Reciprocal Empowerment Through Remote Service Learning
Birgit Phillips
Jan 01, 0001
This chapter presents a novel pedagogical approach of “remote service learning” (RSL), which was applied in an undergraduate health degree program at an Austrian university. Remote service learning is a form of active blended...

Molecular insights into the powerful mucus-based adhesion of limpets (Patella vulgata L.).
Limpets (Patella vulgata L.) are renowned for their powerful attachments to rocks on wave-swept seashores. Unlike adult barnacles and mussels, limpets do not adhere permanently; instead, they repeatedly transition between...
Automated Markov state models for molecular dynamics simulations of aggregation and self-assembly.
Markov state models have become popular in the computational biochemistry and biophysics communities as a technique for identifying stationary and kinetic information of protein dynamics from molecular dynamics simulation data....

Remobilization of dormant carbon from Siberian-Arctic permafrost during three past warming events.
Jannik Martens, Birgit Wild, Francesco Muschitiello, Matt O'Regan, Martin Jakobsson, Igor Semiletov, Oleg V Dudarev, Örjan Gustafsson
Oct 20, 2020
Carbon cycle models suggest that past warming events in the Arctic may have caused large-scale permafrost thaw and carbon remobilization, thus affecting atmospheric CO2 levels. However, observational records are sparse...
