Seismic Structural Response and Loss Estimation for Dense Urban Districts Using Neural Network Parameterized Gaussian Process

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 397-412, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Earthquakes pose a major threat to urban areas, causing fatalities, injuries, and significant economic losses. This study proposes a Gaussian process parametrized by deep neural networks (DNN–GP) as an efficient surrogate for assessing seismic losses of building structures at a regional scale.

Tsunami Casualty Risk Assessment Integrating Evacuation Tower Placement, Seismic Road Network Performance Enhancement, and Disaster Education

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 500-520, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake, tsunami evacuation towers have been constructed in coastal regions based on worst‐case predictions to provide additional safety margins against unprecedented tsunamis. However, the extent to which such assumptions effectively reduce casualty risk remains unclear.

Scour hole behaviour: A field study of the Dutch Rhine Delta

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
Scour hole behaviour can be divided into dynamic and stable. Dynamic scour holes grow in area, depth and volume during seasonal discharge variations and are typically located in discharge‐dominated river reaches. Stable scour holes are found in tidal rivers with heterogeneous riverbeds and show nearly fixed dimensions.

Blood‐Based Lead Biomarkers and Sarcopenia Indicators in Older Adults

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic exposure to low levels of lead (Pb) remains a widespread public health issue, especially among older adults. While its neurotoxic and cardiovascular effects are well recognized, its potential role in accelerating age‐related musculoskeletal decline is less understood.

Flooding and a complex predator community drive American oystercatcher nest and chick survival in Virginia

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated low American oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) productivity in the Virginia barrier islands, which historically supported high oystercatcher reproductive success. We found that chick survival was lower than nest survival, and that management may need to adapt to address evolving threats from coastal flooding and a multi‐guild ...
