World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.ABSTRACT Bengaluru, a primary metropolitan centre in India, is currently grappling with the dual crises of urban flooding and severe groundwater depletion. These challenges are driven by rapid urbanization, which has seen built‐up areas increase from 42% to 86% over two decades, resulting in a dramatic loss of vegetation and wetlands.

Mangrove expansion in a large river delta is dependent on foreshore geomorphology
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.Our findings provide guidance for large‐scale mangrove restoration, particularly in tropical river deltas, by identifying sites where (1) mangroves can potentially expand in the future, and (2) conditions are favourable for active mangrove seedling planting. The presence of a mudflat in front of existing mangroves is not sufficient.

Inundaciones y siembra directa
Estudios Rurales, 2022 Las inundaciones se producen cuando las precipitaciones superan la capacidad de almacenaje o infiltración de los suelos. El almacenaje o reservorio es la cantidad de agua que un suelo puede almacenar y está dado por múltiples factores. La dinámica hídrica en los suelos puede explicarse a través de los procesos de almacenaje, infiltración, percolación y

Administrative Capacity in Public Crisis Management—Better Than Its Reputation?
Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT In most crises, local administrations are on the institutional front line and while their response can take a wide variety of forms, it requires certain administrative skills to remain capable of acting. This study argues that the concept of administrative capacity offers a framework to consolidate key topics of current crisis research with ...
