Dam Management in the Era of Climate Change
ABSTRACT Climate change has a dramatic impact, particularly by concentrating rainfall into a few short periods, interspersed with long dry spells. In this context, the role of dams is crucial. We consider the optimal control of a dam, where the water level must neither exceed a designated safety threshold nor fall below a minimum level to ensure ...

Kogia Records in Brazilian Equatorial and Southwestern Atlantic Oceans
ABSTRACT The pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (Kogia sima) sperm whales are cryptic cetaceans characterized by inconspicuous surfacing behavior, small group sizes, and deep‐diving habits, making visual detection particularly challenging. Here, we present the first broad‐scale passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) assessment of Kogia spp.

Fluid Injection Triggers Large‐Scale Slow‐Slip Activation of the Rocky Mountain Fold and Thrust Belt
Abstract Using interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) we show that hydraulic fracturing treatments near the subsurface deformation limit of the Rocky Mountain Fold and Thrust Belt produced 12 intraplate, aseismic, slow‐slip events with magnitudes Mw ${M}_{w}$ 4.71–5.06 at 1,640–2,410 m depths.

Coupled Dynamics Between Networks and Fields in Physical Space: A Theoretical Perspective
Networks embedded in physical space often communicate through dynamical fields that both mediate and respond to collective behavior. A unified theoretical perspective is presented for these network‐field systems, linking established mathematical frameworks and revealing how feedback between discrete interactions and continuous spatial processes can ...

ABSTRACT This discussion focuses on unique two aspects of the study: The use of the generalized pareto distribution to extrapolate below a threshold and the tension that exists between extreme value methods and the desire to provide an upper bound.

ABSTRACT Murphy et al. present a methodology to provide updated and improved estimates of the upper tail of induced earthquake magnitude distributions for the Groningen gas field, the Netherlands. In particular, they propose regression models to characterize the evolving nature of both the magnitude of completion (which corresponds to the threshold in ...

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

ABSTRACT We perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in the Shillong Plateau by clubbing the up‐to‐date earthquake data and seismotectonic properties of the study area. Twenty‐one areal seismic sources are delineated based on the updated earthquake catalog, tectonic, and fault plane solutions.
