A First Inventory of the Lichens of Mangaia, and an Updated Checklist for the Cook Islands
New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.A first checklist is provided for the lichenised fungi of Mangaia. Based on field work undertaken during November 2024, when 144 collections were made over a 5‐day period, 66 species are recognised from Mangaia, including 43 new national records for the Cook Islands. A number of the new records reported here for Mangaia are first reports for islands of

Wave Overtopping on Rubble Mound Breakwaters
Coastal Engineering 1988, 1988 The paper gives the results of an extensive series of hydraulic model tests carried out in a random wave flume, in order to study the effects on wave overtopping of the main geometric parameters of a typical rubble mound breakwater with crown wall.

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract The Lunar Trailblazer smallsat mission High‐resolution Volatiles and Minerals Moon Mapper (HVM3) science instrument was designed to acquire targeted spectral image cubes of the lunar surface at visible to shortwave infrared (VSWIR) wavelengths (0.6–3.6 μm) in an effort to understand the distribution, abundance, and form (OH, H2O, ice) of lunar

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Volcanic debris avalanches can transform into highly mobile debris flows, reaching long runout distances and posing significant hazards to downstream populations. This high mobility arises from complex, evolving rheological behavior driven by dynamic changes in pore pressure, internal resistance, and material properties during the flow.

Overtopping of Berm Breakwaters Extension of Overtopping Formula
, 2005 In this paper is presented an improved version of the overtopping formula by Lykke Andersen & Burcharth (2004)valid for berm breakwaters with initial slopes of 1:1.25. In the present paper guidelines is given on how to modify the formula to take into account the initial slope angle.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Quantifying dune face failure during storm wave conditions is critical for improving the predictive capability of coastal erosion models. However, most high‐resolution dune erosion observations used to validate these models were obtained from reduced‐scale laboratory experiments, raising questions about their applicability to field‐scale dunes.

Overtopping of Berm Breakwaters Evaluation of Overtopping Formula
, 2005 The berm breakwater concept is basicly rather old, but was not used very much until it was “reinvented” in the early 1980’ties, when a slope protection for an airfield runway extending into the sea in the Alutian Islands, Alaska was designed.

VERTICAL SEA WALL CREST MODIFICATIONS FOR OVERTOPPING
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2018 Crest modifications such as a storm wall, parapet or a bullnose are widely used to reduce the wave overtopping over coastal structures where spatial and visual demands restrict the crest heights, especially in urban areas. Although reduction factors of these modifications have been studied for sloped structures in EurOtop Manual (2016), there is ...
