Global warming-induced melting and thawing of the cryosphere are severely altering the
volume and timing of water supplied from High Mountain Asia, adversely affecting …

Rapid atmospheric warming since the mid-twentieth century has increased temperature-
dependent erosion and sediment-transport processes in cold environments, affecting food …

An estimated 23 million people live on floodplains affected by potentially dangerous
concentrations of toxic waste derived from past and present metal mining activity. We …

Mountain uplift and erosion have regulated the balance of carbon between Earth's interior
and atmosphere, where prior focus has been placed on the role of silicate mineral …

Submarine turbidity currents form the largest sediment accumulations on Earth, raising the
question of their role in global carbon cycles. It was previously inferred that terrestrial …

Volcanic eruptions on land create hot and fast pyroclastic density currents, triggering
tsunamis or surges that travel over water where they reach the ocean. However, no field …

The principal nature-based solution for offsetting relative sea-level rise in the Ganges-
Brahmaputra delta is the unabated delivery, dispersal, and deposition of the rivers'~ 1 billion …

Event stratigraphy is used to help characterise the Anthropocene as a chronostratigraphic
concept, based on analogous deep-time events, for which we provide a novel …

Here we show how major rivers can efficiently connect to the deep-sea, by analysing the
longest runout sediment flows (of any type) yet measured in action on Earth. These seafloor …

Under the influences of global climate change and intense human activities, the hydrological
and biogeochemical processes have been undergoing profound changes in most of the …
