Bionic Tactile Skins for Robotics: Fundamentals, Advances, and Future Prospects

open access: yesSmartSys, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Robotic bionic tactile skins (RBTSs), as crucial components of next‐generation robotic systems, have attracted significant attention in recent years. By enabling robots to achieve human‐like tactile perception and interact effectively with their surroundings, RBTSs play an essential role in enhancing robotic intelligence.

Toward an Improved Understanding of the Antarctic Coastal Zone and Its Contribution to Future Global Sea Level

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Understanding the coastal zone of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), where it interacts with the Southern Ocean and warmer air masses, is crucial for predicting Antarctica's influence on the global climate and sea level. This region has multiple tipping mechanisms that could trigger large, rapid, and potentially irreversible changes in the AIS ...

River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Infragravity Waves Across a Steep‐Sloping Rough Rocky Seabed on the Inner Shelf

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Observations of infragravity (IG) waves were conducted from June to October 2023 along the rocky shores off China Rock, CA, on the inner shelf at depths of 8–13 m. The study examines inner‐shelf IG wave dynamics over rough, steep rocky shores and compares them with those over smoother, gentler sandy shores and coral reefs. IG energy correlated

Characterizing the Distribution of Nepheloid Layers and Their Response to Hydrodynamics in the NE Rockall Trough, NE Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Suspended and slow‐sinking particles, especially those concentrated within nepheloid layers, can act as pivotal mediators of oceanic carbon transport and benthic‐pelagic coupling. However, identifying nepheloid layers and distinguishing their composition (i.e., inorganic particles, phytoplankton, zooplankton, and fish) using only acoustic ...

Brine Pool Microbes Enrich Metalliferous Sediments in Salt Giant Basins

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 6, September 2026.
Abstract We report the discovery of an extinct deep‐sea brine pool in the Red Sea's Hume Deep, providing evidence that rift‐shoulder pools are ephemeral on millennial timescales, and that the microbially‐enriched metalliferous deposits produced during the pool's active phase persist into the stratigraphic record.

Depositional History of the Namibian Mud Belt Reveals Late Holocene Weakening of the Benguela Coastal Current

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We investigate late Holocene changes in the northern Benguela Upwelling System using a multi‐proxy approach on shallow shelf deposits from the Namibian mud belt. Three sediment cores characterized by organic carbon‐rich, anoxic, and partly gas‐bearing sediments were retrieved along a sampling transect at 23°S in August 2019.

An Event‐Based Framework Reveals Regionally Distinct Coastal Cold‐Water Regimes Along the East Coast of Korea

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Coastal cold‐water events (CWEs) reduce nearshore sea surface temperature (SST) and can cause ecological and socioeconomic impacts; however, objective detection and process‐based diagnostics remain limited in marginal seas influenced by western boundary currents.

Seabed acoustic classification in the Pelotas basin, Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2013
The present study sought to develop a seabed map of the region of the Pelotas Basin using acoustic methods. A total number of 1,507,823 seabed reflectivity data, collected during six oceanographic surveys, were processed to generate a seabed map.
