Hydropower Operations Reduce Alluvial Nesting Habitat and Alter Riverine Turtle Population Demographics

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydropower management has altered discharge regimes of large rivers worldwide, reducing sediment mobilization and early‐seral conditions essential for many riverine species. Spiny softshell turtles (Apalone spinifera) rely on alluvial habitats for nesting and may serve as sentinel species to assess the effects of regulated flow regimes and ...

Proposing a Framework to Center Justice in Ambitious Science Teaching

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Though educators and researchers have developed shared theory and language for priorities necessary to disrupt the status quo toward more equitable science education, we lack a tool that organizes sets of teaching practices across an instructional unit to support enactment and rehearsal.

Engaging the Complexities of Energy Transitions: Sociotechnical and Dualistic Insights From Crossdisciplinary Undergraduates

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Discourses of energy and energy transition have become increasingly prevalent in informal and formal learning spaces. Energy transitions differ across regions, contexts, and technologies. The contextual nature of energy is an opportunity for a sociotechnical approach to its study.

Illegal Gold Mining in the Brazilian Amazon: Environmental Degradation in Yanomami Indigenous Lands, and Regulatory Failures

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Illegal gold mining has emerged as a major sustainability threat in the Amazon, eroding Indigenous rights, forest integrity, and climate mitigation efforts. This study examines how international market incentives relate to the expansion of illegal mining and associated deforestation within the Yanomami Indigenous Territory (YIT) from 2008 to ...

How Tariffs Shape Trade‐Embodied Emissions in the European Union: Sectoral Heterogeneity in Final Demand

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the environmental implications of tariffs on greenhouse gas emissions embodied in extra‐European Union imports consumed by domestic final demand in the EU. Using a multidimensional country‐sector‐year framework, the study investigates whether tariff changes are associated with variations in trade‐embodied emissions and ...

Liquid‐Processed 2D Aromatic Amorphous Carbon: Defect Engineering and Universal Transport Scaling

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Liquid‐processed graphene oxide (GO) thin films undergo a controllable crystalline–to–amorphous transition driven by thermal quenching. By kinetically tuning oxygen‐driven defect formation during reduction, scalable 2D aromatic amorphous carbon phases are stabilized, directly linking nanoscale disorder and defect topology to electronic transport ...

Rounded Monodisperse Fluorescent Nanodiamonds

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Nanodiamond (ND) shape control using rapid molten‐nitrate etching is studied as a scale‐up method for monodispersed rounded particles. Optimal etching condition (567°C for 6 min) yields NDs with atomically stepped surfaces and reduced sp2 content. Compared to angular control, rounded NDs exhibit an increased proportion of luminescent particles (66% vs.

Lithium Ion‐Conducting Triazacoronene‐Based Neutral 2D Covalent Organic Framework as a Solid‐State Electrolyte

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A new 2D COF based on hexamethoxy triazacoronene (HMTAC) exhibits impressive ionic conductivity (10−4 S/cm), activation energy (0.25 eV), Li+ transference number (0.57), as well as promising specific capacity of 181 mAh/g with >99% Coulombic efficiency when employed as a solid‐state electrolyte in a Li || Li+@HMTAC‐COF1 || LiFePO4 cells, outperforming ...

A Test of the Coase Conjecture Using Prices of Electronic Books

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Coase Conjecture predicts that a durable‐goods monopolist without commitment will rapidly cut price toward marginal cost. We test this prediction in the electronic‐book market using release‐day prices. To proxy for marginal cost, we use competitive prices of public‐domain electronic books on the same platforms.
