Over recent years, the emergence of the offshore wind sector has spurred much interest in subsea cables. The predominant failure modes of subsea cables are associated with extreme environmental conditions. Wave-forcing during severe storms is less expected and causes more damage. A generalized multiphysics cable model is constructed to predict the movement, damage, and lifetime of subsea cables subject to dynamic wave and curr...

Global hydroclimatic variability is increasing with more frequent extreme dry and wet years, severely destabilizing terrestrial ecosystem productivity. However, what regulates the consequence of precipitation extremes on productivity remains unclear. Based on a 9‐year field manipulation experiment on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau, we found that the responses of gross primary productivity (GPP) to extreme drought and wetness were...
