Restoring delta resilience: phased socio‐ecological model for coastal recovery in Mediterranean Turkey

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal delta regions experiencing long‐term ecological degradation and sudden natural disasters require restoration approaches that are adaptive, process‐based, and context‐specific. The Samandağ coastline in southern Turkey, part of the Mediterranean Asi River Delta, has faced hydrological disruption, habitat fragmentation, and ...

Experimental Study on Mechanism of Wave-Induced Liquefaction of Sand-Clay Seabed

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
In this study, a series of laboratory experiments for the response of wave induced clay-sand seabed were carried out to clarify the mechanism of liquefaction of clayey seabed. The experiments were conducted in an 80 m long wave flume.

Cyclic behavior of late quaternary alluvial soil along Indo-Gangetic Plain: Northern India

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geo-Engineering, 2022
The A.D. 1803 and 1934 Bihar-Nepal border earthquake affected Indo-Gangetic Plain with evidences of liquefaction in cities like Patna, Varanasi, Agra, and Delhi in historical past.

Effect of initial relative density on the post-liquefaction behaviour of sand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the behaviour of soils under cyclic/dynamic loading has been one of the challenging topics in geotechnical engineering. The response of liquefiable soils has been well studied however, the post liquefaction behaviour of sands needs better ...

Creating Flood Disasters: Environmental Memory and Adaptation in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesKōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
This article explores three questions. First, why does New Zealand have widespread flooding hazards? Second, why are these persistent, with little seemingly learned from the memory of earlier events? And third, beyond reiterating conventional solutions, what examples of alternatives or adaptations are being developed in different places?

Field Test and Numerical Research of Blast-Induced Liquefaction in Calcareous Sand

open access: yesShock and Vibration
In recent years, the engineering losses caused by liquefaction of calcareous sand foundations have gradually increased. However, there are relatively few studies on the mechanism of blast-induced liquefaction in saturated calcareous sand foundations.

Elastoplasticity Informed Kolmogorov–Arnold Networks Using Chebyshev Polynomials

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 8, Page 3331-3354, 10 June 2026.
ABSTRACT Multilayer perceptron (MLP) networks are predominantly used to develop data‐driven constitutive models for granular materials. They offer a compelling alternative to traditional physics‐based constitutive models in predicting non‐linear responses of these materials, for example, elastoplasticity, under various loading conditions. To attain the

Palaeolimnology of Lake Sapanca and identification of historic earthquake signals, Northern Anatolian Fault Zone (Turkey) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Lake Sapanca is located on a strand of the Northern Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ, Turkey), where a series of strong earthquakes (Ms >6.0) have occurred over the past hundred years. Identifying prehistoric earthquakes in and around Lake Sapanca is key to a
