Meta‐Study of Carbonate Sediment Delivery Rates to Indo‐Pacific Coral Reef Islands
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2024-02-28)Coral reef islands are amongst the most vulnerable environments to sea-level rise (SLR). Recent physical and numerical modeling studies have demonstrated that overwash processes may enable reef islands to keep up with SLR ... -
Novel use of portable gamma sensors to rapidly assess soil status and recovery in degraded East African agro-pastoral land
(Copernicus PublicationsEGU General Assembly 2024, Vienna, 2024-04-16)Soil resources in East African agro-pastoral lands are being rapidly depleted by erosion, threatening food, water and livelihood security. Here we explore the utility of innovation in portable gamma sensors to rapidly ... -
Coastal shoreline change assessments at global scales
(Springer Science and Business Media LLCEngland, 2024)ARISING FROM R. Almar et al. Nature Communications https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-023-38742-9 (2023) -
Physics‐Informed Neural Networks to Model and Control Robots: A Theoretical and Experimental Investigation
(Wiley, 2024)This work concerns the application of physics‐informed neural networks to the modeling and control of complex robotic systems. Achieving this goal requires extending physics‐informed neural networks to handle nonconservative ... -
Two-buoy and single-buoy floating wave energy converters: A numerical comparison
(Elsevier BV, 2024-06)A numerical model of two-buoy and single-buoy floating wave energy converters (WECs) is developed based on a modified nonlinear version of WEC-Sim. The model is validated against experimental data from a 1:5 geometric ... -
The architecture and evolution of shallow water delta mouth bars: examples from the Lower Cretaceous of Spain
(Copernicus PublicationsEGU General Assembly 2021, 2021-04-28)Improved understanding of delta mouth bar morphodynamics, and the resulting stratigraphic architectures, is important for predicting the loci of deposition of different sediment fractions, coastal geomorphic change and ... -
On crashworthiness and energy-absorbing mechanisms of hygrothermal-aged CFRP structures subjected to quasi-static loads
(Informa UK Limited, 2024-01-01)Understanding the gradual performance degradation of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) is critical for the design of engineering structures that are expected to be affected by hygrothermal environments. This study ... -
Taking sides? Aspect has limited influence on soil environment or litter decomposition in pan-European study of roadside verges
(Elsevier BV, 2024-01)In addition to well-known effects on species ecophysiology, phenology, and distributions, climate change is widely predicted to impact essential ecosystem services such as decomposition and nutrient cycling. While temperature ... -

Leveraging Spatial Metadata in Machine Learning for Improved Objective Quantification of Geological Drill Core
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2024-03)Here we present a method for using the spatial x–y coordinate of an image cropped from the cylindrical surface of digital 3D drill core images and demonstrate how this spatial metadata can be used to improve unsupervised ...
