Aerial and Space‐Borne Seismology on Venus: Viability and Design Implications for Future Missions
Abstract Venus' evolution remains a mystery because of the lack of in situ geophysical data to constrain its interior structure. Recently‐selected planetary missions VERITAS (NASA), DAVINCI+ (NASA), and EnVision (ESA) will investigate the planet's interior, surface, and atmospheric chemistry.

Radar altimetry has been used to characterize land surfaces. However, the nadir configuration of the radar altimeter sensor and its coarse spatial resolution were limiting factor.

Abstract Sea surface height (SSH) reflects a superposition of balanced motions (BM) and unbalanced motions (UBM), which play distinct roles in ocean dynamics and energetics. The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite provides two‐dimensional SSH maps at spatial resolutions where BM and UBM coexist, but its 21‐day repeat cycle precludes ...

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 ...

Activities of the Summer Party of the 36th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition in 1994-1995
The 36th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-36) consisted of 40 wintering members and 16 summer members with one atmospheric chemist from Germany. The icebreaker SHIRASE left Tokyo on November 14,1994,and arrived at Syowa Station on December 24

Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.

Buoy Observations of Ocean Swell Propagation Across the Pacific Ocean
Abstract A network of more than 300 drifting wave buoys is used to study the propagation of ocean swell across the Pacific Ocean. Swell events are identified at buoys in the Equatorial region and then tracked along Great Circle propagation paths both forward and backward in time.

RRS "Charles Darwin" Cruise CD168, 02 Feb - 16 Feb 2005. Submarine landslides around the Cape Verde Islands [PDF]
Catastrophic large-scale landslides are a fundamental process in the formation of many oceanic islands. The main aim of cruise CD168 was to carry out a reconnaissance survey of the influence of landsliding on the Cape Verde islands, in the eastern ...
