Measurement and modeling of diffuse ultraviolet radiation: A review

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Solar UV radiation consists of direct and diffuse UV components. The diffuse component contributes to the exposure received by humans and to the risk of skin cancer and sun‐related eye disorders. This review aims to determine future research directions for the measurement and modeling of diffuse solar UV radiation.

Impact of moisture gradients on ultrasonic evaluation of concrete and mortar blocks subjected to thermal exposures

open access: yese-Journal of Nondestructive Testing
Non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of concrete has significantly advanced, providing valuable insights into material properties. While the sensitivities of various NDE methods conducted in concrete to damages and environmental conditions are well ...

Regional‐to‐Global Tectonic and Trench‐Morphology Effects of Oceanic Plateau Subduction

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
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 ...

Scour‐Conditioned Seismic Fragility Analysis of Monopile‐Supported Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 947-967, 10 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Monopile‐supported offshore wind turbines (MS‐OWTs) are increasingly deployed in seismic coastal regions, where they face compound risks from earthquake loading and seabed scour. While past studies have addressed these hazards separately, seismic fragility under evolving scour conditions remains insufficiently understood. This study introduces

Tomography S Velocity Structure between Washington’s Earthquake C022801l and Observational Station Tuc through Seismogram Analysis

open access: yesMakara Seri Sains, 2005
In this research the S speed structure is investigated by seismogram analysis of Washington's earthquake, C022801L using data of TUC station, Tucson, Arizona, U.S.A. The seismogram comparison between the observed and the synthetic seismogram is conducted

Application of High‐Order Direct Flux Reconstruction and Stiffness‐Resilient Time Integration to Simulations of Idealized Atmospheric Flows

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 98, Issue 4, Page 448-468, April 2026.
The proposed work implements a direct flux reconstruction method for spatial discretization and a stiffness‐resilient exponential time integration method for temporal discretization on the cube‐sphere grid. A space‐time tensor formalism is employed to provide a general representation in any curvilinear coordinate system. This combination enables highly

Polarization Changes in Lunar Simulant Soil: The Role of Incident, Reflection, and Off‐Plane Angles

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Observing the polarization of the lunar regolith is essential for obtaining detailed information about the composition and characteristics of lunar soil. Observations conducted via lunar orbiters facilitate polarization measurements over wide areas; however, achieving very high‐resolution imaging requires either a large optical system or a ...

Pressure Dependence of Liquid Iron Viscosity From Machine‐Learning Molecular Dynamics

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract We have developed a machine‐learning potential that accurately models the behavior of iron under the conditions of Earth's core. By performing numerous nanosecond scale equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, the viscosities of liquid iron for the whole outer core conditions are obtained with much less uncertainty.

Crustal Magma Storage and Plumbing System Beneath the Tianchi and Wangtian'e Volcanoes, Changbaishan Intraplate Volcanic Field, China and North Korea

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The Changbaishan volcanic field, which includes the Tianchi and Wangtian'e volcanoes in China and the Namphothe volcano in North Korea, is one of the most complex and hazardous volcanic regions on Earth due to its tectonic setting and explosive Holocene activity.

Global Primary and Secondary Microseism Multi‐Decade Geographic Variation, Secular Intensification, and Period Lengthening

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Earth's long period background seismic wavefield is dominated by two distinct processes that couple ocean wave energy to a global microseism wavefield. We assess global microseism intensity in the secondary (4–10 s) and primary (14–20 s) bands, and across eight 2 s‐wide period bands between 4 and 20 s.
