Climatic controls on the hydrologic effects of urban low impact development practices
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 To increase the adoption and reliability of low impact development (LID) practices for stormwater runoff management and other co-benefits, we must improve our understanding of how climate (i.e.

A review of topsoil governance for mining and agriculture in South Africa and abroad
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Topsoil is taken for granted as the dirt under our feet. Yet, humanity hinges on 15 cm of topsoil. As with potable water, topsoil is a natural resource we depend on daily. This review examines the chronological development of topsoil conservation through the governance of legal and other instruments since 1701. It highlights how topsoil is defined, its

Visualising the Urban Imaginary: Failure and Irresolution in an Urban Digital Twin
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.Short Abstract The article analyses the visualisation encountered in an urban digital twin to argue that recognising the visualisation as a representation of the city is dependent upon habituation to perceptual and computational practices. Through speculative engagement with moments of visual irresolution, the article highlights the importance of ...

Quantifying Thermal Characteristics of Stormwater through Low Impact Development Systems
Hydrology, 2019 Urbanization causes alteration of the thermal regime (surface, air, and water) of the environment. Heated stormwater runoff flows into lakes, streams, bays, and estuaries, which potentially increases the base temperature of the surface water.

Impact of Seasonal Composition on the Long‐Term Performance of Post‐Consumer Recycled Polypropylene
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 15, April 15, 2026.Ten batches of post‐consumer polypropylene recyclate were examined over a period of 15 months. Despite identical MFR and density specifications, there were significant differences in their composition, affecting mechanical performance. Elongation at break and crack resistance varied particularly strongly.
