Wei, Y. H. Dennis | Spatial-temporal hierarchy of regional inequality of China | This paper advances the multi-scale and multi-mechanism framework of regional inequality in China by using the most recent statistical data. We analyze the multi-scalar patterns of China's regional inequality with GIS and statistical techniques, and demonstrate the significance of the municipality e... | Regional inequality; Spatial hierarchy; GIS | 2010-07 |

Forster, Richard R. | Summer melt regulates winter glacier flow speeds throughout Alaska | Predicting how climate change will affect glacier and ice sheet flow speeds remains a large hurdle toward accurate sea level rise forecasting. Increases in surface melt rates are known to accelerate glacier flow in summer, whereas in winter, flow speeds are believed to be relatively invariant. Here ... | | 2013-01-01 |

Nicoll, Kathleen; Chan, Marjorie A. | Utah's geologic and geomorphic terrestrial analogs to Mars: a training ground for future robotic and human missions to Mars | Utah offers spectacular geologic features and valuable analogue environments and processes for Mars studies. Relatively intact, horizontal strata of the Colorado Plateau are analogous to Mars, where the effects of strong ground motion from earthquakes or impacts are preserved. Within Utah, easily ac... | | 2010 |
