Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2618-2633, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

Shallow-Water Submarine Landslide Susceptibility Map: The Example in a Sector of Capo d’Orlando Continental Margin (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Active continental margins, generally characterized by narrow shelves incised by canyons, are pervasively shaped by submarine landslides that can occur near coastal areas.

Taxonomic Revision of Corsia (Corsiaceae) Reveals Over‐Estimated Mycoheterotroph Diversity in Papuasia: 25 Species Become 10

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Corsia (Corsiaceae) is a remarkable genus of achlorophyllous, fully mycoheterotrophic plants distributed across New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and Northern Australia. The genus has often been considered an example of adaptive radiation amongst mycoheterotrophic plants, with 25 narrowly endemic species, most known from just one or two ...

Comprehensive Analysis for the Evaluation of Torrential Floods and Slope Stability of River Channels: La China River Area (Colombia)

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Colombia and other tropical regions face a very high threat from torrential floods, which have resulted in over 25,000 deaths in a single event. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive assessment methodology to zone and determine the magnitude of these disasters; therefore, this research aims to help fill this gap.

Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9236-9253, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

Potential failure mechanism of low–angle submarine landslides in shelf–slope break of Pearl River Mouth Basin, South China Sea

International Journal of Mining Science and Technology
Low–angle submarine landslides pose a greater threat to offshore infrastructure compared to those with steep sliding angles. Understanding the preparation and triggering mechanism of these low–angle submarine landslides remains a significant challenge ...

Probabilistic Seismic Stability Analysis of Pile Reinforced Slope Using Modified Pseudo Dynamic Method Based on Modified Response Surfaces Approach

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
A probabilistic analysis framework for the seismic stability of pile‐reinforced slopes is developed by coupling the modified pseudo‐dynamic method with the response surface approach, enabling a more accurate estimation of the factor of safety and failure probability.

Spatial variability of denudation rates and transient landscape adjustment in low‐deforming mountains (the Strengbach catchment, Vosges Mountains, France)

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
Erosion across the landscape is described at first order by a limited number (nine) of homogenous geomorphological and lithological domains. Using a dense set of basin wide denudation rates, it is possible to retrieve the contribution of each litho‐morpho‐domains as a function of their respective surface.

Surface ages of alluvial fans in the southern Central Andes recorded by ground‐ and space‐based hyperspectral reflectance

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.
Secondary weathering of alluvial‐fan surfaces records the relative, and even absolute, ages of deposited sediments up to 300 ka. Hyperspectral imagery quantifies evolving mineral‐weathering pathways to unlock high‐resolution mapping and dating of these sedimentary landscapes.
