An Explainable Machine Learning Framework for Predicting West Nile Virus and Uncovering Key Transmission Drivers

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract This study introduces Disease Vector Intelligence (DVI), an explainable Machine Learning (ML) framework developed within the EYWA (EarlY WArning system for mosquito‐borne diseases) ecosystem. DVI integrates big Earth Observation (EO), socioeconomic, and estimated mosquito abundance data to predict the presence or absence of West Nile Virus ...

Time of arrival extraction for impact localisation on composite structures

Time of arrival (TOA) serves as a widely utilised metric for pinpointing impact locations on composite aircraft structures. Nevertheless, the effectiveness and reliability of existing TOA extraction methods across diverse impact scenarios remains unclear.

Ferric Chloride: The Venusian Unknown UV Absorber?

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Near‐ultraviolet imaging of the planet Venus reveals inhomogeneous absorption features in the otherwise bright clouds. This absorption has been studied for nearly 100 years, but identification of the near‐UV absorber remains one of the largest open questions in Venusian research.

Rising Aerosol Burdens in the Warm Desert City of Phoenix, AZ: Hydroclimatic–LULC Drivers and Exposure Disparities in a Climate–Land Surface–Society Framework

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Desert cities in the U.S. Southwest experience the nation's highest aerosol burdens, but how air pollution co‐evolves with hydroclimatic–LULC metrics and racial/ethnic exposure dynamics remains unclear. We developed 30 m Landsat‐derived summer aerosol optical depth (AOD) (2000–2020) for Phoenix, used explainable machine learning to attribute ...

An analysis of the error characteristics of two time of arrival localization techniques

, 2010
Accurate local positioning systems usually use a network of anchor nodes at known locations to track mobile nodes based on the measurement of the time of arrival (TOA) at anchor nodes of beacon signals transmitted by the mobile nodes.

Direct Assimilation of Satellite Visible and Near‐Infrared Radiances to Improve Aerosol Simulations

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Existing satellite‐based aerosol data assimilation approaches mostly rely on assimilating retrieved aerosol products, which suffer from inconsistencies between retrieval assumptions and model representations, as well as uncertainties in the retrieved aerosol parameters.

Disaster Schooling Experiences and Emergent Crises: Lessons From Puerto Rico

Anthropology &Education Quarterly, Volume 57, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the disaster schooling experiences of Puerto Rican educators, families, and students across multiple crises following Hurricane Maria. Drawing on 11 months of ethnographic research, we analyze how schooling unfolded across disasters and how long‐standing vulnerabilities and structural inequalities shaped responses. Findings

High Awareness, Low Clarity: Knowledge of the Australian Capital Territory's Multi‐Drug Decriminalisation Reform Among People Who Use Illicit Drugs

Drug and Alcohol Review, Volume 45, Issue 6, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction In October 2023, the Australian Capital Territory became the first Australian jurisdiction to decriminalise possession of small quantities of multiple illicit drugs by law, introducing an alternative, legislated pathway enabling police to divert individuals to a health education and information session or issue a $100 expiation ...
