Life-cycle costs and infrastructural investments induced by unconventional low-noise aircraft
The environment challenge and the expected growth of the market demand impose a technology breakthrough within the aeronautical industry. Although several innovative configurations of airplanes have been analyzed, none of them has been yet chosen as the ...

The Rising Tide Lifts Some Interest Rates: Climate Change, Natural Disasters, and Loan Pricing
ABSTRACT Banks adjust loan spreads after observing natural disasters linked to climate change. We isolate this updating process by identifying loans to borrowers at risk of, but not directly affected by, such disasters. Loan spreads for these borrowers spike in both primary and secondary markets, while no such updating occurs for non–climate‐related ...

Dam Management in the Era of Climate Change
ABSTRACT Climate change has a dramatic impact, particularly by concentrating rainfall into a few short periods, interspersed with long dry spells. In this context, the role of dams is crucial. We consider the optimal control of a dam, where the water level must neither exceed a designated safety threshold nor fall below a minimum level to ensure ...

Kogia Records in Brazilian Equatorial and Southwestern Atlantic Oceans
ABSTRACT The pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (Kogia sima) sperm whales are cryptic cetaceans characterized by inconspicuous surfacing behavior, small group sizes, and deep‐diving habits, making visual detection particularly challenging. Here, we present the first broad‐scale passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) assessment of Kogia spp.

Quantifying the Role of 3D Fault Geometry Complexities on Slow and Fast Earthquakes
Abstract Traditional models of slow slip events (SSEs) oversimplify fault geometry, although imaging shows subduction faults are segmented and complex. We examine how fault interactions control slip behavior using 3D quasi‐dynamic simulations of two parallel faults with uniform rate‐weakening friction accelerated by hierarchical matrices.

Abstract Fault‐slip reversals indicate transient stress changes and may illuminate earthquake preparation processes. Here we present high‐resolution observations of sub‐millimetric creep and slip reversals on the Altaquelle Fault, a Quaternary normal fault in the southern Vienna Basin, preceding a regionally significant intraplate earthquake sequence ...

Segmented Moho Uplift and Implications for Magmatic Underplating Beneath the Datong Basin
Abstract Understanding how the deep crust responds to coupled tectonic and magmatic processes is essential for deciphering intracontinental rifting. We apply high‐resolution passive‐source reverse time migration to teleseismic P‐wave receiver functions recorded by a dense seismic array to image the Moho beneath the Datong Basin. Our observations reveal

Abstract We present new results from ambient noise tomography and azimuthal anisotropy analysis of the DOMERAPI data set to investigate crustal structure beneath the Merapi‐Merbabu‐Telomoyo region in central Java. The 3D shear‐wave velocity (Vs) model reveals a prominent high‐Vs anomaly extending from south of Merapi through Merbabu to Telomoyo ...
