The influence of ex‐tropical cyclones on marine terrace retreat
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.Ex‐tropical cyclones can damage the integrity of marine terrace structures and contribute to erosion, but they are sometimes too infrequent to explain the longer term erosion rates of coastlines. Abstract High magnitude events, like Ex‐Tropical Cyclones, are likely to change in their trajectory, magnitude, and frequency under future climate change ...

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Background and Aims Disasters such as earthquakes can severely disrupt hospital operations and endanger patient safety. Rapid evacuation of critically ill patients and medical equipment under pressure presents serious challenges. Strengthening preparedness through comprehensive training and systematic evaluation is essential.

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...

Low Hazard–High Risk: A Case Study of the Active Mangatangi Fault
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.Activity on low deformation rate faults are challenging to quantify and comparatively understudied. One such fault, the Mangatangi Fault, strikes NE‐SW along the southeastern flanks of the Hunua Ranges c. 52 km south of New Zealand's most populous city, Auckland.

Creating Flood Disasters: Environmental Memory and Adaptation in Aotearoa New Zealand
Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 2, June 2026.This article explores three questions. First, why does New Zealand have widespread flooding hazards? Second, why are these persistent, with little seemingly learned from the memory of earlier events? And third, beyond reiterating conventional solutions, what examples of alternatives or adaptations are being developed in different places?
