“You just want to re‐open our biggest wounds, don't you?”: Homeplace ethnography as (polluted) environmental method

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract When I was 12, my family told me a story about their community falling apart and coming together, a time when someone tried putting a nuclear facility in their (our?) hometown. Since we moved when I was too young to remember, the story had little significance until I embarked on a “hometown” ethnographic journey for my dissertation.

Modeling runoff and sediment yield at the event scale in semiarid watersheds

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research
K2-RHEM, a recently integrated event-based rangeland watershed model, represents one of the few process-based models available for rangeland applications. However, to gain wider acceptance and demonstrate its reliability, comprehensive evaluation results are essential.

Divergent responses of hysteresis loops and sediment sources to rainfall regimes in karst small watersheds of Southwest China: A multi-method integrated framework for classifying erosive rainfall patterns

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study region: A typical karst small watershed in Southwest China. Study focus: Rainfall patterns regulate runoff–sediment dynamics, yet the mechanisms linking specific patterns to hydro-sedimentary regimes and sediment sources remain unclear.

Molecular Palaeontology Prospects From Exceptionally Preserved Eocene Brackish‐Water Bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis (Venerida: Corbiculidae) From Hokkaido, Japan

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reports the exceptional preservation of the Eocene freshwater bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis from Hokkaido, Japan. Multimodal analyses reveal that both the aragonitic shell mineralogy and the delicate organic periostracum retain their original structural and chemical characteristics after millions of years.

Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.
