Reshaping of San Jose Island, TX, USA, by Unconfined Washover and Channelized Washout During Hurricane Harvey

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Hurricane Harvey (2017) produced 31 net‐erosional washout channels on San Jose Island, Texas, USA, where offshore‐directed flows cut through two dune ridges and the beach. Channel growth was affected by natural, pre‐existing aeolian topography, rather than prior washover channels or infrastructure. We investigate how offshore directed outwash,

Probabilistic assessment of structural safety of gravity-dams

open access: yes, 2009
Dams are hydraulic structures of civil engineering inducing important technological risks. The regulation in France relating to the safety of the hydraulic structures is recently evolved (decree of December 11, 2007) and henceforth envisages for the large dams the realization of studies of dangers in which the probabilistic methods of evaluation of ...

Fine‐Scale Structure and Kinematics of an Active Submarine Strike‐Slip Fault From Micro‐Bathymetric Mapping and Analog Modeling: The North Alfeo Fault Offshore Catania (Eastern Sicily)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Southern Italy and eastern Sicily have been the site of several destructive historical earthquakes. Here at the junction between the western edge of the Calabrian subduction zone and the Malta Escarpment several strike‐slip faults have been mapped, which may be the surface expression of the lateral slab tear fault and are candidate sources for

Modeling Study on Enhancing Overall Sediment Transport Efficiency in a Reservoir‐River Coupled System of the Middle and Lower Yellow River

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Graphical Abstract Abstract Effective sediment management in reservoir–river coupled systems remains a global challenge due to the conflicting objectives of sediment evacuation from reservoirs and deposition reduction in downstream reaches. This study proposed a physics‐based modeling framework oriented to a reservoir–river coupled system, which ...

Simulating N2O Emissions From Inland Waters: Model Development and Site‐Level Study

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Inland waters are significant sources of atmospheric nitrous oxide (N2O), and their emissions are expected to rise rapidly due to human activities. However, current estimates remain highly uncertain, partly because sparse field measurements and existing models fail to capture fine‐scale variations in N2O emissions, especially due to the ...
