Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Arc Heat Flow and Magmatic Heat Budgets
Abstract We evaluate hydrothermal heat loss from 11 volcanic‐arc segments (∼6,000 km of arc length, ∼10% of the global total), motivated by the observation that much magmatic heat ultimately crosses the land surface as heated aqueous fluid. Heat loss takes place by volcanic eruption, geothermal heat conduction to the surface, fumarolic (vapor ...

Abstract Landslides can block rivers and create natural dams that pose significant flooding hazards to upstream and downstream. Variations in dam materials and geometries play a critical role in controlling breach initiation and failure processes, thereby complicating failure assessment.

Abstract Freshwater systems in Central Europe are increasingly vulnerable to climate change and anthropogenic pressures. This study investigates future dynamics of Lake Groß Glienicke, a groundwater‐fed lake experiencing rapid water‐level decline in recent decades.

Antimicrobial resistance and biofilm‐specific tolerance of cultivable Pseudomonas, Bacillus, Brevibacillus and Paenibacillus isolated from deep‐sea sediments of a methane‐seep area off the Southern Brazilian coast. These findings underscore the role of deep‐sea environments as potential reservoirs for antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria (ARB) and ...

Protein sequence surveys show that nickel‐ and molybdenum/copper‐containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) are widespread in the ocean. Phylogenetic and genome context analyses reveal that marine CODHs are highly diverse in both evolutionary history and functional organisation.

From short to long: The impact of read length on metagenome assembly and binning
Abstract Metagenome sequencing not only plays a pivotal role in unravelling the genetic diversity and functional potential of microbial communities but also facilitates the discovery of genome context for microbial dark matter. This study presents a comparative analysis of metagenome sequencing strategies, focusing on the impact of read length on the ...

First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.

Rapid Assessment of Flood‐Induced Agricultural Losses to Support Infrastructure and Policy Decisions
ABSTRACT Flooding imposes persistent and economically significant damage on agricultural production, yet existing damage assessment frameworks inadequately characterize the full spectrum of crop production impacts. This study develops an integrated, stochastic modeling framework to quantify three distinct agricultural flood‐damage aspects—prevented ...

Bivalves from Cretaceous cold-seep deposits on Hokkaido, Japan
Cretaceous cold−seep deposits of the Yezo Group on Hokkaido, Japan, yield a rich and well−preserved mollusk fauna. The systematics of nine bivalve species previously reported from these deposits can now be reevaluated using newly collected fossils.
