EXPERIENCING MORE‐THAN‐PANDEMIC WATERSCAPES: An Intra‐urban Comparison of Water Practices and Geographies in Nairobi

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract While many African cities, such as Nairobi, fared comparatively well during the pandemic years, urban residents still faced compounded uncertainties and an unequal distribution of burdens that were infrastructurally co‐mediated, for example, within and through place‐specific waterscapes and their socio‐technical infrastructures.

CHINESE UNIVERSITIES AS URBAN DEVELOPERS: The Tale of Two Innovation Complexes in Nanjing, China

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Chinese universities are important but undertheorized players in the production of urban built environments. Most work focuses on purpose‐built university towns, neglecting the redevelopment of underutilized downtown campuses. Therefore, this article considers how two publicly funded universities in Nanjing attempted to establish ‘innovation ...

Multicriteria Prioritization of Geospatial Data Sources Using the Neutrosophic Hierarchical Analytic Process in Spatial Ontologies [PDF]

open access: yesNeutrosophic Sets and Systems
The need for an automatic fusion of heterogeneous, generally untrustworthy geospatial sources into spatial ontologies necessitates prioritization when conflicts arise or lower qualities emerge.

Dutch dilemma: Housing prices and flood risk exposure

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This article studies the impact of flood risk exposure on housing prices in a major river delta. Analyzing 1.8 million property transactions from 1998 to 2023 in the Netherlands, we find an average price discount of 1.1%. We observe considerable heterogeneity in price effects driven by exposure intensity, institutional settings that vary ...

Biodiversity‐driven spatial conservation planning to delineate temporally stable regions

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The accelerating loss of biodiversity underscores the critical need for effective conservation strategies, particularly in the face of climate change and anthropogenic pressures. We devised a conservation planning framework that adopts a temporal stacking approach to species distribution models and landscape connectivity analyses. These models
