Fifty years of geophysical researches of glaciers in Institute of Geography, the Russian Academy of Sciences, 1966–2016 by V. M. Kotlyakov, Yu. Ya. Macheret

“…Basic results of these studies are the following: (1) the new data on the ice thicknesses, ice volumes, subglacial relief, internal structure, and thermal state of the glaciers were obtained; (2) the two‑layered (polythermal) glaciers consisting of the upper layer of cold ice and the lower layer of temperate water‑filled ice had been revealed in Svalbard for the first time; spatial distribution of cold, polythermal and temperate glaciers had been determined; (3) the evidences were obtained that measured changes in thickness of the upper cold ice layer in polythermal glaciers can be used to estimate the long‑period variations of regional climates and serve as regional paleothermometers; (4) methods for estimating the water content in temperate and polythermal glaciers from the RES data were developed; and its space‑time variations in temperate ices of the Svaldbald glaciers were estimated since even small water content inside of them can noticeably change their dynamic behavior; (5) methods for estimating the ice volume within glaciers in large regions of mountain and polar glaciations had been created; the ice storages were estimated in Svalbard, Franz Josef Land, Dzhungrsky Alatau, the Great Caucasus, and Mt. …”

Phasage des travaux et organisations transitoires : quels rôles pour l’ergonome ? by François Daniellou, Jacques Escouteloup, Joffrey Beaujouan

“…Ergonomics has often focused on understanding the shift from Situation A to Situation B in an architectural context but has devoted less attention to the intermediate stages between A and B and their impact on occupants’ health and the efficiency of the establishment. This paper examines various examples of this type of project and suggests how ergonomists may help to reconcile continued operation and building work by: (1) encouraging the two professional groups to meet and discuss the issues, (2) using simulations to determine the broad outlines of the schedule, (3) helping occupants to define temporary organisation methods and (4) adjusting those forms of organisation to major stages in the schedule.…”
