Abstract Beach stratigraphy at North Beach, Sandy Hook, New Jersey is used to calibrate a model of coastal erosion, establish a model‐based erosion threshold, and evaluate how often threshold conditions have been exceeded since 1979 through hindcast analysis.

From Risk Perception to Action: The Behavioral Forces Shaping Disaster Preparedness
Abstract The study examines the behavioral forces spanning cognitive, social, and environmental determinants that transform disaster risk perception into tangible preparedness actions. The case study at hand focuses on Bucharest, the European capital with the highest seismic risk.

Attenuation curves of seismic intensity
Актуальность работы. Сейсмическая интенсивность является наиболее точной характеристикой сейсмических воздействий, поскольку она напрямую связана с повреждаемостью строительных объектов. В то же время, повреждаемость объектов определяется параметрами сейсмических воздействий.

Abstract Only one quarter of the global ocean floor has been directly surveyed; the remaining three quarters are inferred from satellite altimeter‐derived gravity data using techniques developed in the 1990s. These classical methods correlate gravity anomalies with known depths and extrapolate bathymetry in unsounded regions.

New 2010 Maule Aftershock Catalog Reveals Structure of the Deep Subduction Interface
Abstract On 27 February 2010, a Mw 8.8 earthquake occurred near Maule in south‐central Chile. The subsequent rapid deployment of a dense network of seismic stations on land was able to capture the first year of its aftershock sequence. Here, we revisit this data set using picking Artificial Intelligence tools, a 3D velocity model of the region and ...

Abstract The widespread presence of submarine permafrost in the southern Canadian Beaufort Sea provides necessary stability conditions for gas hydrates on the shallow shelf. However, the submarine permafrost is still relatively underexplored. Representing mostly relict terrestrial permafrost, submarine permafrost was formed by subaerial exposure to ...

Abstract Accurate characterization of the compressional to shear (P‐to‐S) wave‐speed ratio (vp/vs ${v}_{p}/{v}_{s}$) within the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is crucial for understanding its internal structure, mechanical stability, and vulnerability to a changing climate.
