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.

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 ...

Professional Engagement With Climate Change Among Five Communities of Practice in Virginia, USA: An Exploratory Study

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
Municipalities across the United States and the world face profound climate adaptation and mitigation challenges. To assess current engagement and future potential of various professional communities to communicate about and contribute to such efforts, we conducted 56 in‐depth interviews in Virginia with members of five communities of practice (elected

Cyclone‐induced mixing and stratification shape autumnal hypoxia in a temperate estuary

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Autumnal hypoxia in temperate estuaries is often overlooked due to its smaller extent, weaker intensity, and sparse observations compared to summer. However, climate variability may alter its seasonality. Using 40 yr (1984–2023) of hypoxic volume data from the Chesapeake Bay, combined with numerical simulations, we examined interannual drivers

Probing the microbiome in stormwater pipeline sediments: Co-occurrence patterns and novel functionalities

Current Research in Biotechnology
Stormwater pipeline is an essential pathway to transfer stormwater runoff into nearby receiving water bodies. Understanding the composition, co-occurrence patterns, and function of the microbial communities in stormwater pipeline sediments can help to ...

Partitioning of Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Fecal Indicators Varies Intra and Inter-Storm during Combined Sewer Overflows

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) degrade water quality through the release of microbial contaminants in CSO effluent. Improved understanding of the partitioning of microbial contaminants onto settleable particles can provide insight into their fate in end-

An Urban Taonga: The Distribution and Abundance of Tuna in Urban Streams Across Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa‐New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 1, March 2026.
Freshwater eels of the Anguilla genus are experiencing global decline, largely driven by human activity. In Aotearoa‐New Zealand, tuna (both shortfin and longfin eels) are similarly affected, with habitat fragmentation and modification key drivers of their decline.

Influence of Aggregate Gradation and Pore Structure on Porous Asphalt Mixture Permeability and Resilient Modulus [PDF]

Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering
A porous asphalt mixture (PAM) is distinguished by its different porous structures, which allow water to move through it as quickly as possible, making drainage an essential component.

Pollution to Solution: Understanding and Addressing Microplastic Contamination in the Environment

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT In general, plastic pollution results from the unintentional release of macroplastic materials into the environment as well as the deliberate production and usage of small plastic particles (micro‐ and nano‐sized plastic particles) in a variety of consumer products micro and nanoplastics in filtrate freshwater and marine environments because ...
