Submarine landslide inventory for the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake
High resolution bathymetric data has allowed submarine landslides triggered by the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake in New Zealand to be mapped (Gnesko et al. 2026). In total 853 slope failures were identified. I rarely feature submarine landslides in this blog – they are beyond my area of expertise – but I came across a really cool…
Distant Oceans May Help Predict Malaria Risk in Malawi
A new study finds that ocean temperatures thousands of kilometers away shape soil moisture in Malawi, offering a potential tool for forecasting malaria outbreaks months in advance.
How Tides and River Water Combine to Amplify Floods
Tidal subharmonics help push water levels higher in tidal rivers.
Changes in Funding Could Tank Quality of Ocean Heat Content Data
An uncertain funding landscape threatens the longevity of an ocean observation system critical to projecting tropical storms, sea level rise, and more.
