New research shows that crops are far more vulnerable when too much rainfall originates from land rather than the ocean. Land-sourced moisture leads to weaker, less reliable rainfall, heightening ...

Storm forecasting is traditionally based on studying atmospheric conditions but ground-breaking research that also looks at land surface conditions is set to transform early warning systems in ...

This research experimentally investigates how rainfall infiltration and earthquake shaking interact to trigger liquefaction and permanent ground deformation in slopes composed of granular soils. While ...
