A typology of marine and estuarine hazards and risks as vectors of change : a review for vulnerable coasts and their management [PDF]
, 2014 This paper illustrates a typology of 14 natural and anthropogenic hazards, the evidence for their causes and consequences for society and their role as vectors of change in estuaries, vulnerable coasts and marine areas.

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper reports on the excavation of a cache of stone artefacts, buried on the bank of a waterhole or ‘billabong’ in central western Queensland. This is an extremely rare find, and yet it is the second such site to be reported within less than a 10 km radius.

Justice‐centred climate change education and territory
British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract In a globalised world, education faces challenges that go far beyond professional training, where social responsibility and the inclusion of heterogeneous communities and territories in all levels of education have become a greater focus of the university and of scientific research, setting the stage for more inclusive public policies. Greater
