Mapping Philadelphia's Floodscape: A 35‐Year Analysis of Coastal Urban Flood Hazards and Drivers

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Low‐lying coastal urban cities face significant flooding risks from river flooding (fluvial), storm surges and high tides (coastal), and intense local rainfall (pluvial). Accurately assessing these hazards requires modeling frameworks capable of capturing both the individual and combined effects of multiple flood drivers, as well as the ...

Large Streamflow Differences Between Forested and Urbanized Watersheds in the Energy‐Limited Eastern United States: The Role of Evapotranspiration and Impervious Surfaces

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Urban forests and other green infrastructures have been viewed as part of the “Nature‐based Solutions” (NbS) to mitigate emerging urban environmental change. This study focuses on the role of evapotranspiration (ET) in regulating water balances of small watersheds in the eastern United States.

Food webs on green roofs are unique but less robust than their ground‐level counterparts

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
Green roofs operate as distinct habitats, offering novel environmental conditions, thus increasing urban habitat diversity and supporting denser but less robust food webs compared with ground‐level habitats. Increasing substrate depth and allowing for long‐term development can promote trophic diversity and robustness, informing strategies for urban ...

Use of Microbial Biofilms to Assess Groundwater Quality in Karstic Ecosystems

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 2, February 2026.
Analyses of prokaryotic diversity and community structures of biofilms showed variations linked to the nutrient and organic matter conditions in the studied karstic stations. Biofilms developed on artificial substrates appeared as promising indicators to assess groundwater quality in karst.
