Modeled Subsidence of Permafrost Terrain 2025–2050: North‐Central Alaska
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 692-712, October/December 2026.ABSTRACT A large fraction of the Alaska terrain is underlain by regolith that contains excess ice (ice that in volume exceeds the natural pore space). Possible loss of excess ice would lead to ground subsidence, which in turn would disturb and destabilize the ground surface.

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 645-667, October/December 2026.ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

Intelligent identification of rock mass discontinuities based on the MK‐Means algorithm
River, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 419-431, August 2026.Abstract Rock mass discontinuities govern the mechanical properties and engineering stability of rock masses. Conventional clustering algorithms typically require manual specification of the number of clusters or initial parameters, rendering the results sensitive to empirical judgment and initial conditions.

The Magic Project: large scale geohazard mapping of the Italian continental margins
, 2009 The Italian continental margins display intense tectonic activity reflecting their recent origin and the complex geodynamic setting. In addition to tectonic activity, sea level and supply fluctuation (related to Quaternary climate changes) greatly ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 5, October 2026.Abstract Classical satellite altimetry has limited sensitivity to seafloor topography at wavelengths shorter than about 150 km, leaving short‐wavelength structure poorly constrained away from ship tracks. The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission improves gravity recovery at these scales.

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract Groundwater–surface water exchange is a key hydrological process that governs river water quality and aquatic ecosystems. However, the quantification of such exchange remains uncertain, especially within river island aquifers where exchange processes are highly heterogeneous.
