Advancing Systemic Risk Assessment for Complex, Interdependent Systems: A Research Agenda

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.
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

Unpacking the Contribution of Birth Circumstances to Inequality Using a Shapley Decomposition: The Case of Chile

open access: yesReview of Income and Wealth, Volume 72, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the role of inherited circumstances in labor market inequality of opportunity in Chile. We estimate their contribution as the change in total inequality after removing their influence. Since this contribution may differ depending on whether it is measured before or after removing the influence of other factors, we use the ...

Validation of 1‐Day Repeat SWOT Measurements Against Tide‐Gauge and Glider Data Off Canada's West Coast

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite observations are shown to agree well with tide gauge and underwater glider data in the Northeast Pacific. The SWOT mission measures sea surface height in a 120‐km wide swath. It had a 1‐day repeat cycle for 3 months in 2023.

How Volume Increases the Mobility of Geophysical Granular Flow: A Unified Rheological Perspective

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Geophysical granular flows, involving rapidly flowing granular materials, can exhibit volume‐enhanced mobility. Lacking a mechanistic understanding of such size effects limits the applications of lab‐scale findings to natural events. Using discrete element method simulations, we find that increasing granular system size suppresses energy ...

Trench‐Breaching Rupture of the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Earthquake and How It Repeats the 1952 Event

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The 29 July 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake generated a trans‐Pacific tsunami. The hypocenter was nearly at the same location as the 1952 great earthquake (Mw 8.8–9.0). Determining whether the 2025 rupture reached the trench and how it relates to the 1952 event is crucial for understanding slip behavior along the Kamchatka subduction zone. We

The Slip Distributions of the 1952 and 2025 Kamchatka Earthquakes From Tsunami Waveforms Recorded Around the Pacific Ocean

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The July 2025 Kamchatka earthquake (Mw 8.8) generated Pacific‐wide tsunamis. Inversion of 40 DART bottom pressure records revealed a large (∼9 m) slip at 200–400 km southwest of the epicenter. This model reproduces the local geodetic data, and is similar to other finite fault models based on teleseismic and geodetic data. Inversion of the tide
