Geological and geomorphological evidence indicates sustained slip over the past ~4 Ma, yet its present-day kinematics have not been quantified geodetically. Here, we use Sentinel-1 InSAR (Interferometric synthetic-aperture radar) data acquired between 2015 and 2021 to provide the first geodetic characterization CNBF. Fault-perpendicular line-of-sight (LOS) velocity profiles were extracted at regular intervals along the ~150 km-long fault and modeled using a Bayesian framework to explore a wide range of kinematic scenarios and associated uncertainties. Assuming a freely creeping fault, we infer a slip rate of ~2-2.5 mm/yr along the well-defined central segment of the mapped trace, consistent with independent geological and geomorphological estimates. When left unconstrained, fault dip and rake remain poorly resolved due to the limited signal-to-noise ratio to the InSAR data. However, imposing a purely dip-slip mechanism, in agreement with geological observations, significantly tightens parameter uncertainty and reveals a northward decrease in dip from ~45° to ~20° in the central segment. Southward, deformation appears more diffuse and model parameters less constrained, reflecting distributed strain and structural complexity. Although current uncertainties (~0.7 mm/yr) limit our ability to robustly assess fault locking, our results establish a first quantitative geodetic picture of the CNBF kinematics. Those constraints can be further refined in future work through longer InSAR time series and complementary GNSS observations, enabling a more reliable evaluation of the fault’s seismogenic potential.

We identify seven drivers derived from hazards that have and can result in reef damage in the Great Barrier Reef (GBR): waves, winds, bottom current velocity, coral bleaching, crown-of-thorns seastar outbreaks, ship groundings, and tsunamis. We map these drivers individually, apply damage thresholds where applicable, and combine the normalized drivers into an additive vulnerability index for the GBR. The Index can be applied at a range of scales from reef groups to the entire reef system and we show that the GBR has a moderate risk profile to damage. Risk to reef damage broadly increases towards the central region with lowest risk at the northern and southern ends of the GBR. Specific hotspots of high risk to damage are identified including the Cairns region and Swains Reef area. The Cape York and Mary Burnett Natural Resource Management zones represent regions with the lowest vulnerability scores and, therefore, are important to consider as potential refugia and nurseries for restocking reefs damaged in other parts of the GBR. Our approach takes a comprehensive and holistic view of all the disturbance drivers that the GBR experiences and will continue to experience in the coming decades at different frequencies and intensities. Given that substantial effort and resources are now being directed globally to active restoration of coral reefs, such efforts can be undone if management activities do not take a holistic approach to disturbance drivers.

This study assessed the meteorological drought events under the past and future climate of Eastern Tigray, Northern Ethiopia, with the principal objective of enhancing early warnings and better drought disaster response mechanisms. To predict future climate, delta scenarios were created from 20 GCMs CMIP5 and Bias corrected Spatially Downscaled dataset. GCM ensembles were used to analyze the 4- and 12-month Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Standardized Precipitation and Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI). The SPI and SPEI indices were computed using the two-parameter gamma probability (α, β) and log-logistic distributions (α, β and γ), respectively. The two indices revealed historical drought years 1982-83, 1984, 1985, 1999, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2008 and 2009. Based on the predicted climate data, SPI and SPEI indices revealed that Atsbi will likely experience a higher total magnitude of both short-term and long-term drought under the future climate. Considering short-term drought, the total number of consecutive dry months is expected to increase more in Fatsi based on both the SPEI-4 and SPI-4 timescale. Wukro, on the other hand, will experience the greatest increase in consecutive dry months in all-time segments and emission scenarios. Although the predicted climate showed increased precipitation in the future, it’s characteristically intermittent wet-dry cycles, coupled with higher evapotranspiration due to higher temperature.

The amplitude and period of the signal can serve as proxies for the sea state. Measurements along the cable at greater water depths show secondary microseisms related to the sea state away from the shore. The significant wave height (SWH) and ocean currents along the cable can be evaluated continuously during the experiment, resembling a dense sampling array of closely spaced moored buoys. However, in order to provide serviceable results, the measurements have to be calibrated against an existing buoy or wave numerical model data. In October 2023, the GeoLab dark fibre off Madeira Island in the Atlantic was fitted with a DAS interrogator under a project by ARDITI and the Oceanic Observatory of Madeira. As a pilot site, the experiment is linked to the SUBMERSE project that is trying to establish continuous DAS monitoring along fibre-optic cables at multiple locations around Europe. We use a one-week recording in late 2023, as well as a 5-day interval in 2024, to show changes in the DAS data close to the shore where the water depth is small.\nSpectrograms of individual channels and f-k spectra of different time intervals show effects of varying sea states, such as currents on the dispersion curves between land- and seaward waves. To calibrate the measurements, the data are compared against measurements from a moored buoy located close to the coast and the DAS cable.

Here I present <em>snowman</em>, an open-source R package and algorithm for automated mapping of snow and ice cover dynamics at 30-m resolution using Landsat satellite imagery (1982–present). The algorithm combines globally trained probabilistic Random Forest classifiers with pixel-wise generalised additive models to estimate snow phenology metrics—including snow cover duration, snowmelt timing, and new-snow onset—across any location on Earth, without requiring specialist expertise in remote sensing. Trained on 691,925 manually labelled points from 529 Landsat scenes across 49 globally distributed sites, the classifier achieved an overall accuracy of 96.3% on an independent 15,000-point test dataset, compared to 80.0% for traditional normalised difference snow index-based (NDSI) approaches. Critically, <em>snowman </em>retained up to 2.2 times more usable observations than NDSI methods across a cloud-prone mountain landscape, enabling more detailed estimation of the snow dynamics. At two Finnish weather stations, <em>snowman </em>estimated snow cover duration, snowmelt timing, and new-snow onset to within 3–11 days of multi-year station records.

We term this disparity \"synthesis inequality\". Citizen-science programs have expanded public access to data collection, yet data interpretation largely remains concentrated within scientific institutions. Local communities therefore generate observations but often lack the infrastructure to translate them into coherent narratives for decision-making. This paper introduces the AIRE framework, a structured approach to human-AI interaction designed to expand participant-led synthesis while protecting human agency. AIRE operationalizes a relational cycle of four phases (Connect, Reflect, Create, Share) in which generative AI functions are separated into bounded roles that support relational continuity, psychological safety, and synthesis assistance without displacing human interpretive authority. The theoretical foundation draws on polyvagal theory, the zone of proximal development, productive failure, and self-determination theory to establish physiological and developmental preconditions for reflective engagement. Social guardrails, including interrogative scaffolding, modular co-creation interfaces, and human facilitation protocols, ensure that the AI amplifies rather than replaces human meaning-making. The framework is grounded in established data governance principles (OCAP and CARE) and advances operational sovereignty as a practical standard for community control over data, narratives, and attribution. The paper presents testable hypotheses linking framework participation to narrative agency, emotional connection to nature, and intergenerational belonging, and proposes longitudinal methods for empirical validation.\n", "license": { "name": "No Creative Commons license", "short_name": "No CC license", "text": "This option allows you to opt out of adding a Creative Commons license to your submission.", "url": "https://escholarship.org" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Human-AI interaction" }, { "word": " environmental stewardship" }, { "word": " citizen science" }, { "word": " narrative agency" }, { "word": " sustainability education" }, { "word": " AI in education" } ], "date_submitted": "2026-03-05T09:51:20.732827Z", "date_accepted": "2026-03-06T14:26:06.620881Z", "date_published": "2026-03-06T14:26:00Z", "doi": null, "preprint_doi": "10.31223/X55X89", "authors": [ { "pk": 132326, "first_name": "Luigi", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Ceccaroni", "salutation": "", "orcid": "0000-0002-3116-0811" }, { "pk": 132327, "first_name": "Abigail", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Spyker", "salutation": "", "orcid": null } ], "subject": [ { "name": "Education" }, { "name": "Engineering" }, { "name": "Social and Behavioral Sciences" } ], "files": [ { "original_filename": "From environmental observation to shared narratives through human-AI interaction.pdf", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "download_url": "/repository/object/12038/download/21600/" } ], "supplementary_files": [] }, { "pk": 13044, "title": "Modeling Heterogeneous Subnational Climate Action through a Sectoral Tiering Framework: Implications for U.S. Decarbonization Pathways", "abstract": "State governments play a critical role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions to meet the United States’ Paris Agreement targets. However, states vary widely in their capacities and inclinations for enacting climate mitigation policies. Here, we present a sectoral tiering framework to assess state-level mitigation performance across sectors. We implement the tiering system in an integrated assessment model with 50-state resolution of the United States (GCAM-USA) to quantify how heterogeneous ambition shapes national outcomes. We find that in most sectors, states cluster in the lowest-performing tier, which accounts for the majority of sectoral emissions. Enhanced state ambition differentiated by tier can reduce 2035 emissions by 42–51% below 2005 levels, compared with 35% under existing measures. Modest increases in policy adoption and stringency in low-performing states yield larger reductions than comparable increases in high-performing states.

In many geothermal fields, permeability is controlled by faults, resulting in high spatial and directional variability, difficult to characterise without costly drilling. Electrical resistivity, however, can be measured from the surface, and like permeability, is sensitive to fluids if they are sufficiently conductive. Modelling of resistivity-based geophysical data has largely focussed on isotropic properties to map clay caps and deep heat sources. However, faults commonly have a preferred orientation, and fluid-filled faults often have lower resistivity than the matrix, so anisotropy of permeability and resistivity is expected. This study models faults from the borehole to field scale to characterise direction-dependent permeability and resistivity. Parameters are derived from active faults and geothermal fields in the Taupō Volcanic Zone (TVZ), New Zealand. Permeability is highest (1×10-12 m2) in the horizontal along-dominant-strike direction, lower vertically (4×10-14 m2), and lowest in the across-dominant strike direction (2×10-14 m2), with significant uncertainty in across-strike permeability (4×10-15 m2 to 9×10-14 m2). For typical TVZ fluids, resistivity is lowest along dominant strike (190 Ωm), slightly higher vertically (230 Ωm) and highest across-strike (465 ± 30 Ωm). Resistivity anisotropy ratios along-strike/across-strike are relatively consistent regardless of fault size distribution (~0.33-0.48). Anisotropy ratios for permeability are more variable (1-300). The calculated petrophysical properties provide numerical inputs to design geophysical surveys to measure direction-dependent resistivity, which may assist with improving fractured reservoir models and resource use.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Here, we investigate the effect of upper-crustal geological segmentation on nearshore subduction mechanics at the Cascadia margin. Using a high-resolution, shore-crossing 3-D seismic tomography model from central to southern Oregon, we image sharp along-strike contrasts in upper-crustal velocity associated with distinct accreted terranes. We show that the subducting slab is systematically deeper beneath the coherent, high-velocity Siletz terrane and shallower beneath low-velocity faulted Siletz and Franciscan terranes. Numerical simulations constrained by the tomographic velocities demonstrate that upper-plate density and rigidity contrasts alone reproduce the observed variation in slab depth and, when combined with viscoelastic deformation, explain the magnitude and pattern of coastal uplift. These findings establish that the along-strike changes in upper-crustal backstop, despite being ignored in geodetic locking models, are a primary mechanical filter that organizes subduction zone architecture and regulates the accumulation of megathrust related strain.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Our findings reveal that emission rates predicted by the First Order Decay (FOD) model used by Environment and Climate Change Canada at the visited sites are substantially higher than most measured emission rates, on average by a factor of 3, particularly for cold and arid climates typical of the Canadian prairie provinces (by a factor of 13 on average). Bias-corrected measurement rates aligned more closely with values reported to the Canadian Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. Compared with the amounts estimated by the FOD model, our measurement-based estimates show greater variation with climate change. At some warmer, wetter sites, measured rates exceeded FOD-modeled estimates, underscoring the influence of climate on landfill methane dynamics and on FOD model behavior. We also found that measurement-based estimates yield more realistic methane collection effectiveness values than those implied by Canada’s FOD-based inventories. Our results suggest that the current FOD inventory model parameters—that include decay rates and oxidation assumptions—should be refined to better reflect site-specific conditions and climate variability across Canada.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Cloud-related variability in atmospheric radiative budgets is suspected to be particularly important in year-to-year changes in ice melt. Here, we describe a decade of pan-Arctic satellite light detection and ranging observations indicating that shortwave transmittance differences of low-altitude clouds play a key role in ice retreat through summer. These summer cloud transmittance differences result in surface solar radiation budget changes comparable to melt energy requirements for observed year-to-year changes in September sea-ice extent. As a working hypothesis, we propose that variations in summer cloud optical properties reflect a combination of positive- and negative-feedback processes involving aerosol cloud condensation nuclei.

It also controls the formation, enrichment, and preservation of porphyry copper deposits, which are a vital source of metals for the clean energy technologies underpinning the global green energy transition. Exhumation rates are typically determined from rock cooling histories combined with a geothermal model. However, in magmatically active regions, models can overpredict exhumation rates because the elevated heat signature is mistakenly attributed to advection driven by rapid exhumation. We present a method to accurately constrain exhumation histories in magmatic terranes that combines thermokinematic modeling of thermochronometric cooling histories with independent geobarometric constraints on the total exhumed crustal thickness. Focusing on the Central Andes, which has a prolonged history of magmatic and magmatic-hydrothermal activity, we find that accounting for this additional source of heat results in exhumed crustal thicknesses within error of the independent constraints, whereas ignoring it results in exhumed thicknesses up to four times greater than geologically plausible.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

This approach integrates the 3-D spectral-element method (SEM) with a matrix-based frequency–wavenumber (FK) method, enabling the rigorous treatment of complex bathymetry and precise elastic–acoustic coupling within layered media. To facilitate large-scale simulations, the computational framework is optimized via GPU acceleration. The accuracy of the hybrid SEM–FK method is validated through a benchmark comparison with semi-analytical FK solutions for one-dimensional velocity structures. We demonstrate the practical utility of the method using a synthetic two-layer subduction zone model; specifically, we simulate receiver functions for ocean-bottom seismometers and perform a full-waveform inversion that successfully recovers prescribed subsurface anomalies.

Although earthquake cycle simulations help capture such complexity in seismic hazard models, their high computational cost prevents widespread use and uncertainty quantification. Here, we propose a physics-based probabilistic method to forecast the timing and magnitude of large earthquakes. The method combines fracture mechanics theory and observational constraints on seismic coupling, historical seismicity and fracture energy to forecast the arrest locations of long ruptures that have saturated the seismogenic depth. We apply this approach to estimate the time-dependent probability of earthquakes exceeding M8.5 across the entire Chilean subduction zone. Sensitivity analysis shows the most critical model parameter relates to the scaling between fracture energy and slip. We constrain the model parameters by matching the time between mega-earthquakes on the Valdivia segment, validate the constrained model based on the seismicity of other segments, then apply it prospectively over the whole Chile megathrust. Our results highlight how earthquake potential on a given megathrust segment can be altered by earthquakes on neighboring segments, which reduce the energy available for multi-segment ruptures.

This is in part due to a limited number of young rift systems with well constrained, high-resolution age models derived from subsurface datasets. We aim to address this challenge and advance our understanding of time-dependent geodynamic rift processes by developing a late-Quaternary, syn-kinematic age model for the Western Basin of the North Gulf of Evia, Central Greece. In contrast to the nearby Gulf of Corinth, extension here is complicated by rotational and strike-slip influence from the westward-propagating North Anatolian Fault. Seismic stratigraphic principles are used to identify three key horizons based on reflection termination relationships with ages of ~12 ka, ~130 ka and ~325 ka assigned through a sequence stratigraphic model on deltaic clinoform packages. The age model is applied alongside a network of offshore faults to determine the major structures, depocenters and evolutionary history of the rift. We resolve the major controlling faults to be the Kalypso Fault (~4 mm/yr slip) at the southern margin of the basin and the Central Graben (~1-2 mm/yr slip) along the axis of the gulf. We show that the Kalypso Fault is linked to the onshore Coastal Fault System following a migration event with evolving strike from the onshore Arkitsa Fault. The timing of this event is constrained to ~325 ka based on hanging wall sediment thickening relationships and the Kalypso Fault displays immediate, rapid lateral growth and throw accumulation after initiation. Improved constraints on the timing and evolutionary behaviour of young normal fault systems such as this show that fault migration and activation in complex rift settings can occur over timescales less than 105 years. </p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Here, we quantify that control in sodic (per)alkaline H2O-saturated magmas with variable F-content through crystallisation experiments at 650–800◦C and 200 MPa total pressure, at log f O2 ≈ FMQ +1. Biotite-glass pairs from tephriphonolite to phonolite fall deposits from Tenerife, Canary Islands, and a broad compilation from literature, complement our experimental data set. The new biotite-melt KdF/OH exchange coefficients are 2.9–47.0, typically 6.5–12.5, with minima for Al-rich, Mg-poor biotite. Nernst partition coefficients (D) for lithium are 0.24–32.8 with minima in F-poor biotite formed at high temperatures from peraluminous silicate melt. D values for the large alkali metal ions Na–Cs define Onuma parabolae consistent with their incorporation on the biotite XIIA-site. Niobium partition coefficients are 0.1–1.2, and highest in Ti-rich biotite. The REE and actinides have D values less than 0.01 as their ionic radii fall between the size of the XIIA-site and VIM-sites of biotite. Our data, alongside a literature compilation, constrain empirical models that: (1) describe the exchange of F and OH between the silicate melt and the biotite W-site; (2) predict the partitioning of 1+ cations Li–Cs between silicate melt and the biotite A- and M-sites; (3) predict DNb values. The models use the major-element composition of biotite and silicate melt, pressure and temperature as input. Models are calibrated for use over a wide range of pressure, temperature and bulk composition (P-T-X) and can be used to interrogate biotite from natural systems to determine the composition of their source melt, or to forward model the trace-element evolution of mafic to evolved peralkaline syenite or peraluminous granite systems at upper-mantle to crustal pressures.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Updated annually, the SR lists the top 100,000 scientists and the top 2% in each specialty. This study examines all (500) palaeontologists included in the SR (SR-palaeontologists), comparing their h-index, c-score and related productivity and citation variables. Analyses cover geographical distribution, statistical characterization and relationships among variables. SR-palaeontologists are concentrated mainly in North America and central-northern Europe. An average SR-palaeontologist has a 41-year career and 165 publications: 51 as first or single author (author), 69 as intermediate author (collaborator) and 45 as last author (manager). This imaginary scientist has received about 9,400 citations (17% self-citations): 2734 as author, 4720 as collaborator, and 1948 as manager. The average h-index is 47, and the mean c-score is 3.65. These metrics show weak correlation and little dependence on career length. Rankings differ markedly depending on whether the h-index or c-score is applied. Palaeontologists with high h-indices (h-palaeontologists) typically have more papers and citations, especially as collaborators or managers, and higher self-citation rates. In contrast, those with high c-scores (c-palaeontologists) generally produce fewer papers and citations overall, show lower self-citation rates and obtain a larger share of citations from work as authors rather than collaborators or managers. Expanding the database to include the broader palaeontological community would enable a more comprehensive assessment of citation performance and better inform evaluation practices.

This work describes the development of a 2m-resolution lidar-based DTM and an extensive set of land-surface parameters (LSPs) for the municipalities of São Sebastião and Ilhabela, southeastern Brazil. The dataset was generated from approximately 650 GB of airborne lidar point clouds, processed through a reproducible workflow comprising ground point classification, merging of filtered files, Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN) interpolation, gap filling, and surface smoothing. The resulting high spatial resolution enabled the extraction of topographic parameters for local-scale landslide susceptibility analyses, surpassing the detail of existing photogrammetric and global DEMs for the region, revealing geomorphological features previously indiscernible, including past landslide deposits, drainage captures, and structural lineaments. The resulting products represent the first openly accessible high-resolution DTM for this region, made available via Zenodo, thus supporting applications in landslide susceptibility mapping, environmental modeling, and territorial planning. This open-access initiative contributes to bridging the gap in Brazil’s high-resolution topographic data availability and fosters both scientific research and evidence-based decision-making.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

For all 37 Indian states and union territories (UTs), this study creates the Composite index of Environmental Sustainability (CoES), a comprehensive multi-dimensional framework that integrates 36 indicators across 4 sub-indices: climate-energy, terrestrial-biodiversity, waste-pollution, and water-sanitation sectors. We employ an innovative multi-method approach, including correlation analysis, network analysis, hierarchical clustering, inequality metrics, spatial additive decomposition, and hierarchical clustering. Results reveal a distinct ‘prosperity-pollution’ paradox, where high agricultural yields in the northern plains were statistically tied to extreme groundwater depletion and land degradation. Industrial wastewater compliance emerged as a ‘master connector’, bridging terrestrial health with sanitation infrastructure. While the Northeast leads in biodiversity wealth, significant infrastructure deficits in waste processing offset these ecological gains. Although Chandigarh emerges as the national standard for sub-national sustainability, inequality indices reveal a large disparity in forest cover and renewable energy infrastructure. We conclude that without density-focused management, increasing the area of forests is not enough to mitigate climate change.

However, the weight determination in existing assessment practices is characterized by strong subjectivity and methodological singularity, while the classification of DSI also suffers from artificial subjective arbitrariness. To resolve these two issues, this study proposes a hybrid approach integrating subjective and objective weights (AHP—Entropy Weight Method—Linear Combination Method) for indicator weight calculation, and introduces the elbow rule of spatial clustering to determine classification levels. The proposed method is validated using historical disaster data of Jiangxi Province from 2015 to 2024. Results indicate that among the past decade, 2019 witnessed the most severe disasters in Jiangxi, followed by 2020 and 2022. Spatially, extremely severe and Severe affected areas are distributed in northeastern (Shangrao) and northern (Jiujiang), southern (Ganzhou) of Jiangxi; Moderate disaster-affected areas are mainly in the southern part (Ji'an).Mild disaster-affected areas are distributed in a belt shape in the central region.Slight disaster-affected areas are mainly concentrated in the mid-western and central regions of Jiangxi Province. Consistent with the regional actual situation, the assessment results demonstrate the good practicality and effectiveness of the proposed method.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Each drainage mechanism carries unique implications for ice sheet dynamics. Existing automated classifications reduce each lake's drainage behavior to a time-series of scalar values representing the observed water surface-area and classify each lake based on drainage rate (e.g., rapid vs. slow). This scalar reduction conflates physically different drainage mechanisms, which can only be determined through consideration of full spatio-temporal tracking. Here we introduce a human-benchmarked, machine learning-ready benchmark dataset that pairs full Sentinel-2 multispectral satellite imagery time series with human-expert-labels assigned for N=1679 supraglacial lakes in the central-west basin of the Greenland Ice Sheet during the 2018 (n=679) and 2019 (n=1000) melt seasons. The dataset is formatted as per-lake CF-1.8 NetCDF files each containing: six Sentinel-2 reflectance bands at 10 meter spatial resolution and daily cadence over the 153 day melt season (1 May to 30 September); a per-pixel binary cloud mask; co-registered lake water masks (both static and dynamic); and the human-assigned drainage classification labels. We accompany the dataset with a baseline deep learning classifier, demonstrating the utility of the dataset both in deep learning workflows and in extending lake drainage classification from rate-based to mechanism-based.

Despite their scientific maturity and regulatory acceptance, the practical application of these modelling systems outside the North American context is often constrained by the limited availability of suitable meteorological datasets. In many regions, the absence of long-term, spatially representative atmospheric observations represents a significant barrier to the routine implementation of regulatory dispersion modelling workflows.\nAt the same time, global atmospheric reanalysis datasets such as ERA5 (Hersbach et al., 2020), produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), provide an increasingly reliable and globally accessible source of meteorological information. However, the integration of ERA5 datasets into regulatory dispersion modelling remains technically challenging due to differences between the gridded structure of reanalysis data and the specific input formats required by meteorological preprocessors used in regulatory modelling systems.\nThis work presents a transparent workflow designed to bridge ERA5 atmospheric reanalysis datasets and regulatory dispersion modelling frameworks. The proposed methodology focuses on the transformation of ERA5 meteorological data into structured time series compatible with regulatory preprocessing systems such as AERMET and CALMET.\nThe workflow is implemented through a lightweight software toolkit, implemented in the WindRose Studio software environment, which enables the ingestion, inspection and transformation of ERA5 GRIB datasets into meteorological time series suitable for dispersion modelling applications. The proposed approach is illustrated through a real-world application example involving the mechanical-biological treatment facility located in Battipaglia (Southern Italy), demonstrating the full sequence from ERA5 dataset request planning to exploratory statistical characterization of reconstructed wind regimes.\nThe results highlight the potential of ERA5 reanalysis data as a robust and globally accessible meteorological data source for regulatory dispersion modelling, particularly in regions where observational datasets are sparse or incomplete. By providing a transparent and reproducible pathway from ERA5 datasets to regulatory-ready meteorological inputs, the methodology presented in this work contributes to bridging the gap between modern atmospheric reanalysis products and established regulatory air-quality modelling frameworks.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

We image the rupture evolution using multi-frequency teleseismic P-wave back-projection (BP) (0.05–0.5, 0.1–1.0, and 0.3–2.0 Hz) and compare the results with near-fault strong-motion data recorded at Nay Pyi Taw (NPT). Our BP results reveal two key features: (1) two distinct episodes of backward-migrating HF radiation initiated at the Sagaing–Meiktila and Meiktila–NPT fault junctions, with apparent migration speeds of 6.0–6.5 km/s, and (2) a pronounced HF radiator concentrated on a short splay-fault branch adjacent to the NPT segment. These HF radiators are preferentially located near the edges of high slip-rate patches in a P-wave slip model. The near-field displacement record at NPT shows a negative pulse following the quasi-static offset, likely representing a stopping phase generated by abrupt rupture arrest. Our results suggest that spatial variations in fault geometry, including segment junctions and fault branching, played an important role in rupture deceleration and termination, generating backward-migrating stopping-phase radiation.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Our study shows that at least 60% of the accreting metal needs to be equilibrated in order to obtain a chemically coherent Earth, thus favoring a rapid core formation according to the Hf-W chronometer. The dilution factor of this equilibrated metallic mass needs to be 4 (for 100% of metallic mass equilibrated) to 40 (for 60% of the metallic mass equilibrated) in order to obtain concentrations of major and trace element close to the Bulk Silicate Earth composition. At the minimum degree of equilibrium in metal and silicate phases, the final temperature of the core is increased by ~ 250 K compared to the fully equilibrated case. The chemical disequilibrium could be then one factor favoring the hot core hypothesis, but has to be coupled with other phenomena (gravitational energy dissipation, radiogenic heat production) to produce a hot core.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) approaches to enhance this sink are actively being developed. In the interest of understanding how well state-of-the-art global products and models can help to distinguish mCDR signals from the background ocean carbon sink, we use sparse independent data to quantify their local-scale (1ox1o, monthly) errors. Our analysis is for 2000-2023 and uses 5 large regions (“superbiomes”) to aggregate sparse data across high-latitude, subtropical and equatorial zones, and we compare to an ensemble of 10 products and 10 models. The observed long-term trend of surface ocean CO2 due to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations is consistently estimated. At the same time, we find substantial biases for the ensemble means: ±5µatm for the products, and ranging from +1 to +15µatm for the models. Across the superbiomes, ensemble-mean unbiased root-mean-square-errors (uRMSEs) are 19-37µatm for the products and 25-56µatm for models. Seasonality is generally well-correlated to the independent data for the products and for the models in the subtropics, but the largest component of uRMSE also lies at this timescale. Deseasonalized variability has smaller uRMSEs and low correlations to independent data. In summary, local-scale, monthly errors in global observation-based products and models for the background ocean carbon sink are more than 1 order of magnitude larger than the local to regional-scale signals likely for open-ocean mCDR (∼1µatm). Reducing local-scale uncertainty in the ocean carbon sink will be critical if these products and models will be part of mCDR monitoring, reporting and verification systems. Improving the representation of seasonality should be a key target for improving both observation-based products and models.", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

The channel hosts the offshore continuation of the East African Rift System, an active divergent plate boundary that has propagated from the African continent, across Mesozoic continental rifted margins, into Mesozoic oceanic lithosphere. The earthquake and tsunami hazards posed by the network of active plate boundaries in the Mozambique Channel necessitates a regional seismic database to aid scientific investigations, hazard analysis, and mitigation efforts. However, the Mozambique Channel lacks a systematic regional-scale analysis of event distribution, thus limiting advances in seismological investigations of the region. Here, we utilize 256 seismic stations onshore mainland Africa and in Madagascar to detect and locate earthquakes in the Mozambique Channel between 1990 and 2021, to produce its first regional earthquake catalog. The stations comprise two permanent (Africa Array and the Malagasy seismic networks) and six temporary seismic networks distributed across the two land masses. We detected and located 178 high-quality events with a magnitude of completeness of ML3.5, and b-value of 0.76. In the catalog, the events collocate with the known active plate boundaries and associated Quaternary submarine volcanic centers in the Mozambique Channel.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Here, we classify ETCs into two storm types using an unsupervised clustering approach based on storm properties and evolution. The resulting classes differ systematically in life cycle stage at Great Lakes entry. Using bootstrap-estimated risk ratios and risk differences, we show that storms entering later in their life cycle have a higher risk of extreme evaporation during autumn (SON) across all five lakes. In contrast, precipitation responses are weaker, more spatially heterogeneous, and most evident in summer over the upper lakes. Differences in storm genesis location do not fully explain these patterns, indicating that storm evolution at interaction provides a more informative organizing axis. These results demonstrate that storm life cycle stage governs the risk of extreme lake–atmosphere fluxes and offer a transferable framework for storm-centric impact assessment.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

The Rewan Group accumulated in a retroarc foreland basin during the Hunter–Bowen Orogeny, but its chronostratigraphy has remained poorly constrained because previous age models relied mainly on limited, geographically restricted biostratigraphy (esp. palynostratigraphy). Here, we couple detailed lithostratigraphic analysis with high‑density U–Pb detrital‑zircon (DZ) geochronology by LA‑ICP‑MS (ca. 300 analyses per sandstone), calibrated against latest Permian (ca. 252–251 Ma) tuffs and a detrital apatite U–Pb dataset, to establish a robust chronostratigraphic framework for the Sagittarius Sandstone and Arcadia Formation. We compare several maximum depositional age (MDA) metrics and show that maximum‑likelihood ages (MLA) at 10% discordance provide a stratigraphically coherent MDA estimate, with younger single‑grain and cluster‑based estimators used as internal checks and minimum bounds. Preferential zircon picking further show that targeted grain selection enriches the youngest Triassic populations, strengthening the robustness of the resulting MDA constraints. The resulting MDAs demonstrate that the Rewan Group spans ca. 250–233 Ma (Olenekian to Carnian) and that the base-Rewan contact is strongly time-transgressive. In the Taroom Trough (foredeep), fluvial successions young consistently up section from the latest Permian (based on tuff ages) through Olenekian–Anisian Sagittarius Sandstone into the late Ladinian–earliest Carnian Arcadia Formation (based on sandstone MDAs). In contrast, in the Denison Trough (back-bulge), the latest Permian coal measures are directly overlain by Middle–early Late Triassic Rewan Group deposits, implying a hiatus or condensed interval of at least ca. 12–15 Myr based on MDAs. We show that known Arcadia Formation vertebrate fossil‑bearing horizons are late Ladinian (239 Ma) to early Carnian (236 Ma) rather than earliest Triassic, with the younger date also corroborated by a detrital apatite lower‑intercept age of ca. 239 Ma. These revised ages show that the Arcadia Formation vertebrate assemblages do not come from the immediate post‑EPME interval but from the late Ladinian to early Carnian, across the onset of the Carnian Pluvial Episode. They provide a dated framework for testing Triassic continental ecosystem evolution in the Bowen Basin and in comparable basins globally.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Hot, dry and windy conditions raise the likelihood of fires igniting and spreading and make suppression more challenging. With further warming, fire weather is projected to intensify across Europe, yet implications for today’s young generations remain unclear. Here, we analyse lifetime exposure to extreme fire weather across Europe using an ensemble of bias-adjusted and downscaled global climate models. To this end, we developed dem4cli, an open-source Python package that integrates demographic data into climate hazard assessments. We find younger generations are projected to be disproportionately exposed compared to older generations across all warming pathways, while also benefitting most from ambitious mitigation. Across Europe, individuals born in 2025 are projected to experience, on average, around 3 additional years of exposure to extreme fire weather compared to those born in 1950, corresponding to an 80% increase, with larger increases in Southern and Eastern Europe. Focusing on Portugal, under current policies, people born in 2025 are projected to experience nearly twice the exposure compared with those born in 1950, and up to 2.5 times more in the most exposed regions of northeastern Portugal. Under a 1.5◦C pathway, lifetime exposure is substantially reduced. Each additional degree of global warming by 2100 adds around 270 days of extreme fire weather to the lifetime exposure of a person born in Portugal in 2025. These results reveal pronounced intergenerational inequalities in exposure to fire weather and underscore the urgency of ambitious mitigation to limit cumulative exposure for younger generations.", "license": { "name": "No Creative Commons license", "short_name": "No CC license", "text": "This option allows you to opt out of adding a Creative Commons license to your submission.", "url": "https://escholarship.org" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "fire weather" }, { "word": "fire weather index" }, { "word": "lifetime exposure" }, { "word": "projections" }, { "word": "Europe" }, { "word": "Portugal" } ], "date_submitted": "2026-04-29T14:11:41.261712Z", "date_accepted": "2026-04-30T23:44:31.900709Z", "date_published": "2026-04-30T23:44:00Z", "doi": null, "preprint_doi": "10.31223/X5ZZ0R", "authors": [ { "pk": 136208, "first_name": "Rosa", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Pietroiusti", "salutation": "Ms", "orcid": "0000-0002-6815-5231" }, { "pk": 136216, "first_name": "Jessica", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Hetzer", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 136217, "first_name": "Marco", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Turco", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 136218, "first_name": "Amaury", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Laridon", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 136219, "first_name": "Quentin", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Lejeune", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 136220, "first_name": "Sergio", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Prudencio Montano", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 136221, "first_name": "Dominik", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Paprotny", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 21715, "first_name": "Wim", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Thiery", "salutation": "", "orcid": null } ], "subject": [ { "name": "Earth Sciences" } ], "files": [ { "original_filename": "combined-main-si.pdf", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "download_url": "/repository/object/12831/download/22775/" } ], "supplementary_files": [] }, { "pk": 9937, "title": "High-ambition climate action in all sectors can achieve a 59% greenhouse gas emissions reduction in Korea by 2035", "abstract": "<p>Under the Paris Agreement’s ratchet mechanism, countries are expected to enhance their nationally determined contributions (NDCs), including new targets for 2035. For Korea, one of the world’s largest CO2 emitters, the challenge is to strengthen its existing policy framework to not only ensure the achievement of its 2030 NDC but also support a more ambitious 2035 pathway. This study employs an integrated assessment model to simulate Korea’s greenhouse gas emissions pathway under existing policies, including the Carbon Neutrality & Green Growth Basic Plan, the Basic Electricity Plan, and the Core Technology Development Program for Carbon Neutrality. In addition, we develop an enhanced policy scenario reflecting highly ambitious yet feasible measures across all sectors. We find that current policies can reduce emissions by 34% (with a range of 30% to 41%) below 2018 levels by 2035—insufficient to achieve the 2030 NDC. In contrast, the enhanced scenario enables a 60% (with a range of 54% to 64%) reduction without reliance on international offsets. Key drivers include an accelerated coal phase-out, rapid deployment of offshore wind power, restrictions on lifetime extensions of blast furnace capacity, and strengthened zero-emission building standards. These findings provide policy-relevant insights to inform the formulation of a more ambitious and achievable 2035 NDC for Korea.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

The performance of satellite laser altimetry on small, high latitude streams has however been characterized as being poor. This research will be validating ICESat-2 ATL13 version 7 measured water surface elevations (WSE) for the River Dee (average channel width of approximately 40 – 60 m) and the River Don (average channel width of approximately 30 m), both located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland using 15 minute stage records provided by the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA). From a total of 362 ICESat-2 ATL13 granules collected between October 2018 and November 2025, 1,340 WSE segments were obtained from cloud streamed hdf5 files without storing them locally. For the crossing locations nearest to the gauges, atl13 achieved a mean error of −0.17m and root mean square error of 2.36m on the River Dee, and a mean error of −0.92m and root mean square error of 1.36m on the River Don. The major methodology issue was with the ATL13 V7 segment quality field: column 0 is a packed bitmask (observed values 9–6050), not a simple accept/reject flag as in previous versions; therefore, quality filtering must use columns 1–3. The gauge datum for each location is confirmed through the SEPA station record (Park: 22.59 m AOD; Inverurie: 48.1 m AOD). Therefore, these results show that atl13 V7 can measure WSE on rivers that are close to the atl13 nominal width threshold and represent the first published validation benchmarks for ICESat-2 on Scottish rivers.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-SA 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

This report provided a thorough, data-driven evaluation of the water, sanitation, and hygiene (WaSH) in all 37 Indian states and union territories (UTs) using 25 indicators. Pearson’s correlation, network analysis, hierarchical clustering, principal component analysis, data envelopment analysis, Theil inequality, and spatial additive decomposition were all included in this multi-methodological framework. Results showed that, in contrast to the varied topographical constraints of larger states, lower administrative scales enable more consistent service delivery. A crucial ‘construction-outcome paradox’ was found, showing improvements in physical infrastructure do not always transfer into improvements in public health, especially when it comes to childhood stunting and nutritional outcomes. Functional school restrooms for girls were identified by network analysis as a key ‘bridge node’ and strategic force multiplier for integrated sub-national development. High-GDP states frequently showed a significant ‘hygiene-economy gap’ in behavioral indicators and waste processing, while spatial breakdown reveals spatially infectious ‘coldspots’ in the Northeast.

It typically requires synchronous station recordings and assumes uniform noise source distributions. Higher-order correlations, such as the re-correlation of direct waves (C2), enable imaging with asynchronous data and have been shown to improve an incomplete source distribution. Using field data and simulations, we show, however, that C2 surface wavefields are highly sensitive to the original source distribution and even amplify the effects associated with the directional incidence. This can lead to systematic errors in the obtained velocity estimates and the downstream subsurface images. Tested strategies for selecting auxiliary stations in the re-correlation process do not mitigate this bias but can introduce additional wavefield distortions. Local and far-field imaging approaches using higher-order C2 correlation wavefields are affected by significant and systematic velocity estimation errors. Our results show that the re-correlation of direct waves is not an all-purpose correlation wavefield enhancement technique, and highlight the need for a careful consideration of source effects for improved imaging.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

A statistical rock physics inversion workflow is implemented to efficiently estimate source rock properties from seismic and well-log data and quantify associated uncertainty. A thermal-maturation-dependent rock physics model is calibrated through Monte Carlo simulation to link source rock parameters with elastic properties. Weighted Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) integrates prior petrophysical knowledge, model calibration errors, and measured elastic data to estimate posterior distributions of source rock properties. The workflow is first validated through well-log inversion, showing posterior updates in source rock properties. Then the workflow is applied to seismic inversion after outlier detection using a robust Mahalanobis distance method, generating spatially coherent 2D distributions of rock properties in the Goldwyer III of the Canning Basin, consistent with well-log observations. Sensitivity analysis identifies porosity, kerogen, and illite as the most influential parameters. The workflow provides a robust, uncertainty-aware framework for source-rock property estimation.<br><br>This manuscript has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Applied Geophysics.

While carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is increasingly viewed as necessary to meet these targets, questions remain about the optimal scale and timing of deployment when both costs and climate damages are considered. Here we present MACROM, an optimal control climate-economic model that identifies cost-optimal pathways for deploying emissions reduction and CDR to achieve the 1.5°C target by 2100. MACROM minimises the combined costs of climate action and temperature-related economic damages, while targeting a specific temperature goal and year. We examine cost-optimal pathways across five Shared Socioeconomic Pathways, finding that immediate, large-scale deployment of both emissions reduction and CDR minimises costs across all scenarios. Optimal solutions require 492-1,894 GtCO2 of emissions reduction and 394-1,374 GtCO2 of CDR by 2100, with CDR volumes well beyond current feasibility estimates. Temperature-related damages comprise 66-90% of total costs, far exceeding abatement expenditure. Sensitivity analysis reveals that discount rate and economic damage coefficients are the primary drivers of cost variability, while CDR and emissions reduction costs exert minimal influence. Our results demonstrate that even with unlimited CDR capacity, immediate emissions reduction remains essential for cost-effective climate action to achieve the Paris Agreement target this century.", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Based on the ERA5 model-level reanalysis data (1979–2024), a global-scale assessment of the response of AD evolution to global warming has been revealed for the first time. The occurrence probability, strength, and top height of AD all exhibit an increasing trend over mid- to low-latitude oceans. Analysis of underlying physical mechanisms indicates that this long-term trend is highly coupled with the continuous increase in atmospheric static stability within the lower marine atmosphere in the context of global warming. While interannual variability—typified by the El Niño–Southern Oscillation—modulates the amplitude of these anomalies, the long-term trajectory is overwhelmingly dictated by the secular trend. Ultimately, continuous warming is shifting the marine atmospheric background state toward a regime favoring more frequent and intense ducting, with profound implications for maritime BLOS communication and radar detection.", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

However, procedures for translating this sensitivity into reliable subsur-\nface velocity models remains poorly understood. Motivated by these observations,\nwe investigate the feasibility of using low-frequency Scholte-wave travel-time adjoint\ntomography to construct long-wavelength offshore shear-wave velocity (VS ) models\nsuitable as starting models for elastic full-waveform inversion (E-FWI). Using a 2-D\nsynthetic model that includes an ocean layer and a realistic, laterally variable salt\nbody, we simulate empirical Green’s functions recorded by dense OBN arrays and compute travel-time misfit kernels for both background and true VP –ρ parameteriza-\ntions, starting from a background VS model with large (∼50%) perturbations relative\nto the true model. Fr´echet-kernel analyses confirm that Scholte waves are dominantly\nsensitive to VS variations, with only weak indirect dependence on VP and ρ. The to-\nmographic inversion employs a multimodal strategy that combines fundamental and\nhigher-order Scholte modes within a hierarchical frequency-stepping scheme. Even\nwhen all parameters are initialized from the background, the inversion recovers the\noverall salt geometry and VS structure reasonably well, demonstrating that large-scale\nVS recovery is achievable without the true VP –ρ contrasts. Incorporating the correct\nVP and ρ distributions further improves depth focusing and reduces parameter trade-\noffs, yielding enhanced vertical resolution. The recovered VS models reproduce the\nlong-wavelength salt geometry, with intermediate-depth velocities estimated within\n∼10% of the true values, although structures deeper than ∼6 km and shallower than\n∼2 km remain underconstrained within the tested 0.10–0.45 Hz band. These results\ndemonstrate that low-frequency Scholte-wave adjoint tomography provides a robust,\npractical pathway for constructing reliable long-wavelength VS models and a physi-\ncally consistent foundation for initializing E-FWI in complex offshore environments.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Following ISIMIP3b, historical baselines (1960–2014) and three combined socioeconomic–climate scenarios (2015–2100; SSP1-RCP2.6, SSP3-RCP7.0, SSP5-RCP8.5) are simulated with five GCMs, supporting robust detection and impact assessment of future change.

The approach accounts for variability in petrological parameters from rock physics inversion, paleo-erosion magnitudes, organic facies properties, and boundary conditions to simulate source rock properties such as vitrinite reflectance, transformation ratio, temperature, and pore pressure. Application to the Goldwyer III unit in the Canning Basin, Australia, reveals that the source rock is within the oil to wet gas window, with substantial but incomplete transformation in the studied well locations. Sensitivity analysis identifies Cretaceous erosion and heat flow as the dominant controls on thermal maturity, while the transformation ratio is also strongly influenced by the hydrocarbon generation kinetics model. Comparison with rock physics inversion and Tmax-based maturity calculations demonstrates that Monte Carlo basin modeling significantly reduces uncertainty by incorporating geological constraints and process-based modeling. This integrated framework improves the reliability of source rock property assessments and offers a valuable tool for exploration risk reduction.</p>\n<p>This manuscript has been accepted for publication in Marine Geoscience and Energy Resources.

This study presents 11 austral summer seasons (AS 2015-2016 to AS 2025-2026) assessment of supraglacial melt pond dynamics and their mechanical implications for the Nivlisen Ice Shelf grounding zone using Landsat-8/9 imagery combined with in-situ validation from the 44th Indian Scientific Expedition to Antarctica (ISEA-44). Supraglacial melt pond depths were retrieved from multispectral imagery and integrated into an Euler–Bernoulli flexural framework to estimate bending stresses, hydrostatic forcing, and the resulting stress intensity factors (Ktotal) across a network of ten major ponds. Two prominent hydrological events were identified: an extreme localized ponding episode in 2017 (maximum depth 6.92 m) and a spatially extensive meltwater event in January 2026 characterized by high thickness normalized energy (En = 97.81 MJ m⁻¹). Field validation using a Keller DCX-22 pressure transducer indicates that satellite retrievals underestimate pond depth by approximately 27.6% due to spatial averaging within 30 m pixels over concave pond bathymetry. Despite this conservative bias, calculated stress intensities reach up to 0.61 MPa m¹ᐟ², exceeding the commonly reported fracture toughness range for glacier ice (0.1-0.4 MPa m¹ᐟ²). These results suggest that episodic supraglacial melt ponding can generate stress conditions favorable for hydrofracture initiation in the Nivlisen grounding zone sector. The study demonstrates the value of combining long-term satellite observations with field validation to assess the evolving mechanical vulnerability of Antarctic ice shelves.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Evaluation of modeling approaches helps identify the strength and weakness of a model to meet end-user requirements. However, traditional model evaluations only focus on the technical performance of a model, whereas very few studies have been conducted to quantitatively evaluate practical constraints for model applications. Therefore, this study proposed a quantitative model evaluation framework, to analyze tradeoffs between scientific reliability and practical feasibility of four process-based urban stormwater quality models. These models were based on different levels of spatial discretization, including lumped, sub-catchment, UHE and grid based approaches; test simulations were applied to an urban catchment near Paris. Six criteria were introduced to quantitatively assess the characteristics of modeling approaches, including (1) match to observation, (2) forecast accuracy, (3) forecast variability, (4) data accessibility, (5) computational costs, and (6) model reusability. The results showed that the lumped model was the best tradeoff between scientific reliability and practical feasibility for the study case. Moreover, the greater spatially distributed exponential build-up/wash-off processes from the lumped to sub-catchment based model could only improve the numerical approximation of simulations to observations at the outlet, but performed much less well in other scientific reliability aspects. Which implies that these processes may not properly represent mechanisms for stormwater quality dynamics at the catchment scale. In addition, it was suggested that complex grid based models should work together with advanced parameter calibration approaches, in order to achieve good scientific reliability for research purposes. In perspective, quantitative evaluation of the stakeholder participation throughout the modeling processes could help to improve model-based outcomes with more adaptive stakeholder engagement.", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-SA 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

The coupling strength between the MJO phase and local rainfall is routinely used to justify their application. Whether coupling strength alone guarantees diagnostic skill — or whether the nature of the underlying convective regime is the additional governing condition — has not been examined. We introduce CPAdry, the Conditional Probability Anomaly for strongly suppressive MJO phases, and evaluate it across seven tropical sites spanning the Indo-Pacific and tropical Africa. Where the MJO exerts direct convective envelope control — Darwin (η² = 7.5%) and Dili (η² = 6.7%) — CPAdry achieves robust precursor skill at 5–15 day lead times (AUC 0.69–0.76). Where remote teleconnections govern, or where MJO-rainfall coupling is structurally absent, skill is negligible regardless of coupling magnitude. The sharpest demonstration is Colombo — the strongest-coupled site (η² = 11.2%) — which yields AUC indistinguishable from random (0.50). Coupling strength is necessary but insufficient. Convective regime contingency is the additional governing condition. These results formalise the active-versus-passive modulation principle: CPAdry detects failures of direct local MJO inhibition but not the absence of remotely modulated convective enhancement. This asymmetry holds within individual sites — suppression failure AUC 0.69–0.76, enhancement failure AUC 0.52–0.55 — and is structural: a designed regime-conditioning falsification test failed to recover wet-phase skill (the best conditioned AUC was 0.569, with the remaining AUCs 0.06 below the rolling baseline). A coupling–contingency threshold near η² ≈ 5–6% demarcates the transition from direct-envelope-passage to remote-teleconnection regimes. Below it, skill collapses to chance level regardless of coupling magnitude. Independent Bureau of Meteorology gauge validation at Darwin corroborates and modestly strengthens all reanalysis-derived estimates. Projected changes in MJO amplitude, propagation speed, and Maritime Continent barrier penetration under warming are likely to shift this threshold geographically — making the η² ≈ 5–6% boundary condition a practical benchmark for monitoring the climate-driven evolution of MJO diagnostic utility.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Analysis of 146 samples from 13 coal basins demonstrates that conventional geochemical proxies (V/Ni, Ni/Co, U/Th, V/Cr) are unreliable for paleoenvironmental interpretation, whereas intra-basin calibration with 5–7 petrographically characterized samples achieves >94% accuracy in distinguishing coal facies formed under oxidizing versus reducing conditions. The method is validated on independent datasets from the USA, Turkey, Norway, and China (>200 samples). Twelve geochemical basin types are identified, including a newly recognized Marine Li-B type characterized by elevated critical metals (Li, B, Sr) associated with marine-influenced depositional environments. For As-rich basins, V/As normalization is proposed; for high-Al basins (e.g., North China), normalization to Si is recommended. A two-stage approach combining local petrographic calibration with geochemical screening reduces exploration costs by 85–90%. The study contributes to coal facies analysis, critical metal resource assessment (Li, V, Sr), and provides recommendations for updating ICCP, ASTM, and ISO standards.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

It simulates interactions between human activities (agricultural, domestic and industrial withdrawals, regulations of water uses) and ecological processes (crop growth, plant evapotranspiration and water flow). To simulate the water cycles at the sub-watershed level, the representations of hydrological processes in SWAT are analysed and re-implemented in MAELIA. \nIn this paper, we discussed some of the design choices, simplifications (e.g. overland flow, soil temperature, perched water table and bypass flow are not simulated) and modifications (e.g. different methods of generating HRUs, elevation bands, snow water are calculated in the sub-basin loops etc.) we made in order to integrate SWAT hydrological formalisms: surface-runoff, soil water, snow water, groundwater, evapotranspiration and water-routing. Otherwise, MAELIA use some specific processes for simulating crops growth (Jeud’O model), weather generator (SAFRAN model) and water management (Multi-agents). The MAELIA platform was tested on a 6000 km2 watershed at the upstream part of Adour-Garonne-Basin in south-west of France for a 10-years period (2000-2009). The results show that the MAELIA platform reasonably reproduces stream flow hydrograph for a long-term simulation, the effects of water management restrictions are well represented, especially during the low-water periods. Sensibility analysis shows that some parameters in MAELIA are less influential comparing with SWAT model (base-flow and soil properties parameters).

We present GIS~Chat, an open-source suite of three plugins that embed a Large Language Model (LLM) chat panel directly inside ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, and ESA SNAP Desktop. The user describes a desired operation in natural language; the plugin supplies five workspace contexts (open layers, bands, coordinate reference systems, selections) to the LLM, which generates and executes the corresponding platform-specific code through a tool-calling mechanism. As of version 1.1, GIS Chat integrates with Google Earth Engine (GEE), enabling users to query, process, and download satellite imagery and geospatial datasets directly from the chat panel without writing any GEE Python code. GIS Chat supports five LLM back-ends - including Google's Gemini and Ollama, whose adoption requires no paid subscription. By covering major desktop GIS/remote-sensing platforms with a single architectural pattern, GIS Chat lowers the entry barrier for non-programmers and thus aspires to provide a consistent conversational workflow regardless of the underlying software.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Recent auto-calibration approaches using stochastic optimization or machine learning have shown promise, but they frequently suffer from limited physical interpretability, high computational demand, or the absence of physically con-sistent routing formulations, restricting their applicability to spatially distributed models. In this study, we present an end-to-end differentiable, gradient-based auto-calibration framework for the PCRaster-based PyGDM glacio-hydrological model. The framework integrates a physically consistent, mass-conserving routing scheme based on an eight-direction flow network, im-plemented in TensorFlow and optimized using Accelerated Linear Algebra (XLA). This formulation enables gradient propa-gation through all hydrological processes, including surface runoff generation, subsurface flow, and river routing, allowing simultaneous calibration of spatially and temporally varying parameters directly from discharge observations. Spatially distrib-uted subsurface parameters and monthly varying surface and cryospheric parameters are optimized using automatic differenti-ation and constrained within physically meaningful ranges through sigmoid-based reparameterization. To address the lack of spatial discharge observations, a flow-accumulation-based pseudo-observed discharge field is constructed to support spatially distributed calibration. The framework is evaluated in the glacier-fed Bheri Basin, Nepal, and benchmarked against a manually calibrated PyGDM simulation. Results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms manual calibration, achieving higher predictive skill during both calibration (NSE = 0.85; VD = −6.56) and validation (NSE = 0.86; VD = −0.06) periods, while requiring substantially reduced human intervention. The learned parameters exhibit coherent spatial, elevation-depend-ent, land-use-specific, and seasonal patterns that remain physically interpretable and consistent with hydrological understanding of Himalayan catchments. The study demonstrates that fully differentiable, physically constrained routing is critical for robust end-to-end calibration of distributed hydrological models. The proposed framework offers a scalable, computationally efficient, and physically interpretable solution for auto-calibration in data-limited, glacier-fed basins, with broad applicability to high-resolution hydrological modeling and climate impact assessments.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Since the 1960s, agricultural production in Brazil has expanded rapidly, driven by global food demand and national economic growth, through two primary pathways: (1) agricultural expansion via conversion of natural vegetation, particularly forests, and (2) agricultural intensification through increased cropping frequency, adoption of agrochemicals, high-yielding crop varieties, and improved livestock breeding. While these processes have substantially increased food production, they have also generated significant environmental consequences, including deforestation, biodiversity loss, carbon emissions, soil degradation, and water pollution. In the context of a growing global population, rising global food demand, and climate change, reconciling agricultural productivity with environmental sustainability remains a critical challenge. This paper synthesizes the existing literature to examine the dynamics, drivers, and environmental implications of agricultural expansion and intensification in Brazil, providing insights to support the development of more sustainable agricultural systems.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

We introduce Microalgae Carbon Fixation and Sinking\n(MCFS), a marine CDR methodology designed to enhance carbon fixation\nand export to the deep ocean through a controlled process. At the core of\nthe MCFS approach is a tailored substrate: a non-toxic organic and / or\ninorganic structure containing bound stable micronutrients that promotes\nlocal phytoplankton growth within it. It is designed for a dual-phase\nlifecycle: a fixation phase, allowing a sufficiently long duration of floating\nto maximize biomass accumulation (up to 30 days), followed by rapid\nsinking, which minimizes remineralization in the water column (hours-\ndays to reach seabed). The MCFS methodology operates within a\ngovernance framework that includes site selection of physically and\nbiochemically advantageous regions that ensure carbon sequestration\ndurability of hundreds to thousands of years. To address potential\necological risks a threshold-based approach is adapted, consisting of\ndetailed activity design and pulsed deployments. Monitoring protocols are\napplied before, during and after each activity.

Using wavelet decomposition, we isolate irrigation-induced variability at sub-annual scales by comparing Noah–MP simulations with and without irrigation. We then analyse differences between Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) soil moisture retrievals and model simulations without irrigation to identify irrigated areas.\nWe apply this method over the Contiguous United States (CONUS) for the period 2010–2023. Results show that irrigation enhances the power of seasonal and sub-seasonal spectral components of soil moisture, enabling identification of irrigated and non-irrigated areas when comparing observed and modelled soil moisture. Comparison with LGRIP30, an irrigation dataset for the United States, shows moderate-to-good agreement in the spatial patterns of irrigation. Major irrigated regions across CONUS largely coincide with those identified in LGRIP30, while discrepancies increase in areas with weaker irrigation signals or dense vegetation.\nThe resulting SMOS-derived irrigation map suggests spatial patterns of irrigated areas that differ from those represented in static reference maps such as LGRIP30. When used to constrain Noah–MP simulations, SMOS-derived irrigation map highlights alternative irrigation distributions that better reflect actual irrigation spatial patterns and water use.\nOur method provides a scalable, all-weather pathway to detect where irrigation occurs, offering new observational constraints for representing irrigation in land and Earth-system models.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Shishaldin Volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in Alaska, with several reported eruptions over the last 300 years. We synthesize multidisciplinary datasets going back to 1997 and focus our analyses on the 2014–2015, 2019–2020, and 2023 eruptive periods. We find pronounced periods of volcanic tremor, long-period and volcano-tectonic seismicity; thermal anomalies with a radiative power ranging from 10 to 1000MW; 1–2°C increase in the median, low-pass filtered thermal anomaly; SO₂ emission rates ranging from 30 to 287 kt/year; and previously unrecognized surface deformation that includes two episodes of ∼1 cm/year inflation preceding the 2014–2015 and the 2019–2020 eruptions, and deflation prior to, during, and after the 2023 eruption in the GNSS records. The new ground-based geodetic observations allow us to refine previous interpretations of the magmatic plumbing system. Borehole tilt records are best explained by a shallow, 1–1.5 km long conduit centered at sea level with a radius of 150 m. From the GNSS records, we find a pressurized sphere between 2 and 4 km below sea level (bsl) depth, and a 10 km long conduit centered at ∼6 km bsl depth as the most probable inflation and deflation sources, respectively. We propose that the observed seismicity at a nearby fault system can be explained by magma/fluid flow among our resolved magma sources, that modulate the local stress field. We integrate these models and observations into a conceptual magma system model, building upon previous findings for Shishaldin Volcano.", "license": { "name": "No Creative Commons license", "short_name": "No CC license", "text": "This option allows you to opt out of adding a Creative Commons license to your submission.", "url": "https://escholarship.org" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Shishaldin Volcano" }, { "word": "Multidisciplinary synthesis" }, { "word": "Open-system deforming volcano" }, { "word": "Magma system model" }, { "word": "Volcano Monitoring" } ], "date_submitted": "2026-04-02T18:30:11.328748Z", "date_accepted": "2026-04-02T22:16:20.298013Z", "date_published": "2026-04-02T22:16:00Z", "doi": "https://doi.org/10.1007/s00445-026-01970-0", "preprint_doi": "10.31223/X5DR13", "authors": [ { "pk": 134441, "first_name": "Mario", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Angarita", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 7508, "first_name": "Ronni", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Grapenthin", "salutation": "", "orcid": "0000-0002-4926-2162" }, { "pk": 134443, "first_name": "Darren", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Tan", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134444, "first_name": "Pablo", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Saunders-Shultz", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134445, "first_name": "Társilo", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Girona", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134446, "first_name": "Revathy", "middle_name": "M.", "last_name": "Parameswaran", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134447, "first_name": "Taryn", "middle_name": "M.", "last_name": "Lopez", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134448, "first_name": "Pavel", "middle_name": "E.", "last_name": "Izbekov", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134052, "first_name": "David", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Fee", "salutation": "", "orcid": "0000-0002-0936-9977" }, { "pk": 134449, "first_name": "Vanesa", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Burgos", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134450, "first_name": "Jamshid", "middle_name": "A.", "last_name": "Moshrefzadeh", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134451, "first_name": "Tara", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Shreve", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 134452, "first_name": "Jessica", "middle_name": "F.", "last_name": "Larsen", "salutation": "", "orcid": null } ], "subject": [ { "name": "Geophysics and Seismology" }, { "name": "Volcanology" } ], "files": [ { "original_filename": "Multidisciplinary_Shishaldin_synthesis_accepted.pdf", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "download_url": "/repository/object/12468/download/22247/" }, { "original_filename": "SI_Multidisciplinary_Shishaldin_synthesis_accepted.pdf", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "download_url": "/repository/object/12468/download/22248/" }, { "original_filename": "Multidisciplinary_Shishaldin_synthesis_accepted_preprint.pdf", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "download_url": "/repository/object/12468/download/22249/" } ], "supplementary_files": [] }, { "pk": 11742, "title": "HyGage: Solving the Hysteresis Puzzle with a New Streamflow Monitoring Method", "abstract": "<p>The questionable reliability of discharges obtained using the traditional stage–discharge method under gradually varied flow conditions continues to motivate the search for improved monitoring approaches that support water resources management, streamflow forecasting, and multipurpose scientific investigations related to the water cycle.

The methodology integrates measurement elements commonly employed in the index velocity and slope area methods within a unified analytical framework, enabling real time discharge estimation in both steady and gradually varied flows without relying on the semi empirical techniques of the past. The performance of HyGage is evaluated by comparing its discharge estimates with those obtained from established methods.

To enhance accuracy without sacrificing interpretability, we propose a hybrid model, GDM-RNNs, combining GDM with Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). Three RNN types (Simple RNN, GRU, LSTM) are integrated with the GDM. Rather than directly predicting streamflow, RNNs forecast GDM's residual errors. We assessed performance across different data availability scenarios, with promising results. In limited data conditions (one year), GDM-RNNs (GDM-SimpleRNN, GDM-LSTM, GDM-GRU) outperformed standalone GDM and machine learning models. For GDM-SimpleRNN, NSE, R2, and PBIAS were 0.85, 0.82, and -6.21, for GDM-LSTM 0.86, 0.79, and -6.37, and for GDM-GRU 0.85, 0.8, and -5.64, compared to GDM's 0.80, 0.63, and -4.78, respectively.

Analyses showed that the simulated base flows in Wards Brook were reduced because of pumping for both municipal water supplies and for water bottling, and about half of the total pumping impact on the base flows in Wards Brook was from the bottled water extraction. Simulated flows were greater than the minimum recommended streamflow of 2,180 cubic meters per day (400 gallons per minute) throughout the historical period. Simulated groundwater levels at two of three nearby ponds (Round Pond and Davis Pond) were minimally affected by pumping conditions, and effects were primarily from the municipal well closest to the ponds. \n\nSeveral estimates of future projected recharge were used to understand the potential effects of groundwater withdrawals on hydrologic conditions under multiple hypothetical climate conditions. Annual projected recharge rates in the mid- and late-21st century from two climate scenarios (stabilized greenhouse-gas emissions and high greenhouse-gas emissions) were similar to rates for 2016 – 2021. However, monthly recharge patterns for the future periods shifted toward more recharge in the winter months (December, January, and February) and less recharge in April, May, and October relative to 2016 – 2021. \n\nThe lowest mean monthly base flows from the future emission scenarios all remain larger than the minimum recommended streamflow and indicate no long-term declines in flow relative to historical conditions. However, simulated base flows during hypothetical 3-year drought scenarios declined below minimum recommended streamflow during the summer months in the stabilized- and high-emission scenarios in the mid-21st century. Although water is generally plentiful in the Wards Brook valley, reduced pumping may be needed to maintain streamflows in Wards Brook under future climate conditions similar to modeled drought scenarios. \n", "license": { "name": "No Creative Commons license", "short_name": "No CC license", "text": "This option allows you to opt out of adding a Creative Commons license to your submission.", "url": "https://escholarship.org" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "groundwater" }, { "word": "groundwater flow" }, { "word": "MODFLOW" }, { "word": "Groundwater Model" }, { "word": "New Hampshire" }, { "word": "Miane" }, { "word": "Fryeburg" }, { "word": "Saco River" }, { "word": "water availability" }, { "word": "groundwater recharge model" }, { "word": "soil water balance" } ], "date_submitted": "2026-02-12T14:18:30.640510Z", "date_accepted": "2026-02-14T07:48:02.666480Z", "date_published": "2026-02-13T10:50:00Z", "doi": null, "preprint_doi": "10.31223/X5KN1M", "authors": [ { "pk": 130325, "first_name": "John", "middle_name": "R.", "last_name": "Mullaney", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 112095, "first_name": "Janet", "middle_name": "R.", "last_name": "Barclay", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 126499, "first_name": "Jennifer", "middle_name": "S", "last_name": "Stanton", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 130326, "first_name": "Carl", "middle_name": "S", "last_name": "Carlson", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 130327, "first_name": "Madeleine", "middle_name": "J", "last_name": "Holland", "salutation": "", "orcid": null } ], "subject": [ { "name": "Environmental Sciences" } ], "files": [ { "original_filename": "Preprint_WardsBrook_GroundwaterWithdrawalEffects.pdf", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "download_url": "/repository/object/11775/download/21217/" } ], "supplementary_files": [ { "url": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P1GZFYBK", "label": "MODFLOW 6 datasets for a groundwater-flow model in the Saco River basin, New Hampshire and Maine" }, { "url": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P90QS3H2", "label": "Soil-Water-Balance (SWB) model archive used to simulate potential recharge with projections for future climate scenarios, Saco River Basin, Maine and New Hampshire" } ] }, { "pk": 11751, "title": "Aerosol from the Asian monsoon ubiquitous throughout the extratropical stratosphere", "abstract": "Asian summer monsoon (ASM) convection efficiently transports surface emissions into the upper troposphere, leading to the formation of the Asian tropopause aerosol layer (ATAL). The ATAL can affect Earth’s climate directly by scattering solar radiation and indirectly by cloud formation. Little is known about the global distribution of aerosol originating in the ASM, particularly in the extratropical tropopause region, where the climate is sensitive to anthropogenic perturbations. Here, we present airborne aerosol composition measurements in the ASM outflow region over the North Pacific. Our analysis demonstrates the important seasonal aerosol transport from Asia into the northern lower stratosphere. Particulate ammonium nitrate and organic compounds are ubiquitous in the stratosphere with a mass concentration of up to 1 μg m−3. This is the first detection of\nammonium nitrate in the stratosphere outside the monsoon region. Together with the results from a global chemistry-climate model, we find that this northward transport of Asian aerosol is persistent from July to September, recurring yearly. The simulations suggest that particulate ammonium persists for several months, significantly affecting aerosol acidity in the lower stratosphere. This highlights the widespread impact of Asian emissions on stratospheric aerosol, with implications for ozone chemistry and the atmospheric radiation budget.", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Here, we characterize emissions from water resource recovery facilities by compiling measurement data and calculating biogas-production normalized leak rates for facilities with anaerobic digestion. For plants where biogas data were unavailable, we developed an empirical method to estimate production using annual data from 43 facilities. However, we find notable differences in production-normalized leak rates from measurement data where biogas data was available (mean: 12% [95% CI: 8-17%], median: 8%) and those where production was empirically derived (mean: 34% [95% CI: 28-41%], median: 23%). Considering different techno-economic scenarios for leak rates and gas capturability, we find the largest 5% of facilities in the United States could recover over $100,000/year/facility in currently forgone revenue by capturing gas by capturing gas leaked at rates as low as 3%; at rates ≥25%, accrued value could reach several million dollars. We conducted a Monte Carlo simulation to determine the financial cost of methane leaks considering existing energy recovery facilities in the United States, with different scenarios for the underlying leak distribution, and find median annual loss could range from $13 million to $42 million nationwide.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

We have examined a range of core diameters and coating thicknesses to assess changes in both absorption and scattering cross-sections. The results reveal that coatings consistently enhance both absorption and scattering properties, with the enhancement in scattering being higher in magnitude than enhancement in absorption. The study compares the optical properties of coated BC with that of OC particle having same dimensions, showing that as the coating thickness increases, the optical behavior of the coated BC particle converges towards that of OC. The calculations for radiative forcing efficiency showed that as the coating on BC was increased, its forcing efficiency decreased, implying that organic coated BC may have a reduced radiative impact in the atmosphere.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

This study provides a new constraint on high-elevation terrace ages through integrated analysis of geochronology, stratigraphy, shoreline modeling, and fault-zone morphology. 40Ar/39Ar step-heating experiments on glass from a tuff in marine claystone of the Argille di Spadafora, NE Sicily, yield reproducible age spectra with a mean age of 0.481 ± 0.019 Ma (± 2σ). The Argille di Spadafora and equivalent marl in southern Calabria are overlain by Pleistocene marine terrace deposits, indicating the terraces are younger than 0.50 Ma. Paleoshoreline modeling at Campo Piale, southern Calabria, suggests an age of 525–590 ka for a terrace at 600–630 m asl: this is an overestimate because it assumes no fault offsets, tilting or structural warping despite geomorphic evidence for these processes. We correlate the 630-m terrace to the marine terrace at 1.0–1.3 km asl based on recognition of a relay ramp between the Cittanova and Sant’Eufemia faults, and geomorphic evidence for fault offset of the terrace. We conclude that marine terraces up to 1.0–1.3 km asl are all < 0.50 Ma, roughly half the widely cited estimate of 1.0 ± 0.2 Ma. The revised age suggests an average uplift rate of > 2.5 mm/y for the highest terrace, and variable throw rates up to 1.0 mm/y on normal faults that cut the terraces.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Geodynamic models based on global seismic tomography generally predict that convective flow at the core-mantle boundary (CMB) spreads laterally away from downwelling regions and towards LLVPs. While this offers a framework for understanding large-scale deformation in the lowermost mantle, it has yet to be confirmed by seismic constraints. This study investigates seismic anisotropy and wave reflections in the deepest mantle beneath Alaska, linking a known reflector to the inferred deformation. To capture large-scale deformation, the analysis utilizes waves with long raypaths through the deepest mantle. Mantle shear direction is then determined using global wavefield simulations that incorporate mineral physics constraints. The inferred North-South shear direction agrees with findings for an adjacent region beneath the northeastern Pacific Ocean, together forming a continuous ~3000 km x 3000 km region where the inferred southward shear aligns with geodynamic model predictions. These results support a first-order framework of lowermost mantle deformation driven by flow away from downwellings and toward LLVPs.", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Previous work quantified such biases for idealized platform responses that were in phase with the wave forcing. Here we extend this framework to the general case of a partially resonant platform response, in which the tilt amplitude is enhanced and phase-lagged relative to the waves, as expected for real-world platforms. We derive analytical expressions for wave-induced ADCP biases under arbitrary linear tilt response and show that phase-lagged platform motion generates biases in vertical velocity in addition to previously reported horizontal biases. These vertical biases scale with the imaginary part of the platform tilt transfer function and depend on wave properties, platform depth, and measurement distance. Biases also depend on ADCP beam geometry, alignment with wave propagation, and instrument orientation (upward or downward). Under certain conditions, a five-beam vertical velocity reconstruction can be formed that is unbiased on average and generally outperforms standard four-beam and vertical-beam estimates. The theory is applied to a Lagrangian float whose empirical tilt response suggests partial resonance at short wave periods. Using realistic wind–wave spectra, we quantify the resulting biases and find typical magnitudes of several centimeters per second for horizontal velocities and several millimeters per second for vertical velocities under open-ocean conditions. Because wave-induced biases depend strongly on platform configuration, we provide an analytical framework and numerical tools to assess biases for individual platforms and deployments.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Saline groundwater intrusion, driven by sea-level rise, groundwater abstraction, and reduced recharge, threatens the potability of coastal groundwater. Yet, the global potential for intrusion remains uncertain. Using a global groundwater model, we assess climate-driven saline groundwater intrusion along global coastlines until 2300 under a mild climate-change scenario. We find that two-thirds of the coastline will be affected by climate-driven intrusion of shallow groundwater between 2025 and 2100, and that it can locally intrude more than 9 km inland by 2300. While topography, aquifer thickness, and porosity define saline groundwater reach, climate-driven intrusion is mainly controlled by hydraulic conductivity and sea-level rise. We assess risk by combining intrusion, coastal populations, and groundwater use.

Results establish that the numerical stability boundary at 15,000 rb/day injection is grid-independent, with both coarse and refined grids exhibiting convergence failure, demonstrating that operational limits are governed by physical displacement instabilities rather than spatial discretization artifacts. Grid refinement increases computational cost by 3.7× (4.19s to 15.57s) and linearizations by 15% (1,289 to 1,492) but does not extend the stable injection envelope. High-permeability systems (2× multiplier) achieve 79% reduction in gas-oil ratio (1,280–1,560 vs 6,153–6,382 Mscf/stb) and tolerate aggressive injection rates, while low-permeability systems exhibit rate sensitivity with optimal performance at 14,000 rb/day. Multi-well configurations reduce computational timesteps by 90% (263 to 24–25 timesteps), demonstrating enhanced pressure equilibration and numerical tractability for complex well architectures. These findings provide quantitative design guidance for CO₂-EOR conversion projects, establishing reservoir permeability as the dominant feasibility parameter while confirming robustness of coarse-grid screening simulations for operational envelope assessment.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Thermodynamic indices alone often fail to explain observed precipitation anomalies in this region because they neglect the limiting role of large-scale environmental dynamics. To bridge this gap, a diagnostic proxy called the Buoyancy Work Rate (BWR) is proposed, which quantifies the rate of conversion from potential to kinetic energy by coupling local thermodynamic instability (ΔT) with vertical motion (ω) forced by large-scale dynamics. The BWR is calculated by vertically integrating the product $-\\omega\\Delta T$ from the surface to the 100 hPa level. Using the PCMCI+ causal discovery algorithm, this study empirically validates the classical thermodynamic energy balance mechanism, demonstrating that precipitation in the NWSA is dynamically controlled, with ω exerting a causal influence significantly stronger than local evaporation. Validation via Tail Dependence analysis (λu) reveals that the BWR achieves robust asymptotic dependence (λu ~0.8) during extreme events, effectively filtering out thermodynamic false positives (e.g., the 2016 event) by incorporating the vertical velocity constraint. Furthermore, autocorrelation analysis indicates that the inclusion of the thermodynamic component imparts significant signal persistence to the index, stabilizing the inherently chaotic nature of pure vertical velocity. Physically, the index explains how dynamic forcing modulates precipitation outcomes across events with similar instability, resolving the contrasting impacts of the 2016, 2017, and 2023 El Niño events. Consequently, the BWR emerges as a physically consistent tool that offers a longer predictability horizon for monitoring sub-seasonal hydroclimatic risks.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

In these settings, primary health care (PHC), the frontline of service delivery, plays a pivotal role in implementing climate adaptation, mitigation, and resilience strategies. Yet, despite growing recognition of the need for climate-smart health systems, evidence on the enablers and barriers to climate-smart PHC remains sparse in South Africa, reflecting broader gaps across LMIC contexts. The study aimed to explore the views of climate and health experts on the enablers and barriers of climate-smart PHC in South Africa. The study was conducted across relevant local, national, and international experts in health and climate change. An exploratory qualitative design was employed, involving 15 semi-structured interviews with purposively selected experts, including nursing educators, policymakers, academics, and health managers, all of whom had demonstrated experience in climate change and health through leadership roles, policy involvement, curriculum development, or relevant research. Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis supported by ATLAS.ti. Four key enablers emerged: public awareness, sustainable infrastructure, professional education, and supportive policy frameworks. These enablers were viewed as essential for promoting climate-smart PHC. Conversely, major barriers included limited awareness, socio-political and structural constraints, human resource shortages, and inadequate research and training. Experts emphasised that climate-smart PHC requires integrated, multi-sectoral strategies and systemic reforms. Building a climate-smart PHC demands a whole-of-society approach that combines education, infrastructure investment, and policy coherence while addressing systemic fragilities. This study provides empirical insights into the social, structural, and policy determinants of a climate-smart PHC. This can inform strategies for workforce development and health system strengthening in LMICs.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

People less than 60 years of age in 2020 have been estimated to experience unprecedented extreme climate event exposures; the risk is even greater for younger generations as the planet gets warmer. This descriptive study aimed to explore how Médecins Sans Frontières’ (MSF) Humanitarian Action on Climate and Environment (HACE)’s climate risk communication between 2020 and 2024 supported MSF’s operational readiness in Kenya and South Sudan. The critical analysis employed a qualitative mixed-methods approach, incorporating documentary review, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions (FGDs). The findings offer insight into both the strengths and the limitations of current practices, as well as opportunities for more tailored strategies that support humanitarian actors in responding to climate-related health emergencies. This study highlights the critical but underdeveloped role of climate risk communication—an emergent area situated at the intersection of climate change communication and risk communication—in supporting humanitarian operations. There is a clear demand for communication that is timely, localized, simplified, and action-oriented—characteristics that are not fully captured in existing frameworks of either climate change or risk communication. Humanitarian organizations, various national and international organizations responding to climate emergencies, are uniquely positioned to contribute to, and benefit from, the development of this field; this is an area of potential research. Ultimately, as climate change intensifies, the ability to communicate risk will be as critical as any medical or logistical response. By contributing to the development of climate risk communications, humanitarian organizations can improve not only their own readiness but also help define new global standards for risk-informed action in the age of climate crises, thus establishing a community of practice.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

We investigated biases in the gridMET ETo product across irrigated agricultural areas of the contiguous United States (CONUS) by comparing gridMET values with ETo calculated from 793 agricultural weather stations. We also used these stations to bias correct monthly gridMET ETo. Results show that gridMET systematically overestimates ETo by 10–20% at most cropland sites, while pockets of underestimation appear in some arid western regions, primarily due to wind speed bias. Overestimation of wind speed was the dominant driver of ETo bias, amplified by positive biases in solar radiation and maximum air temperature and negative biases in humidity (vapor pressure), whereas minimum temperature bias had a smaller effect. Regionally, the relative influence of these drivers varied: in some arid western climates, ETo bias was most closely linked to humidity and temperature errors, while in many other regions, including much of the eastern and coastal regions, wind speed and solar radiation biases were the dominant drivers. Comparison with 79 independent eddy covariance sites showed that the bias correction substantially improved monthly gridMET ETo accuracy at most of these stations. For example, the mean absolute error (MAE) in ETo was reduced at 80% of cropland sites across the CONUS. The bias-corrected ETo also improved accuracy in the three ETo-dependent OpenET RSET models (eeMETRIC, SIMS, and SSEBop), reducing MAE at 47–67% of cropland sites. Moreover, at the cropland eddy covariance stations, monthly mean bias error (MBE) of the three RSET models decreased by up to 9.5 mm/month (equivalent to 10% of the mean monthly eddy covariance ET), MAE was reduced by 1.7–3.5 mm/month, and root mean square error (RMSE) was reduced by 2.6–4.2 mm/month; though the OpenET ensemble accuracy metrics changed minimally overall. Across natural land cover types including forests, wetlands, grasslands, and shrublands, MAE and RMSE also improved for all RSET models. Our findings underscore the need to account for bias in gridded ETo data, which can arise from multiple factors in the underlying gridded meteorological data inputs and methods that we explore and discuss. We also discuss potential solutions, including alternative datasets and approaches for calculating ETo that could better capture climate conditions over irrigated land, and alternatives to the direct utilization of gridded ETo in water-limited regions for RSET modeling. Incorporating bias corrections for gridded ETo can reduce uncertainty in applications that directly use ETo and improve the reliability of RSET models and other water resource applications that depend on gridded ETo data.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Our results support previous work and show that coordination number plays an important role in controlling isotopic fractionation, with bridgmanite (perovskite-structured MgSiO3) preferentially incorporating lighter Mg isotopes into its highly coordinated site compared to periclase (MgO). These two effects trade-off such that the preference is evident across all lower mantle conditions explored, even to the high temperatures of the chondritic liquidus (e.g. Δ26/24MgPer-Bdm is 0.04‰ at 4200 K and 87 GPa). In additional numerical experiments we separate the effect of coordination number from differences in bond length between different phases and these allow us to build an ionic model which parameterises magnesium isotope fractionation as a function of bond length, coordination number, and temperature. This model provides us with a preliminary means to describe isotope partitioning between solid and liquid phases when making predictions of Mg isotopic differences generated during terrestrial magma ocean crystallisation. We find that Mg isotopic fractionation between bridgmanite and melt, at lower mantle conditions, is sufficient to generate detectable differences in the Mg isotopic compositions of a residual melt or solid cumulate phase, relative to bulk Earth. More specifically, we show that isolation of a reservoir of cumulate bridgmanite that is some 3-15% by mass of the mantle could account for the super-chondritic 26Mg/24Mg of accessible terrestrial peridotite samples. Whether such a reservoir can be dynamically preserved over Earth history remains an open question, but our results help quantify possible tests of such a scenario.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

However, important discrepancies exist among the Mg/Ca-temperature calibrations reported for bivalves in the literature. These discrepancies currently limit the use of Mg/Ca for paleoclimate reconstructions based on bivalves and suggest that factors beyond temperature influence Mg incorporation in the shell. In particular, several studies have highlighted empirical differences in the seasonal amplitudes of shell Mg/Ca between two types of environments: river-influenced coastal settings and open marine systems. In this study, we investigate several environmental parameters that may account for these differences, using rearing experiments of oysters in both natural and artificial seawater. First, we tested the influence of Mg speciation in seawater on shell Mg/Ca and showed that Mg is incorporated in the shell regardless of its form (free or complexed with organics). Second, we investigated the sensitivity of shell Mg/Ca to seawater Mg/Ca by artificially increasing the Mg concentration in seawater. We observed an increase in shell Mg/Ca concomitant with the rise in seawater Mg/Ca, confirming the dependance of shell Mg/Ca on seawater Mg content. Finally, we show that a change in diet induces a significant difference in shell Mg/Ca, and that shell Mg/Ca is positively correlated with the Mg/Ca of the diet. Overall, our results suggest that, in addition to temperature, both seawater and dietary Mg/Ca ratios control shell Mg/Ca. These parameters could be responsible for the discrepancy between Mg/Ca-temperature models published in the literature, and should be carefully considered in future aquarium-based and in situ calibration studies, as well as paleoenvironmental reconstructions.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Here, we show realistic future volcanic forcing increases projected regional temperature variability for the overshoot scenario SSP5-3.5-OS and adds uncertainty to biosphere carbon sink capacity estimates. We use intermittent eruption trajectories to derive 300 estimates of future climate and biosphere productivity from a computationally efficient, regionally explicit simulator. Global mean temperature pathway uncertainty relative to the internal component is, on average, 0.32°C (+89%) larger with intermittent forcing. Propagating this uncertainty into net carbon uptake through shared variances between climatic drivers and the biosphere’s response increases regional uncertainty by up to 34% of internal variability.

The Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ) Agreement aims to strengthen marine biodiversity conservation in these waters through marine protected areas and other area-based management tools, environmental impact assessment (EIA), marine genetic resources and benefit sharing, and capacity building with technology transfer. This paper argues that early effectiveness will depend less on treaty design and more on implementation capacity. The analysis identifies three challenges. First, data readiness in ABNJ is weak for policy use. Long-term time series are limited, biodiversity records are patchy across depth and habitat, and baseline setting and cumulative impact assessment are hard to operationalize. Second, implementation is state-centric, but many pressures are driven operationally by private actors such as distant-water fishing and large aquaculture and seafood supply chains. The key risk is not the absence of direct corporate duties in international law, but weak traceability and uneven due diligence when States must translate treaty duties into operator-facing requirements and reliable information flows. Third, EIA in ABNJ faces jurisdictional ambiguity. Multiple legal anchors can plausibly apply, and uneven discretion may allow avoidance or minimum standard selection. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can reduce friction in data use, support early risk screening, and improve transparency by structuring documents and disclosures into review-ready evidence. However, AI cannot allocate legal responsibility, decide jurisdiction, resolve regime overlaps, or create political agreement. The paper evaluates AI as a support tool, not a decision maker. The policy implication is that data governance and capacity building should come first, with AI used to amplify these foundations. The UN Ocean Decade is framed as a practical space to test shared tools, standards, and capacity pathways that can make BBNJ implementation more workable.", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

It is important as a source for drinking water and irrigation due to its good quality. For many aquifers in arid regions, long-term groundwater extraction has put in risk its sustainable use. Thus, it is relevant to understand and quantify processes that contribute to sustainable groundwater recharge.\n\n\nMost recharge to aquifers in arid regions occurs during flood events that happen with a frequency of a few years to decades. Paleo-climatic records show that intensity and frequency of floods have been particularly variable during periods of climate change. Therefore, understanding how floods could impact the magnitude and occurrence of groundwater recharge to aquifers in arid regions is relevant for improving water management strategies and assessing aquifer vulnerability to pollution from surface streams.\n\n\nDirect measurement of infiltration during flood events is difficult, so it is common to complete analyses with numerical simulations. We present results of detailed numerical simulations of infiltration through the vadose zone during flood events. We use the results of the simulations to characterize infiltration patterns and quantify potential for recharge to aquifers considering different subsurface conceptualizations, from simple homogeneous to more realistic multi-scale heterogeneous sediment distributions.

These benchmark paths span 100 Myr, include monotonic and nonmonotonic histories that represent plausible geologic scenarios, and have a range of cooling rates through different chronometer partial-retention/annealing temperatures. Here, we demonstrate their utility by presenting a method for tuning these paths to 11 different kinetics models for the apatite (U-Th-Sm)/He (n=5), apatite fission-track (n=2), and zircon (U-Th)/He (n=4) systems. These tuned tT paths provide a practical comparison of the kinetics models for each system and the data patterns they predict, thereby offering anyone performing thermal history analysis the ability to consider how their choice of kinetics model may impact their data interpretation. The adoption of benchmark paths for evaluating kinetics models and other variables provides a practical way for the thermochronology community to evaluate and communicate the decision making processes that are inherent in thermochronologic modeling and data interpretation.

However, existing knowledge on how patients, healthcare professionals, and governments should prepare for these challenges is fragmented. Climate change contributes to premature mortality, increased morbidity, and exacerbation of pre‑existing conditions across cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, gastrointestinal, neurological, endocrine, and dermatological systems. Additional impacts include climate‑sensitive infectious diseases, mental health disorders, pregnancy complications, adverse in vitro fertilisation (IVF) outcomes, congenital anomalies, and climate‑induced drug toxicities.\nEmerging evidence shows that climate variables—particularly temperature and humidity—can directly affect medication stability, bioavailability, and pharmacokinetics. For example, elevated temperatures may degrade active pharmaceutical ingredients, while humidity can accelerate disintegration of hygroscopic tablets, increasing the risk of dose dumping and adverse events. Extreme weather events may also disrupt pharmaceutical supply chains, compounding risks to patient care.\nThis review synthesises evidence to (i) identify diseases, populations, and medications most affected by climate change, and (ii) anticipate how pharmaceutical interventions will need to adapt.

Major tributaries include the White, Carbon, and Mowich Rivers. In the levee-confined reaches of the lower watershed, loss of flood conveyance due to sand and gravel deposition has been a chronic issue. Over much of the 20th century, flood conveyance was maintained through sediment removal, but this practice ended in the late 1990s. Flood hazard management activities since the 1990s have primarily involved levee removal or setback projects. Assessments of 1984-2009 repeat cross sections suggested that sediment deposition rates were particularly high in reaches with recent levee setbacks. However, there have been no assessments of recent deposition rates since the 2009 surveys. There are also concerns that intensifying flood hydrology or increased sediment delivery from Mount Rainier may exacerbate deposition. However, assessment of those risks has been hindered by limited understanding of watershed-scale sediment delivery and routing, particularly for coarse sand and gravel. \n\nThe U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with Pierce County, initiated this study to improve understanding of sediment deposition in the lower Puyallup River watershed. This work is primarily based on differencing of multiple aerial lidar datasets collected during 2002–2022, supplemented by early 1990 photogrammetric elevation datasets, geomorphic assessments of streamgage data, historical topographic surveys from 1907, and previously collected sediment transport measurements. Analyses cover the Puyallup, Carbon, and Mowich Rivers, but do not include the White River. \n\nDuring 2004–2020, repeat aerial lidar indicates that 1.3 ± 0.3 million yd3 of sediment accumulated in the lower 20 valley miles (VMs) of the Puyallup River, averaging 80,000 ± 20,000 cubic yards per year (yd3/yr). Deposition was observed during both 2004–11 and 2011–20 lidar differencing intervals. This continued a long-term depositional trend that extends back to at least 1977. From 2004 to 2011, deposition rates along the Soldiers Home levee setback reach, the only setback project downstream of VM 20 completed prior to 2011, were approximately four times higher than in adjacent unmodified reaches. From 2011 to 2020, two additional setback projects were completed; volumetric deposition rates over all three setback reaches were similar to adjacent unmodified reaches, suggesting elevated setback deposition in the 2004–11 interval may have been influenced by an extreme flood in November 2006. These levee setback projects increased the local cross-sectional area of the floodway, used as a rough proxy for relative flood conveyance, by 50 to 200 percent above 2004 conditions. If deposition continued at recent rates, cross-sectional area over the levee setback reaches would be reduced back to 2004 values by 2050-90. \n\nDeposition also occurred over the lower six VMs of the Carbon River during 2004–20, though volumes (0.15 ± 0.09 million yd3) were an order of magnitude lower than along the Puyallup River. Relatively lower deposition rates in the Carbon River are most likely the combined result of modestly lower incoming sediment loads, modestly steeper channel slope, and the additional sediment transport capacity provided by two large non-glacial tributaries that enter the Carbon River near VM 5. \n\nUpstream of the depositional reaches described above, 2002–22 sediment storage trends along the Puyallup, Carbon, and Mowich Rivers were predominately negative (net erosion) up to the Mount Rainier National Park boundary. Net erosion was the result of bank and bluff erosion exceeding deposition across wetted channel and bare gravel areas, as opposed to uniform vertical downcutting. Net erosion along these river valleys delivered 3.4 ± 0.6 million yd3 to the river system, equivalent to 190,000 ± 35,000 yd3/yr. Most of that volume was supplied by erosion of relatively low (4–10 ft) surfaces along the Puyallup and Mowich Rivers and tall (300 ft) glacial bluffs along the lower Carbon River. Substantial aggradation from 1984 to 2009 reported by Czuba and others (2010) along reaches of the Puyallup River (VM 19–22) where levee confinement has recently been removed was most likely an artifact of methodologic bias. \n\nThe Puyallup, Mowich, and Carbon Rivers drain five distinct glaciated watersheds on the flanks of Mount Rainier, four of which were assessed in this study. All four watersheds were impacted by an extreme November 2006 rainstorm. Between 2002 and 2008, debris flows occurred in all four headwater areas, collectively eroding at least 2.1 million yd3 of sediment. These debris flows formed distinct deposits one to two miles downstream of source areas, depositing 30-50 percent of the material eroded upstream. From 2008 to 2022, no headwater debris flows were observed and overall rates of geomorphic change in the headwaters were low. Rivers eroded into debris flow deposits emplaced over the 2002–08 interval, but re-deposited equivalent volumes of material within a half mile downstream. \n\nStage-discharge relations at five streamgages on upland rivers draining Mount Rainier show either net channel incision or dynamic variability with no long-term trend over the past 60–100 years. Observations of pervasive river valley erosion and stable or incising trends at long-term streamgages in the upper watershed do not support prior claims of widespread and accelerating aggradation of upland rivers draining Mount Rainier. \n\nErosion and deposition volumes estimated in this report were combined with sediment transport estimates from limited suspended sediment and bedload measurements, estimates of sub-glacial erosion rates, and sediment delivery from non-glacial tributaries to construct watershed-scale sediment budgets for the Puyallup River watershed. During 2004–20, the estimated sediment load entering the depositional lowlands was well balanced by estimated inputs from, in order of relative magnitude, subglacial erosion (33–60 percent of total sediment load), erosion along the major river valleys (25–45 percent), erosion in recently deglaciated headwater areas (7–17 percent) and non-glacial tributaries (3–9 percent). These results are specific to the study period and represent total sediment loads, most of which is fine material carried in suspension. The relative sourcing of sand and gravel may be different than implied by this sediment budget. \n\nDownstream of VM 12, comparison of 1907 and 2009 channel surveys show net lowering of the channel thalweg of 4–12 ft. A long-term gage near VM 22 shows lowering of 4–5 ft through the 1960s. Lowering at both locations was inferred to be a channel response to the substantial straightening, and so steepening, of the river during major phases of levee construction through the early and mid-20th century.\n\nApplication of a simple empirical bedload-discharge power-law relation to an ensemble of model-estimated daily mean discharge records in the lower Puyallup River between 1977 and 2100 projects that annual bedload transport capacity in the lower Puyallup River will increase by 20–60 percent by the middle of the 21st century. Actual changes in bedload transport and deposition rates will depend on concurrent changes in sediment supply and local hydraulics governing deposition. \n\nThis report presents several key conclusions. First, the persistence and spatial patterns of sand and gravel deposition along the lower Puyallup River support prior claims that deposition is fundamentally caused by decreases in channel slope moving downstream. Given this underlying cause and the abundance of sand and gravel available to be transported downstream, deposition is likely to continue for the foreseeable future. Second, despite continued sediment deposition, recent levee setback projects in the lower Puyallup River will likely provide several decades of flood conveyance benefits relative to a no-action alternative. Third, while the rivers linking Mount Rainier to the Puget Sound lowlands have often been discussed as conduits that either pass or accumulate sediment from Mount Rainier, observations from 2002–22 show these river valleys acting as substantial sediment sources, delivering three times more sediment than recently deglaciated headwater areas on Mount Rainier. While the persistence and underlying cause of recent river valley erosion remain unknown, sediment storage dynamics along these river valleys are likely to be a major control on sand and gravel delivery to the lower watershed.\n", "license": { "name": "CC-By Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

The stress perturbation magnitude scales as $\\rho g \\alpha \\ell/4$, linear in surface slope $\\alpha$ and patch length $\\ell$, and decays exponentially into the ice away from the patch over a decay lengthscale $(2Bh/C)^{n/(n+1)}$, dependent on ice thickness $h$, rheological parameters $n, B$, and basal sliding coefficient outside the patch, $C$. The stress decay lengthscale increases with larger ice thickness and smaller basal traction. Combining stress magnitude and decay lengthscale, we define an absolute coupling length as the distance over which the perturbed stress remains above a given threshold, which is largest in the Greenland ablation zone.

Historically, positive ISM rainfall anomalies are associated with warming in WEIO and WPAC, while warming in EEIO and Niño3.4 suppresses rainfall. However, observations after 2000 reveal a marked weakening/reversal, of the ISM response to equatorial Indian Ocean SSTAs, whereas its sensitivity to WPAC and Niño3.4 remains largely unchanged. Using high-resolution Atmospheric General Circulation Model (AGCM) SST patch experiments with idealized perturbations, we isolate the influence of these regions on monsoon variability. The simulations indicate that positive SSTAs in the equatorial Indian Ocean enhance local deep convection, lower-tropospheric diabatic heating, and moisture convergence, redistributing convection away from India and weakening ISM rainfall.

Arsenic (As), Manganese (Mn), Lead (Pb), and Cadmium (Cd) are among these contaminants of concern, causing irreversible developmental damage to children (Pb), as well as cardiovascular disease (Pb) and cancers (As) in adults. Arsenic and Manganese are primarily geogenic groundwater contaminants that can also be introduced to drinking water systems by localized anthropogenic contamination sources. Corrosion of lead-containing plumbing components contributes to much of the Lead in drinking water, while localized anthropogenic pollution can leach into some otherwise clean water sources as well. Cadmium is often used in fertilizers and can be an indicator of anthropogenic contamination. We reviewed published studies reporting on concentrations of As, Mn, Pb, and Cd in Ghanaian drinking water quality to assess the occurrence and potential health implications of these TMs. As part of a larger systematic review, we searched for peer-reviewed literature from PubMed, EBSCO Global Health, and the Web of Science, between November 2019 and March 17, 2025, to retrieve studies published in English after 1968 that assessed toxic metals levels or contamination in drinking water in Low- and Middle-Income Countries. This generated 20,552 studies from the initial search, which were screened down to 3,993 studies for extraction. We selected the 93 studies that measured a TM in Ghanaian drinking water for full-text review and data extraction. We focused on Arsenic, Manganese, Lead, and Cadmium, for which we had the most data on metals with WHO limits. 79 studies reported concentrations of Arsenic, Manganese, Lead, and/or Cadmium. A quality evaluation was carried out for these studies by assessing the suitability of reported sample collection, analysis, and quality assurance/quality control practices, and by extracting information on the source of drinking water, GPS coordinates, and observed concentrations for each TM. This resulted in the inclusion of 93 studies comprising 82,111 samples, with 8,124, 11,882, 6,079, and 6,679 observations for Arsenic, Manganese, Lead, and Manganese, respectively. We found that 18%, 34%, 17%, and 15% of included Ghanaian drinking water samples exceeded the WHO Guideline Values for Arsenic, Manganese, Lead, and Cadmium, respectively. Data were widespread across Ghana, though we found few studies in the regions north of Kumasi. These findings comprise sufficient evidence to recommend preventative action to eliminate such contamination in new drinking water systems in Ghana, as well as to explore potential interventions to progressively prioritize and remediate the most serious existing exposures to TMs in existing drinking water systems.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Here we incorporate experimentally constrained, impact-energy-dependent rock-resistance coefficient into the widely used saltation-abrasion model and evaluate how this modification alters predicted incision across a range of grain sizes and transport conditions. We find that allowing resistance to scale with impact energy strongly amplifies the grain-size dependence of detachment, such that coarse grains remove substantially more bedrock rock per impact. Applying the model across a full discharge distribution to evaluate long-term incision reveals that while impact-energy-dependent rock resistance does not meaningfully alter the effective floods, it shifts cumulative incision toward rarer, high-magnitude events. These results demonstrate that accounting for impact-driven differences in erosional efficiency fundamental alters how geomorphic work is distributed across floods, increasing the contribution of extremes to long-term bedrock erosion rates.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

The data were used to determine the hinge position over eight different time intervals (i.e., SAR Pairs) at an average spatial resolution of 20 meters. The Fimbul Ice Shelf area of interest (AOI) was defined as 301,800 – 561,400 meters East (E); 1,997,480 – 2,235,240 meters North (N), and referenced to the EPSG:3031 WGS 84 Antarctic Polar Stereographic Coordinate System. A total of 75% of the detected hinges were verified through the co-location with large vertical displacement gradients. The grounding line hinge positions varied by up to +/−70 kilometers across the AOI and exhibited a temporal variability of 53-140 km during the time spanned by the data collection. Tidal forcing accounted for only 2.6% of the variance in the hinge position data collected. Seasonal variation accounted for 1.0% of the variance. However, basal melt rates derived from Southern Ocean State Estimate (SOSE) ocean temperatures accounted for 30.2% of the variance. The combination of tidal forcing, seasonal ice shelf dynamics, and basal melt rate estimates explained 71.2% of the variability in hinge position data (Adjusted R² = 0.496; Root Mean Squared Error = 21.91 km). Basal melt driven ice shelf thinning represented 44.5% of the relative importance in explaining hinge position variability, while seasonal dynamics represented 38.6%, and tidal flexure represented 16.9%. Therefore, it is estimated that there are additional factors that represent 28.8% of the variance in hinge position variability that may be related to high frequency ocean variability or rheological characteristics of the ice shelf. Therefore, the findings indicate that the grounding line hinge position for the Fimbul Ice Shelf is extremely sensitive to changes in ocean thermal properties. Specifically, each 1 degree Celsius increase in ocean temperature results in a migration of the grounding line hinge position toward the landmass of approximately 2.5 kilometers. These findings have significant implications for understanding how ice shelves will respond to projected increases in Southern Ocean temperatures (approximately 1-2 degrees Celsius) by the year 2100 and subsequently how sea levels will be impacted by these changes.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-SA 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Ice-core records are therefore crucial for projecting future climate change, however, our ability to interpret them relies on our understanding of polycrystalline-ice microstructures and mechanics. In turn, these microstructures enable modeling of ice flow and large-scale effects of ice-sheet evolution. Since drilling began in the 1950s, the ice textures and climate proxies developed to decipher ice-core records have been analyzed in one- or two-dimensional (2D) spaces, necessitated by the analytical instruments of core-processing lines and laboratories. Here we develop a three-dimensional (3D), non-destructive approach to textural analysis that preserves the natural context of ice and complements standard methods. Our method combines lab-based absorption and diffraction contrast tomography to simultaneously visualize, measure, and spatially correlate ice grains and air bubbles from volumetric and 3D crystallographic perspectives, both lost during traditional sample preparations. We evaluate the representation of 3D versus 2D data and discuss how access to both c- and a-axis directions of grains may help constrain micromechanical models.

This study presents an integrated petrophysical analysis and 3-D geocellular model development for the Sanish field, covering approximately 157,060 acres in North Dakota. A comprehensive database comprising geophysical well logs from 100 wells, routine core analysis from 13 wells, and stratigraphic well tops was assembled to characterize the Upper, Middle, and Lower Bakken members and the Upper, Middle, and Lower Three Forks formations. Petrophysical properties, including shale volume, total and effective porosity, permeability, and water saturation, were estimated using neutron-density log methods and the modified Simandoux equation, with parameters calibrated against core measurements and validated through XRD and elemental capture spectroscopy data. Strong agreement was achieved between log-derived and core-measured properties in the Middle Bakken, while higher uncertainty persisted in the Three Forks owing to its complex dolostone-anhydrite mineralogy. Structural and stratigraphic surfaces were constructed using kriging interpolation, revealing average thicknesses of 14-24 ft for the Upper Bakken, 35-70 ft for the Middle Bakken, and 35-50 ft for the Lower Bakken, with the Three Forks intervals exhibiting greater\nvariability. A high-resolution geocellular grid (50 × 50 × 2.5 ft, 150 million cells) was populated using sequential Gaussian simulation to capture the spatial heterogeneity of reservoir properties.

In wildfire-affected forested areas, the accumulation of woody debris in drainage channels is exacerbated, thereby increasing the potential for more hazardous debris flows. To examine the influence of woody debris on debris flow dynamics, an inclined channel test, allowing the observation of woody debris flow in an inclined channel and its deposition in a horizontal tank, was conducted with highly concentrated woody-debris suspensions composed of clay, silt, woody debris, and water. This study explores how variations in fine-sediment fraction (Cvf), woody debris proportion (Cvg), and woody debris size (Sw) impact flow behavior, including the entry speed (V0) into the horizontal tank, and deposition characteristics such as runout distance (LR), deposit width (WR), deposit thickness (HR), and final profiles on a 20o channel slope. To examine the influence of proportions and sizes of woody debris on the entry speed, an empirical equation is presented relating V0 to Cvf, Cvg and Sw using multiple linear regression analysis. The results indicate that a higher Cvf and Cvg yields smaller entry speeds, leading to shorter runout distances, thicker deposits, and wider deposit extents. The tests of larger Sw generate larger entry speeds, resulting in longer runout distances while producing thinner and narrower deposits. Empirical equations relating V0 to LR and WR are also provided to further demonstrate the influence of entry speeds on the deposit characteristics. Additionally, a strong correlation was found between inclined channel test parameters (e.g., entry speed, runout distance, and maximum deposit width) and rheological parameters (e.g., yield stress and viscosity), suggesting that rheological properties can be indirectly estimated from inclined channel tests. These findings offer valuable insights for improving the understanding and prediction of woody debris flow behavior, particularly in post-wildfire landscapes.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

However, their trait-dependent responses and the resulting compositional shifts during MHWs remain poorly understood. Here, using an advanced global ocean–biogeochemical model that resolves 310 phytoplankton trait types, we show that MHWs act as trait-selective disturbances. Decreases in biomass during MHWs, particularly in the equatorial Pacific and Indian Ocean, are generally accompanied by significant diversity loss and an enhanced dominance of small, warm-preferring types. However, short and strong heatwaves in the Pacific can promote elevated diversity. These contrasting patterns are shaped by the interplay between heatwave characteristics and background environmental conditions. Such restructuring in phytoplankton communities may have cascading effects on the food web and the biological carbon pump, highlighting the need to account for diverse traits when assessing climatic impacts on phytoplankton communities.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Public attitudes toward this trade-off have remained largely unmeasured at the continental scale. This paper provides the first cross-national quantitative analysis of citizen preferences for environmental protection versus economic development and of public beliefs about the legitimacy of extraction governance across 39 African countries. Using the Afrobarometer Round 9 Merged Dataset (2021–2023), comprising 53,444 adult respondents, we operationalize four dimensions of extraction legitimacy and examine the development–environment trade-off using binary logistic regression with individual and regional covariates.\nContinent-wide, 47.0% of respondents prioritize environmental protection, against 43.4% who prioritize economic development. The most decisive finding is a 35.1 percentage-point extraction legitimacy gap, the difference between demand for stronger regulation (76.4%) and confidence that communities receive equitable benefits (41.3%), which is positive in every single country without exception. Climate change awareness is the strongest independent predictor of pro-environment preference (OR = 1.455, p < 0.001), outperforming education, income, gender, and regional affiliation. West Africa is simultaneously the most development-oriented sub-region and the most supportive of extractive regulation. Ghana registers 85.0% support for regulation alongside only 45.9% confidence in equitable benefit distribution.\nAfrican citizens broadly favor regulating extraction rather than ceasing it, while expressing widespread skepticism that existing governance delivers equitable outcomes. This is \"regulate but reform.\" Orientation constitutes the dominant public political economy of natural resources on the continent. Climate change awareness must be systematically integrated into environmental governance communication strategies, and West Africa's development orientation demands policies that credibly link the governance reform of extractive industries to tangible community benefit delivery.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

While channel slope and flow history are known to influence entrainment thresholds in gravel-bed rivers, their interaction has not been explored. We investigate how channel slope modulates riverbed strengthening during low-flow periods. Flume experiments were conducted across slopes spanning more than an order of magnitude (S=5–70 mm/m) with hydraulic forcing scaled relative to slope-specific entrainment thresholds. Across all slopes, sediment flux decreased with increasing conditioning time, indicating progressive riverbed strengthening. Strengthening rates increased strongly with slope, reflecting more effective stabilization by low flows. At steep slopes, reduced hydrodynamic lift forces may combine with ongoing granular rearrangement during low flows to progressively stabilize the bed, increasing grain resistance to entrainment. These results demonstrate that slope exerts a strong control on riverbed recovery following floods. Because strengthening rates scale predictably with channel gradient, slope may provide a first-order parameter for predicting flow-history-driven evolution of entrainment thresholds in sediment transport models, with implications for erosion rates, channel form, and the distribution of geomorphic work across watersheds.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

In the AI era, deep learning serves as a macro-micro cognitive bridge, transforming remote sensing from classical physics to a quantum remote sensing paradigm. Using the energy balance equation, we demonstrate that establishing a closed system of physical inversion equations between input and output variables in deep learning is the foundation for forming parameter inversion paradigms. On this basis, a generalized statistical method is constructed to guide the acquisition of representative solutions required for deep learning, thereby achieving the coupling of physical and statistical methods. Meanwhile, paradigm judgment conditions can improve the accuracy of data collection. Theoretical derivation and experimental results indicate that deep learning achieves physical consistency and generalization in remote sensing parameter inversion. This theory lays the foundation for developing AI parameter inversion models based on energy balance and can also optimize the design of remote sensing sensors. We call this theory and condition Mao's theory and condition. Analysis shows that deep learning, viewing neural networks as quantum integral transfer units, realizes seamless connectivity from quantum interactions to macro understanding, with information processing resolution approaching nature's intrinsic granularity and significantly reducing distortion in cross-scale mapping. Computational power and energy emerge as core production factors, with deep learning as a \"universal coordinate system generator,\" accelerating qualitative transformations in human cognition.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Large-scale mapping of glacier facies from satellite data is therefore essential for monitoring glacier response to climate change and informing climate policies. In this study, we present the largest glacier facies dataset ever compiled for Europe, comprising 31 glaciers, 92 Landsat and Sentinel-2 scenes, 137592 expert point labels and eight classes—five glacier facies (ice, snow, debris, firn and refrozen-like) and three miscellaneous classes (shadow, water and cloud)—encompassing a wide variety of surface conditions. A confident learning method pruned 16% of ambiguous expert labels overall. A compact and straightforward convolutional neural network reached a macro-average F1 score of 82% on the complete cleaned data or 74% on the full, unpruned data, and 82.3±10.5% glacier-wise. This performance remains consistent across different regions and sensors. When the facies products were regressed against World Glacier Monitoring Service records, they showed moderate, yet significant correlation with the surface mass balance measurements globally (r = 0.65, RMSE = 0.60 m w.e., where 1 m w.e. = 1000 kg m<sup>-2</sup> denotes metre of water equivalent) and competitive correspondence for glacier-specific calibration (r = 0.79, RMSE = 0.28 m w.e.). Overall, the dataset and baseline show that large-scale glacier facies classification can be achieved with high consistency. By providing both the dataset and baseline classification models, we aim to support the broader community in developing more advanced methods for glacier facies mapping to enhance our understanding of ongoing glacial changes.</p>", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

This dataset consists of 1210 phase-classified disdrometer DSD records at 1-min at nine significant storm events occurring over a total of four seasons (post-monsoon, monsoon, and pre-monsoon between Oct. 2024 to Apr. 2026. Storm life-cycle phases—developing, mature, and dissipating—are defined on the basis of rain rate evolution and validated against PPI radar images.\nPhase-specific Z–R relationships are derived from the combined dataset: Z = 887R1.62 (developing, R² = 0.891), Z = 840R1.66 (mature, R² = 0.857), and Z = 1021R1.60 (dissipating, R² = 0.868). The overall relationship is Z = 959R1.62 (n = 1210, R² = 0.882), with the 4-year climatological value being Z = 870R1.59 (n = 138,420). Radar–disdrometer comparison reveals a systematic calibration bias of −10.0 dBZ (r = 0.64, n = 36). Quasi-vertical profiles show seasonal variation in bright-band height from 3.2 km (winter) to 5.8 km (post-monsoon), directly explaining the observed surface DSD differences. Independent validation against 15-minute gauge observations during a pre-monsoon event on 16 April 2026 at Kolkata (22.53°N, 88.33°E) demonstrates that the mature-phase Z–R produces the best QPE (RMSE = 3.04 mm, +21% bias), while the Marshall–Palmer default overestimates by +239%.

We characterized how measures of household water access are statistically and conceptually interrelated. Using data collected from 861 households in Beira, Mozambique we used correlation analyses to characterize relationships between measures of household safe water access, and factor analyses to characterize interrelationships and constructs being measured. In a subset of 75 households, we assessed the parameterization and classification of water quality variables, and how variable definitions impact correlations between variables. Correlation and factor analysis showed that the component variables that make up the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP) service ladder measured distinct elements related to water access, adequacy, and quality, and that these component variables offer unique information that may not be portrayed when just presenting the JMP water service ladder by itself. User satisfaction was broadly correlated with many variables, even with microbiological water quality, suggesting “satisfaction” captures a breadth of safe household water access. In the factor analysis, the user satisfaction loaded in distinct constructs, indicating potential to reduce these multiple satisfaction variables. How water quality variables were classified (e.g., binary, raw, or log-transformed) strongly contributed to how they correlated with each other. There was little correlation between E. coli and various pathogens in water. Our research highlights the complexities of relationships between household water access variables, and characterization of these interrelationships inform how to use and interpret measures in research and practice.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Forecast skill for TC track and intensity has been improved by enhanced observations, high-resolution numerical models, advanced data assimilation methods, and applications of machine-learning methods. Yet these improvements have not consistently translated into reduced losses, in part because disaster outcomes depend on many other elements, including communications between weather agency and the public. Therefore, it is not straightforward to observe the damage reduction by improved TC forecast, and the impact of the improvement of TC track and intensity forecast on damage has not been comprehensively quantified using real-world data. In this study, we examine 31 TCs that made landfall in Japan between 2006 and 2023 and quantify how errors in Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) operational TC track and intensity forecasts relate to flood-induced damage. To our knowledge, this is the first nationwide assessment for Japan linking operational TC forecast accuracy to observed TC-induced damages. Our multi-linear regression analysis reveals that along-track forecast error -- distance between forecast and actual positions along the direction of travel -- is positively associated with building and household damages (p<0.05), implying greater residential and structural impacts when forecasted TC positions deviate farther along the track. Conversely, landfall timing and intensity errors show no statistically significant association with flood damage. Despite the unclear causal relationships, these findings imply that further reductions in track error, particularly its along-track component, may contribute to mitigating TC-related flood losses.", "license": { "name": "CC-BY Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Despite its importance, taxonomy depends on a limited number of specialists and on the synthesis of extensive descriptive literature that is often difficult to access. Recent developments in artificial intelligence provide potential tools to support taxonomic work and improve accessibility and efficiency in fossil identification. Most automated approaches have so far relied on deep learning models trained on photographic datasets of fossil specimens. While effective for some microfossil groups, these systems face substantial limitations when applied to macrofossils, which are often incompletely preserved, morphologically complex, and poorly suited to standardized imaging workflows.\nBecause palaeontological taxonomy is fundamentally text-based—relying on diagnoses, descriptions, and comparative remarks published in the literature—Large Language Models (LLMs) offer an alternative framework for automated assistance. Here we explore the application of LLM-augmented taxonomy systems (LATS) to invertebrate fossil identification through the development of a prototype system for brachiopods. The system is trained on genus-level diagnoses extracted from the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, Part H: Brachiopoda (Revised), one of the most comprehensive and authoritative compilations of fossil invertebrate taxonomy. Strategies were implemented to address the brevity of diagnoses, including integration with descriptions of higher-rank taxa and adjustable retrieval knowledge basis.\nPreliminary testing indicates that the system reliably provides plausible candidate matches and handles complex morphological terminology effectively. LATS thus represent a promising approach for developing automated assistants in macrofossil taxonomy, with potential future integration of expanded textual databases and image-based analyses.\n", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Synneusis is typically described as a monomineralic process whereby two crystals of the same mineral adhere in specific low-energy orientation relationships. In contrast, unlike minerals are generally assumed to be antipathetic. Nonetheless, the occurrence of polymineralic synneusis (systematically oriented attachment of unlike mineral pairs) has been postulated but never quantitatively demonstrated. Therefore, the occurrence and characteristics of polymineralic synneusis, and its impacts on the behaviour of magmatic systems, remain poorly understood.\nWe apply spatially correlated microstructural analyses, including electron backscatter diffraction and cathodoluminescence mapping, to test whether polymineralic crystal aggregates can form via synneusis. The abundant mineral inclusions within K-feldspar megacrysts in granites have previously been postulated to arise from polymineralic synneusis, therefore we chose to study examples of this texture from two unrelated plutons. Textural observations confirm that inclusions of plagioclase, amphibole and various accessory minerals grew independently in the magma before attaching to the megacrysts. \nAnalysis of the crystallographic orientations of plagioclase, amphibole, titanite and magnetite relative to their host K-feldspar reveal variably systematic orientation relationships. Plagioclase, amphibole and titanite show distinct suites of orientations within each growth sector of the K-feldspar, while magnetite does not. Titanite orientations appear to be controlled mainly by shape, whereas amphibole orientations cannot easily be explained by shape alone, so may also have a crystallographic control. Plagioclase orientations are tightly crystallographically controlled due to the lattice similarities between K-feldspar and plagioclase. Some of the observed K-feldspar-plagioclase orientation relationships follow established feldspar twin laws, which represent low-energy grain interfaces. However, we also observe orientation relationships that have not been documented as growth twins and are diagnostic synneusis relationships. In particular, the predominance of combined Baveno-type relationships resulting from the attachment of (010) and (001) feldspar faces appears to be unique to synneusis. We infer that crystals encountering each other in the magma attached, and then rotated into more favourable orientations, due to the minimisation of interfacial energy.\nSynneusis has been considered diagnostic of low-viscosity, low-crystallinity magmas, but our results demonstrate that this is not always the case, as the megacrysts grew in relatively viscous, silicic, crystal-rich magma. The occurrence of polymineralic synneusis even in these granitic systems suggests that it may be an important and widespread magmatic process, creating crystal clusters that potentially impact both the rheological behaviour and geochemical evolution of the host magma.\n", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

Wet and dry hydrological conditions are commonly assumed to exacerbate eutrophication by increasing nutrient inputs during wet conditions or concentrating nutrients during dry conditions. However, these events can also activate counteracting processes—such as dilution, or enhanced mixing— that shorten residence time or redistribute nutrients in ways that suppress eutrophication. Here, we evaluate how hydrological variability shapes chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) dynamics across 53 large lakes spanning broad gradients in morphometry, watershed extent, and nutrient availability. Focusing on inflow-dominated nearshore “impact zones”, we used boosted regression trees to relate satellite-derived Chl-a (1998–2019) to inflow discharge, climatic forcing, and watershed characteristics. Inflow discharge, indexed using the Standardized Streamflow Index (SSI), emerged as the most influential predictor of Chl-a anomalies, exceeding the effects of lake surface temperature and direct precipitation. However, overall explanatory power was low (5% variance explained in cross-validation), indicating that hydrological forcing represents only one component of a complex cological system. Both wet and dry hydrological conditions were associated with reduced surface Chl-a relative to intermediate inflow states, revealing a non-linear response in which hydrological variation tended to suppress, rather than uniformly enhance, phytoplankton biomass. However, the direction and magnitude of responses varied substantially among lakes. Together, these findings challenge the assumption that intensifying hydrological variation will consistently exacerbate eutrophication. Instead, hydrological variation interacts with lake structure and watershed characteristics to shape ecosystem responses under changing hydroclimatic conditions.", "license": { "name": "CC BY Attribution 4.0 International", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License\r\n\r\nBy exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (\"Public License\").

High\nresolution is required for the study of smaller scale processes, such\nas submesoscale currents and the internal wave field, in particular\nthe baroclinic tide. Limits of available computing power determine\nthe size of the computational grid, setting the maximum size of the\nmodeled domain. A serious problem arises because internal waves can\npropagate over long distances, providing a remotely forced component\nfor the wave field in any model that doesn't cover a complete oceanic\nbasin. Current approaches in regional oceanic modeling are not\nadequate. The often used approach of radiative-restoring boundary\nconditions that work well for flows at sub-inertial time-scales are\ninadequate to force sufficiently energetic high-frequency internal\nwaves. Prescribed (or ``clamped'') boundary conditions are\nsusceptible to spurious reflection of energy at the boundaries,\nleading to an overestimate of internal wave energy inside the regional\nmodel domain. We propose a combination of a dynamic tuning between\npropagating and externally prescribed boundary conditions based on\nmatching the vertically-integrated, high-frequency pressure flux\nacross an open boundary. We show that this approach provides accurate\ninternal wave energy fluxes at the boundaries of the regional\ndomain.

Where disclaimers of warranties are not allowed in full or in part, this disclaimer may not apply to You.\r\nTo the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to You on any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise for any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary, or other losses, costs, expenses, or damages arising out of this Public License or use of the Licensed Material, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such losses, costs, expenses, or damages. Where a limitation of liability is not allowed in full or in part, this limitation may not apply to You.\r\nThe disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and waiver of all liability.\r\nSection 6 – Term and Termination.\r\n\r\nThis Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License terminate automatically.\r\nWhere Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under Section 6(a), it reinstates:\r\n\r\nautomatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the violation; or\r\nupon express reinstatement by the Licensor.\r\nFor the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations of this Public License.\r\nFor the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so will not terminate this Public License.\r\nSections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public License.\r\nSection 7 – Other Terms and Conditions.\r\n\r\nThe Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.\r\nAny arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.\r\nSection 8 – Interpretation.\r\n\r\nFor the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully be made without permission under this Public License.\r\nTo the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and conditions.\r\nNo term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the Licensor.\r\nNothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal processes of any jurisdiction or authority.", "url": "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Ocean modelling" }, { "word": "internal tides" }, { "word": "regional modelling" } ], "date_submitted": "2026-03-10T01:57:05.328189Z", "date_accepted": "2026-03-10T07:56:35.316435Z", "date_published": "2026-03-10T07:56:00Z", "doi": null, "preprint_doi": "10.31223/X5N18P", "authors": [ { "pk": 132912, "first_name": "Jeroen", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Molemaker", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 132913, "first_name": "Pierre", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Damien", "salutation": "", "orcid": null }, { "pk": 132914, "first_name": "Devin", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Dollery", "salutation": "", "orcid": null } ], "subject": [ { "name": "Engineering" }, { "name": "Physical Sciences and Mathematics" } ], "files": [ { "original_filename": "OpenBC.pdf", "mime_type": "application/pdf", "download_url": "/repository/object/12095/download/21687/" } ], "supplementary_files": [] } ] }
