The ‘vulnerability paradox’: how institutional legacies shaped Colombia's response to Venezuelan displacement

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Colombia's response to Venezuelan displacement—driven by economic collapse, political instability, and humanitarian need—through the Temporary Protection Status programme has been praised internationally for its inclusive approach and positive effects on both migrants and host countries.

Geological and morphological setting of 2778 methane seeps in the Dnepr paleo-delta, northwestern Black Sea [PDF]

, 2010
The Dnepr paleo-delta area in the NW Black Sea is characterized by an abundant presence of methane seeps. During the expeditions of May–June 2003 and 2004 within the EU-funded CRIMEA project, detailed multibeam, seismic and hydro-acoustic water-column ...

Investors’ Natural Disaster Experience and Cost of Raising Equity Capital: Evidence From Seasoned Equity Offering Pricing

Journal of Business Finance &Accounting, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 1053-1076, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We investigate whether and how investors’ experiences of natural disasters affect the cost of raising new equity in a setting of seasoned equity offerings (SEOs). Our proprietary database contains comprehensive information on geographical distribution, investor profiles, investor office location, and bidding specifics related to SEOs.

Potential for Abrupt Changes in Atmospheric Methane [PDF]

, 2008
Methane (CH4) is the second most important greenhouse gas that humans directly influence, carbon dioxide (CO2) being first. Concerns about methane’s role in abrupt climate change stem primarily from (1) the large quantities of methane stored as solid ...

The making of pure quartzose sand in continental interiors: Paraná River (Brazil and Argentina)

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 802-837, April 2026.
ABSTRACT As part of a comprehensive project on sedimentary processes in South America, this study focuses on sediment generation in the intracratonic Paraná Basin and monitors the evolution of sand composition along the Paraná River from central Brazil to the Río de la Plata estuary in Argentina.

Characteristics of Intense Multi‐Day Wet Spells Over West Africa

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 4, 30 March 2026.
The study reveals a significant increase in intense wet spells, particularly in KASS‐D, emphasising the value of dense rain‐gauge networks. Larger‐sized events have grown, while smaller ones declined, boosting 3‐day and 5‐day wet spells' contribution to annual rainfall, with the Guinea Coast showing the highest increase and the Sahel the lowest ...

Inverse Grading Emerges From Particle‐Scale Migration Under Seasonal Freeze‐Thaw Forcing: Evidence From Multi‐Year Monitoring and Physical Modeling

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Inverse grading, where coarse particles overlay finer materials, is common on talus slopes, yet its progressive formation under realistic conditions is rarely quantified. We integrate multi‐year field observations with controlled freeze‐thaw experiments to elucidate the processes driving particle migration that result in inverse grading and ...

Insights From Two Decades of Seismicity at Columbia Glacier

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract We use Columbia Glacier as a case study to demonstrate how seismically cataloged calving events in Alaska can track glacier evolution over two decades. By combining this catalog—a serendipitous byproduct of earthquake monitoring—with terminus positions, bathymetry, glacier thickness, surface velocity, and environmental records, we show how ...

How Lateral Flow Impacts Heavy Rainfall in Complex Terrain: A Composite Analysis Over the Southern Anhui Mountainous Region

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract High‐resolution modeling of terrestrial hydrological processes offers new opportunities to advance the understanding of land‐atmosphere (L‐A) interactions. To investigate the impact of soil lateral flow (LF) on heavy rainfall events in mountainous areas of the Yangtze‐Huai region, we conducted two sets of convection‐permitting WRF simulations ...
