Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation
Sustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 6512-6531, September 2026.ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.

Recent developments in asphalt techniques for hydraulic applications in the Netherlands
, 1965 Since 1945 and particularly after the flood in 1953 new means were developed to accelerate the construction of hydraulic engineering projects in the Netherlands. This development was initially related to paving sand dikes with durable materials.

River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

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.
