Developing a simple soil erosion model including spatial variability in headwater catchments
Abstract Hillslopes and stream channels are tightly linked in headwater catchments, where soil erosion on slopes is transported to channels depending on topography, soil properties, and ground cover conditions. Because these environments are highly spatially variable, geographic information system (GIS)‐based modeling approaches are effective for ...

An airborne Doppler Lidar [PDF]
A pulsed CO2 Doppler Lidar, developed for airborne measurements of atmospheric wind fields, is described. In-flight tests show that the device can be successfully utilized in the detection and measurement of mountain-wave turbulence and wind shear, and ...

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Airborne Near Infrared Three-Dimensional Ghost Imaging LiDAR via Sparsity Constraint
Three-dimensional ghost imaging LiDAR via sparsity constraint (3D GISC LiDAR), as a staring imaging method, can obtain both the range information and spatial distribution of a remote target with a single-pixel time-resolved detector.

Lake Tahoe bottom characteristics extracted from SHOALS lidar waveform data and compared to backscatter data from a Multibeam echo sounder [PDF]
The waveforms recorded by airborne lidar bathymetry (ALB) systems are currently processed only for depth information. In addition to bathymetry, multibeam echo sounder (MBES) systems provide backscatter data in which regions of different acoustic ...

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean
The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...

Eruption Source Parameters in Volcanic Plume Modeling: Advances, Challenges, and Future Directions
Abstract Accurately predicting the atmospheric dispersion of volcanic ash and gases is crucial for both scientific understanding and hazard mitigation. Estimating Eruption Source Parameters (ESP), such as mass eruption rate, plume height, duration, and particle size distribution and properties, remains challenging due to the complex nature of volcanic ...
