Predicting Seismic Debris Distributions of Collapsed Unreinforced Masonry Structures Through Physics Engines and Machine Learning Algorithms

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
Unreinforced masonry (URM) structures are widespread worldwide, particularly in older urban districts. However, URM buildings—particularly those constructed before the introduction of modern building codes—are highly vulnerable to seismic hazard, and prone to experiencing local and/or global failures when subjected to significant horizontal shaking ...

Vulnerability of public buildings subjected to earthquake by finite element modelling [PDF]

, 2006
Tremors in Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia due to Sumatra and Philippine earthquakes have been reported several times. Engineers are concerned of the seismic vulnerability of public buildings due to lack of earthquake consideration in Malaysia’s ...

Subsurface characterization and seismic risk mapping in Padang City using HVSR and resistivity data

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management
Padang City, situated in a seismically active region, faces significant earthquake risk due to its complex geological structure. This study integrates passive seismic and geoelectrical resistivity methods to characterize subsurface conditions and map ...

Neonate mortality in mountain caribou: Patterns of predation during onset of a wolf reduction program

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
We used an individual‐based movement method, supported by camera trap data, to assess changes in neonate caribou mortality patterns before and after wolf reduction began in the Itcha‐Ilgachuz mountain caribou subpopulation range, British Columbia, Canada.

Structural Accommodation as a Coastal Adaptation Response to Sea‐Level Rise: Lessons From Europe

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Global sea‐level rise is intensifying pressures on coastal regions, increasing the need for adaptation strategies (e.g., protect, retreat, accommodate). At the same time, decision makers require a better understanding of the available responses to address the widening adaptation implementation gap.

Should all Noises Be Treated Equally: Impact of Input Noise Variability on Neural Network Robustness

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Geophysical data collected from active field sites are often contaminated by complex and heterogeneous noise, obscuring weak seismic events, and complicating automated interpretation. Although deep learning offers promising solutions for seismic processing, its performance is highly sensitive to the nature of training noise, especially under ...

Early warning signal for river‐borne diseases with almost no data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 615-625, February 2026.
Abstract Effective management of emerging river‐borne diseases requires early prediction of pathogen spatial distributions. However, data on pathogen locations are notoriously rare in the beginning of disease outbreaks and insufficient to feed existing predictive models.

The power of the past: materializing collective memory at early medieval lordly centres

Early Medieval Europe, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 34-69, February 2026.
The repurposing of earlier sites and monuments is an enduringly popular theme in early medieval archaeology, but in England it has attracted little interest among Late Saxon and early post‐Conquest studies. From the tenth century, however, an increasingly prevalent pattern is discernible of secular lords locating their power centres in relation to ...
