What Is the Energy Budget of Subduction Zone Hazards?
Abstract Subduction zones are host to some of the largest and most devastating geohazards on Earth. The magnitude of these hazards is often measured by the amount of energy they release over short periods of time, which itself depends on how much stored energy is available for the geologic processes that drive these hazards.

Readjustment of the national geodetic vertical datum
New geodetic techniques and computer technology are providing scientists in the United States and other countries of North America with the precise tools needed to modernize the North American horizontal and vertical geodetic control networks—a web of geodetic survey monuments that spans the continent.

Abstract Maars are volcanoes with a central crater surrounded by an ejecta ring formed through surface explosive processes from underlying magma interacting with fluids. The study of terrestrial maar volcanoes, as analogs to explosive volcanic vents on the Moon and other planets, can improve our understanding of planetary volcanism and evolution.

Abstract Hurricane‐induced morphological changes and associated community hazards along sandy, barrier‐island coastlines have been studied primarily from the perspective of ocean‐side attack by storm‐driven ocean surge and large waves. Thus, our understanding of long‐term barrier island morphological change focuses on beach erosion, overwash, and inlet

Quantifying the Impact of Iowa's Flood‐Mitigation Reservoirs on Sediment and Nutrient Loss
ABSTRACT Flood‐mitigation reservoirs have long been known to impact pollutant transport by retaining or removing incoming sediment and nutrients. However, historical reductions in these systems have rarely been well quantified. In this study, we used water quality data to estimate inputs and outputs of total suspended solids (TSS), two phosphorus (P ...
