Across buried sedimentary basins, the dissolution-prone nature of evaporite sequences drives the formation of collapse structures (e.g., sinkholes), fundamentally transforming landscapes at large scales. Understanding where, why, and how such structures form is crucial, given they pose geological hazards that may threaten human safety and infrastructure stability, or may affect subsurface resource extraction and geological storage. Here, we use 3D seismic reflection and borehole data from the Southern North Sea Basin to document giant (km-wide and several hundred-metres deep) collapse structures within the Zechstein Supergroup (Permian) that developed at the basin-scale (>10,000km2). Critically, these structures invariably overlie gypsum buildups capped by thick halite, with seismic-stratigraphic relationships enabling precise dating and facilitating accurate modelling. We propose that the transformation of gypsum to anhydrite during early burial initiated the extrusion of NaCl-undersaturated water, which provoked dissolution of the capping halite, leading to collapse at the depositional surface. The resulting landscape was buried and thus preserved by a potash infilling unit. To the best of our knowledge, the basin-wide development of this type of structures has not previously been described in the stratigraphic record.

Compared with East Africa, Pleistocene pedogenic carbonates in Sudan, particularly calcretes, have received very little attention, particularly with regard to local paleoclimatic reconstructions. Pleistocene alluvial sediments aged from ~230 to <17 ka were deposited along the middle Atbara River in eastern Sudan. Intercalated in these alluvial deposits are paleosols in which different types of pedogenic carbonates occur. Petrographic, mineralogical and isotopic analyses were performed to reconstruct the regional paleoenvironmental conditions. The investigated pedogenic carbonates are appropriate for paleoclimatic reconstruction because they are free of inherited carbonate and diagenetic modification. The paleosols identified in a previous study as Aridisols/Calcisols contain calcrete horizons that consist of an orthic nodular horizon, sometimes overlain by a laminar horizon. Paleosols identified as Vertisols contain slickensides, and disorthic and septaric nodules. The paleosols show stable carbon and oxygen isotope values ranging between -9.12 and -5.12 ‰, and between -7.25 and -4.09 ‰, respectively. Supporting the previous study, the inferred climatic conditions were arid to semi‐arid, with a mixture of C3 and C4 vegetation cover, and paleoprecipitation greater than 350 mm/yr, similar to that of the present-day, with likely higher rainfall during the formation of Vertisols than Aridisols/Calcisols. The thickness and morphology of Pleistocene calcretes in eastern Sudan are similar to those in East Africa, suggesting similar climatic conditions during their formation. Well-and weakly-developed calcretes in Aridisols formed in distal and proximal floodplains, respectively, whereas well-developed vertic horizon in Vertisols formed in distal floodplains.","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\").

First, well-log and seismically-derived elastic properties are used in a statistical rock physics inversion to estimate porosity, kerogen content, and mineral fractions. These posterior distributions capture key compositional variability but provide limited constraint on thermal maturity due to weak sensitivity of elastic properties to thermally controlled changes. To address this limitation, inversion-derived properties are propagated through forward burial and thermal history simulations using Monte Carlo basin modeling. Uncertain geological and kinetic inputs, including geothermal history, erosion, and kerogen kinetics, are sampled to generate probabilistic predictions of vitrinite reflectance, transformation ratio, temperature, and pore pressure. Application to the Goldwyer III source rock in the Canning Basin demonstrates that the integrated workflow reduces uncertainty in thermal maturity while maintaining consistency with geochemical indicators and measured temperature. The results reveal spatial variability in source rock quality and maturity that is not evident from elastic properties alone. This work establishes a practical, uncertainty-aware framework that couples geological, geophysical, geochemical, and geomechanical processes, ultimately improving confidence in hydrocarbon generation assessment and supporting risk reduction in exploration, particularly in frontier or data-limited settings.","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 latest reactivation of the Indian rift system occurred at the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary when the Réunion plume interacted with the Indian plate, leading to the massive Deccan volcanism at 66 Ma. Although the plume-driven rift tectonics has been a subject of lively research over past decades, how a pre-existing rift system can modulate the plume dynamics, particularly in continental settings, remains inadequately explored. This study addresses this problem in the context of the Réunion plume encountering the Indian lithosphere. We develop 2D thermomechanical models to simulate plume-rift interactions, systematically investigating the modes of interactions as a function of plate velocity (Vp) and plume–rift (δ) distance. Our numerical experiments reveal that small δ (< 250 km) or high Vp (> 1cm/year) conditions redirect a large portion of the plume material towards the pre-existing rift, resulting in significant underplating and subsequent melting beneath the rift undergoing reactivation. Increasing δ or lowering of Vp weakens the plume-rift interaction, leaving the pre-existing rift zone almost passive, where the underplated plume materials stagnate beneath the lithosphere with little melting. The model results suggest that the Narmada rift, which was closer to the Réunion plume, caused significant deflection of the plume and its melting with Moho upwraping. In contrast, the Godavari rift, located at a larger distance from the plume, behaved passively, allowing underplating of the plume at the lithospheric base with no significant melting and Moho downwraping, as supported by geophysical observations. Finally, this study provides a new insight into the differential responses of the Indian rift system during the Reunion plume event.

Although studies have demonstrated that gobally, tidal and fluvial planforms are statistically distinct based on meander metrics, there are currently no machine-learning methodologies for classifying channels as tidal or fluvial that do not focus on meander-specific geometries. In this study we present a methodology for classifying channel planforms as tidal or fluvial using statistical representations of channel planforms and machine-learning algorithms. Using a dataset of 4294 tidal and fluvial channel segments (63 channel reaches), we trained three machine learning classifiers (Logistic Regression, Multi-layer Perceptron, and Random Forest) across 69 trials to identify the machine-learning algorithm and variables that perform best at classifying channel reaches. We evaluated the performance of the classifiers at three thresholds based on the percent of channel segments correctly identified in a given reach (>50%, >66%, and >75%). At the >50% classification threshold, all three classifiers attained a 95% reach-scale accuracy during individual trials. However, at higher classification thresholds the Random Forest classifier performed best. Feature importances from the Random Forest classifier indicate that measures of the central tendency and minimum/maximum of the normalized radius of curvature convolved with normalized width of a channel segments play a key role in differentiating between the planforms, with normalized width also contributing to the difference. This indicates that the relationship between width and radius of curvature is more important than width or measures of curvature on their own. This result likely reflects the downstream funneling of tidal channels and the limitation on the sharpness of bends associated with increased width. These methods have potential for application in the study of channels preserved on relict geomorphic surfaces and mixed-energy settings.

We observe that highly systematic trends in metasedimentary rocks allow treatment of protoliths as two component mixtures, which, coupled with mass balance and minimization by a residuals function, permit development of a general algorithm for quantification of melt loss and protolith composition based on the composition of the restitic rocks. The utilization of anhydrous compositions results in melt loss estimates independent of volatile phase, and particularly suitable for demonstration of the role of fluid. The application of this method to restites of the Mount Stafford complex in Australia reveals melt loss with unprecedent detail, and shows that melt loss from rocks of the same metamorphic grade was highly variable from negligible to 70 wt%. The melting mechanism in the complex changed from fluid saturated near the solidus, to fluid fluxed at higher temperatures, and fluid deficient in adjacent rocks. Heterogeneous melt productivity was caused by the redistribution of fluids generated by muscovite breakdown during heating. The overall melt productivity of mid-crustal melting was remarkably high and volume of extracted granitic melt perhaps was similar to the volume of restite.

Despite its prominence and accessibility, its morphology and evolution have been previously poorly understood. In this study we investigate the dune complex through a synthesis of geomorphological, geological, and geochronological methods. Our findings link its development to climatic aridification driven major regression phases of the Caspian Sea during the Late Pleistocene–Holocene. Optical stimulated luminescence dating indicates that dune formation began at least 70 ka during the Atelian regression, with reactivation around 12–8 ka during the Mangyshlak regression. By the early Holocene, the complex had nearly reached its modern height. The Shura-Ozen’ River, which divides the dune complex in two major segments, played a significant role in the complex’s evolution, influencing aeolian sediment transport and trapping material on its banks, particularly on the left bank, where the highest Central Massif is located. Extensive vegetation now stabilizes most of the complex, except for active ridges in the Central Massif. A numerical analysis of wind potential for dune migration, based on meteorological data spanning the past 55 years, shows that sand movement is primarily driven by self-sustaining NW–SE wind fluctuations. Paleowind analysis suggests that similar long-term wind patterns have persisted since the onset of aeolian deposition during the Atelian phase. Our multidisciplinary study sheds new light on the Sarykum dune complex's history and highlights its significance as a dynamic archive of climatic and geomorphic processes in the Caspian region.","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 conduct a thorough, multi-scale characterization of geothermal resources and assess techno-economics for power generation and direct use facilities. We integrate surface geology, high-resolution gravity, borehole geophysical logs, and core data for subsurface characterization and carry out detailed techno-economics, considering enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) and closed-loop geothermal systems (CLGS) technologies. Techno-economic analysis shows that the geothermal resource development in Presidio County could be economically viable for a wide range of project scenarios for power generation and direct use, with a project lifetime of 20-30 years. However, the economic outlook of geothermal project developments in the study area are varied and range from poor to excellent, depending on the target location, reservoir depth, temperature, completion technologies, and local demand for utilization.
\nThe Border region of the study area has the best quality geothermal resources. The geothermal gradient in the Border region is significantly high (~47°C/km), indicating a shallow drilling depth to reach a target temperature. The Interior Region has a cooler geothermal gradient of ~29°C/km. Not much information is available from the Big Bend Region, regarding the deep geothermal potential. New higher resolution geophysical surveys and drilling new wells can help improve our understanding of the local geology and available geothermal resources in the study area.

This study examines two-phase flow for hydrogen, methane, and their mixtures in fractured limestone from Belgium's Loenhout site. Experiments at 10 MPa and 65°C show that while drainage produces similar average gas saturations across gases, invasion patterns critically depend on gas properties and fracture geometry. Rougher fractures promote more frequent snap-off events leading to a larger number of smaller hydrogen ganglia compared to methane. Wider fractures yield higher initial gas saturation but lower recovery due to enhanced trapping. During imbibition, gas type exerts a stronger effect: hydrogen achieves near-total recovery in smooth fractures, whereas methane and mixtures leave trapped clusters. In rough fractures, both gases are retained, but hydrogen forms more interconnected ganglia. These results highlight pore-scale mechanisms influencing hydrogen recovery efficiency in fractured storage sites.

This study explores the feasibility of using modified light duty vehicles to self-sustain electricity generation by producing wood chips for wood gasification. A 2004 Ford Falcon Fairmont was modified to power a woodchipper and an electrical generator. The vehicle successfully produced wood chips suitable for gasification with an energy return on investment (EROI) of 3.7 and sustained a stable output of 20 kW electrical power. Scalability analyses suggest such solutions could provide electricity to the water sanitation sector, equivalent to 4% of global electricity demand, if production of woodchippers was increased post-catastrophe. Future research could investigate the long-term durability of modified vehicles, scalability of wood gasification, and alternative electricity generation methods in GCIL scenarios. This work provides a foundation for developing resilient, decentralized energy systems to ensure the continuity of critical services during catastrophic events, leveraging existing vehicle infrastructure to enhance disaster preparedness.

As such, the ability to reliably monitor stormwater outflow in many locations could provide valuable information for water managers. However, in most cases stormwater outlets have not been designed or installed to facilitate the measurement of stormflow, leaving traditional contact-based velocity and water level measurement techniques ill-suited to capture highly variable and turbulent flows. We propose a non-contact alternative approach based on computer vision, capable of quantifying discharge from images and videos obtained from cameras facing the outlets. In variable lighting and on often ‘noisy’ images and videos, this approach came with its own set of challenges, and classical computer-vision techniques did not perform reliably and accurately. To solve these issues, we used the combination of computer vision and machine learning (CV-ML) techniques, using the round geometry of culverts to our advantage. In our approach, the water stage at the outlet is determined by calculating the difference between the height of the extracted shape of a round culvert and the height of the empty area above water. Then, using a checker board as a reference object, the measurements from images are converted into real-world measurements. Finally, as a first approximation using rating curves, the calculated water stage can be converted into discharge values. To evaluate the model's performance on stage measurements, two methods were considered. In the first, the uncertainty on measurements was assessed by comparing the culvert diameter with that of our CV-ML model calculated value. As a result, the model was on average capable of making measurements within $\\pm 1$ cm approximately 80\\% of the times. In the second method, we compared measurements from our model to those `visually' made from images obtained during a flow event. For this method also the model estimated 63\\% of the stage values within $\\pm 1$ cm and 96\\% within $\\pm 2$ cm. These results could be considered as satisfactory, especially considering the complexity of the field 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\").

Here, we develop a mathematical tool to incorporate multiscale physics, capable of describing both deterministic and chaotic systems, to model earthquake rupture. Our findings suggest that the chaotic behavior of seismic dynamics, that is, its sensitivity to initial and boundary conditions, is inversely related to its magnitude. To validate this hypothesis, we performed numerical simulations with heterogeneous fault conditions. Our results indicate that large earthquakes, usually occurring in regions with higher residual energy and lower b-value (i.e., the exponent of the Gutenberg-Richter law), are less susceptible to be affected by perturbations. This suggests that a higher variability in earthquake magnitudes (larger b-values) may be indicative of structural complexity of the fault network and heterogeneous stress conditions. We compare our theoretical predictions with the statistical properties of seismicity in Southern California; specifically, we show that our model agrees with the observed relationship between the b-value and the fractal dimension of hypocenters. The similarities observed between simulated and natural earthquakes support the hypothesis that large events may be less chaotic than smaller ones; hence, more predictable.

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses were employed in characterizing both the C-PA and the M-PA. The removal efficiency of up to 86.9 and 90.8 was observed respectively for Cd (II) and Zn (II) at the optimal conditions. Florry-Huggins, Langmuir, Temkin, Dubinin–Radushkevich and Freundlich models were utilized in explaining the equilibrium isotherm of the sorption, and Florry-Huggins best described Zn (R2 = 0.999) while Cd was best described by Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.997). The kinetics of the sorption process were assessed and pseudo-first order was the best fit in describing Cd (II) uptake (R2 = 0.965), while Zn (II) was best fitted to the pseudo-second-order kinetics (R2 = 0.928). The thermodynamic variables revealed an endothermic sorption process for both adsorbates, with a reduction in spontaneity on temperature increase for Zn (II) while the reverse was observed for Cd (II). A single-stage adsorption experiment was performed using the optimal batch adsorption parameters and the result showed an increase in removal efficiency of up to 99.3 and 97.9 for Cd (II) and Zn (II) respectively.","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\").

Over the last 10 Myr, this region has been shaped by the interaction between the Azores plume, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (MAR), and the Gloria Fault zone. This complex interaction was characterised namely by the transition from a ridge-ridge-transform (R-R-T) triple junction to a diffuse complex triple zone, with the implied tectonic stresses being accommodated along several right-lateral oblique extensional structures, including the Terceira Rift. An understanding of the main geodynamic mechanisms behind this transition is still lacking. This work explores how the Azores system may have been shaped by these complex plume-ridge-transform fault interactions by running 3D viscoelastoplastic geodynamic models using the LaMEM code. We base our initial modelling setup on previously proposed reconstructions for Azores during the Early Miocene, and implement a complying shift from spreading to right-lateral regional strain rate conditions. We further implemented a plume rising below the MAR to gain additional insight on the nature of the main geodynamic process-interactions governing this system. Our results suggest that the present-day geometric configuration of the Azores, as well as the formation of the Terceira Rift, are strongly conditioned by the interactions between plume-ridge-transform fault system under the right-lateral relative motion between Eurasia and Nubia, as well as by the growth of the Azores Plateau. Under our modelling conditions, a thicker and weaker Azores Plateau, interfering with a mantle plume, promotes the localisation of deformation along its edges which act as rheological boundaries. As a consequence, the global shift in tectonic forcing is shown to be capable of strongly localize strain along the NE edge of the plateau, closely mirroring the present-day location of the Terceira Rift.

Raised in an academic household in Belfast, she did not have the opportunity to attend university, because women were not accepted when she was young. This did not discourage her in developing her scientific interests, and she became an accomplished amateur geologist. The quality of her work led to the honorific position of Secretary of the Geological Section of the Belfast Naturalists’ Field Club (BNFC). She was attracted to several fields of geology, but focussed her attention and researched in aspects of geomorphology and petrology. Part of her work in the Geological Section involved discerning the direction of ice flow, which she and others based on extensive collecting and documentation of glacial erratics across. She was a curator of geological specimens for the BNFC, photographer of landscapes and specimens, researcher, defender of geological heritage, a good communicator, and an international collector. Her legacy is not restricted to the rock samples she collected and the thin sections she prepared, but she also collected fossils, wrote papers, took many geological photographs that she deposited with the British Association for the Advancement of Science, and most tellingly, the enthusiasm she transmitted to young females.

Much work remains to be done to understand the hydrological signal present in complementary geodetic data in much of the Western U.S., especially the Colorado River basin which comprises a diversity of climates due to its large expanse and highly variable topography. Here, we combine GNSS station vertical displacement data, GRACE surface mass change data, and snow water equivalent (SWE) data to quantify temporal changes in water distribution in the United States (U.S.) Southwest. We focus on a region composed of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah, allowing for the examination of variations in the Colorado River Basin, the primary source of water for the region's municipalities, agriculture, and ecosystems. We compare these three datasets using surface elastic deformation modeling, and use signal localization techniques to focus on the hydrological signal concentrated within the study region. We demonstrate that the accumulation and melt of snow have a first-order control on the timing of vertical displacement in the region. This is further demonstrated by phase delays between the signals of vertical surface displacement computed from each of the three datasets. These phase delays display a correlation between the distance to the nearest snowpack and the timing of vertical displacement measured at a given GNSS station.","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\").

Continuous cover forestry renounces removing the tree canopy of forest ecosystems. In contrast, clear fell forestry suggests harvesting all trees at once to replace the crop trees with young trees. Assuming occurrence probabilities for stands of different ages, a study by Kärenlampi (10.1371/journal.pstr.0000146) introduced a forest portfolio perspective to analyse profitability (expected net revenues divided by forest value) and disturbance costs of continuous cover and clear fell forestry using data from another study (10.1007/s10640-022-00719-5). The reported results suggest that continuous cover forestry has a much lower economic performance and is economically more vulnerable to disturbance impacts than clear fell forestry, which differs from the results in the other study. In this work, we demonstrate that 1) the approach in Kärenlampi’s research does not allow for deriving accurate economic performance indicators, 2) the hypothesised forest states are incomparable, and 3) the reported continuous cover disturbance costs are poorly conceptualised due to inconsistent assumptions. His study’s proposition that a disturbance leads to a regime shift from continuous cover to clear fell forestry or that high maintenance costs are associated with it does not seem convincing. Managers can replant or adopt natural regeneration on forestland after disturbance to perpetuate continuous cover forestry long-term. Whilst Kärenlampi’s study highlights valuable discussion points, our analysis reaffirms the necessity for more conceptually consistent and realistic approaches and avoiding oversimplification, which will more effectively support the economic assessment of forest disturbances.","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 paper investigates the technical development potential of natural hydrogen by estimating, for some recent finds and identified prospects, in-place and recoverable hydrogen, well productivity, water production and other byproducts that a future development would have to cater for.
\nFinds are in three broad play types:
1) focused-seepage plays where predominantly aqueous hydrogen migrates with minimal trapping;
2) coalbed plays where hydrogen is adsorbed molecularly in coals;
3) reservoir-trap-seal plays with gaseous hydrogen trapped underneath an impermeable seal.
Focused-seepage plays have a low to modest hydrogen resource-density, low well-productivity and developments may co-produce large volumes of water. Coalbed hydrogen plays may have higher resource density but again, low well-productivity. Only developments of reservoir-trap-seal plays could potentially achieve industrial offtake but to date no accumulations of this type have unambiguously been discovered.

The CENS typically lasts a few days in boreal winter and is frequently reported as a crucial synoptic forcing of heavy rainfall and flood events over northern Java Island. The occurrence of CENS has been generally understood as an extension of northerly cold surge (CS) coming from East Asia. However, out of 117 CENS events identified over the last 42 years, only 59% of the events were induced by cold surges (CENS-CS). We further found that CENS occurred with no association to cold surges (CENS-noCS) are mostly attributed to several tropical variabilities (Madden-Julian Oscillation phases 4-7, mixed-Rossby gravity waves, equatorial Rossby waves, and tropical cyclones). These phenomena induce strengthening of northerly winds mainly by generating meridional southward pressure gradient force over the CENS region. In terms of potential impacts, precipitation anomalies over northern Java Island associated with CENS-CS are slightly larger than those of CENS-noCS but significant flood events had occurred following any CENS. These imply that both types of CENS are important for controlling hydrometeorological events over the region of interest.","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 develop and test a workflow, integrating results from subsurface characterization, dynamic flow simulation, rock physics, time-lapse fluid saturation logs, and operational information to model surface seismic responses of the CO2-saturated Mt. Simon sandstone reservoir over the time. We perform fluid substitution modeling under both uniform and patchy mixing conditions. Results show that 4D surface seismic responses for the Mt. Simon reservoir are weak under the historic 1 Mt of CO2 injection, regardless of rock physics modeling constraints. Our modeled data under a hypothetical 10 Mt of CO2 injection improves the detectability of 4D surface seismic to detect CO2 plume boundary.

Even though sills are commonly considered simple, straight concordant igneous sheets, they are actually complex 3-dimensional objects. The detailed knowledge of the 3D structure of sills and their host rock is of primary relevance to better constraining the emplacement mechanisms and the impacts of sills on sedimentary basins. This study describes the results of 3-dimensional geological mapping of a large, well-exposed Early Cretaceous dolerite sill in Central Spitsbergen, Svalbard, Arctic Norway, using a combination of digital outcrop modelling and field mapping. The sill was emplaced within Upper Palaeozoic sedimentary formations of Svalbard. It is made of distinct segments emplaced at different stratigraphic levels of the host rock stratigraphy. The mapping shows a clear stratigraphic control on the intrusion morphology. The sill segments emplaced at the boundary between two formations, which marks a strong lithological boundary, are straight and very concordant. Conversely, the segments emplaced within a more homogeneous formation exhibit more complex, locally discordant shapes. The sill segments emplaced at distinct stratigraphic levels are connected by vertical steps, which formed through vertical faulting between the tips of the sill segments. The preferred NW-SE orientation of the steps and the thinning of the sill towards the SE suggests a propagation direction of the magma towards the SE. Our study shows how 3-dimensional knowledge of igneous intrusions is key for revealing their emplacement mechanisms.

UHIs, which pose a threat to public health while also increasing energy usage, are often defined using land surface temperatures. Our study demonstrates how a community sensor network from the Baltimore Social-Environmental Collaborative (BSEC) can be paired with advances in machine learning to provide near real-time predictions of UHIs with uncertainty estimates. While prior research has investigated the use of neural networks in UHI assessment, those efforts did not include uncertainty quantification. We demonstrate how uncertainty quantification can be incorporated into UHI prediction in Baltimore, Maryland. We show how a machine learning approach using community weather stations compares to ground-truth values from Landsat 9 spacecraft measurements in summer 2023. Moreover, we show how the capturing of different types of uncertainty are informative for future smart city planning. This information can empower city planners and residents to proactively address the risks associated with UHIs, potentially reducing heat-related illnesses.","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 1886 Tarawera eruption may or may not have destroyed them by burial or eruption. This research compiles surviving sinter. The volume is unexpectedly tiny, which bears on the debate. A database was developed including photography. A forensic approach was taken to atmospheric conditions which affected visibility. The eruption ejected ~ 0.5 km³ ash. Pink and White Terrace and other sinter occupied ~0.0003 km3 –0.0004 km3 of this. Finding sinter amongst the ejecta was unlikely. The probability of finding terrace sinter is ~0.03%–0.04%. This helps explain the small amount, presuming it existed. Many samples were unverified or lost. Surviving post-eruption samples are few. The scarcity is consistent with the terraces being buried and/or the vagaries of sample collection.","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 study proposes that the region underwent significant and complex transformations, likely influenced by tectonic activity, such as the reactivation of the Caledonian Deformation Front (CDF), a major geological structure in Europe that separates ancient orogenic belts, and possibly by cosmic events like the Chiemgau impact, a proposed meteorite impact in southern Germany. A reevaluation of Germanus's map, aligned with modern cartographic data, challenges long-held interpretations of Germania Magna's boundaries. The analysis suggests that Ptolemy's Vistula Fluvius corresponds more closely to the present-day Schwarze Elster in Germany rather than the Vistula River (Weichsel) in Poland. Building on this reinterpretation, the study further examines the potential regression of the Oceanus Germanicus, attributing it to tectonic shifts, volcanic activity, or changes in relative sea level. These environmental processes may have profoundly shaped settlement patterns and cultural development, influencing not only coastal areas but also extending to all regions of Germania Magna, as communities presumably adapted to substantial environmental changes. By situating Germania Magna within the broader framework of geological, cosmic, and climatic phenomena, this study offers new insights into pivotal events and processes that could have shaped the environmental and cultural landscape of Northern and Central Europe in antiquity. It aims to encourage further interdisciplinary research and a critical reassessment of historical and archaeological interpretations.

Flood forecasting and early warning systems can aid in mitigating these risks; however, the insufficient coverage of hydrometric monitoring stations and limited computational resources can be barriers for developing countries. Remote sensing technology offers a promising solution to bridge these gaps, providing critical hydrometric data and enabling more accessible flood prediction models. Leveraging high-spatial resolution, remote sensing-based flood extent data specifically developed for rice fields, we explore the possibility of predicting agronomical flood extent in the Bicol region of the Philippines using a series of simple logistic regression models with different lookback windows. The model predictors only included rainfall at two spatial scales and flow accumulation. The best-performed model, with three-day lookback window, captured 65% of variation in flooding among events. However, the best model did not predict well the variation in flooding within basins, nor did it account for the heterogeneity in the response of flooding to rainfall among basins. We suggested several avenues for improving the model, including incorporating basin characteristics and additional predictors for better capture variation in flooding within and among basins. \n\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\").

These periods of unrest are characterized by ground uplift, seismic swarms, and increased degassing. In this study, we compare the seismicity and associated b value variations during the 1982-1984 and 2005-2024 unrest periods. The b value is calculated using the novel b more positive method, which improves upon traditional approaches by analyzing the magnitude difference between successive earthquakes, without the need to estimate the completeness magnitude. Our results show significant differences in the spatial and temporal evolution of $b$ values between the two unrest periods. In particular, the 2005-2024 unrest exhibits a slower ground uplift rate but higher fluctuations in the $b$ value, especially in shallower seismicity, possibly suggesting different underlying mechanisms compared to the 1982-1984 crisis. We also observe distinct regions of increased stress, particularly beneath Pozzuoli harbor and Pisciarelli area for deeper seismicity, during the ongoing unrest. Our findings provide valuable insights into the evolution of Campi Flegrei volcanic systems and highlight the importance of continuous monitoring of the $b$ value as a potential strain meter for describing volcanic activity.","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":"statistical seismology"},{"word":"volcanology"},{"word":"b-value"}],"date_submitted":"2025-02-03T09:18:00+01:00","date_accepted":"2025-02-05T15:30:30+01:00","date_published":"2025-02-05T07:30:00+01:00","doi":null,"preprint_doi":"10.31223/X5K12S","authors":[{"pk":96491,"first_name":"Vincenzo","middle_name":"","last_name":"Convertito","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":96492,"first_name":"Cataldo","middle_name":"","last_name":"Godano","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":96490,"first_name":"Giuseppe","middle_name":"","last_name":"Petrillo","salutation":"Dr","orcid":"0000-0002-2339-559X"},{"pk":96493,"first_name":"Anna","middle_name":"","last_name":"Tramelli","salutation":"","orcid":null}],"subject":[{"name":"Physical Sciences and Mathematics"}],"files":[{"original_filename":"cfconfro.pdf","mime_type":"application/pdf","download_url":"/repository/object/8489/download/15883/"},{"original_filename":"cfconfro1.pdf","mime_type":"application/pdf","download_url":"/repository/object/8489/download/15918/"}],"supplementary_files":[]},{"pk":8494,"title":"A New Theory of Global Climate and Ecosystem Change Based on Planetary Orbital Variations","abstract":"Traditional climate change research has primarily focused on internal factors of Earth, particularly the impact of human activities on greenhouse gas emissions. This paper proposes the \"Mao's Theory of Global Climate and Ecosystem Change Based on Planetary Orbital Variations\", which suggests that changes in Earth's climate and ecosystems are primarily driven by the orbital variations of external celestial bodies. Earth's revolution around the Sun and its rotation determine seasonal transitions and day-night alternations, while climate evolution on other timescales is closely linked to changes in planetary orbital positions. The change in the planetary orbit position directly affects the Earth's temperature and atmospheric water vapor distribution, thereby governing the spatiotemporal evolution of ecosystems. The study finds that spatiotemporal variations in water vapor and temperature play a key role in global vegetation distribution and have a regulatory function on the greenhouse effect, partially offsetting the warming effects of carbon dioxide and demonstrating Earth's self-regulation capacity in response to temperature changes. Further analysis suggests that phenomena such as geomagnetic reversals, plate tectonics, and earthquakes are also related to the orbital variations of the Sun and other celestial bodies, with the emergence of life and biological evolution being active adaptations to orbital evolution and the Earth's internal spheres. Therefore, this theory offers new perspectives and methodologies for studying climate change and the spatiotemporal evolution of ecosystems, expanding new directions for climate prediction, disaster early warning, and species evolution research, and holds significant implications for future studies of climate and ecosystems.

This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of recent scientific literature to evaluate publication trends, citation impact, and the key contributors in LLM-related research within these fields and offers insights and suggestions for best practices. We focus on extracting and analyzing critical metadata, including citations, publication dates, journals, authors, affiliated countries, impact factors, cite scores, research types, domains, and keywords. Additionally, we assess the purpose, use cases, and applications of LLMs, as well as the ethical considerations surrounding cost, scalability, data privacy, transparency, and sustainability. Our findings indicate significant growth in LLM-based studies, especially in hydrological modeling, climate forecasting, and environmental monitoring. We also highlight key challenges related to scalability and ethical concerns, such as data privacy and transparency, that need further exploration. This study provides a detailed understanding for the landscape of LLM adoption in environmental sciences, offering valuable insights for future research and policy development in these critical areas.","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\").

These insights have revealed groundwater as a dynamic component of both the water cycle and social-ecological systems, leading to an expansion in groundwater science that increasingly focuses on interactions between groundwater with ecological, socioeconomic, and Earth systems. This shift presents many opportunities that are conditional on broader, more interdisciplinary system conceptualizations, models, and methods that require the integration of a greater diversity of data in contrast to conventional hydrogeological investigations. Here, we catalogue 144 global open access datasets and dataset collections relevant to groundwater science that span elements of the hydrosphere, biosphere, atmosphere, lithosphere, food systems, governance, management, and other socioeconomic system dimensions. The assembled catalogue offers a reference of existing data for use in interdisciplinary assessments, and we summarize these data across their primary system, spatial resolution, temporal range, data type, generation method, level of groundwater representation, and institutional location of lead authorship. The catalogue includes 15 groundwater datasets, 23 datasets explicitly linked with groundwater, and 106 datasets with implicit or potential groundwater connections. We find the majority of datasets are temporally static and that temporally dynamic data availability currently peaks during the 2000-2010 decade. Only a small fraction of temporally dynamic data are explicitly linked to groundwater, representing a significant opportunity for future work to address. We find that most groundwater datasets are generated by a small number of countries, including the USA, Germany, the Netherlands, and Canada. We raise three themes of possible priorities for future global groundwater data initiatives, which include: data improvements through more explicit integration of groundwater and prioritizing observed and temporally dynamic data; elevating regional and local scale data and perspectives to address challenges relating to equity and bias; and advancing and promoting data sharing initiatives founded on reciprocal benefits between global initiatives and data providers.

Although the stereochemistry of their glycerol moiety suggests that they are produced by bacteria, the exact producers and the biosynthetic pathway of brGDGTs remain unclear. Here we report the occurrence of tetraester and mixed ester/ether membrane-spanning lipids with a backbone consisting of iso-diabolic acid (iso-DA) containing up to two additional methyl groups in mineral soils from Nepal and Rwanda. These compounds are presumed intermediate products during brGDGT synthesis but had not been detected in cultures or the environment before. Interestingly, while acid hydrolysis of the polar fraction releases iso-DA in the soil from Nepal, monoalkyl glycerol ethers with iso-C15 and iso-C17 chains are released in the soil from Rwanda. These results support both current hypotheses that brGDGT synthesis can occur via tail-to-tail condensation of two iso-C15 fatty acids to form iso-DA, as well as through the reduction of diesters to diethers and subsequent carbon-carbon linking as shown to occur during the synthesis of archaeal GDGTs.","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\").

Slow flowing glaciers or stagnant ice streams can slide at low velocities over a bed that is below the bulk melting point of ice, dissipating small amounts of frictional heat. This phenomenon is typically referred to as subtemperate sliding, and it complicates the assumed dichotomy between frozen and thawed beds embedded in many large-scale process-based ice sheet models. In this study, we allow for subtemperate sliding in a simple ice stream box model to investigate frictional heat dissipation at frozen ice-bed interfaces. We find that including subtemperate sliding leads to non-negligible frictional heat dissipation, which can accelerate sliding and lead to runaway acceleration of stagnant ice streams. These results suggest that subtemperate sliding and the associated thermo-frictional feedback occurs in longer timescales characterizing Heinrich events. On shorter, centennial timescales, subtemperate sliding is likely an important physical process to consider in modeling the potential reactivation of stagnant ice streams like Kamb Ice Stream.","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\").

Understanding their thermo-chemical and mechanical evolution requires models that integrate fluid dynamics, phase changes, and chemical transport. This study presents a new numerical model that couples these processes using a multi-phase, multi-component formulation. The model simulates convection, phase segregation, and thermo-chemical evolution across a wide range of scales, from crustal magma chambers to planetary magma oceans. To ensure numerical stability and physical realism, adaptive regularisation schemes are implemented, including eddy diffusivity for higher-dimensional turbulent flows and convective mixing diffusivity for one-dimensional column models. Benchmark tests confirm the accuracy of the numerical scheme, and use cases demonstrate its applicability to scenarios such as fractional crystallisation, wall-rock assimilation, and magma recharge on crustal scales, and magma ocean solidification on planetary scales. By providing an open-source implementation, this work aims to advance our understanding of dynamic magmatic systems and their role in planetary evolution.","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 study investigates the importance of the balance between wind and solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity on periods of low renewable generation, known as RES droughts. Three different RES datasets are used to estimate the capacity factors for different scenarios of installed capacities for wind and solar PV power. The skill of the RES datasets is quantified by comparing capacity factor time series to observed hourly data and by assessing their representation of observed RES droughts. The RES datasets are used to generate a 45-year hourly time series of RES capacity factor, enabling analysis of the frequency, duration and return periods of RES droughts at a climatological scale. Results show the importance of using an accurate, validated RES dataset for RES drought risk assessment. The addition of solar PV capacity to a wind-dominated system results in a significant reduction in the frequency and duration of RES droughts, while also reducing extremes and seasonal RES drought patterns. These findings underscore the importance of diversification in RES capacity to enhance energy security and resilience.

Since kerogen can constitute a significant volumetric fraction of mudrocks, the wettability of kerogen can considerably affect the wettability of organic-rich mudrocks. In a recent project, we showed using a combination of experimental methods and molecular simulation studies that kerogen type, thermal maturity, and reservoir temperature conditions affect the contact angle of water droplet on kerogen surface. This indicates that the wettability of kerogen is variable with its geochemistry and reservoir conditions. However, these studies do not consider the impact of having a third phase hydrocarbon in the reservoir system. Moreover, wettability affects the distribution of fluids in the porous media and the relative fluid mobility of reservoir fluids. However, the impact of kerogen wettability on fluid mobility is yet to be understood at a molecular level. \n\nTherefore, in this research project, we plan to use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to determine the impact of kerogen geochemistry and reservoir conditions on three phase contact angles of water and hydrocarbon on kerogen surface. We also use MD simulations to determine the impact of wettability on mobility of fluids in kerogen pores. We use realistic molecular models of kerogen. The chemical structure and composition of these molecular models are verified against experimental data for kerogen including Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) measurements. The results obtained from MD simulation will be verified against experientially measured three-phase contact angles on kerogen surface. Furthermore, wettability of kerogen surface impacts the interaction between the fluid and the kerogen pores and, therefore, affects the relative permeability/mobility of different fluids in the kerogen pore space. In this work, we simulate water and oil transport through the kerogen pores of varying hydrophilicities by using MD simulations to determine the impact of kerogen wettability on the fluid mobilities. \n\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\").

Food system models traditionally designed for market-driven optimisation and economic efficiency may not be well suited to address these emerging needs, limiting their ability to support decisions and participatory processes effectively. Here we evaluate the extent to which current models represent food system transformations and identify challenges and opportunities in relation to key aspects of transformative change, including the representation of socio-political dynamics and human-nature feedbacks, links between global and local scales, robustness under uncertainty, and flexibility to evolving stakeholder needs. Based on an evaluation of current food system models, we identify ways forward to enhance the potential usefulness of modelling tools. Key research priorities include rethinking how models are designed, emphasising modularity and a diversification of models, as well as rethinking how models are used, suggesting their more effective integration into social and decision-making processes. Enhancing the utility of food system models is expected to prioritise and guide the practical activities involved in transforming food systems.","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\").

However, the exact role of glaciers remains elusive as glaciation alters multiple factors controlling weathering, the net effect of which is ambiguous even in directionality. While illustrative, modern observations have limited ability to constrain time-dependent behavior, which is thought to be important to glacial weathering (Vance et al., 2009; Kemeny et al., 2021). To isolate and quantify the effect of glaciers over millennial timescales, we developed a novel multi-proxy system for constraining catchment-scale fluxes in the past. This approach utilizes the correlation between Ge/Si and Si isotope ratios in modern rivers, which sensitively tracks weathering processes, and the preservation of these signals in biogenic silica in lake sediments. We report changes in weathering fluxes in two catchments with different glacial histories during the past ten thousand years from two lacustrine records in Iceland. We find that the chemical weathering fluxes are an order of magnitude higher in the same catchment when glaciated compared to when ice free. The synchronous variations in weathering fluxes with the expansion and contraction of glaciers indicate a rapid effect of glaciation that may amplify climatic variations via a positive feedback.

It is also considered to mitigate climate change, yet some studies challenge this view Recently, Laine et al. (2024, Restoration Ecology, 32(7), p.e14213) considered feasible restoration outcomes of boreal forestry drained peatlands and proposed that rewetting nutrient-rich peatland forests can yield immediate climate benefits. They, however, focused only on the change of soil greenhouse gas balance following rewetting. Here, we extend their analysis by including tree stand carbon sink-source dynamics, direct radiative forcing by albedo change, and broaden the system boundaries to include wood product carbon storage. We show that restoring nutrient-rich drained boreal peatland forests contributes to climate warming in short- and medium term (<200 yr), except in specific cases when tree stand carbon storage is preserved. Rewetting nutrient poor boreal peatland forests yield to persistent warming impact. Results show that ecological benefits of rewetting drained boreal forest peatlands have a climate cost, and rewetting is unlikely to mitigate climate change in the timescale commensurate with that of, e.g., EU climate goals.","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\").

As one of the most severe disasters of the 21st century, Ida exemplifies the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme hydrometeorological events under climate change. Predicting urban flood pathways remains challenging due to the complex interplay of rainfall-runoff and river–tide–landscape interactions. To address this, we developed a high-resolution (street-resolved) flood model integrating LiDAR terrain data, bathymetric surveys, and land use-based surface friction across Philadelphia. We find that impervious surfaces and fragmented infrastructure exacerbate pluvial flooding and localized waterlogging, increasing exposure for both low- and high-income communities. Scenario-based simulations reveal a tipping point: a logarithmic increase in inundation areas for return periods above 100 years, and 2-7% additional flooding when peak discharge coincides with high tide—rising to up to 15% under projected sea level rise by 2100. Our findings underscore the compounding impacts of climate extremes in urban river systems and the need for integrated forecasting and adaptive planning—particularly in vulnerable, low-lying, and rapidly urbanizing regions worldwide.

Sand nourishment strategies are increasingly regarded as promising nature-based approaches to adaptation. They may increase flood safety and mitigate coastal erosion while enhancing recreational and ecological functioning. However, their multifunctional potential has not yet been assessed under diverse climate impacts at decadal scales. This study analysed the effects of beach, shoreface and mega-nourishment strategies on the physical capacity of sandy shores to supply coastal multifunctionality, using a systems-based approach. Through a structured literature review, we identified eight indicators for recreational (2 indicators), ecological (3) and flood safety (3) functions. We integrated these indicators into a process-based sand distribution model for dissipative coastal profiles. We simulated indicator states as the coastal profile responded to the nourishment strategies under five sea-level rise scenarios and three erosion rates. Next, we calculated the extent to which the physical capacity for coastal functions and multifunctionality were supplied over six decades. Our results indicate that all three nourishment strategies can highly supply the capacity for coastal multifunctionality, although the drivers of this potential differed per strategy. These findings imply that sand nourishment strategies are viable approaches for multifunctional coastal climate adaptation in the coming decades. However, they require prioritising specific coastal features and functions. Although sand nourishment strategies remain high-impact interventions, they also allow for intentionally creating coastal landscapes. These landscapes may not only provide flood protection but also enhance the specific environmental and societal functions valued in dissipative sandy shores. Prioritising among these functions requires explicit political choices

Traditionally, Mg-silicate genesis in lacustrine contexts is linked to alkaline or saline conditions in closed, evaporitic basins. However, the discovery of interparticle amorphous kerolite-like Mg-silicates in the sediments of Lake Clifton, a currently hypersaline coastal lagoon in Western Australia with circumneutral pH and moderate alkalinity, challenges existing models.\nIn this study, petrographic, hydrochemical, and microbial genomic data from different Lake Clifton sub-environments (episodically submerged and subaerial settings) and substrates (pustular microbial mats and non-lithifying microbial sediments) were integrated with geochemical modelling to quantify the mechanisms underlying the formation of Mg-silicates and aragonite peloids as lake shoreline sediments. \nGeochemical modelling suggests that neither evaporation-driven alkalinity fluctuations nor mixing of lake water with groundwater can solely explain the kerolite-like/carbonate association observed in lakebed sediments. Kerolite-like phases nucleate in association with twisted microbial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and organic-rich bacterial remains; this, combined with the identification of diatom- and cyanobacteria-powered photosynthesis, putative anoxygenic photosynthesis, and sulphate-reducing metabolisms, suggests an intimate link between biologically induced processes and the co-precipitation of aragonite peloids and interparticle kerolite-like phases in the lake. Moreover, the contribution of dead diatom frustule dissolution towards kerolite-like authigenesis was geochemically simulated, revealing that the precipitation of observable amounts of kerolite-like at pH values measured in Lake Clifton waters would prevent the formation of aragonite, questioning the feasibility of a scenario dominated by large inputs of dissolved biogenic silica.\nDiscovery of kerolite-like Mg-silicates in microbial-bearing sediments of a hypersaline coastal lagoon prompts a holistic re-evaluation of the environmental and microbiological factors influencing Mg-silicate-carbonate co-precipitation in lacustrine-peri-marine settings. Studying modern Mg-silicate-bearing lacustrine sediments offer the opportunity to better understand the early diagenetic biotic- abiotic processes that may have had limited petrographic preservation potential in ancient saline lake deposits.","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 starts by introducing the basic concepts of AI and ML. Then, it discusses the current and potential applications of AI and ML in volcanology, including recent advances in petrology, geophysics, remote sensing, and ground monitoring. We highlight that AI and ML can potentially have a transformative effect in understanding volcanic systems, from deciphering the architecture of magma feeding systems and pre-eruptive processes to eruption forecasting. However, the success of AI in volcanology relies heavily on having access to extensive, cohesive, and high-quality data sources for both training and testing models. Data scarcity, noise, and interpretability remain key challenges. Furthermore, many volcanoes lack comprehensive and multi parametric monitoring networks, limiting AI’s full potential. Education also needs to evolve, with universities offering curricula that include AI and ML skills to prepare future researchers for an AI-aware future. Understanding the limitations of and pitfalls associated with these tools, will be important.","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 conduct fieldwork and microstructural and minerochemical analyses on the amphibolite-facies, 100-m-wide Upper Badcall shear zone in northwest Scotland, which deforms initially anhydrous quartzofeldspathic gneiss and a mafic dyke. We show that with increasing strain, m-scale strain distribution and mineral chemistry become increasingly homogeneous, while hydrous phases and syntectonic quartz veins become more abundant. With increasing strain there is an overall increase in grain size, grain boundary alignment and shape preferred orientation in amphibole, plagioclase and quartz. Only amphibole and large grained quartz exhibit crystallographic preferred orientation in strained areas. Subtle microstructures that may be overlooked elsewhere, particularly in felsic gneiss, indicate dominant activity of dissolution-precipitation creep and equivalent rheological weakening in both mafic and felsic rocks. We propose that brittle fractures, now preserved as syntectonic quartz veins, allowed localised fluid-infiltration in previously anhydrous crust. This triggered local retrogressive reactions and introduced sufficient grain boundary fluid for deformation to favour dissolution-precipitation creep over dislocation creep. Our study suggests that dissolution-precipitation creep may be more dominant in mid- to lower-crustal localised zones of deformation than previously thought.

The objective of this review was to investigate the recommended adaptation strategies related to the risks associated with vector-borne diseases and examine how various levels of government in Canada are executing these recommended actions in their climate change adaptation plans. A combined methodology was employed, consisting of two distinct searches to examine both the recommended adaptation strategies in the peer-reviewed literature and the adaptation actions from governmental sources in the grey literature. Relevant sources were identified across four databases (Embase, Medline, Scopus, Global Health), as well as national, subnational, and municipal governmental websites across Canada. Data were categorized into eight (8) specific adaptation categories based on previously established frameworks. Data were also collected on which vector-borne diseases were referenced, the vulnerable population groups considered, and the inclusion of a One Health focus. A total of 194 peer-reviewed articles and 87 grey literature sources were reviewed, which contained a total of 582 adaptation recommendations and 178 adaptation actions. The most frequently proposed adaptation strategies related to the following categories: Management, Planning, and Policy, Information and Research, and Warning and Observation Systems. Our findings revealed a strong alignment between the recommended strategies and the adaptation measures being implemented. However, notable discrepancies were present among the adaptation categories of Practice and Behaviour and Laboratory Methods and Other Tools, revealing gaps across the literature and potential opportunities for further action. While many recommended strategies are being incorporated into actions across Canada, significant regional variability and gaps remain. We advocate for an increased investment in adaptation measures targeting vector-borne diseases and a greater integration of the One Health approach in subnational and municipal plans.","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 land managers often prioritize reducing wildfire risk in the wildland-urban interface, the impact on regional air quality from mitigating wildfire spread is less explored. We develop a framework to quantify wildfire contributions to smoke exposure and assess targeted land management strategies. This data-driven approach integrates fire emissions and smoke transport to generate a smoke risk index at 0.25°×0.25° resolution. We deploy the smoke risk index in an online tool, enabling stakeholders to analyze smoke risk under various scenarios of burned area, fuel consumption, and land management. Using Northern California as a case study, we estimate that in 2020, targeted land management in the 15 highest-risk areas (~3.5% of the total) could have reduced smoke exposure by 17.6%. However, most prescribed burns conducted from 2017-2020 did not overlap with these high-risk zones. Our framework also estimates excess deaths from smoke PM2.5 exposure, attributing ~36,400 (95% CI: 25,400-47,200) deaths nationally due to western US fires in the year following the 2020 fire season. Our adaptable tool can incorporate higher-resolution datasets and help stakeholders prioritize fuel treatment and fire suppression to mitigate smoke exposure risks.","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 reaction is associated with fractionations of both bulk oxygen and clumped isotopes. Accurate knowledge of the effect of cation substitution on the degree of isotopic clumping in the carbonate phase and on acid fractionation factors is crucial for accurate temperature reconstructions based on clumped isotope measurements of extracted CO2 from various carbonate mineralogies. Previous studies have yielded contradicting results on the effect of carbonate mineralogy on both ∆47 acid fractionation factors and the validity of a universal ∆47-T relationship, and, so far, a systematic investigation of mineralogy-specific effects on ∆48 is lacking. In this study, we have analyzed the dual clumped isotope composition of stochastic and non-stochastic calcites, aragonites, dolomites, witherites‚ and siderites with unprecedented long-term repeatabilities (1SDs) of 8.1 and 28.1 ppm for ∆47 and ∆48, respectively. In order to facilitate complete acid digestion of dolomite and siderite in a reasonable timeframe, an acid digestion temperature of 110°C was used for these minerals instead of the 90°C applied to calcite, aragonite and witherite. A set of calcite samples was reacted at both temperatures to determine the calcite-specific difference in acid digestion-related fractionation factors between 90 and 110°C, yielding ∆*47, 110-90°C = -0.0147±0.002 % and ∆*48, 110-90°C = -0.0148±0.006 ‰ (2SEs, n=8). After projecting ∆47 and ∆48 results from stochastic dolomite and siderite to the carbon dioxide equilibrium scale (CDES90) using the calcite-specific ∆*i, 110-90°C, calcite, aragonite, dolomite, witherite and siderite exhibit statistically indistinguishable ∆47, CDES90 and ∆48, CDES90 values, with weighted averages of 0.1850±0.0042 ‰ and 0.1255±0.0130 ‰ (weighted 2SEs, n=15), respectively. In addition, ∆47, CDES90 and ∆48, CDES90 values of non-stochastic aragonites (n=2), (proto-)dolomites (n=2) and witherite (n=1) correspond to calcite equilibrium values predicted by their independently known formation temperatures (Fiebig et al., 2024). Natural dolomites and siderites of unknown formation temperature are also indistinguishable from the calcite equilibrium line. Overall, these results imply that calcite, aragonite, dolomite and witherite share indistinguishable ∆*47, ∆*48 and ∆63-∆64-T relationships. As a consequence, the calcite-specific equilibrium ∆47, CDES90-∆48, CDES90-T relationships of Fiebig et al. (2024) can be reliably applied to aragonite, dolomite, and witherite. More precipitation experiments under controlled conditions are necessary to clarify with more confidence if these relationships are also valid for siderite.

Many conventional models, often calibrated for sandstones, are based on parameters such as porosity or specific mercury saturation points, which limits their accuracy in carbonate reservoirs due to differing rock properties. This study addresses these limitations by integrating parameters from 12 existing permeability estimation models and selecting three reliable models for carbonates: Swanson’s, Winland’s, and Pittman’s models. These models incorporate Swanson’s parameter (maximum Sb/Pc, where Sb is non-wetting phase saturation and Pc is capillary pressure), pore-throat radius at specific saturations (Winland’s rx), and porosity (Pittman’s model). An integrated framework was developed using data from 50 carbonate samples and validated with 20 additional samples and log data. The permeability values range from 0.01 to 450 millidarcies (mD), with porosity from 1% to 30%. Multiple linear regression established robust relationships between permeability, porosity, and Swanson’s parameter, improving prediction accuracy. Validation using MICP and Stoneley wave data confirmed the model's reliability, demonstrating significant advancements in permeability estimation for heterogeneous carbonate systems. This approach offers a comprehensive and accurate tool for reservoir characterization.

On 20 October, aerial observation identified floating pumice rafts extending for ~80 km in the area the seamount, which were subsequently sampled and found to comprise white-colored rhyolitic pumice containing dark-colored patches. Subsequently, in the summer and autumn of 2024, white pumice, which can be clearly distinguished from the pre-existing gray and black pumice from recent eruptions of oceanic volcanoes, was stranded on the coasts of the Nansei and Izu-Ogasawara Islands. This study presented petrographic and geochemical characteristics of the white drift pumice to investigate the dispersal of the small scale pumice rafting.\nWhite pumice clasts were collected at Okinawa (Nansei Islands) and Hahajima (Ogasawara Islands), and found to have the same petrographic and geochemical characteristics. The clasts consist of microlite-free white pumice with fine vesicles and gray-colored frothy patches, similar to the clasts collected immediately after the earthquake swarm at Sofu Seamount in October 2023. In addition, the clasts contain black enclaves containing Mg-rich olivine and clinopyroxene, and Ca-rich plagioclase. Although the white pumice clasts collected at similar times included those with different characteristics, the finding of the same pumice type over a distance of >1000 km suggests that the pumice clasts drifted over a wide area despite the small size of the pumice rafts.","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\").

Possible explanations include heterogeneities in fault stress and frictional properties. We investigate how various types of heterogeneity in simulations of quasi-dynamic sequences of seismic and aseismic slip affect rupture complexity, hypocenter location, and slow slip events (SSEs). We model a 2D vertical strike-slip fault and study the roles of self-affine fractal heterogeneities in normal stress, rate-and-state parameter (a - b), and characteristic slip-weakening distance, as well as the effects of a low-rigidity fault zone. We find that only a combination of heterogeneous parameters introduces variability in the modeled rupture extent, hypocenter depth, and recurrence interval. In particular, variable hypocenter depths require creeping patches within the velocity-weakening seismogenic zone. A low-rigidity fault zone adds little to slip complexity. Slip law simulations produce fewer partial ruptures, smaller stress drops, and lower peak slip rates compared to aging law simulations. We show that the ratio of the seismogenic zone thickness to nucleation size does not entirely predict slip complexity. The most complex aging law model, combining multiple heterogeneities, features system-size earthquakes preceded by cascades of partial ruptures and spontaneous SSEs. For such models, a transition from aperiodic to quasi-regular regimes requires more cycles than is typically needed to erase the effect of initial conditions. These results highlight the importance of heterogeneity in reproducing natural fault slip complexity in numerical models of earthquake sequences.

Here we present a software package — traveltime — written in and for the language R. traveltime enables a user to create a map of the motorised or walking travel time over an area of interest from a user-specified set of geographic coordinates. The result is a raster of the area of interest where the value in each cell is the lowest travel time in minutes to any of the specified locations. We envisage this software having diverse applications including: estimating sampling bias in species occurrence data, mapping electric vehicle charger accessibility, allocating public defibrillators, setting rehabilitation districts for stroke patients, or understanding access to agricultural processing facilities.

The hyperpycnal-fed prodeltaic shelf system comprised proximal and distal lobe deposits (=hyperpycnal subaqueous delta) as well as deltaic mid-ramp deposits (=hyperpycnal littoral delta). Facies associations indicated that the hyperpycnal flows were fluctuation, resulting in the development of cyclic sequences of massive, laminated, and rippled sandstones. Plant-rich intervals provide a clear link to terrestrial sources. Hummocky cross-stratification, quasi planar-lamination and combined-flow ripples, suggest combined flow influences, driven by monsoonal dynamics. The presence of elementary depositional sequences (1.5–11 m thick) indicate progradational trends related to climate-driven hyperpycnal processes. Sedimentation rates of 0.15–1.12 m/kyr align with a monsoon-regulated half-precession cycle of 9.8 kyr, suggesting a direct link between climatic forcing and sediment delivery. This research supports the role of hyperpycnal flows in transferring sandy sediments across continental shelves, reinforcing their importance in constructing clastic deltaic ramps and shelfal lobes during the Middle Devonian. The findings contribute to our understanding of sedimentary dynamics in ancient marine systems and highlight the importance of hyperpycnal flows as a key mechanism in sediment distribution from deltaic to deep-marine environments.","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\").

Recognizing the need to understand water scarcity and human contributions to it, various studies have been done over the years, necessitating access to reliable, comprehensive data on historical and projected water use across all sectors. Despite progress in this direction, a significant challenge persists in finding datasets that maintain consistency at both national and subnational levels at the intersection between historical and future projections. This inconsistency is likely attributed to factors such as discordant socio-economical data at the transition between historical and future periods (e.g., GDP, population dynamics, livestock density, land use) and the independent creation of past and scenario datasets without concerted efforts for harmonization. Addressing these issues, this study presents a first holistic approach to harmonize two existing water use datasets across all sectors, encompassing both past and projected periods. The methodology and insights gained from this process are discussed, highlighting the achievement of a fully consistent dataset. The harmonized dataset offers utility for a broad spectrum of applications at the interface between humans, water, and climate.","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, none of the current commensuration approaches are suitable for addressing the current climatic effect of mire ecosystems as compared to the situation in which such mires would not exist. The mire ecosystems have accumulated carbon for millennia, creating a negative perturbation to the atmospheric carbon dioxide content, but at the same time they emit methane into the atmosphere. Thus, the functioning of mires involves GHG fluxes with opposing effects on Earth’s radiative balance. Here, based on a simple radiative forcing (RF) model, we propose a new metric for commensuration of the effects of accumulated carbon and methane emission (ACME) on Earth’s energy balance. This ACME approach is applicable to natural mires with a significant part of their carbon accumulated more than 1000 years ago and requires relatively few input data. We demonstrate the feasibility of the ACME approach by applying it to a set of northern mires. The ACME-based RF estimate indicates that these mires have a cooling effect on the current climate, contrary to what a global warming potential-based calculation suggests, since the climatic effect is dominated by the sustained carbon accumulation. By applying the new metric with varying estimates of the total carbon storage and methane emission of northern mires, we estimate the current RF of these mires to range from –0.49 to –0.26 W m-2.

[1]. In this model, types of local climate action were empirically categorized (diet, travel, protest, other climate actions) and it was found that both individual and collective intentions contribute to self-reported climate actions in these categories and that collective intentions were weaker than individual. Based on these findings, the current paper presents the results of an intervention study where a series of neighbourhood events in the same neighbourhoods as used for Klöckner et al. were implemented over the course of 9 months, aiming at strengthening the collective motivation to act against climate change in the neighbourhoods. These events comprised of hands-on work on contextualized climate action, experiential learning, and creative and disruptive communication techniques. The effects of these interventions were evaluated in seven European neighbourhoods with replicating key elements of the pre-intervention survey after the intervention series. In total, 46 respondents answered the survey both before and after the interventions, 13 of which were participants of at least one of the intervention events. Despite the small sample size, we find indications that the interventions were successful in increasing the perceived social norms in the neighbourhoods, the identification with the neighbourhoods, and decreasing perceived barriers to action. Smaller positive effects seem to occur for collective intentions and collective efficacy, and behaviour change. The individual factors appear to be mostly unaffected by the interventions, with potentially some improvement in individual efficacy. Overall, this study – while being partly inconclusive due to small sample size – points at the potential of neighbourhood-based climate interventions as a new methodology for activating a path to climate action underutilized in current campaigns. The preliminary findings we present here help generating studies to test them under more robust 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\").

Using a methodology grounded in Decision Making under Deep Uncertainty (DMDU), we combine computational modeling with stakeholder-informed metanarratives to connect abstract analysis with grounded, context-specific knowledge. Our study introduces a novel simulation approach to water scarcity vulnerability in Mexico City, revealing that no amount of budget allocation alone can solve the persistent vulnerability of areas like Iztapalapa. This counterintuitive finding, generated through model-based scenarios, was contextualized and explained by community-derived metanarratives that surfaced deep social, political, and historical uncertainties. In doing so, we highlight how simulations and narratives together offer a more robust means of identifying adaptation pathways than either can alone. Our vulnerability model integrates exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity, drawing from both quantitative service indicators and community knowledge. We argue that addressing climate challenges requires cognitive and methodological tools capable of holding plural uncertainties, enabling diverse futures to be imagined and evaluated.

This deposit is characterized by abundant titanomagnetite that hosts diverse ilmenite exsolution textures, including blocky, lamellar, and cloth-like forms. In this study, we investigate the geochemistry and mineralogy of ilmenite exsolutions in titanomagnetite to understand their formation mechanisms and implications for the ore-forming process. Detailed petrographic observations and electron microprobe analyses reveal that the exsolution textures result from multiple mechanisms: oxy-exsolution due to titanomagnetite oxidation; subsolidus re-equilibration between magnetite and ilmenite involving elemental diffusion of Fe, Ti, Cr, Co, and Ni; and exsolution related to lattice defects caused by rapid cooling. Thermodynamic modeling using Gibbs free energy calculations and the QUILF program indicates that blocky, lamellar, and cloth-textured ilmenite exsolutions formed at temperatures above and below the solid solution solvus under decreasing oxygen fugacity. Additionally, our results indicate that the exsolution of zircon and pleonaste at ilmenite grain boundaries is attributed to the saturation and precipitation of elements like Zr and Al, due to the oxidation of titanomagnetite, rather than interactions between ilmenite and adjacent clinopyroxene. Reconstruction of the cooling history suggests that the oxygen fugacity of oxide-apatite gabbronorites was significantly higher than that of Fe-Ti-P ores. This confirms that increasing oxygen fugacity during magma evolution promoted immiscibility, leading to the formation of nelsonitic melts and ultimately the development of Fe-Ti-P ores.","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\").

These reservoirs, often referred to as unconventional hydrocarbon systems, are composed of complex organic and inorganic phases that interact dynamically over geological timescales. Understanding these interactions is crucial for optimizing hydrocarbon recovery and developing effective reservoir management strategies.\nOne of the central themes of this study is thermal maturity, which governs the transformation of organic material into hydrocarbons. As mudstones undergo burial and increased temperature exposure, organic matter, primarily kerogen, is thermally degraded into oil and gas. The degree of thermal maturity affects the composition, phase behavior, and mobility of hydrocarbons within the reservoir. High-maturity shales tend to exhibit lower oil viscosity and increased gas content, which influence the overall fluid transport and production efficiency. Moreover, thermal maturity impacts the wettability of the rock, altering the interaction between hydrocarbons and the mineral matrix, which in turn affects fluid retention and migration pathways.\nAnother key factor considered is wettability, which plays a significant role in determining fluid distribution and flow behavior within mudstone reservoirs. Wettability refers to the preference of a solid surface to be in contact with either water or hydrocarbons. The organic-rich nature of these mudstones contributes to a highly heterogeneous wettability profile, with variations between oil-wet, water-wet, and mixed-wet conditions. These differences impact capillary pressures, relative permeability, and ultimately, the efficiency of hydrocarbon recovery. Experimental studies using contact angle measurements and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques provide valuable insights into how wettability changes with thermal evolution and fluid exposure.\nIn addition to wettability, adsorption properties are critical in dictating hydrocarbon storage and transport mechanisms. Due to their high surface area and microporous nature, organic-rich mudstones can adsorb significant quantities of gas, particularly methane, through physical and chemical interactions. Adsorption is influenced by factors such as mineral composition, organic matter content, and pressure-temperature conditions. Computational approaches, including molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, have been instrumental in elucidating the fundamental mechanisms governing gas adsorption in these complex systems.\nBy integrating experimental findings with computational studies, this paper provides a comprehensive synthesis of the geochemical processes affecting organic-rich mudstone reservoirs. Insights from contemporary research are discussed, offering a nuanced understanding of the interplay between thermal maturity, wettability, and adsorption properties. These findings have important implications for optimizing hydrocarbon extraction strategies and improving reservoir management in unconventional energy resources.\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\").

With an eye toward Opuntia's ecological effects, present management practices, and suggestions for future control activities, this review assesses the possible distribution and invasion risk of the plant under climate change conditions. We investigate the species' present distribution in China, the biological traits allowing its proliferation, and the environmental elements driving its expansion. Mechanical, chemical, and biological control techniques are among the management strategies under careful evaluation; integrated pest management (IPM) shows great potential. We address issues including ecological concerns, limited efficacy of mechanical and chemical approaches, and non-target consequences of biological controls. Reducing future invasions depends on proactive preventative plans involving early identification, public awareness, and biosecurity measures. The study emphasizes the need for continuous research to better grasp the dynamics of Opuntia invasions and the evolution of more sensible, region-specific control strategies. Improving early-warning systems, increasing stakeholder involvement, and developing adaptive management techniques to handle the expanding threat Opuntia presents in China's ecosystems and agricultural sectors should take the front stage in future initiatives.

Here, we combine field observations and a simple retention-dispersion model to disentangle the short-term (hours) environmental drivers shaping the nearshore dynamics of such outbreaks. Temperature, salinity, fluorescence, current velocities, and meteorological variables were measured in the nearshore waters of a coastal location in Mallorca (Balearic Islands) during the summer of 2018. Daily averages from field data were used to adjust wind and buoyancy flow variations into a one-dimensional advection-diffusion model. Results reveal that the interplay between wind forcing and cross-shore density gradients drives an alternating retention dispersion mechanism, effectively explaining the observed diel chlorophyll variability within the nearshore boundary. This simplified model captures the primary dynamics of the bloom, isolating key factors that influence its behavior and offering practical insights for coastal water quality monitoring and management.

The SLB methane lidar camera participated in Stanford University’s 2024 Methane Controlled Release Campaign to characterize its performance at detecting, localizing, and quantifying methane emissions from different sources. The camera successfully detected and localized emissions as low as 0.3 kg/h as well as super emitters as high as 310 kg/h. The camera detected all but one emission greater than 1 kg/h, resulting in a limit of detection at 90% confidence of 1.5 kg/h. In addition, the camera localized all emissions to the correct piece of equipment or to the adjacent piece of equipment, including many releases where the camera’s vantage point was suboptimal. The emission rates measured by the camera showed a systematic underestimation compared to the ground truth results. Such an underestimation is unexpected and inconsistent with the camera’s performance in previous studies. In this paper, we perform a root cause analysis to identify the cause of the underestimation. The analysis concludes that the measured methane signal was accurate and that the underestimation was caused by a wind shadow that resulted in the camera’s anemometer systematically underestimating the wind speed. Reprocessing the methane lidar camera’s data using an on-facility anemometer not affected by a wind shadow instead of the camera’s anemometer resulted in quantification that was within a factor of two 78% of the time and a systematic bias of 11%. The 90% limit of detection, the fraction of results within a factor of two, and the systematic bias (using the on-facility anemometer), are superior to any scanning/imaging system at METEC 2023 and 2024 ADED programs. As a result of this study, improvements in the camera installation workflow have been introduced to avoid wind shadows in the future.","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\").

We test whether water tracks form through thermal channelization, where heat from viscous dissipation in flowpaths deepens the active layer, creating a preferred flow path that attracts more water. We derive equations for suprapermafrost Darcy flow and, using linear stability analysis, we calculate growth rates and obtain wavelength selection for this system, which we compare to observed water track spacing from the high Arctic. Our model predictions are sensitive to flow speed, but the predicted cross-slope water track patterns are consistent with observed water track spacing under high flow conditions in the Low Arctic. Our model implies that signatures of changing climate might be found in changing water track spacing. However, feedback between flow and thaw is unlikely to drive flow path development in areas of low flow rate.","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 sector accounts for 4.4% of global carbon emissions, with an even greater impact of 7% in the Netherlands. The latest Dutch report- Barometer Groene OK- proposes ten key measures to reduce the healthcare carbon footprint, including a shift from disposable to reusable materials. Although reusable instruments are often promoted as a sustainable alternative, their environmental impact within healthcare is contentious due to resource-intensive sterilization procedures. This critical commentary evaluates the environmental implications of reusable versus disposable surgical instruments, drawing on insights from the existing literature. Although further research is necessary, the initial findings suggest that, under current sterilization practices, disposable instruments may still have a lower environmental impact. At present, the assumption that reusable instruments are inherently more sustainable is overly simplistic. The adoption of sustainable packaging and the optimization of sterilization processes are essential steps to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of reusable instruments; however, these advancements may require several years to develop and to achieve widespread implementation. Switching prematurely to reusable surgical instruments can inadvertently increase the environmental footprint of the sector. Instead, a gradual transition - emphasising sustainable manufacturing of disposable instruments - alongside advances in sterilisation procedures - offers a more balanced and effective pathway toward sustainability in healthcare.","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\").

Tests were administered by the Alberta Methane Emissions Program (AMEP) at the Carbon Management Canada Newell County Test Facility, near Brooks, Alberta, Canada from 23-27 September 2024.\n\nTests were conducted in a blind configuration where release rates were blind to the University of Calgary. Detections and quantifications were produced by the Passive system, then reported to AMEP. Finally, real release rates were un-blinded, facilitating analysis and reporting. Localization performance was not evaluated. Release rates varied from 0.0 g/s to 2.49 g/s CH4 and were metered with a mass flow controller prior to release from a single stack. A total of 190 independent single-release, single-pass experiments were performed.\n\nDetection results indicate that PoMELO Passive effectively detected 60% to 85% of the releases < 1 g/s, and 88% to 100% of the releases > 1 g/s. There were no false positive detections. Non-detects primarily occurred in situations with low wind speeds (< 3 m/s), suggesting detection was modulated by environmental conditions.\n\nQuantification results were assessed at the single- and multi-pass scales to simulate opportunistic and targeted sampling. Single-pass quantification results had little systematic bias, but some variability (linear model slope = 0.927, r2 = 0.70). Replicates of individual release rates were aggregated to assess quantification improvement with averaging multiple plume passes. Multi-pass results similarly had little systematic bias, but less variability (linear model slope = 1.05, r2 = 0.95).\n\nBroadly, PoMELO Passive can produce high quality data in a low-cost and highly scalable deployment model. However, data users require effective tools to carefully manage uncertainty and make full use of data in assimilation and analysis systems.\n","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\").

Through shifting pest and disease dynamics, increasing frequency of extreme weather events, and modifying growth circumstances, climate change aggravates problems with plant health. For example, remote sensing data and satellite-based climate models help one to forecast how variations in temperature and precipitation patterns can influence the distribution of plant diseases and pests. This predicting makes proactive adaption tactics possible (Beddington et al., 2012).\nGeospatial instruments also allow one to track crop performance under the influence of climate-induced stresses including heat waves and drenches. This tracking helps to create strong farming methods. Geospatial technology helps stakeholders to carry focused actions that preserve plant health and guarantee the stability of food systems in a changing environment by offering thorough understanding of how climate interacts with plant life. This capacity is particularly important in sensitive areas where smallholder farmers depend on agriculture for their food security and means of income.\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":"Geospatial Technology"},{"word":"Geographical Information Systems"},{"word":"remote sensing"}],"date_submitted":"2025-02-19T16:32:22.210000+01:00","date_accepted":"2025-02-21T16:33:34.180000+01:00","date_published":"2025-02-21T08:33:00+01:00","doi":null,"preprint_doi":"10.31223/X5MQ7W","authors":[{"pk":98761,"first_name":"Emmanuel","middle_name":"Kalamji","last_name":"Lutema","salutation":"Mr","orcid":null}],"subject":[{"name":"Engineering"},{"name":"Life Sciences"},{"name":"Physical Sciences and Mathematics"}],"files":[{"original_filename":"GIS-PLANT HEALTH.pdf","mime_type":"application/pdf","download_url":"/repository/object/8597/download/16064/"}],"supplementary_files":[]},{"pk":8598,"title":"Freshwater salinization of seasonal ponds: High salinity and stratification threaten critical, overlooked habitats","abstract":"Nearly a century of road salt use in the snowbelt region of North America has led to substantial increases in salinity levels in freshwater habitats (1, 2). Salt pollution in lakes and rivers is well characterized (3, 4). Lacking are broad insights for seasonal ponds. As critical habitats for many endemic species, these small and often poorly flushed surface waters are especially vulnerable to accumulating high levels of salts and other pollutants. Here, we measured salinity in 165 seasonal ponds, characterizing salt pollution patterns across space, through time, and over depth within ponds. We found that 70% of ponds within 37 m of a road contained salinity levels exceeding Canadian federal guidelines. 54% of ponds within 25 m exceeded less conservative US federal guidelines. Within ponds, the water column was stratified due to the combined density effects of salt and temperature. Bottom waters of polluted ponds were about 57% saltier than near surface waters, though many were much saltier than this. Compared to lakes and rivers, far more seasonal ponds appear to be compromised by deicing salt, and overall, the concentration of salt appears to be substantially higher. Among aquatic habitats, seasonal ponds are experiencing the most severe impacts of freshwater salinization with consequent impacts on sensitive aquatic organisms.","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 adopted a modular approach to incorporate the ten built LCZ classes into CESM as a new option in addition to the default urban three-class scheme (i.e., tall building district, high density, and medium density). CESM simulations using the LCZ-based urban characteristics were validated globally at 20 flux tower sites, showing site-averaged improvement in modeling upward longwave radiation (LWup) and anthropogenic heat flux (Qahf), but increased uncertainties in modeling sensible heat flux (Qh). The root-mean-square error between the observed and simulated Qahf using the LCZ decreased by 4% compared to using the default. Model sensitivity experiments revealed that LWup and Qh had comparable sensitivity to LCZ urban morphological and thermal parameter subsets. This study assessed and demonstrated the implementation as the starting point for future work on better resolving urban areas in Earth system modeling.

This knowledge influences voting behavior, policy support, personal lifestyle choices, and community-level actions, all contributing to society's collective response to climate change. However, few validated tools exist to assess people's climate knowledge, particularly short questionnaires suitable for large-scale studies of psychological constructs and behaviors related to the climate crisis. This research aimed to develop and validate a short, multidimensional climate knowledge scale—the Multidimensional Climate Knowledge Scale (MACK-12). In Study 1, we created and administered an initial set of 62 items to a representative sample of 2,000 adults in Quebec, Canada. These items covered various dimensions: greenhouse effect, causes and consequences of climate change, individual and collective solutions, and climate science. We selected twelve items with high psychometric quality for inclusion in the MACK-12, ensuring coverage of all targeted dimensions. We demonstrated the scale's validity and reliability using conventional metrics, including Cronbach's alpha and correlations between respondents' scores and education level. Study 2 confirmed MACK-12's test-retest reliability through a follow-up data collection (n = 500) two weeks later. Study 3 (n = 2,513) further demonstrated the scale's construct validity by showing that respondents' scores correlated with constructs known or expected to be associated with climate change knowledge (climate change denial, environmental concern, perceived urgency to act, and climate-friendly actions). This new climate knowledge scale can help researchers and decision-makers identify knowledge gaps among Quebecers and other populations worldwide, supporting more targeted communication strategies, policy design, and behavior-change campaigns to effectively engage the public in sustainable actions. The scale also offers valuable applications for interdisciplinary research: it can be integrated into large-scale observational studies alongside other measures assessing relevant concepts, such as personal values or political orientation.","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\").

Although TC ensemble forecasts are widely used in operational numerical weather prediction systems, their potential for disaster prediction and management has not been fully exploited. Here we propose a novel, efficient, and practical method to extract meaningful Multi-Hazard Worst Case Scenarios (MHWCS) from a large ensemble TC forecast of 1000-members. We performed the ensemble atmospheric forecasting of TC Hagibis (2019) using the Japan Meteorological Agency's (JMA) nonhydrostatic model. The simulated atmospheric predictions were serving as inputs for the JMA’s operational flood forecast model, as well as statistical storm surge and gust wind models. These models estimate river flooding, storm surge, and wind hazard intensities in Tokyo. By accounting for uncertainties in ensemble multi-hazard forecasts, we objectively demonstrate that Pareto-optimal solutions can effectively identify the meaningful MHWCS. These solutions illustrate complex trade-offs among competing hazard components across various forecast locations. While some identified MHWCS pose severe risks for a single hazard type or location, others present moderately high risks across multiple hazards and locations. This diversity in potential scenarios requires risk managers to prepare multiple response strategies for both imminent risks and post-disaster management.

Recent work in high mountain environments has highlighted how rock glaciers are prevalent and contain globally valuable water supplies. Yet, over the Himalaya, information regarding their number, spatial distribution, morphometric characteristics and water content are scarce. Here, we present the first measured assessment of ice content in any Himalayan rock glacier. We use InSAR and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) surveys, respectively, to assess the current movement and ice content of a large rock glacier at Gokyo, central Nepal. This landform is situated at over 4700 m elevation and we show that parts of it are currently moving downslope at 75-100 cm per year; a figure in line with other rock glacier velocities in high arid mountains. This suggests that the rock glacier contains solid buried ice, and this is confirmed by our GPR surveys. We demonstrate the presence of massive ice units up to 250 m in length and 28 m in thickness underlies the rock glacier surface, representing an estimated total of up to 3.01 ×105 m3 of freshwater equivalent. We have recently reported that there are over 25,000 rock glaciers in the Himalayas. If the Gokyo rock glacier is representative for the region, then these landforms are likely to contain significant amounts of ice, and therefore will be of great hydrological value to downstream regions as climate change progresses and the buried ice slowly melts.","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":"Rock Glacier"},{"word":"ice content"},{"word":"Water"},{"word":"Himalaya"}],"date_submitted":"2025-02-21T13:53:01.337000+01:00","date_accepted":"2025-02-22T01:31:58.614000+01:00","date_published":"2025-02-21T17:31:00+01:00","doi":null,"preprint_doi":"10.31223/X53Q77","authors":[{"pk":79703,"first_name":"Stephan","middle_name":"","last_name":"Harrison","salutation":"Prof.","orcid":null},{"pk":98842,"first_name":"Matthew","middle_name":"","last_name":"Peacey","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":98843,"first_name":"Tristram","middle_name":"","last_name":"Irvine-Fynn","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":98844,"first_name":"Yan","middle_name":"","last_name":"Hu","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":79707,"first_name":"Karen","middle_name":"","last_name":"Anderson","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":98845,"first_name":"Ruolin","middle_name":"","last_name":"Leng","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":98846,"first_name":"Shangyu","middle_name":"","last_name":"Sun","salutation":"","orcid":null},{"pk":98847,"first_name":"Lin","middle_name":"","last_name":"Liu","salutation":"","orcid":null}],"subject":[{"name":"Physical Sciences and Mathematics"}],"files":[{"original_filename":"First empirical assessment of ice content from Himalayan rock glaciers Eartharxiv Harrison et al.pdf","mime_type":"application/pdf","download_url":"/repository/object/8614/download/16094/"}],"supplementary_files":[]},{"pk":8616,"title":"Using fracture-scarp lineations as kinematic indicators on active normal fault scarps","abstract":"Reliable kinematic (slip vector) data collected from offset piercing points, corrugations or striations, is a key input for fault based seismic hazard assessments. However, it can be difficult to interpret kinematic indicators on degraded fault scarps. In this work, we investigate the orientations and growth history of on-fault fracture networks, which extend into the footwall and have greater preservation potential, to test whether they can be used to infer slip vector. We identify various F-S lineation patterns preserved across eight faults in Italy (Central Apennines) and Greece (Perachora Peninsula), including sinistral, dextral, and parallel arrays. Our analysis reveals F-S lineations exhibit orientations that correlate with the measured slip vector, with kinematics of arrays related to slip-vector rake. Relative age relationships support a model of fracture growth where isolated en-echelon fractures evolve into interconnected networks during successive earthquakes, driven by footwall uplift and the intersection of a 3D strain ellipsoid with the fault plane. Further, we demonstrate F-S lineations and arrays may serve as reliable kinematic indicators, even on degraded fault scarps. Further analysis of on-fault fracture networks will enhance our understanding of earthquake dynamics, long-term fault behaviour, and may contribute to seismic hazard assessments through the identification of fault tips.

Advanced geospatial technologies have changed military force collecting, analysis, and spatial data interpretation, including satellite imagery, remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Emphasizing its strategic relevance in both conventional and asymmetric warfare, this paper explores the evolution, uses, and challenges of GEOINT inside modern military defense. By means of multiple case studies, the paper demonstrates how GEOINT assists targeting, mission planning, reconnaissance, and disaster response . The ethical implications and limitations of GEOINT are also assessed, particularly with regard to international law, data privacy, and security . The final section of the essay examines GEOINT's future in the context of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning that should have an even bigger influence on military operations (This in-depth analysis emphasizes the value of GEOINT in maintaining national security and its necessity in modern conflicts.","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":"Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT)"},{"word":" Military Operations"},{"word":" Surveillance"},{"word":" GIS (Geographic Information Systems)"},{"word":" Terrain Analysis"},{"word":" Targeting Systems"},{"word":" Remote Sensing"},{"word":" Conflict Zones."}],"date_submitted":"2025-02-21T21:02:24.999000+01:00","date_accepted":"2025-02-22T01:34:14.082000+01:00","date_published":"2025-02-21T17:34:00+01:00","doi":null,"preprint_doi":"10.31223/X5V72B","authors":[{"pk":98761,"first_name":"Emmanuel","middle_name":"Kalamji","last_name":"Lutema","salutation":"Mr","orcid":null}],"subject":[{"name":"Engineering"},{"name":"Physical Sciences and Mathematics"}],"files":[{"original_filename":"GEOSPATIAL INTELLIGENCE IN MODERN MILITARY OPERATIONS.pdf","mime_type":"application/pdf","download_url":"/repository/object/8618/download/16102/"}],"supplementary_files":[]},{"pk":8631,"title":"Middle Miocene Mediterranean mangroves and potential modern analogs","abstract":"During the Miocene Climatic Optimum (MCO; 17–15 Ma), the northern boundary of mangroves – now situated at ~30° N – extended along the northern Mediterranean coasts (~45° N). These Avicennia-only mangroves have been considered impoverished mangroves controlled by the general latitudinal temperature gradient. The MCO Mediterranean mangroves have been compared with the extant Middle East (ME) mangroves around the Arabian Peninsula, characterized by the dominance of Avicennia and their low diversity. However, these extant communities are not a latitudinal feature but rather an anomaly shaped by extreme environmental conditions (aridity, hypersalinity, sediment supply) that only a few mangrove species can tolerate. In contrast, reconstructed environments for MCO Mediterranean mangroves indicate mild, rainy climates. We conclude that current ME mangroves cannot be considered modern analogs for the MCO Mediterranean mangroves. Finding such modern analogs is challenging, and further studies are recommended to uncover their ecological and biogeographical patterns.

Its magnitude and temporal variability are highly uncertain, and daily-scale models capturing rapid changes to environmental drivers remain rare. We used a global database of soil CO2 efflux (total observations = 7,797,535 from 2002-2020) to train a deep learning model (Long Short-Term Memory, LSTM) to predict daily soil CO2 efflux in 82 sites across gradients of climate, soil type, and land cover. The model achieved a median train and test Nash Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE) of 0.54 and 0.02, respectively, and Kling Gupta Efficiency (KGE) of 0.67 and 0.30, respectively. The model performed well (NSE > 0.5 and KGE > 0.3) at about one-third of sites, mainly in temperate mesic ecosystems (where most training sites were located) with cyclical data patterns driven by temperature. The model performed poorly at sites with little data and noncyclical temporal patterns, mostly at extreme climates including arid, Arctic/boreal, and tropical ecosystems. The model struggled to capture soil CO2 efflux pulses and peaks/troughs, highlighting the challenges of modeling extremes in time series. Our results demonstrate that LSTM models can leverage existing data to generate synthetic daily datasets, particularly for temperate mesic regions, but also underscore the challenges of learning relationships from a spatially biased dataset. To improve model performance, future data collection should prioritize 1) historically underrepresented ecosystems with variable temperature relationships; 2) conditions under extreme weather events that may become disproportionally impactful in a warming climate.

Here we investigate the role of environmental, seasonal and age-related physiological gradients on the partitioning of net primary production (NPP) into DOC by the canopy forming giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera). Rates of DOC production were strongly influenced by an age-related decline in physiological condition (i.e. senescence). During the mature stage of giant kelp development, DOC production was a small and constant fraction of NPP regardless of tissue nitrogen content or light intensity. When giant kelp entered its senescent phase, DOC production increased substantially and was uncoupled from NPP and light intensity. Compositional analysis of giant kelp-derived DOC showed that elevated DOC production during senescence was due to the solubilization of biomass carbon, rather than by direct exudation. We coupled our incubation and physiological experiments to a novel satellite-derived 20-year time series of giant kelp canopy biomass and physiology. Annual DOC production by giant kelp varied due to differences in standing biomass between years, but on average, 74% of the annual DOC production by giant kelp was due to senescence. This study suggests DOC may be a more important fate of macroalgal NPP than previously recognized.

Previous studies considered trends and ENSO influences separately, reporting upward trends in intensity and more cases of RI during La Niña conditions. Here we extended and built upon prior work by including data through 2024, assessing the impact of ENSO on LMI and 24-h intensification, and analyzing a new storm metric called lifetime maximum 24-h intensification (LM24I). The statistical methods employed here improve upon previous ones by better assessing uncertainty and statistical significance, simultaneously estimating trends and ENSO-related variability, and addressing problems arising from the 5-kt discretization of best-track intensity data. Quantile and logistic regression were employed extensively. The main findings include the following: Prior estimates of intensification trends were overconfident, and including recent data reduces prior estimates of trends in intensification, RI frequency, and LMI. The distribution of LM24I shows significant upward trends of 3–5 kt per decade in its top quantiles and broad increases of 2–5 kt per degree of Niño-3.4 cooling. During La Niña conditions, the frequencies of RI events and RI storms increase, and the distributions of 24-h intensification and LMI show previously unreported broad and significant increases. Directions for future research include applying the same approaches to other intensity metrics, basins, and model output, and leveraging ENSO predictability for seasonal intensity prediction.

However, these models are still subject to considerable uncertainties that mainly originate from three sources: (1) imbalances in data quality and availability across geographical regions and between hydrologic variables, (2) poorly quantified human influence on the water cycle, and (3) difficulties in tailoring process representations to regionally diverse hydrologic systems. New, more accurate, and larger datasets, as well as better accumulated and even improved knowledge, will help to reduce these uncertainties and eventually lead to model advancement. In this review, we explore sources of uncertainty critical to global water models and define actions to reduce them where possible, therefore providing a guide for global model advancement. Following this path will increase the robustness of model outputs, which is urgently needed to tackle key scientific and societal challenges.","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\").

Government agencies released guidance on assessing personal risk, pointing to publicly available data platforms that present information from regulatory and low-cost monitoring networks. Additional satellite-based products provide useful supplementary information during dynamic wildfire smoke events. We evaluate the regional air quality impacts of the fires through publicly available fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) observations. Specifically, we analyze pollutant data from regulatory monitoring stations, PurpleAir sensors, the TEMPO and TROPOMI satellite sensors, and HMS Smoke Plumes during the January 2025 Los Angeles wildfires. The most extreme air quality impacts were observed on January 8 and 9, particularly in the southern half of Los Angeles County. While smoke impacts were largely consistent across all evaluated data sources, differences in the spatial and temporal resolution of each product may affect interpretability for end users. This study underscores the importance of integrating multiple air quality data sources and improving accessibility to enhance public health messaging during wildfire events.

This study introduces a novel strategy, the AutoKeras-Knowledge Distillation (AK-KD), which integrates knowledge distillation technology for joint optimization of large and small models in the retrieval of surface temperature and emissivity using thermal infrared remote sensing. The approach addresses the challenges of limited accuracy in surface temperature retrieval by employing a high-performance large model developed through AutoKeras as the teacher model, which subsequently enhances a less accurate small model through knowledge distillation. The resultant student model is interactively integrated with the large model to further improve specificity and generalization capabilities. Theoretical derivations and practical applications validate that the AK-KD strategy significantly enhances the accuracy of temperature and emissivity retrieval. For instance, a large model trained with simulated ASTER data achieved a Pearson Correlation Coefficient (PCC) of 0.999 and a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.348K in surface temperature retrieval. In practical applications, this model demonstrated a PCC of 0.967 and an MAE of 0.685K. Although the large model exhibits high average accuracy, its precision in complex terrains is comparatively lower. To ameliorate this, the large model, serving as a teacher, enhances the small model's local accuracy. Specifically, in surface temperature retrieval, the small model's PCC improved from an average of 0.978 to 0.979, and the MAE decreased from 1.065K to 0.724K. In emissivity retrieval, the PCC rose from an average of 0.827 to 0.898, and the MAE reduced from 0.0076 to 0.0054. This research not only provides robust technological support for further development of thermal infrared remote sensing in temperature and emissivity retrieval but also offers important references and key technological insights for the universal model construction of other geophysical parameter retrievals.

To date, global patterns of D\" anisotropy have been mostly derived from long wavelength radially anisotropic tomography models, which often disagree except for the large-scale degree-2 pattern. Here, we present 70,000 differential splitting measurements from seismic waves that traverse Earth's mantle and core, sampling nearly 75% of D\", including most seismically faster regions. We conduct detailed synthetic tests to demonstrate which splitting measurements indicate the presence of lowermost mantle anisotropy. Evidence for D\" anisotropy is found in about two thirds of our sampled area, more than doubling the area in which seismic anisotropy has been detected using shear-wave splitting measurements. Inferred deformation is strong within and around ancient slab remnants, which likely have lower temperatures than the ambient mantle. This is consistent with the crystallographic orientation of postperovskite (pPv) being an important contributor to the new maps of lowermost mantle anisotropy. Our observations suggest a close link between the subduction of tectonic plates and convective flow in the deepest mantle.","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 investigate the upper- and mid-crustal seismic velocity structure of a region within the central, rhyolitic part of the TVZ encompassing the high- temperature geothermal systems Mokai, Wairakei, Ng¯a Tamariki, Orakei Korako, Te Kopia and Rotokawa. Using double-difference tomographic inversion of local earthquake data we derive 3-D models of P-wave velocity (Vp) and the P- to S-wave velocity ratio (Vp/Vs) for the subsurface. Both high (> 6.0 km/s) and low (< 5.5 km/s) Vp heterogeneities are seen in the mid-crust between 5 and 11 km depth. Regions with high Vp are interpreted to indicate the presence of solidified, more mafic, material within an otherwise quartzo-feldspathic crust, while regions with low Vp values are inferred to represent bodies of crystal-rich low-melt-fraction magma with a low melt fraction. Using the new 3-D velocity model we then relocated ∼9100 earthquakes recorded between 2009 and 2022, using EQTransformer to determine P- and S -phase arrival times. The relocated seismicity is strongly clustered, including in the vicinity of some of the geothermal systems (e.g. Wairakei and Rotokawa) where fluid is currently being extracted for electric-power production. Mid-crustal seismicity is also observed west of the Wairakei geothermal field, as well as along the south-eastern margin of the Ngakuru graben (a region of active surface faulting and extension) and on the western margin of the Whakamaru caldera. The depth distribution of the highest-quality hypocentres shows that 90% of the seismicity at Rotokawa geothermal field occurs at depths shallower than 5.1 km, consistent with a shallow brittle-ductile transition and the presence of a cooling pluton beneath Rotokawa seen in magnetotelluric data

However, the black-box nature of AI models act as a critical obstacle against their integration into existing forecasting operations. This study addresses this issue by implementing an explainable AI framework that translates model behavior into human-understandable information. Our proposed framework integrates example-based explanations, which provide interpretations in the form of user-familiar materials such as radar data, and unsupervised concept vector analysis, which identifies semantic concepts captured by the internal vector space of AI models, to interpret a forecasting model's behavior in terms of human-understandable weather concepts. We develop a multi-label self-supervised deep clustering algorithm to derive perceptually meaningful representations from an insufficient embedding space. Our method improves clustering performance over baseline methods, achieving an increase of 0.5358 in terms of silhouette coefficients. We assess the interpretability of the extracted concepts by performing a survey with five forecasters regarding the homogeneity of selected rainfall patterns. The results indicate comparable accuracies between human label-based (80%) and model-based (92%) examples. Furthermore, the proposed method can effectively distinguish between polar low and typhoon cases, successfully capturing the nonlinear weather patterns represented by data-driven models. Our explanation framework may be extended to explore the internal decision behaviors of state-of-the-art multivariable models by extracting nonlinear rainfall development and dissipation mechanisms in a human-interpretable manner.","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 paper examines both the scientific and social dimensions of this disaster by exploring the natural drivers that led to the flooding and the sociopolitical context that caused rumors to spread that the floods were far from natural. We begin with a climatic and hydrological analysis that provides an objective explanation of the flood’s severity based on a convergence of intensified monsoon rainfall, the Madden-Julian Oscillation, and a repositioned jet stream. We then leverage misinformation studies to explain the rapid spread of misleading narratives in the wake of the floods, including allegations of deliberate upstream dam releases by India. Our findings highlight that effective flood preparedness, response, and recovery require not only a scientific grasp of the “numbers” that explain natural drivers but also a nuanced understanding of the “narratives” that shape public perception and action, whether constructive or detrimental. Using the notion of engineering diplomacy, we argue that the mutual acknowledgment of common interests and a focus on collaborative, practical projects can lead to progress on immediate flood management needs while creating the enabling conditions for broader cooperation between transboundary nations like India and Bangladesh. We briefly examine the existing approaches for flood management between the two countries and suggest several tangible pilot projects and initiatives. In exploring both the scientific and social dimensions of the 2024 floods, this paper highlights a critical gap in common approaches to flood preparedness, response, and recovery, emphasizing the need for collaboration and trust-building to transform natural hazards into opportunities for sustainable action. The proposed coordinated and mutually beneficial strategies using the notion of engineering diplomacy have the potential to ensure future natural hazards do not lead to national disasters.\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\").

However, limited literature connects them, particularly incorporating critical perspectives. We explored interactions between these approaches conceptually, institutionally, and empirically, aiming to chart a conceptual genealogy of these interactions.\n \nMethods\nWe conducted a scoping review using Arksey and O’Malley’s method and Levac’s revisions, exploring the health, security, and ecology literatures. We identified 75 eligible sources of 10,352 screened and synthesised findings inductively using Braun and Clarke’s thematic approach.\n \nFindings\nWe generated five themes across these literatures: (1) environmental health as security issue; (2) biosecurity and non-traditional security; (3) institutional connections; (4) militarisation and environmental health; and (5) emerging risk-management methods and technologies. We found multiple descriptions of environmental health as ‘crisis’ and ‘security’ issue, yet health security’s scope was primarily limited to containing emerging infectious diseases, rather than prevention or broader health concerns.\n \nConclusion\nThis initial exploration across disciplinary literatures of conceptual interactions between planetary health and health security showed both mobilising the language of ‘security’ to frame health issues, while raising concerns over inequitable experiences for some populations resulting from this framing. An overt emphasis on containment over prevention and tacit commitments to the protection of some lives over others could result in asymmetrical health experiences, rendering some geographies and populations ‘sacrificial’ in their health risks.","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 this study, a model of the U.S. West Coast power system is combined with a financial risk model of a large California electric utility as it responds to variable hydrometeorology and market conditions, and is used to test the performance of a novel financial tool for managing risk. An insurance contract based on a composite index of measures related to streamflow, temperature, and natural gas prices is developed and its cost-effectiveness is compared against a portfolio of three currently available index contracts each based on a single index. The new composite index contract achieves an equivalent reduction in the utility’s net revenue variance as a portfolio of the three existing contract types for roughly half the cost with the cost reduction largely attributable to lower basis risk associated with the composite index contract. The utility's financial risk and the effectiveness of the new contract are also explored under an alternative regulatory scenario involving a pollution tax intended to reduce air pollution damages and emissions. Overall, this case study represents a new approach to managing financial risk arising from hydrometeorological and market variability for vertically integrated utilities, the most common utility structure.","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 introduce locationallocation, an R package to solve Maximal Coverage Location-Allocation problems using geospatial data in widely used R programming language geospatial libraries. The package allows to produce travel time maps and spatially optimizing the allocation of facilities in both continuous and discrete choice problems and based on spatial accessibility criteria weighted by one or more variables or a function of those.

We introduce a novel metric to quantify simultaneous drought and heatwave exposure, applying it to Niger’s Dosso region over a 24-year period (2000–2023) using remote sensing and GIS-based techniques. Our analysis reveals distinct spatiotemporal patterns: Southern and northern municipalities emerge as heatwave hotspots, while drought frequency shifts from southern dominance during peak rainy seasons to central and northern prevalence throughout the rainy season, with most droughts classified as mild. The metric identifies critical years of profound compound hazard occurrence—2000, 2002, 2009, 2011, 2015, and 2021— in northern and central-eastern municipalities. By integrating multi-hazard dynamics, this innovative approach enhances understanding of localised compound climate hazard exposure and lays the groundwork to inform targeted adaptation strategies in climate-vulnerable regions.","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, current models often rely on simplistic assumptions for sectoral water allocation, limiting their ability to capture real-world complexities such as prioritization and competition among water uses. This paper introduces a theoretical two-layer framework that distinguishes between essential and prosperity water demands across key sectors, including domestic, livestock, industry, irrigation, and environmental flows. Essential demands represent baseline requirements to prevent severe socio-economic and ecological impacts, while prosperity demands encompass more discretionary uses that can be curtailed under scarcity. The framework is coupled with a ’traffic light’ system inspired by the drought management practices at the Catalan Water Agency to guide allocation decisions, dynamically adapting to water availability. This approach, if implemented or further developed, can significantly enhance the realism of global water models, providing actionable insights for sustainable water resource management.","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\").

Highly intermittent systems, which only transport bedload during the most significant flow events, are particularly sensitive to changes in climate and precipitation patterns. Quantifying river intermittency is critical for assessing how fluvial landscapes will respond to projected changes in precipitation extremes due to climate change, and due to the vulnerability of landscapes and people to fluvial processes. Here, we generate new constraints on recent to modern fluvial intermittency factors – the frequency at which bedload is mobilized in a river – based on field measurements in the Gulf of Corinth, Greece, and Holocene sediment accumulation rates. Results reveal some of the lowest documented intermittency factors to-date, showing Mediterranean rivers can transport their entire annual sediment budget in a rare storm event. Coupling intermittency calculations with historical flood and precipitation data indicates rivers in this environment are dominated by bedload transport during one storm every c. 4 years, associated with rainfall > 50 mm/d and subsequent floods; this hydroclimate is typical of the Mediterranean. Furthermore, climate models predict precipitation extremes will increase across Europe, and the frequency of events that surpass thresholds of sediment transport will increase non-linearly, potentially causing sediment budgets to double by 2100. As the global area of arid land likely to host intermittent rivers also increases, intermittency-dominated landscapes are on the edge of significant geomorphic change, driven by global warming.","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\").
