Reconstruction of daily rainfall data using the concepts of networks: Accounting for spatial connections in neighborhood selection (2019)
Journal Article

Accurate and reliable rainfall data is one of the fundamental prerequisites in hydrological modelling. The rainfall data at a desired location can be reconstructed using interpolation methods, such as Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW), which is freque...

The influence of a slope break on turbidite deposits: An experimental investigation (2020)
Journal Article

Bypassing turbidity currents can travel downslope without depositing any of their suspended sediment load. Along the way, they may encounter a slope break (i.e. an abrupt decrease in slope angle) that initiates sediment deposition. Depending on the i...

Quaternary Reelfoot fault deformation in the Obion River valley, Tennessee, USA (2021)
Journal Article

Blind reverse faults are challenging to detect, and earthquake records can be elusive because deep fault slip does not break the surface along readily recognized scarps. The blind Reelfoot fault in the New Madrid seismic zone in the central United St... Read More about Quaternary Reelfoot fault deformation in the Obion River valley, Tennessee, USA.

The effect of leaf-on and leaf-off forest canopy conditions on LiDAR derived estimations of forest structural diversity (2020)
Journal Article

Forest structural diversity metrics describing diversity in tree size and crown shape within forest stands can be used as indicators of biodiversity. These diversity metrics can be generated using airborne laser scanning (LiDAR) data to provide a rap...

An Assessment of Global Forest Change Datasets for National Forest Monitoring and Reporting (2020)
Journal Article

Global Forest Change datasets have the potential to assist countries with national forest measuring, reporting and verification (MRV) requirements. This paper assesses the accuracy of the Global Forest Change data against nationally derived forest ch...

Direct evidence of a high-concentration basal layer in a submarine turbidity current (2020)
Journal Article

Submarine turbidity currents are one of the most important sediment transfer processes on earth. Yet the fundamental nature of turbidity currents is still debated; especially whether they are entirely dilute and turbulent, or a thin and dense basal l...

Geospatial modeling suggests threats from stormy seas to Rhode Island's coastal septic systems (2020)
Journal Article

Coastal communities preparing for climate change and sea-level rise need to consider the impact large storms will have on belowground infrastructure. Although these communities often rely on on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTSs) to treat waste...

Çatalhöyük and Its Landscapes (2020)
Journal Article

T he landscape surrounding the site of Çatalhöyük has been transformed by centuries of land use and agricultural improvements (fig. 1). The most recent transformations started in the early twentieth century aiming to improve agricultural productivity... Read More about Çatalhöyük and Its Landscapes.

Salt-marsh foraminiferal distributions from mainland northern Georgia, USA: an assessment of their viability for sea-level studies (2020)
Journal Article

We investigated foraminiferal distributions from two salt-marsh sites at Thunderbolt and Georgetown, in mainland northern Georgia, U.S. Atlantic coast. We analyzed modern epifaunal foraminiferal assemblages across multiple transects consisting of 54...

A spatial total nitrogen budget for Great Britain (2020)
Journal Article

Understanding nutrient budgets makes it possible to predict where and by how much nutrients are accumulating in the environment. Previous studies have considered this problem for nitrogen (N) but have limited themselves to reactive N species (i.e. ex... Read More about A spatial total nitrogen budget for Great Britain.

Estimating global mean sea-level rise and its uncertainties by 2100 and 2300 from an expert survey (2020)
Journal Article

Sea-level rise projections and knowledge of their uncertainties are vital to make informed mitigation and adaptation decisions. To elicit projections from members of the scientific community regarding future global mean sea-level (GMSL) rise, we repe...

Uncertainties of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment Model Predictions in North America associated with 3D structure (2020)
Journal Article

We quantify GIA prediction uncertainties of 250 1D and 3D glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) models through comparisons with deglacial relative sea‐level (RSL) data from North America and rate of vertical land motion ( urn:x-wiley:00948276:media:grl6...

Sensitivity of tidal marshes as recorders of major megathrust earthquakes: constraints from the 25 December 2016 Mw 7.6 Chiloé earthquake, Chile (2021)
Journal Article

We present evidence of land-level change resulting from the 2016 Mw 7.6 Chiloé earthquake from tidal wetlands along the southern coastline of Isla de Chiloé, Chile, to test criteria for the detection of low-level,

What determines the downstream evolution of turbidity currents? (2019)
Journal Article

Seabed sediment flows called turbidity currents form some of the largest sediment accumulations, deepest canyons and longest channel systems on Earth. Only rivers transport comparable sediment volumes over such large areas; but there are far fewer me... Read More about What determines the downstream evolution of turbidity currents?.

Strongly heterogeneous patterns of groundwater depletion in northwestern India (2021)
Journal Article

Northwestern India has been identified as a significant hotspot of groundwater depletion, with major implications for groundwater sustainability caused by excessive abstraction.

The triggers of the disaggregation of Voyeykov Ice Shelf (2007), Wilkes Land, East Antarctica, and its subsequent evolution (2021)
Journal Article

The weakening and/or removal of floating ice shelves in Antarctica can induce inland ice flow acceleration. Numerical modelling suggests these processes will play an important role in Antarctica's future sea-level contribution, but our understanding...
