The Quality of Clarity: Lessons from the Sixty‐Year Struggle to Maintain the Purity of Lake Taupō

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.
Sixty years of effort to protect the exceptionally clear water of Lake Taupō, the largest lake in Aotearoa New Zealand, show how environmental memory can help manage a cultural and natural resource. I describe how water clarity and quality in this lake have been protected, through managing soil erosion and phosphorus flows during the 1960s–1980s, and ...

Swimming Under the Radar: Trout‐Free Kōaro Populations in Aotearoa Lakes and Tarns Are Rare, Understudied, and Disappearing

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 2, June 2026.
Over the last 150 years, most large, easily accessible lakes and tarns in Aotearoa (New Zealand) have experienced trout introductions or incursions, leaving few salmonid‐free reference lakes. Using database information and field surveys, we characterized lake, pond/tarn, and wetland systems found throughout Aotearoa that support populations of kōaro ...

The Essence of Crisis Decision‐Making: Saving Ravenna During the 2023 Floods

Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This article explores decision‐making processes in crisis situations by proposing an interpretive framework grounded in multiple criteria of rationality. Crises, characterized by uncertainty, urgency, and ethical dilemmas, require critical choices that go beyond standard procedures.

A Convolutional Neural Network‐Based Model for Precipitation Nowcasting Leveraging Data From Gauge Stations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Rainfall nowcasting, the short‐term prediction of precipitation, is a vital component of early warning systems aimed at mitigating the effects of extreme weather events. In this study, we develop a deep learning approach based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for rainfall nowcasting and train it exclusively on data from rain gauge ...

Map and Archival Evidence of the Historical Avulsion of the Brahmaputra River

The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 2, June 2026.
Short Abstract One of the world's great rivers, the Brahmaputra, avulsed—changed course—significantly sometime between the dates of 1765 and 1830. These are the dates of surveys by James Rennell (grey) and Richard Wilcox (black), both under the direction of the East India Company; no other surveys between these dates can refine the estimate of the ...
