Land, air and water are the most precious resources that sustain life and civilisation. Natural and anthropogenic forces have been and continuously imposing changes on the Earth’s land, air and water systems and biomes and bringing consequences and societal impacts. The complexities of individual and interactive processes of different spherical components and forces in atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, planetary change and paleosciences, so as Earth observations through the lens of sensors on orbits, are among the most amazing challenges that we strive to reveal and understand about the past, present and future of our home planet. We recognise the importance of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research in contributing to improved understanding of the complexity of coupled spherical systems with advancements of science and technology. All Earth invites and welcomes manuscripts in original research, reviews, rapid communications and commentaries in regular and special issues and special collections. The sustainability of our home planet depends upon efforts and actions from all sections of the society. The most recently released Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report imposes a dire warning about the well-being of natural world and humanity with information on concluded irreversible changes. With challenges ahead, it becomes more important and urgent in science communication, evidence-based policy advice and data-driven decision-making, so as implementation of responsible and measurable actions. To this perspective, it is exciting to share that All Earth offers authors the option to publish a secondary abstract, called ‘Key Policy Highlights’, as part of their paper. The optional Key Policy Highlights, with 3–5 bullet points and 100‒150 words, provide authors the opportunity to emphasise the main policy implications of the paper for non-academic and broader scope of audiences. Highlighting the policy relevance will facilitate uptake of original research into decision-making, in particular, in addressing climate crisis and taking actions. The open access nature of All Earth serves well for the connection with societal impacts in information and data sharing. All Earth is committed to support the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for positive societal impact and to provide a platform for reaching policymakers and professionals who are tackling today’s problems. In particular, interests of All Earth are relevant towards improved understanding and implementation of SDGs, such as Good Health & Wellbeing (SDG 3), Clean Water & Sanitation (SDG 6), Sustainable Cities & Commun","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"140 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127127136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lack of data and information at watershed level resulted in different conclusions from trend studies of river flow, sediment yield and crop productivity at a basin scale. There is an opportunity to improve water and land if it can be underpinned by a better scientific understanding of trends of flow, sediment yield and crop production at the basin level. This research is carried out using descriptive statistics, Mann–Kendall (MK) and Pettit’s test to determine the potential trends of river flow, sediment yield and crop productivity using Andit tid watershed case. The result showed that there was high variability of interannual river flow with CV >30%. The Pettitt test showed a significant abrupt change in monthly (March, July, August, September and October) and seasonal (summer and winter) river flow. The Pettitt test result of sediment yield and crop production showed no change. MK test showed a significant (P < 0.05) decreasing trend in March, August, September and October river flow. The other MK values showed no significant trends for all parameters. Researchers should consider representative watershed-based information and data for the analysis and interpretation of large basins.","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124886174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present-day tectono-kinematic framework of the Adriatic and surrounding regions is considered with respect to structural setting of the Central-Northern Apennines, developed as a Pliocene lateral chain relative to the NW-SE Africa-Europe convergence. Within this context, the short-term kinematics of the Adria Plate, characterized by a firm NNE-directed kinematics relative to the stable Europe, seismicity and the crustal structure are taken into account to explain the role of Adria on the kinematics of the Apennine orogenic prism and on the active deformation affecting the retro-belt. In this study, the current central-northern portion of the Adria Plate is considered as dissected into four independent crustal/lithospheric blocks, characterized by distinctive kinematic patterns, structural and seismotectonic characteristics. Notwithstanding the largely debated geodynamic models proposed in the literature, the active interaction among the identified crustal blocks within the framework of the short-term kinematics and seismogenic context of the Adria Plate, characterized by a roto-translational counterclockwise motion, and surrounding orogenic systems is discussed.","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114421246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, an online survey in Greece was conducted to assess the impact of knowledge, worry, experience, and other variables on seismic risk perceptions and to reveal emergency managers’ and first responders’ opinions on the overall emergency mechanism. The results reveal that, while seismic risk perception is high, important knowledge gaps are detected among members of the emergency and crisis management mechanisms. Poor coordination issues, ambiguity in responsibilities, the content of emergency seismic information (beyond uncertainty), and the need to improve prompt warning methods and modernised communication practices are indicated. Key policy highlights As seismic risk perception is high, emergency managers’ and first responders’ knowledge of earthquakes and seismic disasters needs to be improved. Worry is the dominant shaping factor of participants’ seismic risk perception. Participants were highly concerned about the coordination credibility of the crisis communication and management mechanism. Inappropriate allocation of responsibilities, insufficient information, and lack of information clarity are highlighted.","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126108382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study was conducted in south-central Ethiopia to identify LULC change dynamics, and analysis of their driving force using geospatial technology. A supervised maximum likelihood image classification method was employed in combination with the visual interpretation of satellite images to categorise and map LULC classes of the study landscape. Semi-structured interviews, field observations, key informants, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were employed to identify major driving forces, periodic LULC changes and impacts. The classification result showed a considerable decline in forestland from (43.1%) in 1973 to (13.1%) in 2000. Similarly, grasslands declined from (45.5%) in 1973 to (6.3%) in 2018. On the other hand, cropland has increased from (9.24%) in 1973 to (32.04%) in 1986 likewise between 2000 and 2018 its coverage was augmented from 45.4% to 51.1%, respectively. . Local communities perceived population growth, settlement, urbanisation, expansion of farmlands, and fuel wood collection as dominant drivers of LULC changes in the study area in thewatershed. The respondents also observed that the decline in forest LULC triggered the loss of biodiversity, soil fertility, and water availability. Hence, local and national regimes must take adequate measures to minimise the rapid shift in land use and to balance the protection of the human livelihood with the environment.","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122601279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Orogenic gold mineralisation shows weak exploration signals on the surface that can challenge exploration geologists. This study investigates the ability of a MPM method called evidential belief functions (EBFs) to identify a local orogenic gold mineralisation in the Godaesorkh gold deposit, north of Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (Central Iran). Several evidential layers such as geological, structural, geophysical, remote sensing, and geochemical layers were generated by applying various processing methods. These layers are integrated to attain a MPM by applying the EBFs based on Dempster-Shafer’s rules. Precise selection of evidential layers and higher number of known mineral occurrences may lead to a higher degree of belief in the mineral prospectivity map. Accordingly, high probability values were correlated with the gold mineralisation in the study area, and three separate areas were identified as promising with N40E and N15W trends. It is concluded that the orogenic gold mineralisation occurred in shear zones, which is mainly controlled by tectonic structures. Consequently, analysing these structures can be considered as a key feature for identifying potential orogenic gold mineralisation zones in the study area.","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"15 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120808040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This manuscript presents a data-driven approach with a random forest algorithm to estimate the projected area, length, travel distance, and width of landslides, using elevation and slope information. The method is tested for two different study areas (Idukki and Wayanad), using three different combinations of inputs. The input features considered were elevation ( ), tangential slope ( ), drop height ( ), angle of reach ( ) and the profile curvature ( ). A total of 144 models were considered and were evaluated using mean-absolute-error ( ) and root-mean-square-error (RMSE) values. The results indicate that, by using E and θ alone, the value in estimating the length values for flow-like landslides in Wayanad was reduced from 472.74 m to 204.64 m. Out of the 48 combinations considered, values have increased in seven cases and values in eight cases only. The pre-trained models are saved and used to develop an easy-to-use tool, which can bypass the complications associated with the existing statistical approaches. The tool can be used by untrained personnel for preliminary hazard assessment.","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126197053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The land subsidence in Wuhan, China, was inferred from 47 Sentinel-1A images acquired between June 2015 to October 2020 based on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Interferometric Point Target Analysis (IPTA) technology. Results show that significant subsidence mainly occurred in Houhu, Qinshan, Baishazhou, and Zhuankou areas, and the most significant subsidence occurred in Baishazhou, reaching an annual subsidence rate of 41.0 mm/a with accumulated subsidence of 219.4 mm., The subsidence was more significant in the carbonate solution zone with the overlying Holocene strata compared to the rest carbonate karst belts. Analysis shows thatland building construction is a major reason for land subsidence in Wuhan. The construction of subway underground stations is another factor causing land subsidence. The effect of water level fluctuations of the Yangtze River on long-term trends is negligible. Our study provides further insight into the temporal-spatial pattern of Wuhan’s displacements and suggests that the land subsidence should be continuously monitored for alleviation of potential destructive hazards, especially during the period of construction of a land building, such as residential, public facilities, and subway.","PeriodicalId":238835,"journal":{"name":"All Earth","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124475427","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
