This study employs the Method of Splitting Tsunami (MOST) to simulate nine Mw 8.7 earthquake scenarios along the Sunda Megathrust, revealing that extreme events could inundate up to 16.85 square kilometers of Denpasar City with depths exceeding 14 meters, thereby providing critical data for optimizing evacuation routes, shelter placement, and building retrofitting.
This study utilizes U-Pb geochronology and clumped isotope thermometry on beef calcite veins near the Butler Salt Dome to demonstrate that two distinct episodes of precipitation occurred at elevated temperatures driven by the salt dome's thermal anomaly, utilizing meteoric fluids and reflecting episodic overpressure fracturing within a continuous matrix cementation history.
This paper proposes a specialized Methane Management System (MMS), grounded in ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 frameworks, to transform methane mitigation from fragmented technical fixes into a comprehensive, organization-wide strategy that drives emission reductions, operational efficiency, and long-term climate resilience across the oil and gas value chain.
This study utilizes Hungarian incident-level data to demonstrate that rising temperatures significantly increase workplace accident risks, particularly for temporary and part-time workers in diverse sectors beyond traditional outdoor industries, while also revealing a cumulative effect of heat fatigue over the course of a shift.
This 2025 study analyzes the composition and generation of municipal solid waste in Bahawalpur, Pakistan, to identify recycling opportunities and recommend data-driven strategies—such as source segregation, composting, and biogas production—for transitioning toward a circular economy and reducing landfill dependency.
This study analyzes the spatiotemporal patterns and driving factors of urban vitality in the linear river-valley city of Lanzhou, revealing that while vitality clusters centrally and fluctuates by time, it is primarily driven by transportation and functional facilities rather than proximity to the Yellow River.
This study utilizes Landsat imagery and machine learning to analyze Kinshasa's urbanization from 2001 to 2024, revealing a rapid, centrifugal expansion of built-up areas and croplands at the expense of forests and savannahs, which has significantly intensified landscape anthropization and underscores the urgent need for improved urban planning and ecosystem protection.
This study establishes a pre-mining ecohydrological baseline for bauxite deposits in Minas Gerais, revealing that while current soil conditions remain viable, unregulated water withdrawals and a critical inverse relationship between soil mechanical resistance and infiltration capacity pose severe risks to spring flow and water security, necessitating rigorous rehabilitation strategies for future mining operations.
This study evaluates three blasthole drill cuttings sampling methods in a Uruguayan limestone quarry, finding that while the radial sampler offers the highest analytical accuracy against a full cone control, the single-insertion cylindrical tube provides the best balance of operational viability for continuous cement production.
This study evaluates the heavy metal pollution status of Nworie River in Southeastern Nigeria, finding that while most metals are within WHO standards, elevated levels of lead and iron due to dredging activities, combined with high ecological risk factors for mercury, indicate significant adverse pollution requiring immediate monitoring and waste management interventions.
