Fostering Peat Moss Feedbacks to Accelerate Peatland Restoration

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
Alternative stable states and peat moss and vascular plant feedbacks in peatlands. Selected feedbacks in a peat moss‐dominated state or a vascular plant‐dominated state. The two insets show ecosystem states (dot) in resilience landscapes (bottom).

How (In)Visibility Shapes Women's Experience of Inequity in Prison Work: A Cooperative Inquiry With Women Working in Australian Men's Prisons

Gender, Work &Organization, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 429-439, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Research shows that women working in men's prisons face both scrutiny and exclusion within a high‐risk, masculinized occupational culture. Addressing a gap in theorizing the processes involved, this article explores the interplay of gender, visibility, and power through a poststructuralist‐informed thematic analysis of data from 16 women ...

Flood Risk Assessment of Urban Critical Infrastructures Using Crowd‐Sourced and Open Data on Hazard, Exposure and Vulnerability

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Worldwide, cities rely on the proper functioning of critical infrastructures (CIs) such as electricity, telecommunication, water supply and transportation. Failure of those infrastructures can lead to significant and long‐lasting impacts, even far beyond the flooded areas due to cascading effects.

Mechanical Modeling and Application of Frost Heaving Damage to Assembled Concrete Rectangular Canals in Seasonally Frozen Soil Region

Advances in Civil Engineering
In the design and upkeep of canals in areas of seasonal permafrost, resistance to frost heave is a critical factor for ensuring the stability of water conveyance canals. Mechanical modeling is the key to frost heaving-resistant design. In this study, the

Effects of horizontal and three-dimensional reinforcement on frost-heaving and thawing-settlement in seasonally frozen soils

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
The frost heaving and thaw-induced settlement is the primary causes of structural damage in the areas with seasonally frozen soils. Practical applications have demonstrated that the roadbeds reinforced with geosynthetic materials exhibit excellent ...

Assessment of Frost Depth and Frost Heave in Romania

Applied Sciences
The investigation of extreme weather and climate events has gained momentum in the last few decades, spurred in part by political involvement. However, not enough attention has been paid to the historical recorded data of climate monitoring. An accurate estimate of maximum soil frost depth is an important factor in determining construction costs and ...

Frost-heaving in soils

, 1966
A literature survey shows that present interest in frost action research is focused on thermodynamic properties of the ice-water interface. This aspect of the freezing process is a fascinating field for research and much progress is being made, but there are many other equally important aspects, when ice-lensing is involved in the freezing process.
