Quantifying the influence of coastal flood hazards on building habitability following Hurricane Irma [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System SciencesAppropriate management of coastal flood risk is critical for creating resilient communities. An important part of this is estimating what buildings will become uninhabitable due to a flood event such as a tropical cyclone.

Habitability of planets in star clusters via interstellar lithopanspermia [PDF]
, 2022 openWe calculate the probability that a life-bearing planetary system in a young star cluster enriches another planetary system in the same cluster. This form of lithopanspermia has so far received little attention.

Determining habitability: which exoEarths should we search for life? [PDF]
, 2010 Within the next few years, the first Earth-mass planets will be discovered around other stars. Some of those worlds will certainly lie within the classical ‘habitable zone’ of their parent stars, and we will quickly move from knowing of no exoEarths to ...

Exploration of Enceladus and Titan: investigating ocean worlds’ evolution and habitability in the Saturn system [PDF]
, 2021 We present a White Paper with a science theme concept of ocean world evolution and habitability proposed in response to ESA’s Voyage 2050 Call with a focus on Titan and Enceladus in the Saturn system.

Digitizing The Warranty of Habitability [PDF]
, 2023 The warranty of habitability was touted fifty years ago as a gamechanger in rebalancing power between tenants and landlords. Under the warranty, a residential tenant’s duty to pay rent is conditioned on a landlord’s obligation to make repairs.
