INTERNAL EROSION OF VOLCANIC COARSE GRAINED SOILS AND ITS EVALUATION

open access: yesInternational Journal of GEOMATE, 2017
This paper aims at revealing mechanical behavior of volcanic coarse grained soils subjected toseepage flow. In order to accomplish the purposes, a series of upward seepage tests was conducted to grasp pipingphenomenon in compacted volcanic soils and to investigate the effects of differences in compaction conditions onits behavior.

Experimental Study on Water and Salt Migration and the Aggregate Insulating Effect in Coarse-Grained Saline Soil Subgrade under Freeze–Thaw Cycles

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Understanding multiphase transformations and the migration of heat, water, vapor, and salt in coarse-grained saline soil under groundwater recharge and environmental freeze—thaw cycles is crucial for ensuring the stability of highway infrastructures.

Micro‐habitat selection by boreal woodland caribou improves access to food

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Bio‐logging sensors attached to radiotelemetry receivers have great potential to transform our understanding of the ecological, physiological, and energetic constraints that shape patterns of wildlife movement under field conditions. We used video camera collars to assess microhabitat selectivity by woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus in boreal forests ...

Pickin' up good vibrations: a systematic review of footfall detection and analysis in the realm of wildlife surveying

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Spatiotemporal mapping the usable space of free‐roaming equids across the western United States

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Identification of the inter‐decadal (2010‐2011) enhancement‐degradation gradients in the usable space for wild equid Herd Management Areas in the Great Basin, USA. Abstract Management of feral equids in the American West is hindered by the lack of a formal habitat map and monitoring system.

‘From the Fields Into the Bars’: The Story of Israel's First Transgender Novel, The Cut (1977)

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1977, an Israeli transgender woman, Judy Spotheim, published an autobiographical novel entitled The Cut. It describes the emergence of a trans community in the commercial‐sex areas of Tel Aviv‐Jaffa, hoping to humanise trans women (coccinelles). This article is the first to study the novel and present a biography of Spotheim.

Financial Climate‐Risk Measurement, Impact Funds, and Green Transitions

open access: yesJournal of Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regulators are contemplating or mandating precise measurement of financial climate‐risk exposure to promote sustainable investments. We show that such mandates can be counterproductive in the presence of social funds that catalyze change by subsidizing the adoption of cleaner production technologies.

Dutch dilemma: Housing prices and flood risk exposure

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This article studies the impact of flood risk exposure on housing prices in a major river delta. Analyzing 1.8 million property transactions from 1998 to 2023 in the Netherlands, we find an average price discount of 1.1%. We observe considerable heterogeneity in price effects driven by exposure intensity, institutional settings that vary ...
