Soil hydraulic properties, mineralogical alteration and pore formation in Regosols from southern Brazil [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo
Regosols (Neossolos) are soils with use limitations mainly related to effective depth, abundant presence of rock and saprolite fragments, and frequently high slope gradients; besides that, they represent a new agricultural frontier for grain production ...

Estimation of energy and material use of sintering-based construction for a lunar outpost - with the example of SinterHab module design [PDF]

, 2015
In this paper, we would revisit the usability of microwave for lunar regolith sintering through an in-depth experiment, and examine the minimum materials and energy required for sintering based on the SinterHab design.

The Efficient Delivery of Highly Siderophile Elements to the Core Creates a Mass Accretion Catastrophe for the Earth

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The excess abundance of highly siderophile elements (HSEs), as inferred for the terrestrial planets and the Moon, is thought to record a “late veneer” of impacts after the giant impact phase of planet formation. Estimates for total mass accretion during this period typically assume all HSEs delivered remain entrained in the mantle.

The charge state of electrostatically transported dust on regolith surfaces

Geophysical Research Letters, 2017
The charge state of dust particles on regolith surfaces exposed to ultraviolet radiation or plasma is investigated for understanding the role of electrostatic dust transport in the surface evolution of airless planetary bodies.

The Spectroscopic Impact of Sublimation Under Martian Surface Conditions: Implications for Sample Analysis by the Rosalind Franklin Rover and Biosignature Preservation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The 2028 ESA/NASA Rosalind Franklin Mission (RFM) will search for signs of past and present life in the shallow subsurface of Mars. It is crucial to understand how minerals and any biosignatures uncovered during these sampling activities might change and be identified under today's Martian conditions.

Evaluating Seismic Ambient Noise Techniques for Imaging Lava Tubes on the Moon

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Detecting and characterizing lava tubes is a key objective of upcoming lunar missions. While evidence for their presence exists, their precise dimensions and depths remain uncertain. This study evaluates the potential of seismic ambient noise methods, such as seismic interferometry, H/V spectral ratios, distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), and ...

CNXT‐Ti‐LT–Based Multi‐Scale Feature–Aware Susceptibility Mapping of Rainfall‐Induced Clustered Landslides in Southeast China

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract This study focuses on the clustered landslide event triggered by intense rainfall on 16 June 2024 in the Fujian–Guangdong–Jiangxi border region, aiming to develop an efficient deep learning model for high‐accuracy landslide susceptibility mapping. Based on the mapped landslide distribution and insights from field investigations, we constructed
