Borneol, a medicinally important bicyclic monoterpene, facilitates drug transport across mucous membranes and the blood-brain barrier. Derivatives of borneol and camphor also have numerous biomedical applications. Borneol is currently industrially synthesized via the conversion of turpentine and α-pinene.

- This study investigates how different characteristics of shrubs (like height and width) affect snow morphology (like height and width of snow) in Xilinhot, China.
- The research found that shrub height significantly influences snow height, while shrub width on the windward side affects snow width and tail length, with smaller shrubs allowing for faster snow development.
- Models created from the data demonstrate how shrubs can block and retain snow, providing a foundation for managing snow resources and minimizing snow-related hazards in steppe regions.
