Interconnection, Obligation, Solar Power, and the Remaking of Energy Citizens on and off the Grid in California

open access: yesAmerican 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 ...

Bayesian Decision Thresholds for Bushfire Warnings: Calibration and Robustness for Rare‐Event Risk

open access: yesAustralian &New Zealand Journal of Statistics, Volume 68, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Current bushfire warning systems communicate the probability of a warning given danger, but residents require the probability of danger given a warning. This misalignment, combined with the extreme rarity of catastrophic fires, often leads to the dangerous ‘wait and see’ behaviour.

Equity in Evacuation Planning and Mitigation: Implications of Transportation Infrastructure and Social Vulnerability

open access: yesGrowth 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

Hybrid Hydrodynamic‐Machine Learning Modelling for Rapid Flood Scenario Assessment: A Case Study in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesJournal 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.
