Integrating physical and statistical models for regional rainfall‐induced landslide hazard assessment

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 7, July 2026.
We present an event‐based FS–probability mapping to link physically based slope stability analysis with statistical probability prediction. Results indicate a mappable relationship between factor of safety and landslide probability, and the hybrid model shows comparable discriminative performance across two extreme‐rainfall events with contrasting ...

Evaluating Post‐Fire Salvage Logging Erosion Mitigation Treatments in the California Sierra Nevada, USA

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.
Multiple pairs of mitigation treatments including logging slash, subsoiling, traffic passes and slope were evaluated over time using a rill simulation experiment to determine which treatments were effective at reducing runoff and sediment delivery from logged hillslopes.

Improving the Reliability of Groundwater Recharge Estimates by Modelling Stable Water Isotope Transport in Soils

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 7, July 2026.
Three 1‐D unsaturated zone models (HYDRUS‐1D with isotope fractionation) were calibrated with volumetric water content (θ) alone versus θ and δ18O δ2H from soil water. Adding isotopes constrains the parameter spaces and reproduces isotope profiles despite θ extremes, and reveals heterogeneous recharge in semi‐arid Tamil Nadu, South India.

Deglaciation of the Burren glacio‐karst, western Ireland, during Termination 1: Implications for North Atlantic climate and karstification

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 702-715, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...

Experimental Investigation of Moisture Movement During Freeze–Thaw Cycles and Its Effect on Physical Rock Weathering in Low‐Porosity Alpine Limestone

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 354-371, July/September 2026.
ABSTRACT The progressive weakening of alpine rockwalls through subcritical cracking, driven by repeated low‐magnitude stress processes, plays a key role in alpine rock weathering. Laboratory studies using acoustic emission (AE) monitoring have shown that thermal stresses from freeze–thaw cycling induce crack propagation, with recent work highlighting ...

Spatial Variability of Permafrost and Active Layer Thickness in a Forested Hillslope of the Taiga Shield

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 306-322, July/September 2026.
ABSTRACT Under continued climate warming, understanding present‐day permafrost distribution and the controls on ground thaw are critical for predicting permafrost thaw trajectories and associated implications. This study presents a high‐resolution investigation of permafrost extent and active layer thickness (ALT) across a coniferous forested hillslope

Understanding cation exchange capacity through the landscape lens of the Busoga Catena, Uganda

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract This study identifies the parent material (PM) and examines cation exchange capacity (CEC) across the Busoga catena. In 2022 and 2023, we described 32 pedons and collected 147 samples. Laboratory analyses were particle size analysis, organic carbon (OC) content, pH, and CEC.

Geodetic Constraints on Fault Kinematics and Dynamics of 2021 Maduo Earthquake: Implications for Fault Friction

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Postseismic afterslip has been inferred to occur on fault barriers surrounding coseismic asperities, which can be explained by velocity‐strengthening friction in barriers and velocity‐weakening friction in asperities. However, afterslip also exhibits spatial overlap with coseismic slip for some events.

Insights on Lightning‐Induced Remanent Magnetization From High‐Current Impulse Experiments

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Lightning strikes generate intense transient magnetic fields capable of inducing strong and complex remanent magnetizations in rocks, potentially overprinting their original paleomagnetic record. To investigate the mechanisms and outcomes of lightning‐induced remanent magnetization, we conducted controlled high‐current impulse experiments on ...
