    “In this paper [1st link above], [the authors] seek to answer the question “what is the relative distribution of exposure to coastal hazards around the Irish coast, and where can coastal habitats potentially reduce exposure?”
    The method [they] chose to achieve this was the Coastal Vulnerability Model (CVM), within the InVEST software suite. This involves combining the key physical and climatic variables which can show us where along the coast might be most adversely affected by extreme winds, powerful waves and surges, and sea level rise.
    It also reveals the potential protection provided by coastal habitats, such as dunes and saltmarsh, as well as populations and sites of cultural heritage located within zones deemed “Very High Exposure”.
    [They] tested variations to the model, including seeing how the results change when certain variables are left out, what happens if we add in other variables, and how ranking choices impact exposure distribution. The results show that these choices, especially the ranking methods, can have large impacts on hazard distribution and the overall interpretation of the results. However, [they] found that the CVM quintile based approach was most suitable for Ireland, as it reveals high exposure sites on the east coast, which tends to be overlooked when different methods are applied.
    [The H/T] also prepared an interactive map, where you can view the results in detail [2nd link above]
    There’s a lot of work ongoing in this space around Ireland, [they] hope this will be a valuable contribution towards sustainable management of our coastline…”

    “[The author’s] study systematically investigates ‘DAYAS’ shallow, ephemeral wetlands scattered across the limestone plateau of Northwest Egypt. Previously undocumented in Egyptian territory, these saucer-shaped depressions play a vital role in regional hydrology and karst evolution.
    Through an integrated approach combining Sentinel-2 satellite imagery, multi-decadal Landsat time-series analysis (1984-2025), ALOS PALSAR DEMs, and extensive field validation, [they] identified and mapped 5,430 daya features covering 258.1 km² achieving 91% classification accuracy.
    [Their] research established a typological framework distinguishing bowl-shaped, small flat-bottom, and large flat-bottom dayas representing a continuum from active karst dissolution to relict, sediment-sealed systems. Critically, [they] documented a 32.63% net increase in daya surface area over 41 years, demonstrating that karst modification remains an active geomorphic process even under present-day hyper-arid conditions.
    This work provides government agencies and water resource planners with the first high-resolution spatial inventory of these features essential baseline data for sustainable groundwater management, water-harvesting infrastructure, and conservation prioritisation in this water-scarce region…”

    Estimating Increased Transient Water Storage With Increases In Beaver Dam Activity

    --
    “Dam building by beaver (Castor spp.) slows water movement through montane valleys, increasing transient water storage and the diversity of residence times. In some cases, water storage created by beaver dam construction is correlated to changes in streamflow magnitude and timing. However, the total amount of additional surface and groundwater storage that beaver dams may create (and, thus, their maximum potential impact on streamflow) has not been contextualized in the water balance of larger river basins..."
