Communicating the hidden: Toward a framework for drought risk communication in maritime climates (2020)
Journal Article
Weitkamp, E., McEwen, L., & Ramirez, P. (2020). Communicating the hidden: Toward a framework for drought risk communication in maritime climates. Climatic Change, 163, 831-850. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10584-020-02906-z

This paper explores stakeholder perspectives on the drought discourse in the UK, where climate change is predicted to increase drought risk. This study took a co-productive, mixed-methods approach to investigate drought risk communication issues thro...

Holocene alluvial fan evolution, Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating and paraglacial debris floods in the SE Jostedalsbreen region, southern Norway (2020)
Journal Article
Matthews, J. A., McEwen, L. J., Owen, G., & Los, S. (2020). Holocene alluvial fan evolution, Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating and paraglacial debris floods in the SE Jostedalsbreen region, southern Norway. Boreas, 49(4), 886-902. https://doi.org/10.1111/bor.12456

The evolution of several sub‐alpine alluvial fans SE of the Jostedalsbreen ice cap was investigated based on their geomorphology and Schmidt‐hammer exposure‐age dating (SHD ) applied to 47 boulder deposits on the fan surfaces. A debris‐flood rather t... Read More about Holocene alluvial fan evolution, Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating and paraglacial debris floods in the SE Jostedalsbreen region, southern Norway.

Water governance challenges in rural South Africa: Exploring institutional coordination in drought management (2020)
Journal Article
Mayaka, E., Rohse, M., Day, R., Vogel, C., Mehta, L., McEwen, L., …Van Loon, A. (2020). Water governance challenges in rural South Africa: Exploring institutional coordination in drought management. Water Policy, 22(4), 519-540. https://doi.org/10.2166/wp.2020.234

Droughts have severe direct impacts on the livelihoods of rural populations. Thus, the management of water for communal agriculture and water supply should be well coordinated to enhance drought resilience. Notwithstanding the interrelations among wa...

How to exchange stories of local flood resilience from flood rich areas to the flooded areas of the future (2020)
Journal Article

Flood risk communication requires strong attention to message, messenger and timing within the adaptive cycle. This paper evaluates research that used a co-production of knowledge model to create digital stories from an archive of flood memories, gar...
