Analysis of Dam Characteristics and Failure Trend of Landslide Dams With Different Materials: Field Investigation

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Landslides can block rivers and create natural dams that pose significant flooding hazards to upstream and downstream. Variations in dam materials and geometries play a critical role in controlling breach initiation and failure processes, thereby complicating failure assessment.

Spatio‐Temporal Patterns and Drivers of High‐Impact Precipitation Events in the European Alps (1961–2022)

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract High‐impact precipitation events (HIPEs) in mountainous regions are frequently associated with severe flooding, landslides, and significant impacts on infrastructure and human safety. However, a comprehensive understanding of their spatio‐temporal distribution and underlying atmospheric drivers across the European Alps is still lacking.

Improved Constraints on Andean Glaciations From the Lake Titicaca Continental Drilling Record

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Long sedimentary records from tropical lakes provide crucial archives for reconstructing the timing and extent of tropical alpine glaciations, yet robust chronologies beyond the radiocarbon limit (ca. 50 ka) remain scarce. Here, we refine the ca. 350 kyr chronology for Lake Titicaca (Peru‐Bolivia) using radiocarbon dating, optically stimulated

When machines invent: How AI shapes patent litigation outcomes

American Business Law Journal, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 177-187, Summer 2026.
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer merely a tool of invention. It has become an inventor. As AI systems increasingly contribute to the design and discovery of new technologies, their involvement raises novel challenges for patent law. This essay presents the first empirical test of whether jurors systematically perceive alleged patent ...

Where water meets rock: Ecological niches and diversity hotspots of hygropetric beetles in the Neotropics

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 502-516, June 2026.
First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.
