On the undrained shear behavior of sand mixtures with non-plastic fines subjected to large shear displacement Eng. Geol. (IF 7.4) Pub Date : 2024-05-09 Chao Huang, Gonghui Wang
Fluidized landslides pose significant hazards owing to the catastrophic failure and flow-like behavior with high mobility and long traveling distances. Non-plastic fines can be abundant in many fluidized landslides with 30%–40% content of relatively fine-grained particles. However, the role of fine particles in the initiation and movement of these landslides is not well understood. To investigate the

Mapping of highly dynamic changes in land use and land cover (LULC) can be hindered by various cloudy conditions with optical satellite images. These conditions result in discontinuities in high-temporal-density LULC mapping. In this paper, we developed an integrated time series mapping method to enhance the LULC mapping accuracy and frequency in cloud-prone areas by incorporating spectral-indices-fused

Tidal dissipation morphodynamic feedback triggers loss of microtidal marshes Geology (IF 5.8) Pub Date : 2024-05-01 Samuel M. Zapp, Giulio Mariotti
Coastal marsh loss is commonly attributed to changes in external forcings, such as an increase in sea-level rise rate or a reduction in sediment supply. Here we show that extensive marsh loss can be caused by internal mechanisms alone, and specifically by autogenic tidal choking. This occurs when the marsh fills in, increasing tidal dissipation by bed friction and eventually decreasing the tidal range

Bend cutoff is a fundamental process shaping meandering rivers. Despite the widely accepted differentiation between neck and chute cutoffs, a significant knowledge gap persists regarding the factors responsible for the occurrence of each cutoff regime and the specific conditions triggering the regime.

Submarine volcanism along shallow ridges did not drive Cryogenian cap carbonate formation Geology (IF 5.8) Pub Date : 2024-05-01 Adriana Dutkiewicz, R. Dietmar Müller
The termination of Neoproterozoic “Snowball Earth” glaciations is marked globally by laterally extensive neritic cap carbonates directly overlying glacial diamictites. The formation of these unique deposits on deglaciation calls for anomalously high calcium carbonate saturation. A popular mechanism to account for the source of requisite ocean alkalinity is the shallow-ridge hypothesis, in which initial

Subduction initiation is a cornerstone of the Wilson cycle. It marks the turning point in an ocean's lifetime, allowing its lithosphere to be recycled into the mantle. However, formation of new subduction zones in Atlantic-type oceans is challenging, given that it commonly involves the action of an external force, such as the slab pull from a nearby subduction zone, a far-field compression, or the

Rift-Rift-Rift triple junctions are regions where three plates interact, generating complex networks of variably oriented faults. While the geometry of the fault networks is easily constrained from their surface expression, what remains unclear is how the kinematics of faults and their interactions vary spatially, and how these relate to the unusual crustal motions that result from three plates diverging
