open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A growing body of scholarship argues that collective memories of historical environmental change—formed and transmitted through museums, movies, novels, activist performances and other cultural texts and practices—can help nurture proenvironmentalism.

Structured Inequality, Uncertain Lifespans: Demographic Perspectives on Predicting Individual‐Level Longevity

open access: yesPopulation and Development Review, EarlyView.
Abstract There are striking disparities in life expectancy across sociodemographic groups in the United States, shaped by structural forces such as racism, class inequality, and policy environments. To what extent do sociodemographic characteristics structure—or fail to structure—individual lifespans? Using U.S.

Seasonal growth and reproductive dynamics of Chondrus ocellatus in relation to shore height in the Korean intertidal zone

open access: yesPhycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY We examined the seasonal growth and reproduction of the carrageenophyte Chondrus ocellatus in Hakampo, Korea (July 2014–April 2015), to understand its adaptation to environmental variability across the intertidal zone. Three hypotheses were tested: (1) growth is greater at the lower shore with reduced stress; (2) gametophytes dominate at the ...

Social welfare effects of annuitization in small open economies

open access: yesThe Scandinavian Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper develops a theory of when annuitization improves or reduces social welfare. The analysis is based on a small open economy with exogenous prices, populated by overlapping generations of non‐altruistic agents. Annuities provide longevity risk insurance and above‐market returns, but also reduce accidental bequests that transfer ...

Hyperglycaemia‐induced reactive oxygen species production in cardiac ventricular myocytes differs among mammals

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In rat and human adult ventricular myocytes, acute hyperglyceaemia (Glucose) causes increased glucose uptake (via GLUT) leading to O‐GlcNAcylation of CaMKII at Ser280, such that CaMKII activates NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) to increase cytosolic reactive oxygen species (ROS). That perturbs the ROS to Antioxidant (AntiOx) balance.
