Active Tectonics of the Eastern and Southern Alps ‐ Crustal Response to Deep Processes? A Review
Abstract Owing to the low N‐S convergence rates between Adria and Europe, crustal deformation rates in the Alps and its forelands are low. Active tectonics are, therefore, difficult to study, especially as non‐tectonic landscape forming processes can erase or modify the tectonic surface imprint. Large‐scale and dense seismological data recently offered

Climatology of Storm Characteristics for Sub‐Daily Heavy Precipitation in the Greater Alpine Region
Abstract Characterizing storms that generate heavy precipitation across different timescales is essential for parameterizing and assessing stochastic weather generators, evaluating climate models, enhancing risk management, and understanding climate change impacts.

Abstract Instantaneous event deposits such as turbidites, debrites, and slumps are common and frequently occur in marginal seas. These instantaneous deposits represent seconds to days in duration, and can therefore significantly impact age‐depth models and interpretation of paleoclimate history based on thick sedimentary sequences recovered in deep ...

Submarine Landslide Optimization Algorithm
Submarine landslides are a typical geodynamic process, the mechanism of which involves complex factors such as sediment gravity drive, frictional resistance, sediment interlayer rearrangement, and local fragmentation and reorganization. Inspired by the physical mechanisms of submarine landslides, this paper proposes a novel heuristic optimization ...

Abstract We present a comprehensive seismic characterization of the gas hydrate system in the outer continental shelf of the Mackenzie Trough, Canadian Beaufort Sea, based on recently acquired multichannel seismic (MCS) data, P‐wave velocity modeling, and 3D thermal modeling. We identified high‐amplitude, reverse‐polarity Bottom‐Simulating Reflections (

Abstract Fjords are globally significant sedimentary archives that record the relationship between glacial, tectonic, and marine processes. Fiordland, on the southwest coast of New Zealand, hosts one of the most extensive temperate fjord provinces in the Southern Hemisphere, yet its postglacial evolution has remained poorly constrained.

ABSTRACT Freshwater molluscs are key bioindicators of ecosystem health, yet their conservation status and data coverage in sub‐Saharan Africa remain poorly understood. Mollusca is the third most evaluated phylum on the IUCN Red List in Africa, with 1394 species assessed (656 freshwater), of which 39.6% are Least Concern and 12% Critically Endangered ...

Fire–Moisture Interactions Shape Recovery Trajectories Across Temperate Vegetation Communities
Future recovery from fire will be governed not only by characteristics of the fire itself and those of the affected vegetation community, but also by the extent to which these characteristics interact with prevailing hydro‐climatic conditions. Favourable soil moisture conditions post‐fire increase the likelihood that ecosystems will recover to a stable

A Matrix‐Free, Scalable, and Robust Implicit Material Point Method
ABSTRACT An implicit material point method is presented using a new dynamic relaxation solver, allowing for a simple and efficient quasi‐static formulation that may be readily implemented in existing explicit‐dynamic codes. The use of dynamic relaxation and aggregation is shown to produce an extremely robust material point method scheme, with good ...
