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?

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract A widely accepted global model of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) is based on ICE‐6G ice loading and 1D‐viscosity model VM5a, a viscosity profile which remains at odds with mantle convection constraints such as from geoid modeling. We explore 3D‐viscosity variations in models of GIA and show that a model with lateral viscosity variations ...

Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.Lithium‐ion batteries used in space applications are exposed to extreme conditions, including radiation, vacuum, wide temperature fluctuations, and long storage times, all of which accelerate degradation. This review article summarizes the main degradation mechanisms affecting battery performance in space environments, including capacity fade ...

Size‐Dependent Habitat Selection in a Tropical Freshwater Crayfish: Preference for Vegetated Refugia
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Young freshwater crayfish need shelter to survive, but it is often unclear whether they actively choose safe habitats or simply remain where they are found. We show that craylings and juvenile red claw crayfish prefer vegetated habitats over bare sand or gravel, and that this preference becomes stronger as crayfish grow.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Single drone (a) and dual‐drone (a + b) setups used to assess behavioral responses to drone noise exposure. ABSTRACT Drones are increasingly being deployed to study wildlife; however, growing evidence indicates that drone noise can alter animal behavior and confound ecological data.

Trait‐filtered responses of mammal communities to land use change in a Neotropical dry forest
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Land use change alters forest ecosystems by reducing habitat amount and often increasing fragmentation, but the relative importance of these drivers for community dynamics remains debated. It is also unclear whether functional traits consistently predict species' responses to forest change, particularly in tropical dry forests.

Narrative Horizons: Deliberate Derangement in Oceanic Climate Fiction
Future Humanities, Volume 4, Issue 1, May 2026.ABSTRACT Although we live in the Anthropocene—the geological age of humankind, wherein humans have measurably impacted the biosphere—we struggle to narrate the Anthropocene. In particular, we struggle to give narrative shape to its foremost feature: anthropogenic climate change.
