Abstract As global climate change intensifies, hurricane‐induced storm surges are becoming more frequent and severe. While Global Navigation Satellite System‐Interferometric Reflectometry (GNSS‐IR) is widely used to monitor sea level variations, its capability to detect rapid and extreme events remains limited.

Ocean dynamics of outer solar system satellites
Ocean worlds are prevalent in the solar system. Focusing on Enceladus, Titan, Europa, and Ganymede, I use rotating convection theory and numerical simulations to predict ocean currents and the potential for ice-ocean coupling.

3-D lithospheric structure and regional/residual Bouguer anomalies in the Arabia-Eurasia collision (Iran) [PDF]
The aim of this work is to propose a first-order estimate of the crustal and lithospheric mantle geometry of the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone and to separate the measured Bouguer anomaly into its regional and local components.

Asymmetric Crater Relaxation on an Ice‐Rich Ceres Driven by Insolation
Abstract Ceres has a high ice content within its crust and is the closest dwarf planet to the sun. The resultant high insolation levels at Ceres' surface (in comparison to the outer solar system) leads to high variations in surface temperature, which is dependent on both latitude and orientation of the slope (i.e., equatorward‐ or poleward‐facing).

Managing Sensitive Ecosystems: Honsinger v. State and the Need for Flexibility in the Rules of Real Property [PDF]
The world’s increased energy storage demand, as well as the environmental concerns related to the combustion of fossil fuels, has triggered a transition to intermittent renewable energy sources as well as to electrical and hybrid vehicles.

Analysis of satellite gravity and bathymetry data over Ninety-East Ridge: Variation in the compensation mechanism and implication for emplacement process [PDF]
International audienceWe investigate the mode of compensation, emplacement history and deep density structure of the Ninety-East Ridge (Indian Ocean) using spectral analyses and forward modeling of satellite gravity and bathymetry data.

Describing the Global Gravity Field of Mars With Lithospheric Flexure and Deep Mantle Flow
Abstract The volcanic complex Tharsis Region on Mars is known for its numerous volcanoes on top of the crust, elevated topography (doming), and a long‐wavelength gravity anomaly correlated with the region. Flexural modeling of the lithosphere has commonly been used to understand the relationship between observed topography, crustal structure, and ...

During recent years the question of the conditions of stress and strain in the earth's crust has received a very considerable amount of attention. Perhaps one of the most fruitful lines of inquiry has been that which has aimed at determining the connexion between the varying densities of the crustal rocks and the different degrees of relief of the ...

Temporal Changes in Europa's Ice Shell Thickness: Insights From Models of Convection
Abstract Europa is characterized by a thin ice Ih shell overlying a subsurface ocean and a large solid core. Estimates of the outer ice shell's thickness range from a few kilometers to several tens of kilometers, with strong implications for Europa's thermal and geological history.

Glacial isostasy and plate motion [PDF]
Abstract The influence of glacial-isostatic adjustment (GIA) on the motion of tectonic plates is usually neglected. Employing a recently developed numerical approach, we examine the effect of glacial loading on the motion of the Earth’s tectonic plates where we consider an elastic lithosphere of laterally variable strength and the plates losely ...
