Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2618-2633, September 2026.ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Morphological Changes and Alterations in Erosion–Accretion Patterns in a Semiarid Brazilian River
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.Flow regulation by the Castanhão Dam significantly altered discharge dynamics and reduced sediment transport in the Jaguaribe River. Long‐term analysis (1958–2025) reveals attenuated flood peaks, decreased channel migration and progressive downstream stabilisation, highlighting persistent geomorphic adjustments in a regulated semiarid fluvial system ...

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017 Two recent sea-going expeditions showed that mud diapirism is a common feature in the accretionary wedge of the Mediterranean Ridge, but unlike in other prisms, it is well expressed exclusively in the most elevated areas of the Ridge.

Navigating Classical and Nonclassical Realms of Nucleation and Crystallization
Small, Volume 22, Issue 50, 7 September 2026.Classical nucleation and growth theories have long been foundational, yet recent nonclassical concepts have challenged and refined our understanding of solid‐state genesis. This paradigm shift introduced new, often ambiguous vocabulary. Here, we clarify key concepts, correct common misconceptions, and provide a terminological field guide across systems,

Tectonostratigraphic Evolution of the Barbados Accretionary Prism and the Tobago Basin: Implications for Petroleum Systems [PDF]
, 2016 Master's thesis in Petroleum geosciences engineeringThe Barbados accretionary prism is the only commercially hydrocarbon producing prism in the world. However, the offshore region is still underexplored and only one well has been drilled.

Frontiers in Marine ScienceThe Makran accretionary prism (MAP) resulted from the low-angle, slow-rate subduction of the Arabian Plate beneath the Eurasian Plate. The MAP is an active continental margin, with natural gas hydrate (NGH).

Sedimentary and tectonic evolution of Paleocene-Eocene chaotic facies from Western Ligurian Flysch (Italy) [PDF]
Swiss Journal of GeosciencesChaotic deposits are common in convergent margins and are crucial for understanding subduction dynamics and basin evolution. This study re-evaluates key chaotic deposits within the Western Ligurian Flysch, focusing on the Colla Domenica Shales and the ...
