Mining an Anthropocene in Japan: On the making and work of geological imaginaries

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract This article addresses how the lithic and the drift might be reworked as an Anthropocene material outside of a chronostratigraphy. Revisiting the finding of a floating fern fossil at the Hashima mine, we delve into a complex array of Geological imaginaries, and undertake our own speculative work.

Staged ecologies: Aesthetics, nature and infrastructure in the late‐modern metropolis

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Short Abstract This paper examines the relationship between urban nature and landscape design within a £1.5 billion regeneration project that is currently unfolding in Thamesmead, a town in south‐east London. It develops the notion of ‘staged ecologies’ to examine how urban nature is being spatially and aesthetically arranged across the town's ...

The Once and Future Hydrology Is Whole Earth Hydrology

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract We here argue for a new paradigm to advance pursuit of truth in global freshwater science. Our proposed Whole Earth Hydrology is hydrology that is explicitly empirical and discovery‐based, grounded in primary data, detailed at scale, and incorporates humans as essential.

The Roman Water Management of Arles as Read in Aqueduct Carbonate Archives

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 40, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
ABSTRACT This article reconstructs the complex history of modifications made to the Roman aqueduct of Arelate (Arles), by studying carbonate incrustations in its channels. These deposits, precipitated by flowing water, have preserved an archive of the aqueduct's life‐cycle in their stratigraphy, fabric and stable isotope composition.

Rivers as Natural Capital Assets: A Quick Scoping Review to Assess the Evidence Linking River Asset Condition to Changes in the Flow of Ecosystem Services

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 1207-1227, July 2025.
ABSTRACT River managers are beginning to adopt natural capital approaches in practice. However, while it is crucial for river management, the link between river asset condition and the flow of ecosystem services is poorly understood. In this study, we conducted a Quick Scoping Review (QSR) of the research into river asset condition and ecosystem ...
