Fractals and chaos in geology and geophysics

This book introduces the fundamental concepts of fractal geometry and chaotic dynamics. These concepts are then related to a variety of geological and geophysical problems, illustrating just what chaos theory and fractals really tell us and...

Spectral analysis in geophysics

Comparison of the GOSAT TANSO-FTS TIR CH volume mixing ratio vertical profiles with those measured by ACE-FTS, ESA MIPAS, IMK-IAA MIPAS, and 16 NDACC stations

The primary instrument on the Greenhouse gases Observing SATellite (GOSAT) is the Thermal And Near infrared Sensor for carbon Observations (TANSO) Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS). TANSO-FTS uses three short-wave infrared (SWIR) band...

A novel method for imitating true-triaxial stress path with conventional triaxial apparatus

Abstract The stress paths of the cylindrical specimen in the p–q stress space by controlling the ratio of the axial and the radial loading is guaranteed to be consistent with the cuboid specimen, a novel method for imitating true-triaxial s...

Automated Burris gravity meter for single and continuous observation

The Burris Gravity Meter™ manufactured by ZLS Corporation, Austin/Texas, USA, is based on the invention of L&R (L. LaCoste and A. Romberg): The ZLS (zero-length spring). A digital feedback system (range of about 50 mGal) is used to null the...

Terrestrial Remote Sensing of Snowmelt in a Diverse High-Arctic Tundra Environment Using Time-Lapse Imagery

Snow cover is one of the crucial factors influencing the plant distribution in harsh Arctic regions. In tundra environments, wind redistribution of snow leads to a very heterogeneous spatial distribution which influences growth conditions f...

Assessment of climate change impact on wheat crop using MarkSim GCM in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh

GFLD-CM3 model was used to generate weather data under RCPs scenario i.e. RCP 2.6, 4.5, 6.0 and 8.5 for years 2010, 2035, 2065 and 2095 for Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. The generated data were used to assess the impact of climate change on phen...

The Integrity and Tightness of Underground Hydrogen Storage Systems: A Critical Review of Geological Barriers, Well Sealing, Leakage Risks and Future Perspectives

Underground storage of green hydrogen is a strategic enabler of large-scale renewable deployment, but its feasibility rests on a hard problem: keeping a small, highly mobile molecule confined underground for decades without safety or enviro...

Water Tank Experiments on Stratified Flow over Double Mountain-Shaped Obstacles at High-Reynolds Number

In this article, we present an overview of the HyIV-CNRS-SecORo (Hydralab IV-CNRS-Secondary Orography and Rotors Experiments) laboratory experiments carried out in the CNRM (Centre National de Recherches Météorologiques) large stratified wa...

top-ii-vol: Massively Parallel Scalable Meshing for Seismic Risk Assessment of Nuclear Sites

High performance computing is widely used for conducting high-resolution geophysics Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations. These simulations are crucial for risk assessment at nuclear sites and help gain deeper insights into underlying ph...

THE OVERVIEW OF THE PLANETARY ATMOSPHERIC SPECTRAL TELESCOPE (PAST) IN THE SCIENTIFIC EXPERIMENTAL SYSTEM IN NEAR-SPACE (SENSE)

To investigate mass transport and energy dissipation in space environments for solar system planet, a balloon-borne planetary atmospheric spectral telescope (PAST) is designed with 0.8-m aperture in spectral range from 280 nm to 680&...

Crustal rheology controls on the Tibetan plateau formation during India-Asia convergence

Tibetan plateau deformation is variable, but what controls those variations is still poorly understood. Here, the authors use 3D numerical models to show that the variations observed in lithosphere deformation are controlled by heterogeneit...

Distribution and Abundance of Solar Wind‐Derived Water in Chang'E‐5 Core Samples and Its Implications

Abstract Knowledge regarding the abundance and distribution of solar wind (SW)‐sourced water (OH/H2O) on the Moon in the shallow subsurface remains limited. Here, we report the NanoSIMS measurements of H abundances and D/H ratios on soil gr...

Temporal and Spatial Analysis of Coastal Landscape Patterns Using the GEE Cloud Platform and Landsat Time Series

Owing to the rapid urbanization combined with global climate change, dramatic land-use change in coastal watersheds is occurred, which, in turn, cause the evolution of landscape patterns and threaten the valuable but fragile ecosystem. The ...

The mechanism of excavation-induced rockbursts in ultra-thick soft-hard composite coal seams at shallow depths: an experimental study

Abstract Ultra-thick soft-hard (UTSH) composite coal seams, composed of alternating layers of soft and hard coal, frequently experience severe rockburst accidents during roadway excavation under shallow burial depths (...
