Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 133-151., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

EVALUATION OF THE IMPACT OF MAJOR EARTHQUAKES ON EXCITING LONG PERIOD FREE-EARTH LITHOSPHERIC OSCILLATIONS, ATMOSPHERIC-IONOSPHERIC PERTRUBATIONS, AND FAR-FIELD TSUNAMI-LIKE WATER LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2020 The whole Earth resonates like a bell with normal modes of resonance at distinct frequencies. When extremely large earthquakes strike, the Earth’s free oscillations are excited.

Shallow very-low-frequency earthquakes accompany slow slip events in the Nankai subduction zone
Nature Communications, 2018 Slow earthquakes are now increasingly recognised to occur at plate boundaries globally. Here, the authors examine seafloor observational data from the Nankai trough and find that very-low-frequency events and slow-slip events frequently occur together ...

Tsunami Damage Detection with Remote Sensing: A Review
Géosciences, 2020 Tsunamis are rare events compared with the other natural disasters, but once it happens, it can be extremely devastating to the coastal communities. Extensive inland penetration of tsunamis may cause the difficulties of understanding its impact in the ...

THE 326 BC EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI IN THE NORTHERN ARABIAN SEA - IMPACT ON THE FLEET OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT [PDF]
Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2022 Ancient Greek and Indian texts support that destructive sea waves along the Makran coast in the northern Arabian Sea were responsible for the partial destruction of Alexander the Great’s fleet in 326 BC.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.
