Mapping impervious surface for new jersey watershed management area 5 using aster imagery

, 2005
In this paper we present methods to estimate and map impervious surface distribution in an urban watershed using Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) imagery for Watershed Management Area 5 in the Northern New Jersey ...

Evolution of Pore Fluid Pressure in an Accretionary Outer Wedge Over Megathrust Earthquake Cycles: The Northern Cascadia Example

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
The evolution of pore fluid pressure ( Pf$P_{\mathrm{f}}$) in the most seaward portion of a subduction accretionary prism plays an essential role in the cycle of tsunamigenic earthquakes. Based on recent geophysical observations, here we propose a testable conceptual model for this evolution for northern Cascadia offshore of Washington.

Creating Flood Disasters: Environmental Memory and Adaptation in Aotearoa New Zealand

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
This article explores three questions. First, why does New Zealand have widespread flooding hazards? Second, why are these persistent, with little seemingly learned from the memory of earlier events? And third, beyond reiterating conventional solutions, what examples of alternatives or adaptations are being developed in different places?

Impervious Surface Cover: Non-Paved Areas

, 2001
A special algorithm has been applied to the Landsat 7 image to illuminate the changes in low-density residential land use which exemplify sprawl. There is a link between impervious surfaces within a watershed, (here we see a subset of the Chesapeake Bay ...

Watershed land cover predicts the abundance of macroplastic and other anthropogenic litter in streams

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
Macroplastic and other types of macroscopic anthropogenic litter (AL; trash, particles > 5 mm) are pervasive across ecosystems, persistent in the environment, increasing in abundance, and can degrade into microplastics (particles < 5 mm). Rivers retain and transform AL prior to export downstream, but improved predictions of AL distribution and movement

Enhancement of Corrosion and Wear Resistance in Polymeric Coatings via Ce(III)‐Functionalized Ternary ZnAlCe Layered Double Hydroxides Intercalated With EDTMP

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The intricate corrosion environment necessitates the polymeric coating's adaptability to the surroundings. In this work, the integration of rare‐earth Ce(III) ions and ethylene diamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid (EDTMP) in a layered double hydroxide (LDH) material is developed to enhance the corrosion protection and anti‐wear properties of

Geomorphic Responses to Post‐Grazing Recovery and Stream Restoration in Semiarid Grassland Streams

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 1083-1098, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Semiarid grassland streams are sensitive to land use, climate, extreme discharges, and internal geomorphic thresholds that drive episodic erosion. Rooted in a process‐based philosophy and commonly applied to historically wood‐rich, beaver‐modified systems, low‐tech process‐based restoration using structures is increasingly being extended to ...

Strategic Roadmap for Addressing Microplastic Pollution in the Global South: Bridging Monitoring Gaps, Harmonizing Methods, and Building Analytical Capacity

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution represents a growing environmental challenge, especially in tropical and subtropical coastal regions of the Global South, where methodological fragmentation, funding discontinuity, and dependence on external analytical infrastructure limit the production of comparable data and the formulation of evidence‐based ...

The Baltimore Community Weather Station Network: Filling the Urban Measurement Desert

Community Science, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Quantification and understanding of how heat, rainfall, and air quality vary within cities are needed to identify the area with the worst conditions, develop solutions to extreme weather, and assess the impact of proposed policies. However, neighborhood‐level variability is not well quantified because there are few environmental measurement ...

Escalating Hydroclimatic Extremes and Volatility in the UK Under 2°C and 4°C Warming

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Hydrological extremes, including both floods and droughts, are projected to intensify under global warming, yet their joint evolution and variability across temperate catchments remain underexplored. This study uses bias‐corrected regional climate projections from the UK Climate Projections 2018 (UKCP18) and a distributed HBV‐TYN hydrological ...
