World Medical &Health Policy, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 587-612, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Drug overdose claimed more than 100,000 lives in the United States in 2021. Drug‐induced homicide (DIH) laws create specific criminal liability for individuals who provide drugs that cause or contribute to the death of another person. DIH prosecutions in the United States have increased substantially over the past decade despite the absence of

Managing uncertainty in decision‐making for conservation science
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Science‐based decision‐making is the ideal. However, scientific knowledge is incomplete, and sometimes wrong. Responsible science‐based policy, planning, and action must exploit knowledge while managing uncertainty. I considered the info‐gap method to manage deep uncertainty surrounding knowledge that is used for decision‐making in ...

BEYOND CONVENTIONAL BOUNDARIES
World Affairs, Volume 186, Issue 3, Page 747-775, Fall 2023., 2023 According to conventional wisdom, organized criminal activity is perpetrated primarily by non‐state, private actors who are occasionally [or not] protected by corrupt government officials. From this perspective, a hard distinction is made between those who provide protection to criminals (e.g., politicians or law enforcement officials) and the ...

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Urban expansion significantly impacts flood risk, particularly in rapidly growing areas where impervious surfaces exacerbate surface runoff. This study examines spatial patterns of urban growth and their effects on flood exposure in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, from 2011 to 2021.

Deep quantile regression for growth and maturation reaction norms
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 111-124, January 2026.Abstract Understanding species' growth and maturation responses to anthropogenic and environmental pressures is crucial for tracking demographic shifts, phenotypic change and ensuring population sustainability. Traditional regression methods often focus on modelling the conditional mean of life‐history traits, potentially overlooking heterogeneity in ...

Gaoya dianqi, 2022 基于对光学电流互感器闭环调制解调算法的数学分析，研究了闭环算法对一次电流的计算误差来源，证实闭环算法的计算误差只与一次电流的变化速率相关，并在此基础上研究了暂态电流工况下，典型光CT的误差特性，探讨了减小暂态电流误差的几类措施并进行试验验证，证实减少传感光纤匝数、缩短光路总长度以及线性度误差实时补偿均可有效修正闭环算法的计算误差，提高互感器的暂态电流精度。

Administrative Burdens and Inequities in COBRA Take‐Up
World Medical &Health Policy, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 658-668, December 2025.ABSTRACT To what extent does COBRA's lack of program visibility and complexity induce inequities in access to this form of health insurance? Though COBRA has long been an important tool for helping workers to avoid “job lock,” precious little scholarship has been devoted to understanding its reach.
