Open AccessSocietal importance of Antarctic negative feedbacks on climate change: blue carbon gains from sea ice, ice shelf and glacier losses
Diminishing prospects for environmental preservation under climate change are intensifying efforts to boost capture, storage and sequestration (long-term burial) of carbon. However, as Earth’s biological carbo...

Subtalar fusion after conservative or operative treatment of intraarticular calcaneus fracture
In a long-term follow-up we evaluated 40 patients out of 55 (73 %) with a subtalar fusion. The operations took place from 5/84 to 5/91. In all cases the indication for the fusion was a post-traumatic arthritis...
