Estimating the upper limit of prehistoric peak ground acceleration using an in situ, intact and vulnerable stalagmite from Plavecka priepast cave (Detrekoi-zsomboly), Little Carpathians, Slovakia-first results [PDF]

, 2017
Earthquakes hit urban centres in Europe infrequently, but occasionally with disastrous effects. Obtaining an unbiased view of seismic hazard (and risk) is therefore very important.

Climate and Volcanic Activity Modulate Area–Distance Effects on Plant Diversity Along the Temperate–Subarctic Island Volcanic Arc

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims To evaluate how equilibrium (ETIB) and niche‐based (NTIB) island‐biogeography frameworks jointly explain taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity in a temperate–subarctic, volcanically active archipelago. Location Kuril Islands, northwestern Pacific (44°–50° N). Time Period Present. Taxon Vascular plants.

Cluster Policy, Innovation, and Firm Productivity. An Econometric Assessment of the Flemish Spearhead Cluster Program

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, Page 426-444, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The Flemish government launched its Spearhead Cluster (SHC) policy in 2017. The aim is to boost strategic sectors by setting up cluster initiatives which coordinate collaborative R&D initiatives. In this paper, we analyze whether becoming a member of such a cluster initiative has an impact on the Total Factor Productivity (TFP) of the firm. We

A graduated nativeness definition for overcoming dilemmas and difficulties of vascular plant species

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Nativeness is a concept central to biodiversity conservation and invasion biology, but there are several problems related to a classic binary nativeness definition. Dilemmas arise from the dynamic nature of species' distribution ranges on longer time scales, and difficulties arise in the application to smaller regions defined by arbitrary borders, and ...

Runoff Reconstructions and Future Projections Indicate Highly Variable Water Supply From Pacific Rim Water Towers

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Anthropogenic climate change affects regional hydrological cycles and poses significant challenges to the sustainable supply of freshwater. The Central China water tower (CCWT) is the key source region feeding the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, and its runoff is indispensable for the surrounding mega‐city clusters. Here we present a reconstruction
