The Earth's Greatest Porous Media
Abstract How deeply does modern meteoric water circulate into the continental crust? How deep is the Earth's Critical Zone (CZ), the top layer of the continental lithosphere that co‐evolves with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, extending from vegetation canopy down to fresh bedrock and the base of active groundwater circulation?

Abstract Spatial heterogeneity, manifested as strong variability in hydraulic conductivity (K) within geological formations, exerts a fundamental control on groundwater flow and solute transport. Because K can vary over multiple orders of magnitude in complex three‐dimensional patterns, predicting contaminant plume migration remains a long‐standing ...

A Robust AHP–GIS Based Flood Susceptibility Mapping Using Stochastic Hill‐Climbing Algorithm
ABSTRACT Flooding is one of the most frequent and devastating natural hazards affecting urban areas globally, leading to considerable social, economic, and environmental impacts. In the present study, a novel framework for flood susceptibility mapping is proposed using the stochastic Hill‐Climbing (SHC) method in the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP ...

Abstract Understanding fault geometry and mechanics is key to interpreting the seismotectonic setting of a region. We analyze data from a 1‐year dense seismic array deployment in Southern Italy to infer focal mechanisms and stress field from low‐magnitude earthquakes using machine‐learning techniques.

La «Storia di Manfredi» di August Karst. Dalla critica storica sincrona alla lettura contemporanea
Il quadro complessivo del saggio di August Karst, che è possibile trarre dai giudizi di storici coevi quali Benedetto Croce, Karl Hampe e Thomas Frederick Tout, offre una visione chiara delle valenze e di molte discrepanze nell’inquadramento della ...

Accelerated Atmospheric Drying in Neighboring Rural Areas Across China Associated With Urban Warming
Abstract Neighboring rural areas (i.e., rural zones surrounding cities) experience strong urban–rural interactions and provide critical ecosystem services, yet their responses to atmospheric drying remain poorly understood. Here, we quantify urban impacts on vapor pressure deficit (VPD) in neighboring rural areas across China by comparing station ...
