Characterizing Drivers of Asia's Black Elephant Disaster Risks
Earth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Asia has the fastest growing population and economy, but it is also the most disaster‐prone region in the world. Resilience to disaster impacts from natural hazards will be key to the long‐term sustainability of this rapidly growing region. The first step to building resilience is to identify the key threats that this region faces. We describe

Lava World: Exoplanet Surfaces [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Volume 516,
Issue 3, November 2022, Pages 4569, 2022 The recent first measurements of the reflection of the surface of a lava world provides an unprecedented opportunity to investigate different stages of rocky planet evolution. The spectral features of the surfaces of rocky lava world exoplanets give insights into their evolution, mantle composition and inner workings.

Craton Destruction Induced by Drastic Drops in Lithospheric Mantle Viscosity
Earth and Space Science, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract The disruption of the mantle roots of cratons is common after cratonization. Craton destruction, which is characterized by severe lithospheric thinning, extensive thrust and extensional deformation, basin filling, and intense thermal activities, is relatively rare and is generally attributed to intensely reduced viscosity contrasts between the

Applied Vegetation Science, Volume 25, Issue 4, October/December 2022., 2022 We estimated the future distribution of alpine and subalpine vegetation types under climate change in the Taisetsu Mountains, Daisetsuzan National Park, Hokkaido (northern Japan). Under the RCP2.6 scenario, habitats suitable for snowbeds and alpine heathland/fellfield drastically decreased overall.

The Eruption of Submarine Rhyolite Lavas and Domes in the Deep Ocean – Havre 2012, Kermadec Arc
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2018 Silicic effusive eruptions in deep submarine environments have not yet been directly observed and very few modern submarine silicic lavas and domes have been described.

Numerical simulation of lava flows based on depth-averaged equations [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, Vol. 32, L05304, 2005, 2005 Risks and damages associated with lava flows propagation (for instance the most recent Etna eruptions) require a quantitative description of this phenomenon and a reliable forecasting of lava flow paths. Due to the high complexity of these processes, numerical solution of the complete conservation equations for real lava flows is often practically ...

Building Mistrust: ‘Minha Casa Minha Vida’ and its Political Effects in Rio de Janeiro
Bulletin of Latin American Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, Page 724-738, November 2022., 2022 Considering the recent decrease in Rio de Janeiro working‐class voters' support for the Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT, Workers' Party), this article investigates a largely unexplored factor behind this shift: the influence of the federal housing programme Minha Casa Minha Vida (MCMV, My House, My Life), designed by the PT.
