Model Suggests Undersea Mountains Help Mix the Global Ocean
Seamounts may play a significant role in ocean turbulence and the upwelling of deep waters.
High-Pressure Reactions Can Turn Nonporous Rocks into Sponges
Mathematical models describe how water moves through rocks in deep Earth.
Forecasting Caldera Collapse Using Deep Learning
A deep learning model trained with geophysical data recorded during the well-documented 2018 Kilauea volcano eruption, Hawaii, predicts recurrent caldera collapse events.
Swedish Icebreaker Is the First to Dig Into Greenland’s Remote Victoria Fjord
Data collected aboard Oden will shed light on the dynamics of the Greenland Ice Sheet.
An All-Community Push to “Close the Loops” on Southern Ocean Dynamics
A new study highlights the connected nature of the Southern Ocean dynamic system, the research priorities needed to understand its influence on climate change, the importance of cross-disciplinary collaborations.
Sediment Dampens the Impact of Glaciation on Cenozoic Denudation
Rates of continental-scale sediment flux and denudation are similar between glacial and interglacial periods when the aggradation of glacier-eroded sediment inhibits fluvial erosion downstream.
Spectral Solar Radiative Transfer in Plant Canopies
Spectrally resolved radiative transfer is needed to compute reliable estimates of sunlight transmission and photolysis of molecules within plant canopies.
Investigating Origins of CO2 Ice on Uranian Moons
A new study investigates the role of volatile migration in the unique Uranian thermal environment.
Operational Earthquake Forecasting – What Is It and How Is It Done?
While earthquakes cannot be deterministically predicted, operational earthquake forecasting systems can provide valuable insights into the likelihood of future quakes.
