Abstract Sustainable rice cultivation is vital to meet global food demands, particularly in regions relying on groundwater for irrigation. Over‐pumping, however, can cause significant ground subsidence, threatening both infrastructure and agricultural sustainability.

Two orders of wall‐to‐wall geographic data
Short Abstract The use of the term ‘wall‐to‐wall’ to describe geographically extensive data without any singular definition in the remote sensing and geographically related analysis. This work presents an assessment of the application of the term in the scientific literature. Abstract From personal observations of recent published works, the term “wall‐

We provide a geomorphological analysis of Cordillera Vilcanota and use morphostratigraphic principles to reconstruct palaeo icefield extent and palaeoglacier readvances, likely during the Antarctic Cold Reversal and Younger Dryas. We find evidence of temperate and polythermal ice margins, with limited glaciofluvial landform generation.

InSAR Ground Deformation and Pumping Energy Consumption Reveal Urban Water Security
Abstract Water resource assessments are critical for ensuring water security (WS), particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions with increasing water demand and limited water monitoring capabilities. Earth observations and indirect indicators of surface and groundwater changes are valuable tools for developing such assessments.

Abstract Several missions to Venus have recently been selected for launch, opening a new era for the exploration of the planet. A key question these missions seek to address is whether Venus is geologically active today. Detecting active volcanism on Venus would contribute to a better understanding of volcanic and atmospheric processes on Earth.

Twenty‐Five Years of Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazard Assessment
Abstract Fault displacement hazard poses significant risks to critical infrastructure such as buildings, roads, and pipelines. While some structures can tolerate a certain degree of surface displacement, others, such as buildings, are far more vulnerable. Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazard Assessment (PFDHA) quantifies the probability of exceeding

Assessing Mountain Soil Water Storage and Release in a Colombian Páramo With APSIS‐InSAR Data
InSAR detects seasonal soil swelling across a páramo ridge. Ridges swell during the wet season and lower valleys swell in the dry season. Findings indicate flow in the wet season is rapid from ridges through steep slopes and out of the catchment, whereas in the dry season lower valley sediments swell from a cumulative slower flow.

Abstract Population growth, climate change, and a lack of infrastructure have contributed to an increase in water demand and groundwater exploitation in urban and rural Afghanistan, resulting in significant ground subsidence. Based on a 7‐year‐long Sentinel‐1 radar‐interferometric time‐series (2015–2022), we assess country‐wide subsidence rates.
