Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract Sea ice is situated close to the termini of many outlet glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic and has the potential to influence their dynamics and, therefore, their contribution to sea level rise. However, the nature, prevalence, and ice‐dynamic significance of sea ice‐glacier interactions remains subject to several open questions.

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 2, Page 359-368, June 2026.ABSTRACT Electricity grid infrastructures shape future publics and the contours of political belonging or exclusion, including citizenship. But in fire‐prone, more precariously grid‐connected regions in California, experiments with micro‐ and home nanogrids, subsidized by the state and built in many cases with Tesla products, provide new opportunities ...

Advancing Systemic Risk Assessment for Complex, Interdependent Systems: A Research Agenda. [PDF]
Risk AnalABSTRACT Engineering risk assessment has traditionally focused on direct impacts to individual assets or systems. However, as society's most notable risks increasingly stem from complex, interdependent systems, conventional methods fail to capture the cascading consequences and deepening uncertainty. Addressing this gap requires developing or extending

Growth and Change, Volume 57, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT This research addresses a critical but underexamined challenge in disaster preparedness: the identification of neighborhoods where evacuation is hardest to accomplish based on physical infrastructure constraints as well as inherent social vulnerability. Existing evacuation approaches emphasize the flow of traffic and the capacity of roads, but

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Flooding is one of the most devastating natural disasters worldwide. It is also expected to become more severe as climate change impacts are realised. Two‐dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic models are used to obtain reliable inundation estimations.

Socio-economic Impact Assessment of Livelihood Security in Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Aquaculture on the Tsunami-hit Lands of Andaman [PDF]
Indian subcontinent is highly vulnerable to major natural disasters such as earthquakes, cyclones, floods, droughts, landslides and bushfires. Tsunami, which is a recent addition to this list, had occurred in the early morning of 26th December 2004 ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract Unraveling the surface deformation and fault kinematics during the seismic cycle is crucial for understanding earthquake physics. Herein, we use geodetic and seismic observations to quantify the interseismic coupling, coseismic rupture, and postseismic afterslip associated with the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake.

Assessing Vulnerability Before, During and After a Natural Disaster in Fragile Regions: Case Study of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami in Sri Lanka and Indonesia [PDF]
Current approaches of measuring vulnerability to natural hazards generally use a rather static perspective that focuses on a single point in time?often before a hazardous event occurs.

Frontiers in Plant ScienceIn this study, we investigated the photoperiodic responses regulating erect thallus formation in Petalonia fascia (KU-1293). We found that, through critical day length analysis and night break treatment culture experiments, P.
