Thermal Behavior of Radiative Darcy–Forchheimer Nanofluid Flow With Heat Source/Sink Effects

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
Radiative Darcy–Forchheimer nanofluid flow in a porous medium is numerically analyzed with heat source/sink effects. Radiation enhances heat transfer and boundary layer thickness, while increasing Forchheimer resistance suppresses velocity, providing insights for optimizing thermal management in high‐temperature porous systems.

Spatial and Temporal Variation in Drivers of Saltmarsh Eco‐Geomorphic Evolution: Field Insights From the St. Lawrence Estuary, Canada

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.
Field campaigns establish a novel hydro‐eco‐geomorphic database for St. Lawrence Estuary saltmarshes; foundations to predict ecosystem evolution in an understudied region. Documented spatial and temporal variability in vegetation traits, inundation dynamics and sediment supply warrants further investigation in saltmarsh modelling frameworks.
