Evaluating the Potential of ChatGPT to Support Climate Risk and Adaptation Assessment
Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2025.Scaling up adaptation is essential for addressing climate risks, but there are no globally applicable, sector‐based inventories of adaptation options. Assistive technologies like ChatGPT can help with the rapid scoping of climate risks, adaptation actions, costs and benefits and flag potential maladaptation. Adaptation measures identified for national (

Behavior of Geotextile Reinforced Sand on Weak Subgrade
Journal of King Saud University: Engineering Sciences, 2000 The use of nonwoven geotextiles in unpaved roads provides at least two basic contributions, namely separation and reinforcement functions, therefore reducing rutting and maintenance cost and greatly improves the overall performance of reinforced unpaved ...

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 15, December 2025.Anthropogenic, climatic, and tectonic forces have altered many river systems, yet predicting subsequent channel morphology adjustments remains a formidable challenge. Using sand‐bed flume data, this study evaluates the applicability of the rate law in describing channel‐bed elevation adjustments from aggradation to equilibrium.
