Seabed classification in the Gulf of Alaska from acoustic surveys using deep learning
Abstract High‐resolution mapping of seafloor habitats has wide applications for fisheries, conservation efforts, offshore infrastructure planning, mineral extraction, and scientific modeling. This study leverages existing widespread single‐beam acoustic data and machine learning to create habitat maps for the Gulf of Alaska at a spatial resolution of ...

Interplay Roles of Telework and Climate Hazard Risks in Recent Migration Trends in the United States
ABSTRACT Telework has become a lasting feature of the U.S. labor market, expanding workers' freedom to live farther from their workplaces. At the same time, climate hazards such as hurricanes, droughts, and floods are growing in severity and frequency, shaping where people feel safe and comfortable living.

ABSTRACT Personal autonomous vehicles can sense their surrounding environment, plan their route, and drive with little or no involvement of human drivers. Despite the latest technological advancements and the hopeful announcements made by leading entrepreneurs, to date no personal vehicle is approved for road circulation in a “fully” or “semi ...

Possible inundation map of coastal areas of gujarat with a tsunamigenic earthquake [PDF]
The western Indian peninsula experienced the most destructive tsunami ever recorded in the Arabian Sea by the 28th November 1945 earthquake (Mw 8.1) in Makran region. The run-up height during the tsunami was of 17m at Makran coast and 11 to 11.5m in Gulf

Abstract Hurricane Harvey (2017) produced 31 net‐erosional washout channels on San Jose Island, Texas, USA, where offshore‐directed flows cut through two dune ridges and the beach. Channel growth was affected by natural, pre‐existing aeolian topography, rather than prior washover channels or infrastructure. We investigate how offshore directed outwash,

Abstract Sea level rise presents a range of hazards, including rising groundwater tables, salinization, and subsurface flooding, which threaten subsurface infrastructure in coastal communities. Groundwater shoaling inundates basements, tunnels, and utility networks, and mobilizes contaminants, while salinization accelerates corrosion and deteriorates ...

Archives of impact: The politics of craters on Earth
This paper examines Earth’s 195 confirmed impact craters as archives, exploring their cataloguing and presentation as heritage sites. It argues Western scientific framings using military language and emphasising catastrophe overlook settler colonialism’s violent histories and marginalise indigenous earth‐sky cosmologies.

Advancing Systemic Risk Assessment for Complex, Interdependent Systems: A Research Agenda
ABSTRACT Engineering risk assessment has traditionally focused on direct impacts to individual assets or systems. However, as society's most notable risks increasingly stem from complex, interdependent systems, conventional methods fail to capture the cascading consequences and deepening uncertainty. Addressing this gap requires developing or extending
