Dangerous Deference: What the British Public Think about Civil‐Military Relations

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Accepted norms of democratic civil‐military relations aver, regarding the use of force, that military officers may not substitute civilians’ judgement with their own and that civilians should not follow their guidance blindly. These theories often rest on the presumption that three critical actors—government, armed forces, and the public ...

Autopsy, deathways, and intercultural healthcare in the southern Peruvian Andes Autopsie, pratiques mortuaires et soins de santé interculturels dans le sud des Andes péruviennes

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
While death remains a popular topic for anthropology, relatively few ethnographic accounts consider the modern bureaucratic processes accompanying it. One such process is public health autopsy, which scholars have largely taken for granted. Existing analysis has regarded it as a form of ‘cultural brokering’ and autopsy reluctance in communities is seen,

Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management

School achievement in the Brazilian rural Amazon: An analysis of the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors

British Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract A cross‐sectional study of 106 students (7–12 years) from a rural school in the Brazilian Amazon investigated the interaction among motor, cognitive and environmental factors on school achievement using network analysis. Students with good school performance were significantly older and showed superior global physical fitness, motor ...

Aerosol speckle effects on atmospheric pulsed lidar backscattered signals [PDF]

Lidar systems using atmospheric aerosols as targets exhibit return signal amplitude and power fluctuations which indicate speckle effects. The effects of refractive turbulence along the path on the aerosol speckle field propagation and on the ...

Resource Availability Overrides Predator Presence in Mosquito Oviposition Habitat Selection

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Gravid Culex quinquefasciatus balance predation risk against resource availability when selecting oviposition sites. In outdoor mesocosms, we factorially manipulated sugarcane jaggery (resource) and notonectid predators (adult vs. nymph; caged vs. free‐swimming) across 2 years.

Dismantling Gender‐Washing in Business Schools: A Nonbinary Perspective

Gender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the negotiations surrounding the identity of a nonbinary academic across multiple business schools. These institutions increasingly pledge their support for gender equality and prominently display queer, rainbow‐related discourses.

Evidence of a marine larval stage in coastrange sculpin Cottus aleuticus from a small coastal stream in California, USA, based on otolith strontium isotopes

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cottus aleuticus (coastrange sculpin) is one of two North American facultatively amphidromous sculpins, but habitat use during its planktonic larval stage is poorly documented. We analysed strontium isotopes (88Sr and 87Sr/86Sr) in otoliths of 10 adult C. aleuticus from a small coastal California stream.

Vortex beam broadening and wander in atmospheric turbulence

Journal of Applied Physics
Atmospheric turbulence causes beam broadening and beam wander in vortex beams during propagation. Based on the Rytov perturbation theory, the Huygens–Fresnel principle, and the beam wander theory, analytical expressions for the beam width and variance of beam wander of vortex beams propagating through atmospheric turbulence are derived.

Interventional human ocular safety experiments for 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C lamp irradiation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 517-526, March/April 2025.
To directly assess the ocular safety of 222‐nm far‐ultraviolet‐C (UVC) irradiation in humans, five subjects were exposed to 222‐nm UVC at doses of 22, 50, and 75 mJ/cm2. The findings indicate that far‐UVC irradiation does not cause “clinically significant photokeratitis” or long‐term ocular damage, though it may induce temporary discomfort.
