Abstract: In the field of engineered systems, the integration of machine learning has enabled the development of advanced predictive models that ensure the reliable operation of complex assets. However, challenges such as sparse, noisy, and incomplete data necessitate the integration of prior knowledge and inductive bias to improve generalization, interpretability, and robustness. Inductive bias, the set of assumptions embedded in machine learning models, plays ...

Information on past sensitivity of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) to climate change is of great importance for optimizing models simulating the future evolution of ice mass loss. The northwest and north GrIS have shown a distinct sensitivity to current global warming, yielding widespread retreat and runoff and yet, the Holocene glacial history of these areas was not well constrained just a decade ago ...

We have investigated the source and role of light-absorbing impurities (LAIs) deposited on the glaciers of the Olivares catchment, in Central Chile. LAIs can considerably darken (lowered albedo) the glacier surface, enhancing their melt. We combined chemical and mineralogical laboratory analyses of surface and ice core samples with field-based spectral reflectance measurements to investigate the nature and properties of such LAIs. Using remote sensing-based ...
