is the decrease in the surface area and storage capacity of natural lakes due to the excess impoldering agricultural land and sedimentation. However, there ...

This article discusses a recent retreat of multiculturalism in the liberal state. This retreat has occurred both at the level of theory and policy. With the help of some recent liberal critiques of multiculturalism, the first part maps out some shortcomings of the notion of minority integration through cultural recognition, particularly with respect to immigrants. The second part discusses a re...

Thirty-eight individuals (mean age: 34.8 years old) participating in a 3-month yoga and meditation retreat were assessed before and after the intervention for psychometric measures, brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), circadian salivary cortisol levels, and pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Participation in the retreat was found to be associated with decreases in self-reported anxiety...

The retreat of cliffs may constitute the dominant erosional response to base‐level fall in arid settings underlain by horizontally‐bedded sedimentary rock. These vertical cliffs typically loom above a relatively straight bedrock slope (‘plinth’) that is mantled with a thin layer of sediment and perched near the angle of repose. In detail, a plinth consists of a system of quasi‐parallel ridges a...

[1] This bi-polar analysis resolves ice edge changes on space/time scales relevant for investigating seasonal iceocean feedbacks and focuses on spatio-temporal changes in the timing of annual sea ice retreat and advance over 1979/ 80 to 2010/11. Where Arctic sea ice decrease is fastest, the sea ice retreat is now nearly 2 months earlier and subsequent advance more than 1 month later (compared t...
