This paper discusses the chemical composition of frost flowers and their accompanying
slush layers and the evidence for their role as a salt source in processes important to …

Frost flowers grow on newly‐formed sea ice from a saturated water vapour layer. They provide
a large effective surface area and a reservoir of sea salt ions in the liquid phase with triple …

We describe in situ measurements of the compaction of Antarctic snow. At three different sites
in Antarctica, the rate of compaction was measured hourly, over various depth intervals, for …

Frost flowers collected from the surface of new sea ice near the Brunt Ice Shelf, Antarctica,
show depletion in sulphate and sodium relative to other sea water ions. This is consistent with …

The sea ice surface, not open water, is the dominant source of sea salt to aerosol and ice
cores in coastal Antarctica. Here, we show that it may also form the dominant source for central …

Secrets played a central role in transformations in medical, alchemical, natural philosophical
and commercial knowledge in early modern Europe. This volume brings together …

Telomeres, the specialized structures that comprise the ends of chromosomes, form a closed
structure, or t-loop, that is important in preventing genomic instability. Forced modulation of …

… MSA was generally low throughout the year, showing an average of 42ng m−3 (9.8±13.2pptV),
significantly lower than the 84 ng m−3 measured by Rankin and Wolff in 2001 but similar …

… I am extremely grateful. I would next like to thank all of my classmates and friends that I
have worked with and laughed with during my time at Purdue. The ideas discussed, the …

Size‐segregated aerosol samples were collected with a cascade impactor at 2 week intervals
for a year at the research station Halley, situated near the coast in the Weddell Sea region …
