Experimental Analysis of Rainfall-Induced Instability and Failure Patterns in Loess Fill Slopes

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering
Due to the complex terrain and topographical constraints of the Loess Plateau, flat land suitable for engineering construction is extremely limited. To address this issue, filling gullies and leveling land has become a common solution, resulting in the ...

Red giant seismology: Observations

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The CoRoT and Kepler missions provide us with thousands of red-giant light curves that allow a very precise asteroseismic study of these objects. Before CoRoT and Kepler, the red-giant oscillation patterns remained obscure.

In for a penny: An empirical study of earthquake experience and non‐pharmaceutical intervention effectiveness in the Marche region

open access: yesAnnals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates whether prior exposure to natural disasters influenced individual compliance with non‐pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), specifically lockdown measures, during the Corona Virus Infectious Disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic. Focusing on the Marche region of Italy, which experienced a severe earthquake in 2016, we exploit

Cassini Ring Seismology as a Probe of Saturn's Interior I: Rigid Rotation

open access: yes, 2018
Seismology of the gas giants holds the potential to resolve long-standing questions about their internal structure and rotation state. We construct a family of Saturn interior models constrained by the gravity field and compute their adiabatic mode ...

Response of Remote Tropical West Pacific Islands to Climate Variability: A Multiproxy Record From T‐Lake, Palau, Spanning the Early Holocene to Present

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.

Magneto-seismology of solar atmospheric loops by means of longitudinal oscillations

open access: yes, 2012
There is increasingly strong observational evidence that slow magnetoacoustic modes arise in the solar atmosphere. Solar magneto-seismology is a novel tool to derive otherwise directly un-measurable properties of the solar atmosphere when ...

Linking Stress Drop and Slip Heterogeneity to Assess Source Rupture Directivity for Earthquakes in Central Italy

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we examine the relationship between Brune stress drop and fault slip where the stress drop is estimated using the Empirical Green's Function (EGF) method and slip distribution is derived from seismic and geodetic data inversion.

Ionospheric disturbances associated with the 2015 M7.8 Nepal earthquake

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2017
Based on the total electron content (TEC) derived from Global Positioning System (GPS) observations of the Crustal Movement Observation Network of China (CMONOC) and the Global Ionosphere Map (GIM) from the Center for Orbit Determination in Europe (CODE),

Team Cognition Research Is Transforming Cognitive Science

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract About 30 years ago, the Dynamical Hypothesis instigated a variety of insights and transformations in cognitive science. One of them was the simple observation that, quite unlike trial‐based tasks in a laboratory, natural ecologically valid behaviors almost never have context‐free starting points.
