Rethinking Global Soil Degradation: Drivers, Impacts, and Solutions

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The increasing threat of soil degradation presents significant challenges to soil health, especially within agroecosystems that are vital for food security, climate regulation, and economic stability. This growing concern arises from intricate interactions between land use practices and climatic conditions, which, if not addressed, could ...

A Novel Method for Reservoir Outflow Simulation Based on Spearman Rank Correlation Between Satellite‐Derived Water Elevations and Model‐Simulated Reservoir Storage

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Accurate simulation of reservoir outflow is essential for integrated water resource management. However, the limited availability of operational data for reservoirs often hinder the accuracy of outflow simulations. Satellite remote sensing, combined with water balance approaches, provides an effective solution for calculating outflows. However,

Nonlinear shear behavior of rock joints using a linearized implementation of the Barton–Bandis model

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017
Experiments on rock joint behaviors have shown that joint surface roughness is mobilized under shearing, inducing dilation and resulting in nonlinear joint shear strength and shear stress vs. shear displacement behaviors.
