Field Observations of Decreasing Rock Fracturing Rates Over Geologic Time

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Rock fracturing regulates the topography, carbon cycle, geologic hazards, and infrastructure degradation of the Earth. Yet, there remains a paucity of constraints on long‐term fracturing behavior. Here we use field measurements of 2221 clasts across a range of environments and rock types to show that the number and total length of fractures in

Geography and intra-national home bias : U.S. domestic trade in 1949 and 2007 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper examines home bias in U.S. domestic trade in 1949 and 2007. We use a unique data set of 1949 carload waybill statistics produced by the Interstate Commerce Commission, and 2007 Commodity Flow Survey data.

Facilitated Transport of Organic Contaminants in a High Concentration, Multicomponent Plume

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 62-83, Winter 2026.
Abstract A field experiment evaluated the transport of organic contaminants in a plume from hazardous waste disposal areas at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal. The plume contained many xenobiotic contaminants, with widely varying expected mobilities.

Odour Nuisance of Railway Sleepers Saturated with Creosote Oil

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2016
In recent years, Europe has increased rapidly the use of concrete railway sleepers, however wooden sleepers are still used, mainly for technical reasons (eg. low sensitivity to temperature fluctuations), as well as economic (eg.

Dynamic Risk From Mexican Wolves and Mountain Lions Influences Elk Foraging Behavior

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
We observed elk foraging across a wolf risk gradient throughout all seasons and diel periods to quantify proportions of foraging, intense vigilance, and multitasking at the individual and herd levels. We quantified encounter and kill risk from Mexican wolves and mountain lions using habitat selection functions and utilization distributions.

Disentangling Natural and Anthropogenic Sources of Dust Deposition to a Montane Ecosystem at San Jacinto Peak, Southern California

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract The composition and flux of mineral dust are largely driven by the entrainment and transport of sediment from both natural and human sources, resulting in varying ecological impacts at the deposition site. To investigate the influence of natural and human sources of dust in montane environments, we measured dust composition and deposition rate

Application of computer vision for off‐highway vehicle route detection: A case study in Mojave desert tortoise habitat

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 510-523, October 2025.
Our study leverages advanced computer vision models, which we trained on a unique collection of geospatial imagery, to detect off‐highway vehicle (OHV) routes in the Mojave Desert, a critical habitat for the threatened Mojave desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii).

Bioproduction of Nordihydroguaiaretic and Ellagic Acid from Creosote Bush Leaves (Larrea tridentata) Using Solid-State Fermentation with Aspergillus niger GH1

open access: yesFermentation
Creosote bush (Larrea tridentata), a shrub distributed across approximately 19 Mha of arid North American regions, has traditional applications in folk medicine due to the presence of bioactive molecules such as nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) and ...

Consistent microbial and nutrient resource island patterns during monsoon rain in a Chihuahuan Desert bajada shrubland

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
In dryland soils, spatiotemporal variation in surface soils (0–10 cm) plays an important role in the function of the “critical zone” that extends from canopy to groundwater.
