Regional Sustainability Assessment Under Risk and Uncertainty: A Water–Energy–Food Based Framework
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Regional sustainability assessment requires integrated structures that can examine the interactions between Water–Energy–Food (WEF) systems, socio‐economic risk conditions, and performance outcomes under uncertainty. This study proposes a multidimensional framework that combines a suitability index, composite sustainability indicators ...

GRAPES: Earthquake Early Warning by Passing Seismic Vectors Through the Grapevine
Geophysical Research LettersEstimating an earthquake's magnitude and location may not be necessary to predict shaking in real time; instead, wavefield‐based approaches predict shaking with few assumptions about the seismic source.

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Smart cities and urban digital twins have fostered the emergence of immersive environments, such as the metaverse. While contemporary scholarlship has increasingly examined the integration of the metaverse within smart city infrastructures, the critical nexus between urban sustainability and the metaverse remains largely under‐researched. This

Low frequency seismogenic electromagnetic emissions as precursors to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in Japan [PDF]
, 1991 A multipoint network was constructed in the Tokyo area for earthquake prediction using seismogenic electromagnetic emissions. The network consists of eight observation points within 50 km of each other.Each point has a digital direction-finding detector ...

Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),

A combined method for high-speed rail seismic monitoring and early warning
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2017 The ground motion characteristics include the strength, frequency spectrum and duration time. In China, the PGA (peak ground acceleration) is commonly used in determination of whether an earthquake warning is necessary when the high-speed train is on the

Forgoing Nuclear: Nuclear Power Plant Closures and Carbon Emissions in the United States
Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the effect of nuclear power plant decommissioning on electricity generation and carbon emissions in the United States. Using data on nuclear reactor closures in the United States between 1993 and 2022 and data on state‐level carbon emissions and electricity generation from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), this ...
