Opportunities for the U.S. Geological Survey's National Seismic Hazard Model to Improve Seismic Risk Assessment of Critical Infrastructure

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
As fragility and risk modeling techniques and computational capabilities evolve, complemented by moving toward more routine and systematic seismic risk assessment of all buildings and critical infrastructure, the authors pose a few critical questions to investigate how the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Seismic Hazard Models (NSHMs) can be used

Disentangling conservation asymmetries through socio‐economic transboundary factors across the Alto Paraná Atlantic Forest of South America

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1328-1348, May 2026.
Abstract Ecoregions are often defined based on homogeneous biophysical and ecological conditions and are optimal spatial units for designing conservation strategies. However, transboundary ecoregions such as the Alto Paraná Atlantic Forest (APAF) experience asymmetrical conservation outcomes, understood here as cross‐border differences, resulting from ...

Dam It, I’m Stranded: Evaluating Fish Stranding Downstream of Two Hydropeaking Dams in Northern Ontario

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 796-811, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Globally, there has been an increase in the development and use of hydropower to produce energy. Hydropeaking is an operating regime that is used to meet real‐time energy demands; however, daily fluctuations in flows may result in fish becoming stranded.

Ex situ conservation of Dyckia distachya: an endangered bromeliad from South Brazil

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2004
The Brazilian Atlantic Forest biome contains a high level of genetic diversity. Historically, several factors have contributed to the drastic reduction of its cover, today restricted to less than 7%. Large forest areas have been cut down in the states of

The Transboundary Reach of the Columbia River: Cottonwood Colonization Followed Flow Moderation From the Columbia River Treaty Dams

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 837-850, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Columbia river provides the largest Pacific outflow in the Western Hemisphere and the greatest hydropower production of any North American river system. For hydropower generation and flood risk management, four massive water storage reservoirs followed the Columbia River Treaty between Canada and the United States, with three Canadian dams,

Snow Water Storage Within Eight Pacific Coastal Watersheds in British Columbia (Canada) Inferred From Four Years of Airborne Lidar Data

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Maritime mountain snowpacks are among the least understood and most poorly quantified components of global snow water storage, despite their vital role in sustaining water supplies and ecosystem health. Here, we present a 4‐year record of snow mass distribution across eight small‐to‐medium‐sized (5.2–63.4 km2) watersheds within the coastal ...
