Abstract Introduction Exploratory laparotomy has classically been the treatment for adhesive small bowel obstruction (ASBO). Laparoscopic approaches have proven to be a beneficial technique in selected patients. Despite being minimally invasive and associated with low morbidity it is still not widespread technique. Methods Descriptive, retrospective study from January 2011 April 2022, of 43 pat...

Jeju Island, South Korea, is a Cenozoic intraplate volcano located in East Asia. The basalts display ocean island basalt (OIB)-like trace element patterns and enriched mantle type 2 (EM2) radiogenic isotope compositions, but the source that remains unclear. Here we report new geochemical compositions of xenoliths, including first helium analysis olivine phenocrysts to constrain basalt. Olivines...

Sea ice thickness (SIT) is an important parameter in the study of climate change. During past 20 years, satellite altimetry has been widely used to observe sea thickness. The Chinese Haiyang-2B (HY-2B) radar altimeter, launched October 2018, can provide data up 80.6° latitude and be as a supplementary means polar ice. Reliable HY-2B SIT products will contribute community. In this study, we aime...

Abstract. In this study, we compare eight recently developed snow depth products over Arctic sea ice, which use satellite observations, modeling, or a combination of and modeling approaches. These are further compared against various ground-truth including those from ice mass balance observations airborne measurements. Large mean discrepancies observed the Atlantic Canadian sectors. The differe...

Abstract The origin of the Eastern Mexican Alkaline Province has been explained by landward arc migration and subsequent asthenospheric upwelling after slab roll-back Farallon Plate. In this work, we present new petrographic, mineral chemical, geochemical, geochronological data Sierra de San Carlos-Cruillas (SSCC), one most important complexes in province. This information, together with publis...

Cenozoic mantle-derived magmas are widespread on the Tibetan Plateau, and provide evidence for evolution of deep mantle its influence Plateau development. Miocene basalts in Maguan area southeastern have high MgO (9.13–13.10 wt%) Mg# (0.60–0.70) with Ce/Pb (10.6–32.5) Nb/U (43.7–52.9) ratios, similar to those oceanic basalts. Distinct from Eocene-Oligocene potassic Western Yunnan basic volcanic...

Since 2010, the CryoSat-2 satellite mission has enabled to largely improve sea ice freeboard estimations. But due complexity of radar echoes over ice, retrieval from altimetry still presents some errors and biases that further limit potential these observations for climate studies or assimilation into models. Various methods have been explored, producing a large range In this study, we analyze ...
