Sensitivity of 3D Base‐Isolated Buildings to Individual Isolator Variability

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2653-2668, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Variability in elastomeric isolators arises from differences in rubber formulation and curing, leading to noticeable changes in stiffness and damping among nominally identical bearings. While most previous studies have examined global isolator variability associated with environmental or aging effects, individual isolator variability has ...

Sedimentary lycopane/n‐C31 ratio as a proxy for bottom water hypoxia in coastal ocean

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Bottom‐water hypoxia on continental shelves is intensifying under climate change and eutrophication, yet long‐term records remain scarce. Here we show that the sedimentary lycopane/n‐C31 ratio reliably records bottom‐water oxygenation in the seasonally hypoxic Yangtze River Estuary.

Political Animals: To Live & Die in More‐Than‐Human Worlds

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 3, Page 660-667, September 2026.
ABSTRACT What does it mean to live—and therefore die—in a more‐than‐human world? This review essay explores that question through reflections on teaching Political Animals: Species, Class, Race, and Gender, an undergraduate course that introduces students to scholarship on human‐nonhuman relations.

Precarious Development: Climate Crisis and Hydrosocial Futures in the Punjab Canal Colonies

The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 3, September 2026.
Short Abstract This essay traces the history of the hydrosocial arrangement in Pakistan's Punjab province to reveal how colonial and postcolonial irrigation infrastructural development set up the present moment of crisis instead of enduring development.

Comprehensive Analysis for the Evaluation of Torrential Floods and Slope Stability of River Channels: La China River Area (Colombia)

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Colombia and other tropical regions face a very high threat from torrential floods, which have resulted in over 25,000 deaths in a single event. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive assessment methodology to zone and determine the magnitude of these disasters; therefore, this research aims to help fill this gap.

Discriminating Arid Ecosystems and Tracking Desertification Dynamics: Evidence From Grain‐Size End‐Member in the Manas River Basin, Northern Tianshan Mountains

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10174-10186, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecosystem of the Manas River Basin, composed of mountains, oases, and deserts, constitutes an ideal natural laboratory for investigating surface processes and environmental evolution in arid regions. Elucidating the provenance, transport dynamics, and climate response mechanisms of surface sediments in this system is critical for advancing

Multi‐Scale Pathways to Integrated Protection and Restoration of Mountains, Rivers, Forests, Farmlands, Lakes, and Grasslands in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area: A Social‐Ecological Systems Perspective

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10546-10565, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Human activities have intensified eco‐environmental problems, challenging harmonious human‐nature interactions. However, existing integrated protection and restoration (IPR) zoning approaches for mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, and grasslands (MRFFLG) focus on a single scale and fail to incorporate the ecological network (EN) and

Seismic Exploration for Magmatic Brine Lenses: An Example From Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract The majority of metallic ore deposits are related to processes associated with ancient or modern volcanic systems. Beyond geothermal energy production, volcanoes also represent a potential resource of critical metals, including those required for carbon‐neutral technologies. Geothermal metals occur in subsurface fluid reservoirs fed by surface

Dike‐Induced Earthquakes as Probes of the Local Stress Field Prior to the 1998 Eruption of the Piton de la Fournaise Volcano, La Réunion

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Volcano‐tectonic (VT) earthquakes generated during dike propagation provide useful constraints on stress changes in volcanic systems. During the 1998 pre‐eruptive unrest at Piton de la Fournaise, ∼600 VT earthquakes were recorded. Using manually picked first‐motion polarities and corrected station metadata, we calculated more than 400 high ...
