Signals, Red Lines, and Collision: The Israel‐Iran Spiral and US Intervention

open access: yesMiddle East Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract The Iran War erupted in February 2026 without UN authorization, and Washington's rationales—Iranian nuclear ambitions, missile capacity, and proxy threats—map more closely onto Israeli than US security interests. Why have we seen two major conflicts between these belligerents in less than one year?

An improved moving particle semi-implicit method for dam break simulation

open access: yes, 2014
Dam break is quite a common and hazard phenomenon in shipbuilding and ocean engineering. The objective of this study is to investigate dam break hydrodynamics with improved Moving Particle Semi-implicit method (MPS). Compared to traditional mesh methods,

Terrorism, protest and the law (in a maritime context) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Characterisations of terrorism in international conventions and domestic law sometimes seem to obscure the distinction between terrorism and certain kinds of protest activity, which may, in turn, be characterised as either licit or illicit.

Hunting and Hauora: Pig Hunters and Poaka in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Geographer, Volume 82, Issue 2, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Though invasive, wild pigs (poaka) were fundamental to the survival of both Māori and Pākehā during colonisation, and they remain an essential source of kai (sustenance) today. Utilising a Whanganui case study, 24 participants, semi‐structured interviews, and thematic analysis guided by Kaupapa Māori principles, describe hunters' interests in ...

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean

open access: yesNew 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 ...

Strategic Roadmap for Addressing Microplastic Pollution in the Global South: Bridging Monitoring Gaps, Harmonizing Methods, and Building Analytical Capacity

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 4, Summer 2026.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution represents a growing environmental challenge, especially in tropical and subtropical coastal regions of the Global South, where methodological fragmentation, funding discontinuity, and dependence on external analytical infrastructure limit the production of comparable data and the formulation of evidence‐based ...

The United States Magnetotelluric Array and the National Impedance Map

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The United States Magnetotelluric Array (USMTArray) data set, collected in the years 2006–2024, consists of more than 1,700 long‐period magnetotelluric stations covering the entirety of the contiguous United States on a quasi‐regular 70 km grid.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

The Influence of Sea Ice and Ice Mélange on Outlet Glacier Dynamics in the Arctic and Antarctic: Recent Progress and Future Challenges

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.
