Summary

Floodplain Formation explores the creation and evolution of floodplains, the fertile lands bordering rivers, emphasizing their ecological and human significance. Delving into fluvial geomorphology and hydrology, the book reveals how sediment transport and river dynamics shape these landscapes. Intriguingly, floodplains support disproportionately high biodiversity and provide critical ecosystem services like floodwater storage. For millennia, human societies have relied on floodplains for agriculture, yet this interaction also brings challenges like increased flood risk. The book systematically progresses from basic concepts of river dynamics to examining specific floodplain formation processes, such as overbank flooding. It then explores ecological functions, human impacts, and sustainable management strategies. By integrating diverse data sources, it links floodplain dynamics to broader environmental challenges, like climate change, and considers human impact through agriculture, urbanization, and flood control structures. This approach provides a holistic understanding essential for anyone interested in the Earth Sciences and sustainable management of these vital environments.

    In Homelessness Is a Housing Problem, Gregg Colburn and Clayton Page Aldern seek to explain the substantial regional variation in rates of homelessness in cities across the United States. In a departure from many analytical approaches, Colburn and Aldern shift their focus from the individual experiencing homelessness to the metropolitan area. Using accessible statistical analysis, they test a range of conventional beliefs about what drives the prevalence of homelessness in a given city—including mental illness, drug use, poverty, weather, generosity of public assistance, and low-income mobility—and find that none explain the regional variation observed across the country. Instead, housing market conditions, such as the cost and availability of rental housing, offer a far more convincing account. With rigor and clarity, Homelessness Is a Housing Problem explores United States cities' diverse experiences with housing precarity and offers policy solutions for unique regional contexts.
