Creating Flood Disasters: Environmental Memory and Adaptation in Aotearoa New Zealand
Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.This article explores three questions. First, why does New Zealand have widespread flooding hazards? Second, why are these persistent, with little seemingly learned from the memory of earlier events? And third, beyond reiterating conventional solutions, what examples of alternatives or adaptations are being developed in different places?

A New and Minuscule Annual Species of Montia (Montiaceae) From Alpine Fens in Otago, New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.Montia minuscula Heenan is recognised as a new species from alpine habitats in Otago, South Island, New Zealand. It is currently known from only two locations, one in the Old Man Range (Kopuwai Conservation Area) and another in The Remarkables. It grows in palustrine fens that are associated with groundwater seepage such as from snowmelt and snowbanks.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract The microtopography of the Arctic tundra and the associated soil moisture (SM) gradient influence the net ecosystem‐atmosphere exchange of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2). To quantify fine‐scale variability in a permafrost ecosystem, we measured growing‐season carbon fluxes with closed chambers at Trail Valley Creek, Canada from 2022 to

Soil Physical Properties in Estimating the CO2 Emissions in Drained Peatland Forests
Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Peatland drainage aims at enhancing tree growth by improving soil aeration and nutrient availability through the lowering of water table, but it also accelerates peat decomposition and increases CO2 emissions. CO2 emission estimates of drained peatlands are typically based on surface‐level measurements, whereas studies on peat decomposition ...

Canadian Defence Procurement and the Project Approval Process
Canadian Public Administration, Volume 69, Issue 2, Page 233-249, June 2026.Abstract Marked delays in defence acquisitions in Canada have repeatedly raised concerns about the efficiency of its military procurement system. Observers point to the lack of a single point of accountability in defence procurement, a culture of risk aversion, and layers of bureaucratic process as key sources of the problem.
