From Hurricane Irma to the Grindavík eruptions: volatility premiums in disaster governance

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Environmental volatility can inflate property values even as it destroys them. To show how, this article pairs a postcolonial micro‐state in the Caribbean (Sint Maarten after Hurricane Irma) with a Nordic welfare town (Grindavík in Iceland following volcanic eruptions) because they occupy the opposite ends of the governance capacity spectrum ...

Front‐Footed Defense: Leveraging Early Counsel Intervention for Expedited Justice

Law &Policy, Volume 48, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Contemporary criminal justice systems have increasingly prioritized efficiency as a key guiding principle in their institutional processes. This research examines the role of defense counsel to analyze whether and how lawyers strategically adapt their advocacy methods as they balance the demands of procedural efficiency with their professional

Increasing Efficiency of Detection and Validation of Baleen Whale Call Presence on Large Acoustic Datasets: A Case Study Using Sei Whale Downsweeps Recorded in Atlantic Canada

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT As passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) datasets expand, studies increasingly use automated detectors to analyze baleen whale presence. However, detector errors like false positives (impacting precision, P; proportion of detected calls that are correct), and false negatives (impacting recall, R; proportion of available calls successfully detected)

Exceptionally Elongated Strike‐Slip Rupture Caused by the 2025 MW 7.8 Myanmar Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The interplay between fault geometry and rupture behavior remains poorly understood. The 2025 Myanmar earthquake ruptured the Sagaing fault, a major continental strike‐slip fault with simple geometry. We integrated geodetic and teleseismic observations to investigate its rupture process through finite‐fault kinematic inversions and back ...

Holistic Retrieval of Absolute Coseismic Displacement Fields From Single Interferograms via Physics‐Aware GANs

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract The efficacy of rapid seismic response is fundamentally constrained by the sequential, multi‐step nature of conventional InSAR processing, where error propagation and reliance on auxiliary data hinder automation. Here, we present a holistic framework using Physics‐Aware Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to directly retrieve absolute ...
