Frontiers in Remote Sensing, 2023 Barrier islands are low-lying elongated, narrow sandy deposits, usually parallel to the coastline, separated from the continent by a lagoon. Due to their low elevation above sea level, barrier islands are environments susceptible to drastic morphological

Managing tourism on Green Island, Great Barrier Reef Marine Park: conservation, commerce and compromises [PDF]
, 2011 [Introduction]: This chapter reviews the environmental management of tourism on Green Island a coral cay located 45 minutes from Cairns in Tropical North Queensland, Australia. This 12-hectare coral cay is the single most visited destination on the Great

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Postbuild annealing systematically modifies the phase fractions and morphology of EB‐PBF processed Mo–9Si–8B. Quantitative microstructure–property correlations reveal how controlled phase evolution enhances high‐temperature compressive strength and creep resistance.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Binder‐free laser powder bed fusion of 8YSZ with a femtosecond laser is used to map process windows linking scan strategy, heat accumulation, and grain growth. Time‐resolved thermography and simulations reveal thermal regimes that enable continuous, vitrified, and fine‐grained 8YSZ surface layers without absorptive additives and demonstrate ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Melanin content directly controls fungal spore mechanical properties, with pigmented spores achieving rupture forces two orders of magnitude higher than hyaline spores. Environmental stress drives this quantity‐quality tradeoff; stressed species invest energy in melanin‐reinforced, mechanically superior thick‐walled, super‐hydrophobic spores, while ...

Islands, Island Studies, Island Studies Journal [PDF]
, 2006 Islands are sites of innovative conceptualizations, whether of nature or human enterprise, whether virtual or real. The study of islands on their own terms today enjoys a growing and wide-ranging recognition.

Sedimentary evolution, hydrogeology and geochemistry of a back-barrier sand island : Toorbul, Southeast Queensland [PDF]
, 2008 Small back-barrier sand islands are poorly known in terms of hydrogeology and have been overlooked in more extensive studies of coastal groundwater systems that include larger barrier island complexes.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Three‐dimensional bioprinting transforms breast cancer modeling from simple constructs into spatially organized, multicellular, perfused, and patient‐derived platforms. This review shows how bioinks, cellular composition, architecture, and flow govern tumor behavior and drug response, while revealing why complexity alone is insufficient without ...
