Bayesian Analysis of Flood Prediction Using Mixture Models of Weighted Inverse Rayleigh and Gumbel Type‐II Distributions

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This article develops a two‐component mixture model combining the weighted Inverse Rayleigh (WIR) distribution and Gumbel Type‐II distribution for the estimation and prediction of flood events. The study utilizes 29 years (1990–2018) of flood data from the Federal Flood Commission (FFC) of Pakistan for the Jhelum River, using two gauging ...

Wave Propagation in a Micropolar Transversely Isotropic Generalized Thermoelastic Half-Space

International Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2014
Rayleigh waves in a half-space exhibiting microplar transversely isotropic generalized thermoelastic properties based on the Lord-Shulman (L-S), Green and Lindsay (G-L) and Coupled thermoelasticty (C-T) theories are discussed.

Tide‐Modulated Ocean‐to‐Earth Energy Conversion Quantified With Coastal Fiber Sensing

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Quantifying how incident ocean waves transfer energy into seismic surface waves along the nearshore is essential for understanding coastal hazards and Earth–ocean coupling, yet time‐resolved in situ estimates have been scarce. Here we use a beach‐deployed distributed acoustic sensing array co‐located with an ocean‐bottom node to directly ...

Application of theoretical models to active and passive remote sensing of saline ice [PDF]

The random medium model is used to interpret the polarimetric active and passive measurements of saline ice. The ice layer is described as a host ice medium embedded with randomly distributed inhomogeneities, and the underlying sea water is considered as

Sources of Subseasonal Predictability for Precipitation in South America Based on Model Experiments

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the sources of predictability underlying subseasonal precipitation skill over South America in existing subseasonal prediction systems. Using subseasonal re‐forecasts from the NCAR‐CESM2 model, we demonstrate that significant skill persists even when interannual variability is removed.

Characteristic Geometry of Keels in Arctic Sea Ice Ridges

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Deformation within and between sea ice floes creates pressure ridges, which compose a considerable volume fraction of the Arctic sea ice cover and complicate sea ice volume measurements. An important parameter for quantifying the ice volume contained in these deformation features is the keel shape.

Phase Topology Stability of an Optical Vortex via an Electrically Controlled Twist‐Planar Oriented Liquid Crystal Fresnel Lens

Advanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 5, 2 February 2026.
A simple and efficient method for determining the stability of optical vortices via Fourier transform using a conventional spherical lens is presented. The theoretical and experimental results demonstrate a practical approach to directly and unambiguously measure the magnitude and sign of the topological charge of a beam without altering an ...

Risk Efficiencies of Empirical Bayes and Generalized Maximum Likelihood Estimates for Rayleigh Model under Censored Data

Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2014
The comparison of empirical Bayes and generalized maximum likelihood estimates of reliability performances is made in terms of risk efficiencies when the data are progressively Type II censored from Rayleigh distribution.

Sabatier‐Adjusted d‐Band Centers of Scalable Asymmetric Iron Sites toward Dynamic Nonradical Network for Fast Mineralization with Low‐Amount Oxidant

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Asymmetric iron single‐atom catalysts with Sabatier‐adjusted d‐band centers overcome the inherent limitations of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation by establishing a synergistic nonradical pathway network, achieving exceptional pollutant mineralization (≈85%) at only one‐tenth conventional PMS dosage.

Spatiotemporal Variation in Marine Mammal Antipredator Behaviors Resulting From a Predation Pinch Point

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Using 17 years of biologging data from 353 adult female northern elephant seals, we explored how seals modified their use of time and space when moving through nearshore areas where predation risk is high. We found that seals tended to depart at night, arrive during the day, and perform benthic dives along the continental shelf.
