Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Research on gender in higher education frequently focuses on either micro‐ or macro‐scale factors, such as power relations and working practices, or disciplinary norms and the educational ‘pipeline’.

Testing Driving Mechanisms of Megathrust Seismicity With Explainable Artificial Intelligence

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract The correlation between subduction zone features and megathrust seismicity provides relevant clues on what controls the generation, location and clustering of mega‐earthquakes (magnitudes Mw ≥ 8.0). Thus far, weak correlations are found between subduction zone parameters and seismicity through bivariate statistical analyses.
