Integrating Urban Expansion and Flood Risk: A Spatial Assessment of Impervious Surface Growth and Floodplain Exposure in Mecklenburg County (2011–2021)

open access: yesWorld Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban expansion significantly impacts flood risk, particularly in rapidly growing areas where impervious surfaces exacerbate surface runoff. This study examines spatial patterns of urban growth and their effects on flood exposure in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, from 2011 to 2021.

Our Changing Climate Is Presenting Major Challenges to the Great Lakes Region

open access: yesJAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Earth's climate, including that of North America, is changing rapidly and the corresponding changes in temperature, precipitation, extreme weather, and other effects are accelerating. This changing climate is affecting the region around the Great Lakes and the physical behavior of the Great Lakes themselves, presenting new challenges to ...

Understandings and critiques of biocultural diversity conservation and future recommendations for conservation actors

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract As biocultural approaches to conservation gain traction (e.g., through international commitments to Indigenous Peoples and local communities) and external conservation actors increasingly seek to engage with on‐the‐ground holders of biocultural diversity, improved understanding is needed of what biocultural diversity means.

SWEET1‐mediated glucose transport is crucial for energy availability in Arabidopsis

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1816-1830, February 2026.
Summary The stress‐responsive hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is known for its inhibitory effects on various physiological processes, including seed germination, often resulting in energy deprivation. Interestingly, ABA‐induced germination inhibition can be alleviated by exogenous glucose (Glc), mimicking a functional interplay between ABA and sugar ...

Sobolev and quasiconformal distortion of intermediate dimension with applications to conformal dimension

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 113, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We study the distortion of intermediate dimension under supercritical Sobolev mappings and also under quasiconformal or quasisymmetric homeomorphisms. In particular, we extend to the setting of intermediate dimensions both the Gehring–Väisälä theorem on dilatation‐dependent quasiconformal distortion of dimension and Kovalev's theorem on the ...
