Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Quantifying Multidimensional Effects in Linear Site Response Using 1D and 2D Simulations of Sedimentary Basins in Wellington, New Zealand

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
This study quantifies the influence of multidimensional effects on site response in the Wellington region of New Zealand by comparing results from different simulation approaches. Response‐spectral amplification functions from 1D and 2D site response analyses are compared to quantify the magnitude and spatial distribution of multidimensional effects ...

Nonstationary Spatial Correlation of Earthquake Ground Motions in California

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Assessing seismic risk to spatially distributed infrastructure systems requires realistic representations of spatially correlated ground motions. Existing models for the spatial correlations of ground motions rely on strong second‐order stationarity assumptions, under which the correlation structure is assumed to be invariant across space, potentially ...

Assessments of Liquefaction Triggering and Manifestation at Three Case History Sites in Napier Based on 1931 Hawke's Bay, New Zealand, Earthquake

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
The 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake (∼MS 7.8) stands as one of New Zealand's most devastating, causing widespread liquefaction and damage across the city of Napier. However, Napier remains underrepresented in liquefaction hazard studies as compared to other regions in the country.

Seismic Assessment Procedure for Exterior Reinforced Concrete Beam–Column Joints With Slab and Transverse Beams

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 8, Page 1655-1674, 10 July 2026.
ABSTRACT This article presents a capacity‐based assessment procedure for beam–column (b–c) joints of reinforced concrete frames with floor slabs and transverse beams. The procedure extends a previously proposed assessment methodology for determining the hierarchy of strengths and the sequence of events in symmetrically reinforced planar b–c joints.
