Mysteries of the Global Carbon Cycle
Less than half of the anthropogenic carbon dioxide remains in the atmosphere to drive climate change. The rest is being removed by mysterious processes in…
Can We Better Predict Coastal Change?
A new special collection invites studies on a new era of models and knowledge that provide predictions or insights into predictability in coastal geomorphology.
The Big Data Revolution Unlocks New Opportunities for Seismology
The field of seismology is entering a new era where our understanding of earthquakes and the solid earth is increasingly driven by new Big Data…
The Kinetics of the Seismic Cycle
Large earthquakes are necessarily punctuated by some degree of strength recovery, such as “fault healing”, but does quartz cementation during fluid-fault interactions facilitate that process?
Mountains Undergo Enhanced Impacts of Climate Change
As climate change persists, amplified temperature increases in mountains and changes in precipitation will diminish snow and ice.
