River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Low‐Income, Minority‐Serving Public Schools in Southern California Have Disproportionately High Surface Temperatures

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Extensive evidence demonstrates that people from minority backgrounds often face unequal exposure to extreme heat and have less access to green space that can provide cooling relief. What is less clear is whether these inequities extend to students on school playgrounds, where high temperatures can affect physical health, social and emotional ...

Mechanistic elucidation of dual-scale reinforcement in rock–Nano TiO2 modified asphalt for enhanced durability and performance balance

open access: yesMaterials Research Express
While traditional Rock Asphalt (RA) provides high-temperature stiffness and rutting resistance, its application in cold climates is limited due to low-temperature brittleness and high thermal susceptibility. This study explores the mechanistic basis of a
