Climate policy support in the UK: An interaction of worldviews and policy types

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 388-413, May 2025.
Abstract Understanding predictors of climate policy support is important for tackling climate change. Previous research demonstrated that policy support is partially driven by cultural worldviews. Yet, treating policies as a homogeneous concept, this literature neglected the existence of different policy types.

Spatio‐Temporal Representation of Mesoscale Convective Systems in Convection‐Permitting Simulations Over Northwestern South America: Insights Into Rainfall Overestimation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 7, 16 April 2025.
Abstract We perform km‐scale convection‐permitting simulations (Δx = 4 km) to represent Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) in Northwestern South America using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. An algorithm to identify and track MCSs was used to characterize simulated MCS features and compare with satellite observations.

Climatological Tracking and Lifecycle Characteristics of Mesoscale Convective Systems in Northwestern South America

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 19, 16 October 2024.
Abstract Mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) are crucial in shaping large‐scale tropical circulation and the hydrological cycle, particularly in Northwestern South America (NwSA), a region marked by complex terrain and significant MCS activity. Understanding MCSs in NwSA is vital due to their impact on precipitation patterns and potential for severe ...

Penal state power in Latin America: Cases, concepts and questions for the political sociology of penality

open access: yesSociology Compass, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Examining penality across different regions and periods of time allows us to develop both a robust empirical imaginary and conceptual understanding of the commonalities and variation in how penal state power operates. In this article I elaborate key dimensions of penality in contemporary Latin America.

Outcomes or participation? Experimentally testing competing sources of legitimacy for taxation

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, Volume 62, Issue 2, Page 563-583, April 2024.
Abstract Legitimacy may result from support for projects that a government implements. However, legitimacy may also result from the opportunity to participate in the selection process of projects. We tested the strength of these competing sources of legitimacy experimentally and their relationship.
