Rainstorm Flood Risk Assessment in the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor Under Different Shared Socioeconomic Pathways of the 21st Century

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified the atmospheric water cycle, leading to more frequent and severe extreme precipitation events, which are a major driver of rainstorm‐induced flooding. Developing regions such as the China–Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC), spanning highly heterogeneous terrain and climate zones, face elevated risk due to limited ...

Phylogenetic Diversity and Community Assembly of Vascular Plants Along Environmental Gradients in the Western Pamir–Alay: A Case Study From Surkhandarya Province, Southern Uzbekistan

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Using extensive field, herbarium, and database records, we examine patterns of species richness, phylogenetic diversity, and community assembly along elevational and climatic gradients in an understudied region of Central Asia. ABSTRACT Biodiversity plays a fundamental role in ecosystem structure, function, and stability, but its response to ...

Comparative Chloroplast Genomics of Cousinia (Asteraceae) With Nine Newly Sequenced Endemic Species From Central Asia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
In this study, nine complete chloroplast genomes of Cousinia species endemic to the Pamir–Alay mountain system were sequenced and analyzed together with previously published plastomes and nuclear ribosomal ITS data. ABSTRACT Cousinia (Asteraceae: Cardueae) represents one of the most species‐rich genera within the Irano–Turanian floristic region, yet ...

Modelling the Black Carbon Variability and Dynamics in Almaty, Kazakhstan, During Winter and Summer Seasons

Meteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
The study investigates the seasonal transport of black carbon (BC) from Almaty, Kazakhstan, to adjacent mountain areas. The radiative effects associated with BC are evaluated at the surface, within the atmosphere, and at the top of the atmosphere. ABSTRACT Large cities with poor air quality can affect surrounding areas through pollutant transport and ...

Modelling Reveals an Ice Field on the Arid Northeastern Tibetan Plateau During Marine Isotope Stage 6

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The long‐standing hypothesis that an ice sheet covered the Tibetan Plateau during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has been refuted. Further research has indicated that the Plateau experienced more extensive glacial expansion during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 6 than during the LGM.

Relationship between tectonism and desertification inferred from provenance and lithofacies changes in the Cenozoic terrestrial sequence of the southwestern Tarim Basin

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2021
The modern-day Tarim Basin is covered almost entirely by the Taklimakan sand desert and is one of the most arid regions in the world. Unraveling the aridification history of the desert is important for understanding global climate changes during the ...

Identification of Quality Markers in Viola kunawaresis Royel Using HPLC Fingerprints, Chemometric Analysis, and Network Pharmacology

Biomedical Chromatography, Volume 40, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Violae tianshanicae herba (VTH), a widely used crude drug in Uyghur medicine in China, is renowned for its immunomodulatory, anti‐inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, and antidiabetic activities, with notable efficacy in treating asthma. However, systematic research on its quality markers (Q‐markers) remains limited, underscoring the need ...

Post‐Processed CMIP6 Climate Projections for Hydro‐Environmental Risk Assessment in the Middle East and Central Asia

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 5, April 2026.
Estimating water resources is important for regional climate impact analysis and risk estimation. The Middle East and Central Asia have largely reached the limit of sustainably usable water across their river basins and ecosystems. Strategies designed to mitigate environmental risks require a reliable estimation of water availability trends.

Nation‐Building in the Wake of Empire: Identifying Patterns of Minority Policies in the Aftermath of Soviet Collapse

Nations and Nationalism, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 386-401, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The collapse of the USSR forced newly independent states to forge national identities while grappling with imperial legacies. This study investigates nation‐building strategies in post‐Soviet states during 1990–1999, using the Nation‐Building Policies (NBP) dataset from the ETHNICGOODS project, which includes all socially and politically ...
