Integrating Grain to Ground Motion Data for Critical Rock Bridge and Slope Failure Analysis
ABSTRACT Rock masses can fail catastrophically with little warning, yet their stability depends on hidden internal connections that channel forces and localise damage. Among these, rock bridges–a “known unknown” in slope mechanics–lock fractured rock and control how failure unfolds, but their concealed geometry and uncertain strength obscure where and ...

A schematic showing the links of tree‐scale (root‐, stem‐, and leaf‐level) and ecosystem‐scale water relations during the CSAD at CH‐Lae. Summary The summer of 2022 was characterized by compound soil and atmospheric drought (CSAD; low soil water content, SWC, and high vapor pressure deficit, VPD) in Central Europe, threatening forest carbon ...

Abstract Ground deformation of dormant volcanoes provides critical insights into subsurface processes and potential hazards. Here we present Sentinel‐1 Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) time series (2015–2020) for Changbaishan volcano, the largest intraplate volcanic system in East Asia. We detect persistent subsidence of up to 3.5 mm/yr

Microphysics and Kinematics of a High Flash Rate Storm With a Bottom‐Heavy Charge Structure
Abstract An atypical thunderstorm with unusual lightning and charge structure characteristics propagated through Cordoba province, Argentina, during the austral warm season in late 2018. This storm exhibited echo tops near 10.5 km, with high lightning activity concentrated at low altitudes.

Abstract Particle size and physical properties such as stiffness and adhesiveness affect sinking velocity and flux in the ocean, yet conventional two‐dimensional measurements lack accuracy and mechanical information. In this study, we applied atomic force microscopy (AFM) to quantify three‐dimensional size and physical properties of marine particles ...
