A Fluvio‐Lacustrine Environment Preserved in the Jezero Crater Inlet Channel, Neretva Vallis, Mars
Abstract Martian fluvial valleys provide evidence for the surface flow of liquid water, making them a key target for rover‐based investigations of ancient habitability. The Mars 2020 Perseverance rover spent ∼85 sols exploring the Bright Angel formation, exposed across the floor of Neretva Vallis: the western inlet channel of Jezero crater.

Sheet-pile enclosures are often employed as liquefaction countermeasures for river levees in Japan. However, the stiffness of the sheet piles alone is often insufficient to maintain levees on liquefied foundation soil high enough to prevent overflooding.

Processes of MISS-formation in a modern siliciclastic tidal flat, Patagonia (Argentina) [PDF]
The study focus on the description of several MISS as erosional pockets and remnants, flipped-over edges, and large microbial deformation structures as roll-ups, folds and gas domes, in the context of sediment composition, hydraulics, and geomorphology ...

Abstract Southwestern Pennsylvania (SWPA) has long been an energy extractive periphery, continuously remade through cycles of dispossession and accumulation. Here we examine the changing dynamics of private property in these cycles and its central role in the latest phase of extraction—unconventional oil and gas development (UOGD).

Abstract This paper explores how vulnerability is not only defined by the state but also actively reshaped through policy implementation and lived experience. Drawing on ethnographic research in Eskişehir, Turkey, I propose an analytical distinction between the ‘commodification of vulnerability’—framing risk in technoscientific and moral terms to ...

Evaluasi Awal Kerentanan Pelulukan/likuefaksi Daerah Kendal Dan Sekitarnya, Jawa Tengah [PDF]
Http://dx.doi.org/10.17014/ijog.vol2no3.20074The investigated area is a region prone to liquefaction hazards since it consists of loose, saturated Quaternary deposits. The Quaternary deposits were deposited in several sediment environments such as swamp,

Stability of scour protection due to earthquake-induced liquefaction:centrifuge modelling [PDF]
A key aspect of permanent offshore structures is protection against scour. This is typically in the form of a blanket of coarse gravel or cobbles surrounding the structure.

Groundwater Transport in a Glaciomarine Aquitard: Paleosalinity and Landslide Implications
Transient 1D modeling of both [Cl] and δ18O demonstrates that advection and diffusion contribute to solute transport in porewater of glaciomarine Champlain Sea muds. Samples with the highest sensitivity (>30) for landslide hazard occur in the current leached zone.

Investigation of the fluidised zone in deep vibrocompaction [PDF]
Deep vibrocompaction is an established method for the improvement of loose sandy soils using deep vibrators. In a basic modelling concept, the area of the ground influenced by the vibrator is subdivided into three concentric cylindrical zones.
