Morphometric characteristics and their influence on soil hydrological properties in Kiltie watershed, Upper Blue Nile Basin, Ethiopia

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Morphometric analysis is crucial for watershed management, especially for estimating infiltration rate and erosion characteristics. However, there is limited research on the relationship between morphometric characteristics and soil hydrological properties in the Kiltie watershed.

Morphological instability in restored intertidal flats: How anthropogenic structures drive early‐stage evolution

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
The study focusses on the morphological evolution of worldwide restored intertidal flats. These intertidal flats initially experience high sedimentation rates after the opening of the connection with open waters. The anthropogenic structures cause high morphological instability and are eroded, leading to a self‐cannibalisation of the system.

Interaction of internal waves with the seafloor on the Namibian shelf (SE Atlantic Ocean): Implications for seafloor geomorphology

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Over geological timescales, internal waves play a significant role in shaping the seafloor morphology. They generate nepheloid layers, slope‐parallel channels and escarpments with erosional surfaces. Abstract The long‐term impact of internal waves on sedimentation and seafloor geomorphology remains poorly constrained.

Landslide Character and Hydrological Thresholds for Slope Failure Initiation on Volcanic Scoria Slopes: Case Study From Mt Hobson/Ōhinerau, Auckland, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 1, March 2026.
Rainfall‐induced landslides involving on Auckland Volcanic Field scoria cones are highly unusual, compared with widespread landsliding in the surrounding Auckland clay‐rich residual soils. Indeed, while Auckland can suffer from thousands of rainfall‐induced shallow landslides from severe storms at subdecadal timescales, these are usually limited to ...

Associating Local‐Scale Physical Habitat Assemblages With Reach‐Scale Stream Hydrogeomorphological Types in Mountain Headwater Catchments

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 527-546, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Building an understanding of river ecosystems often involves integrating information from different locations, spatial scales and points in time. Geomorphologists and ecologists have long considered ways to explore river ecosystems at different, hierarchical, spatial scales so that features observed locally can be linked to the character of ...

Effectiveness of Ecosystem‐Based Coastal Defenses Against Flooding

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Coastal flooding is growing substantially as storms increase and sea levels rise rapidly due to climate change. It is therefore important to find safe and sustainable ways to protect coastal communities against this growing risk. However, the effectiveness of traditional coastal defenses (hard seawalls) (HS) is being questioned due to concerns

Exploring the Formation and Age of Irregular Mare Patches (IMPs) to the Southeast of the Chang'e‐5 Landing Site

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Recently, possible exceptionally young mare volcanic glass beads were discovered in Chang'e‐5 (CE‐5) samples. Isotopic dating suggests an age of approximately 120 Ma, presenting new challenges to existing lunar thermal evolution models. Thus, our research focuses on the source region of Rima Mairan, a branch of Rima Sharp, and its surrounding ...

Metagenomic Analysis of Thawing Permafrost Highlights Links Between Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling Processes in Abrupt Thaw Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Abrupt permafrost thaw events are projected to contribute up to 40% of permafrost carbon (C) release to the atmosphere. They involve sudden hydrological shifts within the soil column; however, the exact microbial functional pathway shifts induced by these events remain cryptic. To investigate how C and nutrient cycling processes differ in thaw

The Arctic Coastal Erosion Model: Overview, Developments, and Calibration at Drew Point, Alaska

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Permafrost coastlines are experiencing significant erosion as polar amplification has enhanced the effects of climate change in the Arctic. Warmer temperatures are increasing thermo‐denudation and more energetic oceans are increasing thermo‐abrasion in unlithified, ice‐bonded permafrost coastlines which comprise at least 40% of the circum ...

Over the Hedge: Assessment of the Invasiveness and Potential Distribution of the Barrier Plant, Metrosideros excelsa (Myrtaceae), in South Africa and Beyond

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Ornamental plants, including barrier or hedge plants, are important in horticulture. Occurring at the urban to natural barrier, plants are often conflict of interest species. Here, we study the invading ornamental barrier plant Metrosideros excelsa Soland ex Gaertn.
