Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Gully erosion in India: Geo‐environmental controls and region‐specific characteristics
Spatial statistical analyses using a novel spatial database of India‧s gully erosion landforms revealed that India has six major gullying‐affected regions, three of which (EU, DU, and KCH) are dominated by gully systems (gully networks), with badlands (vast intensely gullied landscapes) being predominant in the other three regions (YB, GP, and RU ...

Exploring Resilience Among Survivors of Domestic and Intimate Partner Violence in Rural Canada
ABSTRACT In this article, we explore survivor strategies for safety and the development of resilience in the context of domestic and intimate partner violence (D/IPV) experienced in rural Canada. Through the thematic analysis of 24 qualitative interviews, this paper identifies several ways that survivors sought safety on individual, relational, and ...

Penetration of Warm Slabs Across the 660 km Boundary: The Potential Role of Hydrous Stishovite
Abstract We investigate the phase boundary of hydrous/anhydrous post‐spinel transition at conditions relevant to the 660 km boundary. For the hydrous ringwoodite decomposition, the slope is found to range from negative to positive values depending on the distribution of water between the final products, namely, bridgmanite, periclase (mostly anhydrous)

Regional‐to‐Global Tectonic and Trench‐Morphology Effects of Oceanic Plateau Subduction
Abstract Regional geodynamic modeling has shown that oceanic plateau subduction can modify the slab behavior. However, few studies have explored these interactions beyond 100 Myr in 3‐D spherical models. Using 3‐D spherical mantle convection models with self‐consistent plate‐like behavior, we investigate how the geometry and rheological properties of ...

Sulfur‐Bearing hcp Iron for Earth's Inner Core
Abstract Earth's iron core is believed to contain light impurities which should have been included during core formation. In order to place constraints on core composition, here we report the effect of sulfur on density of hexagonal close‐packed (hcp) iron which was not previously examined, using laser‐heated diamond anvil cells with in situ ...
