Can Flash Flood Risk Index Be an Early Warning Signal of Flash Floods in Ungauged Basin?

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Flash flooding is amongst the most severe natural hazards, causing widespread socioeconomic impacts across both wet regions and drylands. In ungauged mountainous basins, effective risk warning based on hydrodynamic modelling is challenging due to sparse hydrological observations and complex terrain.

Flood Risk Communications Through Maps: Challenges, Perception Theories and Approaches

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Flood risk communication is a core component of flood risk management, yet persistent challenges limit its effectiveness in supporting public understanding, preparedness and adaptive behaviour. Here, we examine flood risk maps as communication tools at the interface of scientific modelling, visual design, and human risk perception.

Assessment of Vehicle Stability Processes Under Unsteady Flow Conditions

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The vehicle stability criteria are based on experimental and theoretical studies that do not account for the unsteady nature of floods. The rapid variation of depths and velocities in floods causes an additional hydrodynamic force in the direction of the flow, destabilising a vehicle that would otherwise be safe in steady flow conditions. This

Optimisation of Temporary and Demountable Flood Protection for Infrastructure Resilience

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Infrastructure systems provide crucial services to human settlements. Extreme weather events, especially flooding, can disrupt these vital services. Temporary and demountable flood protections (TDFPs) are increasingly used to protect infrastructure assets and provide resilience.

Along the Silenced Footsteps of Latin American Pastoralists: From Mexico to Argentina, a Journey Through Pastoral Systems in Latin America

The Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 31, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Pastoralism worldwide faces a complex landscape of increased pressures and exclusion. Beyond ecological and economic challenges, pastoralists suffer eroding cultural identity, limited generational renewal, and political marginalization. Yet pastoral livelihoods are increasingly recognized as stewards of sustainable futures and amongst the best

Resilience and vulnerabilities of urban food environments in the Asia‐Pacific region

Maternal &Child Nutrition, Volume 22, Issue 1, March 2026.
This paper highlights the dynamic changes in urban food environments in the Asia Pacific. Whilst modern retail food outlets are increasing, wet markets and informal food outlets, including street foods, continue to play an important role in nutrition and food security.
