Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

Integrating Grain to Ground Motion Data for Critical Rock Bridge and Slope Failure Analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 16, Page 5891-5918, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Rock masses can fail catastrophically with little warning, yet their stability depends on hidden internal connections that channel forces and localise damage. Among these, rock bridges–a “known unknown” in slope mechanics–lock fractured rock and control how failure unfolds, but their concealed geometry and uncertain strength obscure where and ...

Measuring Dry Deposition of Sea Spray Aerosol and Height of Aerosol Plume Using a Controlled Wave Pool

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Deposition of sea spray aerosols facilitates atmospheric corrosion of materials, requiring maintenance and replacement over time. However, the dimensions of sea spray aerosol plumes produced from breaking waves have not been well‐characterized, limiting useful prediction of particle transport downwind and atmospheric corrosion. Therefore, this

Measurements of the Size and Physical Properties of Marine Particles Using Atomic Force Microscopy: Implications for Marine Biogeochemical Cycles

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Particle size and physical properties such as stiffness and adhesiveness affect sinking velocity and flux in the ocean, yet conventional two‐dimensional measurements lack accuracy and mechanical information. In this study, we applied atomic force microscopy (AFM) to quantify three‐dimensional size and physical properties of marine particles ...

Water Storage Capacity Dynamics in Drained Boreal Peatlands: Responses to Rewetting and Climate Change

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Historical peatland drainage resulted in surface subsidence and reduced water storage capacity (WSC), a process that can be exacerbated by climate change. We assessed the effects of rewetting on WSC using mesocosm experiments in climate chambers, field measurements, and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) analysis.
