Modeling Sub‐Grid Peatland Vegetation Dynamics in the ORCHIDEE‐PEAT Land Surface Model

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Peatlands store about one‐third of total global soil carbon. Vegetation composition strongly regulates peatland carbon dynamics. Global warming and climate‐driven ecohydrological changes are expected to alter peatland vegetation composition, necessitating accurate simulation of vegetation dynamics to predict future fate of peatland carbon.

Water Conservation and Extreme Weather Preparedness Messages: Helping Utilities Communicate to Encourage Public Cooperation

open access: yesJournal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, Volume 34, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Extreme weather events often require rapid shifts in public behaviour, such as conserving water during utility shortages. This study examined how three evidence‐based social influence strategies – cultural targeting, autonomy support, and descriptive social norms – shape public cooperation with water conservation advisories during such events.

Climate Change, Air Quality, and Pollen Allergies—State of the Art and Recommendations for Research and Public Health

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 663-683, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Allergies are one of the major health challenges of our time, associated with a high individual burden of disease and high costs for the healthcare system. Given their prevalence, allergies are also highly relevant from a public health perspective. The development of allergic diseases is multifactorial. In addition to individual factors (e.g.,

Attenuation of urban agricultural production potential and crop water footprint due to shading from buildings and trees

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2015
Urban agriculture requires local water to replace ‘hydrologic externalities’ associated with food produced outside of the local area, with an accompanying shift of the water footprint (WF) for agricultural production from rural to urban areas.
