Modeling the Dissolution and Transport of Bubbles Emitted From Hydrocarbon Seeps Within the Hydrate Stability Zone of the Oceans

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Quantifying the vertical distribution of dissolved gases entering the oceans from natural seeps is important to understand biogeochemical cycling of these gases and to constrain their emissions to the atmosphere. The fate and transport of gas bubbles in seawater depend on their rise velocity and their rate of mass exchange with ambient water ...

Biogeographic Patterns of Iranian Lepidoptera: A Framework for Conservation

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim The contact zone of three zoogeographic realms, the Palearctic, Saharo‐Arabian and Oriental, is an evolutionary cradle of high species richness and endemism in Iran. In this study, we investigate statistically inferred bioregions of Lepidoptera in this region.

Lithospheric Thinning of the Northeastern Arabian Margin Revealed by Matrix‐Free Teleseismic Traveltime Tomography

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 3, 16 February 2025.
Abstract The obduction of the Tethys oceanic lithosphere is documented by the Semail ophiolite along the northeastern Arabian continental margin. Although the ophiolite is continuous and of similar age across the region, the eastern and western segments display distinct geological contrasts.

Capitalising On Criminality: A New Lusophone Route through Mozambique

Journal of Illicit Economies and Development
Mozambique is becoming recognised as an emerging hub for cocaine trafficking, with links stretching back to Brazil. The arrest of a well-known associate of Brazil’s Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) suggests the emergence of a new ‘lusophone route ...

Subduction Zone Obliquity Dictates Global Trench‐Parallel Inner Forearc Deformation

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Although subduction zones are characterized by convergence, the upper plates of subduction zones exhibit a diverse range of deformation styles that are often inconsistent with regional convergence. While several theories have been proposed to explain these variations, the underlying factors driving these differences are still not fully ...

Coeval Transverse and Axial Sediment Delivery to the Northern Hikurangi Trough During the Late Quaternary

Basin Research, Volume 37, Issue 1, January–February 2025.
Sediment delivery to the northern Hikurangi Trough has been driven by transverse gravity flows funnelled through the Māhia Canyon, alongside contributions from the overspill of the axial Hikurangi Channel. Large‐scale sediment waves and scours were formed by flows from the Māhia Canyon during MIS2 in response to substantially higher sediment fluxes ...

Tsunami hazard assessment along the coast of Pakistan based on the 1945 Makran tsunami

Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B2 (Coastal Engineering), 2009
Tsunami hazard assessment along the coast of Pakistan was carried out based on modeling of the 1945 Makran tsunami. We first modeled the 1945 Makran tsunami, which is the largest recorded tsunami in Pakistan, to examine its hydrodynamic feature. As a result, we found that the arrival time of maximum tsunami wave at Pakistan coast is prone to be late ...
