On the use of a split Hopkinson pressure bar in structural geology

open access: yes, 2022
S.225-236There is increasing evidence that seismogenic fractures can propagate faster than the shear wave velocity of the surrounding rocks. Strain rates within the tip region of such super-shear earthquake ruptures can reach deformation conditions ...

Exploring Best Practices in Geoscience Education: Adapting a Video/Animation on Continental Rifting for Upper-Division Students to a Lower-Division Audience

open access: yes, 2021
Well-crafted and scientifically accurate videos and animations can be effective ways to teach dynamic Earth processes such as continental rifting, both in live course offerings as well as in online settings.

Heat Recovery Potential and Hydrochemistry of Mine Water Discharges From Scotland’s Coalfields

open access: yesEarth Science, Systems and Society, 2022
Prospective and operational mine water geothermal projects worldwide have faced challenges created by mine water chemistry (e.g., iron scaling, corrosion) and high expenditure costs (e.g., drilling or pumping costs) among others.

Characterization of artesian flow and heat transition in an ATES research wellbore using DTS monitoring and numerical modelling [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences
In the practice of Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES), the hydraulic connection to the wellbore of any other aquifers besides the planned thermal storage should be identified and prohibited in order to operate the ATES system in a sustainable way. The

Mapping Canada’s Green Economic Pathways for Battery Minerals: Balancing Prospectivity Modelling With Conservation and Biodiversity Values

open access: yesEarth Science, Systems and Society, 2022
Electrification of Canada’s energy and transport sectors is essential to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and will require a vast amount of raw materials.

Generation of spatial grids for hydrometeorological data in hydrogeological investigations for Colombia [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences
In Colombia, water resources management is carried out with insufficient hydrometeorological information in most of the territory. Natural and social conditions make it complex and difficult to densify the monitoring of primary variables for analysis. As

Future water storage changes over the Mediterranean, Middle East, and North Africa in response to global warming and stratospheric aerosol intervention [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics
Water storage plays a profound role in the lives of people across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) as it is the most water-stressed region worldwide.

Cosmogenic nuclide-derived downcutting rates of canyons within large limestone plateaus of southern Massif Central (France) reveal a different regional speleogenesis of karst networks [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
We present 35 new burial ages (27 sites) based on 26Al / 10Be ratios of terrestrial cosmogenic radionuclides measured in clasts and sediments deep within 12 caves in the southern Massif Central, France.

Geomorphic risk maps for river migration using probabilistic modeling – a framework [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Lateral migration of meandering rivers poses erosional risks to human settlements, roads, and infrastructure in alluvial floodplains. While there is a large body of scientific literature on the dominant mechanisms driving river migration, it is still not

Time-varying drainage basin development and erosion on volcanic edifices [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
The erosional state of a landscape is often assessed through a series of metrics that quantify the morphology of drainage basins and divides. Such metrics have been well explored in tectonically active environments to evaluate the role of different ...
