Bridging the divide : design’s role in improving multi-modal transport

, 2007
For a public transport user to experience an efficient journey, the transport system should demonstrate the network effect (Mees 2000; Nielsen et al. 2005); combining available modes in a network to achieve their best capacity.

Tourism facilitation as part of transport policy: Summary of international experiences. A joint ITF-OECD study [PDF]

, 2015
With over one billion international tourist arrivals per year, forecast to rise to 1.5 billion per year by 2020, transport is an essential component of the tourism system. Transport connects tourism generating regions (both domestic and international) to

Characterizing Incoming Cocos Plate Structure Outboard of the Guerrero Gap and Adjacent Segments Offshore Mexico: Implications for Along‐Strike Variations in Megathrust Slip Behavior

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Megathrust slip behavior in subduction zones can vary along‐strike, yet the mechanisms driving this variability remain uncertain. The Middle America trench offshore Mexico provides an ideal setting to investigate the structural controls on megathrust slip behavior.

Investigating Layered Cratonic Lithosphere in the Fennoscandian Shield

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Cold, thick, and chemically depleted lithosphere with high seismic velocity and low attenuation characterizes continental cratons. However, discrepancies between xenolith‐based thermal constraints and those inferred from surface‐wave seismic models, together with the widespread observation of mid‐lithosphere discontinuities, challenge the ...

Building the Andean Crust at ∼35°S: Arc Geochemistry Reveals Cretaceous Thinning and Rapid Neogene Thickening

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Quantification of the timing and mechanisms of crustal thickening in Cordilleran orogenic hinterlands remains challenging. We address this in the Andes using whole‐rock geochemistry and zircon petrochronology from a >70 Myr volcanic record in the Tinguiririca valley of Chile (∼35° ${}^{\circ}$S), which captures a pivotal transition from ...

Implications of Thermal Weakening and Magma Compressibility for Volcano Monitoring

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Magmatic intrusion and volcanic deformation are traditionally approximated with an inflating cavity in an elastic halfspace. Various analytical models predict surface displacement as a function of pressure or volume change, depth, and elastic crustal properties.

Improved Half‐Space Cooling Model Reconciles Bathymetry and Thermal Evolution of the Southwest Subbasin, South China Sea

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The bathymetry of marginal sea basins commonly deviates from depths calculated by classical lithospheric cooling models, yet the controlling mechanisms remain debated. Here, using 19 seismic profiles and corrected local heat‐flow data, we apply an improved half‐space cooling model within a two‐stage reconstruction to reassess thermal ...

Brine Entrainment During Ice Shell Growth on Icy Worlds

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The role of ocean composition in governing ice shell growth and ocean longevity on icy satellites remains poorly constrained. To address this, we develop a thermomechanical model of small to mid‐sized icy worlds that simulates ice shell growth from a saline ocean, explicitly quantifying brine entrainment through a parameterization of reactive ...

Inferring Io's Internal Properties by Combining Gravity Measurements and Volcanic Activity

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract With its extreme geological activity, Io represents an archetype for tidally heated exoplanets/moons and provides insight into early stages of terrestrial planet evolution. Decades of ground‐based observations and multiple space missions have refined our understanding of Io, yet it remains debated where inside Io the tidal heating takes place.

Evaluating Fragmentation Detection in Block Caves Using Synthetic Muon Tomography

Geophysical Prospecting, Volume 74, Issue 7, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Muon tomography is a geophysical imaging technique with growing application across a range of geological and industrial settings. By observing the arrival of naturally occurring muons, it is possible to reconstruct subsurface density distributions in three dimensions.
