The Shifting Paradigms of Disaster Robotics Three Decades of Research
ABSTRACT The increasing frequency and magnitude of natural disasters worldwide have raised the demand for advanced robotic systems in disaster response. In this research, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of 2,201 Web of Science database papers was investigate systematically global research trends, patterns and emerging frontiers in disaster ...

The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review
ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

Wavelet‐Based Hurst Exponent Estimation
The review explores how wavelet‐based methods for estimating the Hurst parameters have developed from their theoretical roots to real‐world applications in fields like biology, engineering, and telecommunications. The review aims to highlight key techniques, compare their strengths and limitations, and point out challenges that still need to be ...

Time‐Reversal Full Wavefield Inversion: From Waveform Misfit to Wavefield Focus
ABSTRACT We introduce time‐reversal full wavefield inversion (TRFWI), a velocity‐model‐building method that replaces waveform‐misfit minimization with a physically motivated wavefield‐focusing criterion. The recorded data are reversed in time and backpropagated through a trial velocity model; the inversion objective is the degree to which the wavefield

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review
To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

Colombia and other tropical regions face a very high threat from torrential floods, which have resulted in over 25,000 deaths in a single event. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive assessment methodology to zone and determine the magnitude of these disasters; therefore, this research aims to help fill this gap.

Abstract An intense seismic swarm started on 27 January 2025 in the Santorini‐Amorgos region and lasted for approximately 45 days. A widely observed seismic tremor on 14 February 2025 suggested a volcanic origin for the 2025 Santorini crisis. Here we present an in‐depth combined seismological analysis of the earthquakes and tremors that occurred during

High Melt Fraction Induced by the Dehydration Melting Near the 410‐km Discontinuity
Abstract The water‐rich mantle transition zone, coupled with the low water storage capacity of the upper mantle, suggests that dehydration melting occurs just above the mantle transition zone near the 410‐km discontinuity. However, the melt fraction produced by the dehydration melting process remains poorly constrained.

Abstract Seismic and aseismic slip has been reported in the Nankai Trough. In this study we apply ambient noise differential adjoint tomography to obtain a high‐resolution S‐wave velocity (Vs) model in the Nankai Trough. The Vs in the very shallow imbricate thrust zone is higher than that on both the seaward and landward sides.

Abrupt Suppression of Tectonic Tremors Outside the Stress Shadow of Mendocino Earthquakes
Abstract Tectonic tremor is a long‐duration noise‐like seismic signal associated with slow fault motion at major plate boundaries. Due to their remarkable sensitivity to stress perturbations, tremors serve as invaluable probes of the mechanical state and stress conditions deep within fault zones.
