Volcanic lightning: exploring the correlation between volcanic eruption, lightning and transient luminous events from 2009 to 2022

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences
Volcanic activity represents one of the most widespread and destructive natural phenomena on Earth. Previous studies and media reports have indicated that intense volcanic eruptions are frequently accompanied by volcanic lightning. However, understanding

Earthquake and Tsunami NaTech Risk Assessment for Oil Storage Facilities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 9, Page 1887-1904, 25 July 2026.
ABSTRACT Interaction of natural and technological hazards (NaTech) events, such as tsunamis and earthquakes, can affect industrial facilities such as those featuring anchored atmospheric storage tanks. Consequences of natural events on this kind of installation may include the release of hazardous substances, which in turn can lead to industrial ...

Fiber-Optic Current Sensor Validation with Triggered Lightning Measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A fiber optic current sensor based on the Faraday Effect is developed that is highly suitable for aircraft installation and can measure total current enclosed in a fiber loop down to DC. Other attributes include being small, light-weight, non-conducting,

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1115-1141, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Cadaveric Study of the Juvenile Grey Heron's (Ardea cinerea) Nasal Cavity and Associated Structures Through Computed Tomography and Anatomical Sections

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study provides the first comprehensive anatomical and CT characterization of the nasal cavity of the grey heron, enabling the identification of its major components and spatial organization. Correlative evaluation of multiplanar CT images with anatomical sections proved highly effective for delineating landmarks, offering a reference for clinical ...

Finding Fireballs in Lightning: A Daily Pipeline to Find Meteors in Weather Satellite Data

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Weather satellite data contains a wealth of information well beyond its application to meteorology. The GOES weather satellite Geostationary Lightning Mapper instruments detect millions of lightning strikes per day. Within these “haystacks” of lightning are a handful of “needles” of bolides (aka bright fireballs, or exploding meteors). We have

Contemporary disasters may not kill more women than men: an empirical inquiry into sex‐differentiated fatalities in the twenty‐first century

open access: yesDisasters, Volume 50, Issue 3, July 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the claim that women are disproportionately more likely to die in disasters by reviewing existing data sources and compiling new datasets on sex‐differentiated disaster fatalities in the twenty‐first century. The analysis is structured by disaster type, covering geophysical, meteorological, climatological, hydrological,
