International Social Security Review, Volume 78, Issue 2-3, Page 145-171, April-September 2025.Abstract Public works programmes (PWPs) are pervasively used to tackle poverty and unemployment, and to build infrastructure and skills in low‐ and middle‐income countries. While their impacts on poverty, food security and labour outcomes have been widely documented, there is little research focusing on the role of PWPs in supporting household climate ...

Servicesheds connect people to the landscapes upon which they depend
People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 112-126, January 2025.Abstract Ecosystem services (ES) are benefits people receive from nature. To sustain these benefits, we need to spatially connect communities benefitting from specific ES with landscape features that generate the ES. A variety of process‐based models support ES assessments by estimating the biophysical supply of ES that comes from landscapes.

River Research and Applications, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 1787-1800, December 2024.Abstract River bank erosion and river channel migration are geomorphic processes that can result in significant hazards when there are impacts to humans or infrastructure. Unlike flooding, there are limited national guidelines in Canada that provide recommendations on how to best assess riverine erosion hazards. Instead regional and local jurisdictions

Du riverain au résident : évolutions des liens à l’eau et culture locale du risque
Natures Sciences Sociétés, 2018 Au regard de l’histoire longue d’un milieu de marais, l’article propose de suivre les évolutions récentes, de 1960 à nos jours, des usages de l’eau lors du glissement d’un village agricole à une zone urbaine.

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 1823-1837, November 2024.Abstract Irrigated agriculture provides 40% of the world's crop‐based foods but often with a negative impact on the environment. It is important to recognize that in addition to providing food and fibre, irrigation and controlled drainage systems can be optimized to provide additional ecosystem services and mitigate climate change by using resources in

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 49, Issue 12, Page 3934-3948, 30 September 2024.Estimation of erosion during flash floods using the physics‐based model MARINE is compared with two empirical models RUSLE and MUSLE. Simulations with MARINE show that events can be classified into those dominated by raindrop erosion and those dominated by shear stress erosion. The eroded volumes simulated by the three models are comparable, except for
