Geomorphology of the mouth of the Arosa estuary (Coruña-Pontevedra, Spain)

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2017
This paper presents a geomorphological analysis of the littoral zone of the Arosa-Pontevedra estuary mouth and identifies geomorphological units and categorizes them into morphogenetic systems.

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Low Hazard–High Risk: A Case Study of the Active Mangatangi Fault

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Activity on low deformation rate faults are challenging to quantify and comparatively understudied. One such fault, the Mangatangi Fault, strikes NE‐SW along the southeastern flanks of the Hunua Ranges c. 52 km south of New Zealand's most populous city, Auckland.

Glacial geomorphology of the Brabazon & Butler Downs, Rangitata Valley, South Island, New Zealand

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2017
The inland valleys of New Zealand’s South Island were heavily glaciated during the last glacial cycle. Subsequent fluvial incision has eroded out glacial deposits from the valleys in many locations, making it difficult to reconstruct glacial dynamics and

Pleistocene and Holocene Mobility of Detrital Platinum in Southern New Zealand: Review and Regional Synthesis

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Detrital platinum group minerals (PGM) are rare and distinctive in Pleistocene–Holocene sedimentary systems of the southern South Island, thereby enabling tracking of their long‐distance transport for ∼200 km. The first ∼100 km of transport involved Pleistocene glaciofluvial processes southwards down the Waiau River, where PGM (principally Pt–Fe and Ru–

Regulatory Framework and Public Policies for Sustainability in the Construction Sector

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 3229-3248, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study analyzes the role of public policies in promoting socially responsible practices in the construction sector, with a particular focus on their contribution to climate neutrality and the decarbonization of the building stock. European agreements exert increasing pressure to transform the construction sector, reinforcing the transition

Late‐Stage Debris Flows Eroded Aeolis Mons in Gediz Vallis, Gale Crater, Mars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract How the ancient climate of Mars transitioned to its current cold, hyperarid state is recorded by the sedimentary rocks preserved on its surface. Gale crater, the Curiosity rover landing site, is one such location, where the central mountain, Aeolis Mons, preserves an extensive sedimentary record. Curiosity has demonstrated that the Aeolis Mons

Modeling the Anthropogenic Effects on Watershed Evolution Trajectory: An Example From the Chestatee River in Northern Georgia, USA

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Human activities shape erosion dynamics and landscape evolution, making effective modeling approaches essential for understanding these impacts. This study utilizes landscape evolution models with a streamlined parameterization process to evaluate the anthropogenic effects on the erosional trajectory of the Chestatee River watershed in ...

Controls on Valley‐Floor Width in the Western Andes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract River‐valley floors are low relief, confined parts of the landscape that store sediment en route from mountains to lowlands. Transient sediment storage influences sediment budgets, biogeochemical cycles, and the preservation of environmental signals. The controls on valley‐floor width remain poorly understood, limiting the ability to reproduce

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...
