Future Changes in Power Grid Exposure to Urban Flooding Over Eastern Coastal China

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract As one of the serious disasters, urban flooding has substantial impacts on power grid infrastructures. This study develops a two‐stage random forest model, comprising a classifier and a regressor, designed to assess urban flooding frequency (UFF) in eastern coastal China. The model utilizes Digital elevation model, slope, imperviousness ratio (

Decadal Erosion Rates and Sediment Buffering Identified Through Enhanced DEM Differencing Using Underutilized Global Satellite DEMs

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Quantifying decadal‐scale erosion rates in tectonically active regions is essential for assessing landscape hazards and constraining sediment budgets. A key question in Earth surface processes is how contemporary erosion measurements influenced by recent climatic extremes relate to long‐term geological rates.

Gully erosion in India: Geo‐environmental controls and region‐specific characteristics

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
Spatial statistical analyses using a novel spatial database of India‧s gully erosion landforms revealed that India has six major gullying‐affected regions, three of which (EU, DU, and KCH) are dominated by gully systems (gully networks), with badlands (vast intensely gullied landscapes) being predominant in the other three regions (YB, GP, and RU ...
