Laser bathymetry on rough riverbed channels: State‐of‐the‐art and future prospects

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.
This literature review found that topo‐bathymetric LiDAR has been successfully used to capture the structures of rough riverbeds and detect large boulders. While all of the studies that were reviewed used sensors that were operated from fixed‐wing aircraft, few studies have yet tested UAV‐borne sensors on rough riverbeds, despite the potential offered ...

Beyond our backyard: Unravelling how social‐ecological fit drives the formation of inter‐regional collaborative networks for water governance in the Yellow River Basin

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1852-1868, June 2026.
Abstract The societal and biophysical permeability across human‐demarcated jurisdictions within watersheds necessitates collaboration among administrative regions. The effectiveness of such collaboration is partly determined by the degree to which institutional arrangements align with underlying social and ecological interdependencies, a concept ...

Geographic risks to functional groups of mammals and birds from habitat loss in Mexico

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract There is a need to quantify the impact of habitat loss due to anthropogenic factors on different aspects of biodiversity, such as functional trait diversity represented by functional groups (FGs). We developed a metric to assess the weighted risk of loss of habitat for 33 FGs of mammals and 36 FGs of birds in Mexico based on potential ...

From Forecast to Action: Using Flood Impact Storylines to Optimize Mobile Levee Deployment and Emergency Response Strategies

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Preparing for unprecedented natural hazard events is challenging because the lack of records and experience makes it impossible to know how such events will unfold. Repeated record‐breaking floods in central Europe have increased awareness of the need for proactive planning beyond observed extremes.

Human Response to Postglacial Sea Level Change in Jomon Prehistoric Sites Around Lake Ogawara, Northern Japan

Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Jomon culture, characterized by hunting, gathering, and fishing, lasted from approximately 15.5–2.4 ka in the Japanese archipelago. In this study, the shore of Lake Ogawara in northeastern Japan was investigated using coring, fossil analyses, and radiocarbon dating to reconstruct the palaeoenvironmental changes as well as their ...

Mapping River Bed Topography in Whitewater Rapids Using Bathymetric LiDAR

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 886-900, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Bathymetric LiDAR captures river topography efficiently for clear and shallow water, but for mountain rivers, whitewater rapids still pose challenges. This study proposes a novel method to enable the extraction of bottom returns specifically in turbulent whitewater sections.
