Low‐Income, Minority‐Serving Public Schools in Southern California Have Disproportionately High Surface Temperatures

GeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Extensive evidence demonstrates that people from minority backgrounds often face unequal exposure to extreme heat and have less access to green space that can provide cooling relief. What is less clear is whether these inequities extend to students on school playgrounds, where high temperatures can affect physical health, social and emotional ...

Novel Parameterization of Building Storage Heat Flux for Urban Climate Modeling

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Accurate estimation of building heat storage flux (ΔQS) is essential for modeling the urban surface energy balance and urban climates. The Objective Hysteresis Model (OHM) is a computationally efficient scheme that uses coefficients (a1, a2, a3) that can be derived from standard thermal parameters for heat conduction.

The Outsiders: Principled Withdrawal, Whiteness, and Power in the Los Angeles Food Justice Movement

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 445-455, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This article draws on understandings of whiteness and the misconstrual of South Central Los Angeles to analyze the power dynamics between “outsider” activists and residents of South Central as they worked toward a more equitable food system.

Native Community Resistance Mediates Plant Invasion Responses to Global Change Along Mediterranean Mountain Roads

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate warming, human modification and global connectivity are eroding the abiotic barriers (i.e., climatic filtering and low propagule pressure) that have traditionally limited the spread of non‐native species in mountain ecosystems. Meanwhile, these global changes are also reshaping native plant communities, potentially weakening their ...

X Marks the Spot: Continuities of Colonial Spatial Exploitation in Luanshya, Zambia

The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 3, September 2026.
Short Abstract This essay illustrates how a golf course serves as a site for continuities of colonial spatial exploitation in Luanshya, Zambia. In this discussion, we see how the ongoing neoliberal practices of privatisation enable conditions for extraction from cities that suffer state neglect and explores narratives of resistance.
