Landsystems of the tropical high Peruvian Andes: Glaciers, lakes, wetlands and water resources in the Cordillera Vilcanota

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
We outline the geomorphological relationships between glaciers, lakes and bofedal wetlands, and the way in which moraines, talus slopes and sandar interact with catchment hydrology in the tropical Andes of Peru. Bofedales are well developed within glacial limits, with glacial processes such as erosion and formation of moraines providing the poorly ...

Geomorphological mapping of the Becca d'Aver deep‐seated gravitational slope deformation (Aosta Valley, Italy) based on multi‐scale and multi‐sensor analysis

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
Geomorphological characterization of the DsGSD enables us to identify the sources of sediment that could be mobilized as debris flows. In the area, pseudo‐badlands morphotype has been defined and mapped, representing the main sources of risk beside abandoned quarry deposits.

Wood restoration results in rapid conversion of a degraded plane‐bed channel, Little River, Washington

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
The authors document that wood restoration can rapidly and positively affect a number of geomorphic variables to improve habitat conditions for Pacific salmon. Abstract The loss of instream wood can create a legacy of channel incision that is detrimental to habitat formation.

2025 U.S. Geological Survey National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands: Overview of Model and Hazard Results

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
The U.S. Geological Survey recently updated the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). The first version of the PRVI NSHM was released in 2003, and therefore this 2025 update includes over 20 years of new geologic, geophysical, and engineering data, methods, and models.

Narrative Horizons: Deliberate Derangement in Oceanic Climate Fiction

open access: yesFuture Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Although we live in the Anthropocene—the geological age of humankind, wherein humans have measurably impacted the biosphere—we struggle to narrate the Anthropocene. In particular, we struggle to give narrative shape to its foremost feature: anthropogenic climate change.

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

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, 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 ...

Land Cover Change Drives River Flow Modifications in Central Chile

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study examines the combined effects of land cover change and ENSO on streamflow dynamics in four coastal catchments of central Chile, using a 45‐year (1979–2023) dataset of remote sensing and hydroclimatic data. Conclusions Native forest loss reduced summer flows and PP–Q relationship; preserved forests enhanced resilience.
