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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...

Evaluating the effects of buoyancy range models on beam wander via wave optics simulations

open access: yes
In atmospheric optics it has become common practice to model the energy input or outer scale using a von Karman model. In terms of the turbulence power spectral density this model assumes that the slope of contributions outside the inertial range are ...

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

open access: yesBritish 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 ...

Temporal statistics of the beam-wander contribution to scintillation in ground-to-satellite optical links

open access: yes
The beam-wander contribution to the scintillation in a ground-to-satellite free-space optical link is one of major importance. An analytical model, based on the duality between beam wander and angle-of-arrival fluctuations, is proposed for the temporal ...

Ecologization Is Not a Metaphor: Museums in the Web of Life

open access: yesCurator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article documents and critiques emerging accounts of museum “ecologization”. Drawing on political ecology, materialist theory, and contemporary museum practice, we challenge dominant frameworks of ecological modernization and advocate for a more critical understanding of museums in the web of life.

Free-Space Optical Communication Systems with a Partially Coherent Gaussian Beam and Media Diversity

open access: yes
Terrestrial free-space optical (FSO) communications is an emerging low-license-free and high-bandwidth access solution, albeit hampered by the combined effects from atmospheric loss, turbulence and pointing errors (PEs).

Unmothered at Work: Organizational Silence Around Reproductive Loss

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An identity transition refers to changes in self‐concept that can result from professional or personal shifts. Although organizations increasingly support institutionally legible and culturally normative nonwork transitions, others remain professionally stigmatized or culturally unspeakable.

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Tubule and microbranch variations in human dentine: A quantitative 3D study with serial block‐face scanning electron microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective: Microbranches exist within dentine, providing a network of fluid filled connections between tubules. This study used serial block‐face scanning electron microscopy to generate 3D volumes of dentine from different tooth locations, allowing for investigations of the microbranch morphology, the microbranch network characteristics and ...
