Forecasting Cascading and Compounding Flood Risk From Earthquake‐Induced Ground Deformation

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Large earthquakes can disrupt river systems and produce abrupt, unforeseen changes in flood risk. Forward modelling of earthquake‐related surface deformation and its influence on inundation extent, depth, and frequency enables pre‐emptive assessment of exposure to this compound hazard.

Ruins in the Field: Materiality, Spectres and Pluritemporal Encounters of the Oxford University Arctic Expedition

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 4, December 2026.
Short Abstract This paper contributes to conceptual debates on ruins by generating novel insights into how encounters with the haunted materialities of ruins in the field inform (post)colonial trajectories of exploration. Empirically, it examines how material and spectral traces of past lives in the field, alongside play with categories of absence and ...

Community composition, abundance and activity‐density of carabids and staphylinids depend on prey abundance and adjacent habitat even in diverse agricultural landscapes

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10658-10670, November 2026.
Carabid and staphylinid communities are shaped by adjacent habitat type, prey availability and landscape context, influencing natural pest control across agricultural landscapes. Abstract BACKGROUND The functioning of agroecosystems depends on key ecosystem processes that deliver ecosystem services, yet agricultural management has increasingly shifted ...

Urban Infrastructures of Care: Buses as Resources for Recovery and Mental Wellbeing

open access: yesSociology of Health &Illness, Volume 48, Issue 8, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Although transport infrastructures are increasingly recognised as determinants of urban wellbeing, their role in trajectories of becoming well and becoming ill has received little empirical and theoretical attention, particularly in serious mental ill‐health.

New Results From the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic Site of Al Uyaynah, Tabuk, in Northwestern Saudi Arabia

open access: yesArabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 182-206, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Al Uyaynah is a low sandstone mound on an alluvial plain, long known for its extensive surface remains of stone‐built circular and rectangular structures. Following test excavations in 2012, more detailed excavation was undertaken in 2016 within one of the largest rectangular stone structures.

Impact Crater Hydrothermal Systems Support Rapid Microbial Enrichment and Diverse Metabolic Potential

open access: yesGeobiology, Volume 24, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Impact crater hydrothermal systems, formed after asteroid and comet impacts, have been proposed as promising habitats for life on early Earth and as key targets in the search for life on planetary bodies such as Mars, since they provide liquid water and active geochemical turnover.

A Radio Science Experiment for Dragonfly to Investigate Titan's Rotation and Interior Structure

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract NASA's mission Dragonfly to Titan is scheduled for launch in 2028 with arrival in 2034 to study Titan's prebiotic chemistry and habitability. We propose a radio science experiment for Dragonfly, in which radiometric tracking of the rotorcraft from the Deep Space Network, already baselined for communications and navigation, is used as a ...

Acoustic diversity in vineyards is shaped by cover‐crop vegetation structure and row position

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 4, October–December 2026.
We investigated how inter‐row cover crops influence acoustic diversity in vineyards using plant surveys and passive acoustic monitoring. Acoustic diversity was highest at intermediate cover crop heights (~20 cm), highlighting moderate vegetation as a potential management strategy to support birds in vineyards.
