The rise and fall of a volcanic plateau: Landscape evolution at the fringes of the former Patagonian Ice Sheet, Meseta Chile Chico, central Patagonian Andes

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding Earth‐surface processes along the fringes of large ice sheets is integral to deciphering cold‐region environmental variability and anticipating slope instability under climate change. We investigate the Meseta Chile Chico, a volcanic plateau in the central Patagonian Andes, located at the eastern margin of the former Patagonian ...

3D seismic imagery of a buried glacitectonic thrust complex in the North Sea and the dimensions of composite ridge systems in glaciated landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sets of sub‐parallel composite ridges in glaciated landscapes have long been regarded as landforms produced by glacitectonism, the brittle and ductile deformation of sediments at and immediately beyond glacier and ice‐sheet margins resulting from stresses produced by ice.

A Phase‐Field Model for Quasi‐Dynamic Rupture Nucleation and Propagation of In‐Plane Faults

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Computational modeling of faulting processes is an essential tool for understanding earthquake mechanics but remains challenging due to the structural and material complexities of fault zones. The phase‐field method has recently enabled unified modeling of fault propagation and off‐fault damage within a fracture‐mechanics‐based framework ...

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.

Hexapod Locomotion Across Structured and Unstructured Terrains: A Data‐Driven Review of Modeling, Control, and Validation

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The design of a hexapod is complex and requires integration between kinematic models, control systems, and sensing. Existing literature has reviewed these sub‐systems in isolation. Since 2021, there has been no review of the field despite significant advancements in soft soil, lunar traversal, and artificial intelligence.
