Selected Physical and Geotechnical Properties of Loess in Wairarapa Valley, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 4, December 2026.
Loess up to 10 m thick covers marine terraces, old river aggradation terraces, and gentle hill country slopes in Wairarapa, New Zealand. In the drier eastern and southern parts of Wairarapa, the loess is subject to dry summer and autumn and wet winter and spring in most years.

Study of rainfall-induced landslide: a review

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2018
Rainfall-induced landslides pose a substantial risk to people and infrastructure. For this reason, there have been numerous studies to understand the landslide mechanism. Most of them were performed on the numerical analysis and laboratory experiment.

Rising Waters, Shifting Finances: Rural Household Decisions Under Flood Risk

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines how flood exposure and credit‐market reform jointly shape household repayment behavior in flood‐prone rural areas. Using monthly household loan records from Jiayu County, Hubei Province, China, during the 2020 flood season, we analyze first‐time overdue behavior and proactive repayment toward overdue debt.

Adaptive Prototype‐Based Few‐Shot Segmentation for Debris Flow Early Warning

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
From single‐parameter monitoring to a cross‐modal few‐shot visual paradigm for debris flow early warning. Conventional rainfall‐gauge and mud‐level monitoring is data‐sparse, delayed in response, and spatially limited. The proposed framework instead fuses a support set, a query image, and a textual target category through ResNet‐50 and CLIP encoders ...

Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...

Landslide‐Channel Coupling Controls Asymmetric Flash Flood—Debris Flow Transitions: Insights From an Extreme Rainfall‐Induced Hazard Chain in Yuzhong of China in 2025

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Extreme rainfall‐triggered landslide–flash flood–debris flow hazard chains (LFFDF) are increasingly responsible for hydroclimatic losses worldwide. Although dynamics of individual hazards are established, transition mechanisms within LFFDF governed by coupled landslide–channel responses remain unresolved.

More Frequent Atmospheric Rivers and Associated Precipitation Extremes Induced by the Baroclinic Annular Mode

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Atmospheric rivers (ARs) play a crucial role in the global hydrological cycle, yet how the intrinsic midlatitude atmospheric variability modulates their activity on subseasonal timescales remains poorly understood. Here, we show that AR frequency and landfall in both hemispheres vary strongly with the strength and phase of the Baroclinic ...
