The paper by Leger et al. presents a large-scale reconstruction of glacial sediment transport in the Alps, offering both novel insights and a versatile computational framework for investigating glacial processes at Quaternary time scales. The study's relevance spans paleo-glacier dynamics, sediment transport, and landscape evolution in alpine environments, making it highly valuable to geomorphologists, glacial geologists, and sedimentologists, as well as applied sectors. The developed model has the potential to unlock numerous key research questions relating to past and present glacier behavior.

Hulskemper et al. report on a data-driven investigation and predictive modelling of Earth surface dynamics captured by high-resolution 4D remote sensing datasets. Their study shows how to integrate massive remote sensing observations to increase our process understanding in coastal morphodynamic research.
