Hatching Success of Olive Ridley Sea Turtles in Semi‐Natural Nests: A Pilot Assessment of Microclimate Conditions at Batu Hiu Beach

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Our study investigates the environmental and astronomical drivers of olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) hatching success at Batu Hiu Beach, Indonesia. We demonstrate that air temperature is the dominant predictor of hatching outcomes, while Earth–Moon distance exerts an additional, significant influence independent of humidity and tidal effects ...

A new method to calibrate ionospheric pulse dispersion for UHE cosmic ray and neutrino detection using the Lunar Cherenkov technique

, 2011
UHE particle detection using the lunar Cherenkov technique aims to detect nanosecond pulses of Cherenkov emission which are produced during UHE cosmic ray and neutrino interactions in the Moon's regolith.

Investigation on the Coherent Component of SHARAD Surface Echo and Surface Roughness: Scaling Behavior and Influence of Hurst Exponent

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The radar surface echo can be separated into coherent and incoherent components by statistical approaches, and the coherent component can be described by a backscattering model related to the RMS height. According to backscattering models for fractal surfaces, the coherent power in decibels decreases with RMS height on a scale independent of ...

Calculations of the moon's heat history at different concentrations of radioactive elements taking account of the material differentiation with melting [PDF]

A mathematical procedure for analyzing the heat conductivity of the lunar surface is discussed. The solution is based on homogeneous and laminated moon models and considers the effects of radioactive elements conveyed to the lunar surface by melting. The

Earth-like Habitats in Planetary Systems

, 2014
Understanding the concept of habitability is related to an evolutionary knowledge of the particular planet-in-question. Additional indications so-called "systemic aspects" of the planetary system as a whole governs a particular planet's claim on ...

Novel Insights on Ocean Internal Waves: Quantitative Surface Manifestations and Upper Ocean Layer Displacements From the Surface Water Ocean Topography Mission (SWOT) Measurements

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission provides unprecedented high‐resolution simultaneous observations of both sea surface height anomalies and sea surface roughness. Specifically, it enables more precise analysis of strong internal waves. Off the Amazon Shelf, in the Indonesian Seas, and near the Mascarene Ridge, internal wave

Orbital Elements of Comet C/1490 Y1 and the Quadrantid shower

, 2009
The Quadrantid shower, one of the most intense showers, has been observed at the beginning of January each year. However, the origin of the meteors is still unknown.
