Maritime Safety Rules as an Obstacle for Privately Organized Search and Rescue Operations at Sea

, 2020
Recent changes in German maritime safety rules hamper the ability of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to conduct search and rescue (SAR) operations in the Mediterranean because NGOs’ vessels are no longer exempt from certain safety standards and ...

Mathematical Modeling of Pulse‐Seeded Metapopulation Dynamics for Andes Hantavirus Border Dispersal

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
A pulse‐seeded metapopulation SEIR model for Andes hantavirus maritime dispersal shows that heterogeneous quarantine compliance determines secondary outbreak risk. The weakest‐compliance country governs global containment, while uniform compliance above ∼65%$$ \sim 65\% $$ reduces the global reproduction number below unity.

Toward an Improved Understanding of the Antarctic Coastal Zone and Its Contribution to Future Global Sea Level

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Understanding the coastal zone of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), where it interacts with the Southern Ocean and warmer air masses, is crucial for predicting Antarctica's influence on the global climate and sea level. This region has multiple tipping mechanisms that could trigger large, rapid, and potentially irreversible changes in the AIS ...
