A Machine Learning Framework for Assessing Systemic Societal Vulnerability to Coastal Flooding

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Vulnerability indices are increasingly used to understand why coastal urban communities experience differential flood impacts. However, they are criticised for subjective indicator selection, weighting and aggregation, which rely on researcher judgement and rarely integrate uncertainty.

Writing Big in Plant Genomes: Advances, Challenges and Strategies for Targeted Large‐Fragment DNA Insertion

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 6506-6520, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Precise genome editing has transformed plant biology and crop improvement by enabling targeted modification of endogenous loci. Beyond gene knockout and base editing, the site‐specific insertion of exogenous DNA, particularly large DNA fragments, has become a central goal for engineering complex traits, reconstructing metabolic pathways and ...

Geographies of Inequalities: Towards Just Places

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In this intervention, I introduce the theme for the RGS‐IBG 2026 Annual Conference and argue that the complex geographies of inequalities are a key focus of the discipline and that the current moment requires urgent attention to be given to addressing such issues.

NOx and HCHO in Hot Extremes Observed From Space and Their Influences on Urban Populations: A Case Study in Houston, TX (USA)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Hot extremes have increased globally and on a regional scale. Traditional data processing methods to understand air quality changes in hot extremes may not adequately describe variations in directly emitted air pollutants like nitrogen oxides (NOx) or volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and their influence on secondary species such as ozone (O3).
