Avian Infrastructures: Urban Experiments and the Makings of a Seabird ‘Hotel’
The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract The paper focuses on the relationship between infrastructure, animal architectures and avian geographies to explore the development of ‘kittiwake hotels’—artificial nesting structures for black‐legged kittiwakes. Drawing on a collaboration between cultural geography and marine ecology that moves between the United Kingdom and Norway, the

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT The reliability of flood event simulations is a crucial aspect in terms of saving lives. The worst flood scenarios derive from possible dam failures. For earthen dams, the breaching mechanism, triggered by overtopping or piping, is affected by several modelling uncertainties, which propagate downstream and may influence flood hazard mapping ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1467-1487, May 2026.ABSTRACT This study quantifies the influence of alkali‐silica reaction (ASR) on the seismic fragility of prestressed concrete containment structures in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Global collapse was considered as the governing failure mode to maintain consistency with current risk assessment frameworks, and was captured using a finite element model ...
