Supporting spatial orientation during route following through dynamic maps with off-screen landmark persistence (2021)
Journal Article
Smith, A. D., Priestnall, G., & Cross, J. (2021). Supporting spatial orientation during route following through dynamic maps with off-screen landmark persistence. Spatial Cognition and Computation, 22(1-2), 107-134. https://doi.org/10.1080/13875868.2021.1985122

We describe an exploratory investigation of a dynamic digital map, inspired by videogame design. Participants followed a novel route through an urban environment, using a custom map that presented directional information for off-screen landmark locat...

This work explores the main climate teleconnections influencing the Western Mediterranean Basin to outline homogeneous fire-prone weather domains combining cross-correlation time series and cluster analysis. We found a zonal effect of the Scandinavia... Read More about Spatio-Temporal Domains of Wildfire-Prone Teleconnection Patterns in the Western Mediterranean Basin.

Increasing Risk of Ecological Change to Major Rivers of the World With Global Warming (2021)
Journal Article
Thompson, J. R., Gosling, S. N., Zaherpour, J., & Laizé, C. L. R. (2021). Increasing Risk of Ecological Change to Major Rivers of the World With Global Warming. Earth's Future, 9(11), Article e2021EF002048. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021EF002048

The hydrological characteristics of a river, including the magnitude and timing of high and low flows, are important determinants of its ecological functioning. Climate change will alter these characteristics, triggering ecological changes in river e... Read More about Increasing Risk of Ecological Change to Major Rivers of the World With Global Warming.

Rediscovering Lost Landscapes: Topographical Art in north-west Italy, 1800-1920 (2021)
Book
Piana, P., Watkins, C., & Balzaretti, R. (2021). Rediscovering Lost Landscapes: Topographical Art in north-west Italy, 1800-1920. Boydell & Brewer

After the Napoleonic wars many wealthy British women and men settled along the coast in Liguria and travelled in Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta in search of warmth and health. They established English-speaking colonies of retired clerics, colonial offici... Read More about Rediscovering Lost Landscapes: Topographical Art in north-west Italy, 1800-1920.

Doing flood risk modelling differently: Evaluating the potential for participatory techniques to broaden flood risk management decision‐making (2021)
Journal Article

Green infrastructure: The future of urban flood risk management? (2021)
Journal Article
Green, D., O'Donnell, E., Johnson, M., Slater, L., Thorne, C., Zheng, S., Stirling, R., Chan, F. K., Li, L., & Boothroyd, R. J. (2021). Green infrastructure: The future of urban flood risk management?. Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Water, 8(6), Article e1560. https://doi.org/10.1002/wat2.1560

Urban flooding is a key global challenge which is expected to become exacerbated under global change due to more intense rainfall and flashier runoff regimes over increasingly urban landscapes. Consequently, many cities are rethinking their approach... Read More about Green infrastructure: The future of urban flood risk management?.

Intergenerational inequities in exposure to climate extremes (2021)
Journal Article
Thiery, W., Lange, S., Rogelj, J., Schleussner, C. F., Gudmundsson, L., Seneviratne, S. I., Andrijevic, M., Frieler, K., Emanuel, K., Geiger, T., Bresch, D. N., Zhao, F., Willner, S.

Science, 374(6564), 158-160. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.abi7339

Under continued global warming, extreme events such as heat waves will continue to rise in frequency, intensity, duration, and spatial extent over the next decades (1–4). Younger generations are therefore expected to face more such events across thei... Read More about Intergenerational inequities in exposure to climate extremes.

Northward shift of the southern westerlies during the Antarctic Cold Reversal (2021)
Journal Article
Fletcher, M.-S., Pedro, J., Hall, T., Mariani, M., Joseph, A., Beck, K., Blaauw, M., Hodgson, D., Heijnis, H., Gadd, P., & Lise-Pronovost, A. (2021).

Inter-hemispheric asynchrony of climate change through the last deglaciation has been theoretically linked to latitudinal shifts in the southern westerlies via their influence over CO2 out-gassing from the Southern Ocean. Proxy-based reconstructions... Read More about Northward shift of the southern westerlies during the Antarctic Cold Reversal.

Environmental Research Letters, 16(10), Article 104028. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/ac27cc

Future flood and drought risks have been predicted to transition from moderate to high levels at global warmings of 1.5°C and 2.0°C above pre-industrial levels, respectively. However, these results were obtained by approximating the equilibrium clima...
