Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.This study quantifies the influence of multidimensional effects on site response in the Wellington region of New Zealand by comparing results from different simulation approaches. Response‐spectral amplification functions from 1D and 2D site response analyses are compared to quantify the magnitude and spatial distribution of multidimensional effects ...

Tides of the Midland: From Groundwater Into the River
Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.Tides in a river that is NOT influenced by the ocean, is not in the coastal area and is more than 300 m above sea level are caused by groundwater tides. As the phases of the Moon change, the amplitudes of the streamwater oscillations vary synchronously with those of gravitational acceleration.

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 972-986, August 2026.ABSTRACT The Aso‐3 tephra is one of the most significant widespread marker layers from the Middle to Late Pleistocene, generated by a large caldera‐forming eruption at the Aso volcano in Kyushu, southwestern Japan. Despite its importance, a distal co‐ignimbrite ash correlative has yet to be clearly identified, primarily because although volcanic glass ...

Near Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 303-324, August 2026.Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has been shown to be effective for surveying and monitoring dams, due to the method's sensitivity to moisture content and relevant physical properties (e.g., porosity). Automated ERT systems, capable of time‐lapse monitoring, can be used to detect variations in ground conditions.

Reassessing Alpine Permafrost Thermal State by Accounting for Ground Ice
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Permafrost thermal state, representing the stored “cold energy” in the ground, is crucial for assessing permafrost changes. However, the conventional metric, mean annual ground temperature (MAGT), has inherent limitations because it overlooks the thermodynamic contribution of ground ice.
