A Territorial-Configurational Index to evaluate seismic spatial vulnerability in urban-regional settings

Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, landslides, and floods, continue to pose significant threats to the urban society, resulting in human casualties, structural damage and economic losses. The impact of these extreme events is exacerbated by urbanization, infrastructural development and populational growth, emphasizing the demands for effective ...

Forest Loss Influences Biomass Distribution Across Trophic Groups of Amazonian Stream Insects

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Changes in resource availability caused by deforestation can negatively impact freshwater ecosystems, with implications for trophic chains. We investigated both the direct and indirect effects of forest cover and allochthonous resource availability on the biomass distribution of larvae of aquatic insects (Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera

The regional evolution of a dryland fluvio‐aeolian and lacustrine succession in response to allocyclic forcing: insights from the Early Permian Cutler Group, Utah, USA

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 297-354, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Preserved allocyclic signatures in the rock record often reflect basin‐scale climatic variability and serve as key proxies for correlating ancient dryland successions. The notion of climate cyclicity, however, remains largely untested on regionally constrained, outcrop‐calibrated studies.
