Investigation of the global transportation of Culicoides biting midges, vectors of livestock and equid arboviruses, from flower‐packing plants in Kenya

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 260-267, June 2026.
Arboviral diseases spread by Culicoides biting midges have been introduced into Europe by unknown means. A possible route is the carriage of midges with cut flowers shipped to flower markets. We sampled Culicoides in and around a cut flower farm in Kenya; midges were caught in the vicinity and a greenhouse, but not where flowers are processed.

Pluvial flooding in urban areas across the European continent [PDF]

open access: yesGeographica Pannonica, 2019
Pluvial flooding is a result of overland flow and ponding before the runoff enters any watercourse, drainage system or sewer, or cannot enter it because the network is full to capacity, usually caused by intense rainfall. River and coastal floods get the

Storm Surge Barriers Reduce Seaward Sediment Supply to Lagoonal Estuaries

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Numerical simulations with realistic forcing of fixed infrastructure for a proposed storm surge barrier for a lagoonal estuary, Jamaica Bay (New York, USA), are analyzed during typical forcing conditions to assess alterations to flow and sediment transport with the barrier open.

From Hydraulic Heads to Dollars and Decision: It's Time to Integrate Groundwater in Coastal Risk Assessment

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, -Not available-.
Abstract Sea level rise presents a range of hazards, including rising groundwater tables, salinization, and subsurface flooding, which threaten subsurface infrastructure in coastal communities. Groundwater shoaling inundates basements, tunnels, and utility networks, and mobilizes contaminants, while salinization accelerates corrosion and deteriorates ...

Feral Territories: The Suburbanization of Nature in Eastern Bangkok

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Between the 1960s and 1980s, American and international financial and technical assistance spurred men with means to bring together concrete, asphalt, timber, and steel to construct unplanned, poorly serviced (because they were unplanned), and expensive subdivisions at the outskirts of what was then central Bangkok.

Public health reforms and the mortality decline in nineteenth‐century Italy

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 527-554, May 2026.
Abstract This study examines the impact of Italy's 1887–8 health reforms on mortality, contributing to the historical debate on the state's role in Europe's health transition. Leveraging event‐study‐style difference‐in‐differences approach, we assess the effectiveness of the Crispi–Pagliani reforms, which strengthened public health governance and ...

Evaluation and use dynamics of water in Barú (Cartagena, Bolívar, Colombia)

open access: yesActa Biológica Colombiana, 2004
The insular town of Barú (Cartagena, Bolívar, Colombia) lacks aqueduct and sewer system services; however, Barú's habitants manipulate the water to satisfy their basic necessities.
