Short-term forecast of local tsunamis based on data containing seismic noise from deep-ocean stations closest to the sources [PDF]

Геосистемы переходных зон, 2020
Reliable short-term tsunami forecast on the Kuril Islands when earthquakes occur in the Kuril-Kamchatka Trench is the most difficult. Forecasting by the traditional magnitude method often leads to false tsunami alarms. Based on the examples of the events

Age specific survival rates of Steller sea lions at rookeries with divergent population trends in the Russian Far East. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
After a dramatic population decline, Steller sea lions have begun to recover throughout most of their range. However, Steller sea lions in the Western Aleutians and Commander Islands are continuing to decline.

Formation process of the gravel‐dominated deposit from the 2011 Tohoku‐oki tsunami in Ofunato, northeastern Japan, inferred by integrating sedimentology and tsunami modelling

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1378-1402, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Tsunami deposits serve as geological records of past events and are essential for understanding the occurrence and dynamics of tsunamis. However, conventional research has largely focused on sandy and boulder deposits, leaving gravel‐dominated tsunami deposits comparatively underexplored; furthermore, their characteristics and formation ...

Linking Interseismic Locking to Coseismic Rupture: The 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract We investigate interseismic locking on the Kamchatka megathrust, source of the 2025 Mw 8.8 earthquake, using a data‐driven probabilistic framework. Horizontal GNSS velocities constrain a boundary element model on a triangulated megathrust geometry, while an algorithmic sampling strategy estimates the locking probability for fault elements ...

Comparative Analysis of Genomic Differentiation and Outcomes of Contact Between Taxa Within a Species Complex of North Temperate Fishes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We use comparative genomic comparisons between species and subspecies in a north temperate fish to examine the relationship between inferred divergence time and extent of reproductive isolation. We found that similar divergence times were associated with dramatically distinct levels of reproductive isolation.

New Terrestrial Native Iron Discovered on Earth's Surface

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Native iron is a major common mineral in lunar samples and meteorites but rarely occurs on Earth's surface, as its stability requires highly reducing conditions with very low oxygen fugacity. To date, native iron has mainly been found in basalts, ophiolites, and deep hydrothermal systems.
