FathomDEM
The Earth’s terrain is linked to many physical processes, and gaining the most accurate representation is key to work in many sectors from engineering to natural hazards modeling and ecology. Existing global digital elevation models (DEMs) are widely used, however often suffer from systematic biases caused by trees, buildings and instrumentation error, ultimately limiting their effectiveness. We present here, FathomDEM, a new global 30 m DEM prod…
Political economy of budgeting under autocratization
This article examines the impact of autocratization on central government spending, arguing that increasing authoritarian rule centralizes budgetary authority in the executive branch, thereby allocating larger resources to institutions directly controlled by the incumbent. We test this argument using data from Turkey’s Ministry of Treasury and Finance, focusing on Turkey under Erdoğan’s rule. Our findings illustrate that executive aggrandizement …
Strategic siting and design of dams minimizes impacts on seasonal floodplain inundation
Dams and reservoirs aid economic development but also create significant negative impacts. Dams fragment rivers and reduce longitudinal connectivity on a network scale. However, dams may also alter discharge regimes and flood peaks, consequently reducing floodplain inundation and lateral channel floodplain connectivity, which impacts floodplain associated ecosystems. Strategic planning has emerged as a promising approach to find a balance between…
A 30 m global map of elevation with forests and buildings removed
Elevation data are fundamental to many applications, especially in geosciences. The latest global elevation data contains forest and building artifacts that limit its usefulness for applications that require precise terrain heights, in particular flood simulation. Here, we use machine learning to remove buildings and forests from the Copernicus Digital Elevation Model to produce, for the first time, a global map of elevation with buildings and fo…
Comparing earth observation and inundation models to map flood hazards
Global Flood Models (GFMs) and Earth Observation (EO) play a crucial role in characterising flooding, especially in data-sparse, under-resourced regions of the world. However, validation studies are often limited to a handful of historic events and do not directly assess the ability of these products to simulate flood hazard - the probability that flooding will occur in a given location. As a result, it is difficult for stakeholders to decipher t…
Critical perspectives on the security and protection of human rights defenders
Since the United Nations General Assembly's adoption of the Declaration on Human Rights Defenders in 1998, there has been considerable effort to recognise and protect the right of individuals, groups and communities to promote and protect their own rights and the rights of others. Over time, a multi-level, multi-actor international protection regime for the rights of human rights defenders has emerged, derived from the international human rights …

Postmaterialism of the Left and Right
In his attempt to predict future political conflict, Ronald Inglehart writes that traditional class cleavages and ideologies will slowly erode and be replaced by the dominant value orientation of postmaterialism. This article shows that Inglehart's postmaterialists are not a unified social and political group. Postmaterialists of the right have attitudes that differ significantly from postmaterialists of the left about the ways in which society s…
