The Challenges of Domestic Wastewater/Sewage Systems for Māori Communities

open access: yesKōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
The development of domestic wastewater systems in contemporary Aotearoa New Zealand has presented a significant challenge for Māori communities. While those communities have supported attempts to address the pollution of land and waterways through modern treatment methods, the solution has included continuing discharges of sometimes untreated and often

Evaluating the sustainability of mineral water consumption using multi‐scale hydrogeophysics in Caxambu, Brazil

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 234-251, June 2026.
Abstract A better understanding of the near‐surface aquifer system of the Caxambu Water Park, located in the Minas Gerais State, Brazil, has been achieved. The study aimed to identify groundwater reservoirs and flow patterns and contribute to the hydrogeological conceptual model using a multi‐scale geophysical approach.

A Comparative Study of Context‐Aware Modeling Approaches for Specific Heat Load Profiles for Residential Consumers in District Heating Simulations

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate, time‐resolved heat load profiles are essential for realistic district heating simulations, enabling optimized network operation and long‐term transformation planning. In this work, we systematically evaluate modeling approaches for generating such profiles, comparing data‐driven methods (e.g., regression and machine learning) with ...

Interconnection, Obligation, Solar Power, and the Remaking of Energy Citizens on and off the Grid in California

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 2, Page 359-368, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Electricity grid infrastructures shape future publics and the contours of political belonging or exclusion, including citizenship. But in fire‐prone, more precariously grid‐connected regions in California, experiments with micro‐ and home nanogrids, subsidized by the state and built in many cases with Tesla products, provide new opportunities ...
