Application-driven Sequential Designs for Simulation Experiments: Kriging Metamodeling [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper proposes a novel method to select an experimental design for interpolation in simulation.Though the paper focuses on Kriging in deterministic simulation, the method also applies to other types of metamodels (besides Kriging), and to stochastic

Linking Landscapes, Flood Risks and Communities: Flood Susceptibility Assessment of Connemara and Aaran Islands, Galway, Ireland

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Atlantic‐facing coastal communities of western Ireland face recurrent flood hazards driven by intense precipitation, storm surges, and tidal influences. Existing national flood mapping efforts provide valuable hydrodynamic simulations but rarely integrate multi‐criteria decision analysis with data‐driven machine learning to capture local‐scale

When There's No November Rain: Developing a Parametric Insurance for Hydroelectric Energy Generators in Brazil

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydrological risk is a growing challenge for renewable power systems, as droughts reduce generation, increase costs, and expose gaps in risk‐transfer mechanisms. We examine this problem in Brazil, home to the world's sixth‐largest electricity system and highly dependent on hydroelectricity, which accounted for 43% of installed generation ...

Mapping High‐Rate Clusters of Animal Contact‐Related Human Salmonella enterica Single‐State Outbreaks in the United States, 2009–2022: A Spatial Epidemiological Approach to Inform Public Health Surveillance

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 502-515, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Nontyphoidal Salmonella enterica (NTS) is a major zoonotic enteric pathogen. Animal contact‐related NTS outbreaks have increased in the United States over the last decade. Geospatial analysis can identify locations with elevated risk of NTS outbreaks where public health authorities can focus their NTS prevention and intervention ...

Integrating Multiple Approaches to Reveal the Spatiotemporal Pattern of Soil Erosion in Mollisol Watershed

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10355-10370, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Although numerous prediction methods have been developed, scientific estimation of the spatiotemporal pattern of soil erosion at the watershed scale remains challenging. In this study, fallout radionuclides of 210Pbex and 137Cs were used to estimate average annual soil erosion and deposition in a Mollisol watershed in Northeast China ...
