Abstract This study examined the spatiotemporal variability in geotechnical properties of beach cusp sediments on a sandy beach and tested if such variability can be used for cusp monitoring from satellite imagery. Specifically, sediment properties (including moisture content (w), relative density (Dr), sediment strength (QSBC) and friction angle (ϕ ...

In‐Lake GHG Production Constrained by Lake DOM Mass Balance in a Boreal Catchment
Abstract The processing of organic carbon in surface waters represents a critical component of the carbon (C) cycle in boreal landscapes and is closely linked to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). Utilizing a unique data set with dense monitoring of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), dissolved CO2, and CH4 at

How Volume Increases the Mobility of Geophysical Granular Flow: A Unified Rheological Perspective
Abstract Geophysical granular flows, involving rapidly flowing granular materials, can exhibit volume‐enhanced mobility. Lacking a mechanistic understanding of such size effects limits the applications of lab‐scale findings to natural events. Using discrete element method simulations, we find that increasing granular system size suppresses energy ...

Hydraulic or Seepage Erosion: What Drives Bank Collapse in Tidal Environments?
Abstract The collapse of channel banks in tidal environments has typically been interpreted using fluvial concepts that prioritize hydraulic (flow‐driven) erosion. Yet daily tidal fluctuations trap pore water in channel banks, potentially producing sustained seepage flows capable of triggering collapse even without strong currents.

Hydraulic Control of the Foreshocks and Mainshock of the 2017 Valparaíso, Chile, Earthquake
Abstract Slow‐slip events (SSE) are a key mode of aseismic deformation and can enhance fault permeability through fracturing, enabling fluid migration from the overpressured oceanic crust to the plate interface. Whether the resulting poroelastic stress changes promote seismicity and larger megathrust events, however, remains unclear.

Electrical Conductivities of Conductors, Semiconductors, and Their Mixtures at Elevated Temperatures
This article presents a comprehensive review of temperature‐dependent electrical conductivity data for multiple material classes at elevated temperatures, highlighting a persistent conductivity gap between metals and semiconductors in the range of 102$\left(10\right)^{2}$– 107$\left(10\right)^{7}$ S/m. Metal–ceramic irregular metamaterials are proposed

Abstract Swarms are microearthquake clusters governed by aseismic deformation, fluid migration, and stress changes, but the underlying mechanisms for their recurrence remain elusive. In 2008, abundant swarms were observed on the westernmost Gofar transform fault.

Abstract Distributed acoustic Sensing (DAS) data collected along a 30 km length of telecommunications fiber crossing the Alpine Fault near Haast enable analysis of interactions between fluvioglacial and seismotectonic processes. Here we use DAS recordings of 25 earthquakes to probe near‐surface structure beneath the Haast river valley.
