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

Strengthening Rural Primary Healthcare for Climate Resilience in Zambia: An Equity‐Centered Approach
ABSTRACT Climate change presents an escalating threat to health systems worldwide, with rural populations in low‐income countries disproportionately affected. In Zambia, where primary healthcare (PHC) is the main access point for most communities, extreme weather events and environmental degradation increasingly disrupt service delivery and threaten ...

ABSTRACT There is increasing interest among decision makers in retrofitting large numbers of sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) across urban areas to help deal with the growing issue of pluvial flooding. For the practitioner an important early stage in the development of a retrofit SuDS scenario is the optioneering process, when it is desirable to ...

Multi‐Scale Hydrodynamic Simulation Framework for Flood Risk Assessment of Urban Metro Stations
ABSTRACT Urban metro stations are highly vulnerable to pluvial flooding, yet accurately evaluating internal risks remains challenging due to the disconnected modeling approaches between surface inundation and internal intrusion processes. This study proposes a practical multi‐scale 2D hydrodynamic modeling framework that bridges overland flooding with ...

Botanic and heritage gardens as living laboratories in the age of the polycrisis
Societal Impact Statement Cities face intertwined crises of climate, biodiversity loss and social disconnection. We show how botanic and heritage gardens can help address these challenges as living laboratories to generate place‐based evidence and public engagement.
