Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2618-2633, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Weak‐Story Mitigation and Drift Redistribution in Moment‐Resisting Frames Using Stepping Rocking Walls

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2760-2780, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the seismic response of moment‐resisting frames retrofitted with a stepping rocking wall, with emphasis on weak‐story mitigation and residual drift reduction under both ordinary and pulse‐like ground motions. Nonlinear response‐history analyses are conducted on 9‐story and 20‐story SAC Los Angeles frames.

Uneven Impacts of Seawall Heightening on Tsunami Risk Reduction under Rising Sea Levels: Probabilistic Scenarios from the Japan Trench

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2948-2965, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

Five‐year follow‐up of the risk factors for psychological distress in youth after the Great East Japan Earthquake and nuclear disaster: The Fukushima Health Management Survey

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences Reports, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Aim This study examined the longitudinal association between age and mental health status to identify the risk factors for severe psychological distress in youth who experienced the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011. Methods A two‐wave longitudinal study was conducted using data from the Mental Health and Lifestyle Survey of Japan after the ...

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

Reviews 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 ...

Distinct Groundwater Regimes in West Antarctic Sedimentary Basins Inferred From Magnetotelluric Imaging

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Subglacial sedimentary basins in Antarctica are hypothesized to modulate ice flow and biogeochemical cycles via groundwater and geothermal feedbacks, yet their properties remain poorly constrained. Here, we present a joint quantitative analysis of new magnetotelluric (MT) data acquired at Thwaites Glacier (TG) and WAIS Divide, alongside legacy
