Modelling Spatial and Temporal Controls on Leaky Wooden Dam Effectiveness for Catchment‐Scale Flood Mitigation in an Upland Catchment

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural Flood Management (NFM) is increasingly adopted as a sustainable strategy for mitigating flood risk. Among these measures, the installation of leaky wooden dams (LWDs) at catchment scale is a widely used intervention aimed at slowing flow and desynchronising runoff peaks between sub‐catchments, thereby reducing flood magnitude.

The Influence of Aged Smoke on Urban Ozone: Aircraft Measurements in Chicago During the 2023 Canadian Wildfires

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract As large wildfires become more frequent and severe in North America due to heightened fuel aridity and fire weather conditions driven by anthropogenic climate change, wildfire smoke has an increasingly important influence on air quality. Transported smoke can impact urban boundary layer ozone (O3) directly, via the entrainment of O3 formed in ...
