Addressing Barriers to Fair Community Participation in Mangrove Carbon Credit Projects: Insights From Thailand

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thailand has announced ambitious plans to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including a programme that allows private companies to earn carbon credits from protecting and restoring mangroves. In 2023, the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources (DMCR) began enrolling local communities and private firms in this scheme.

Observational Cosmology

open access: yes, 2004
I discuss the classical cosmological tests-- angular size-redshift, flux-redshift, and galaxy number counts-- in the light of the cosmology prescribed by the intepretation of CMB anisotropies. The discussion is somewhat of a primer for physicists, with emphasis upon the possible systematic uncertainties in the observations and their interpretation ...

Unified Dark Matter scalar field models with fast transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate the general properties of Unified Dark Matter (UDM) scalar field models with Lagrangians with a non-canonical kinetic term, looking specifically for models that can produce a fast transition between an early Einstein-de Sitter CDM-like era

Spiritual Cannibalism in HRD: How Workplace Spirituality Devours Sacred Traditions

open access: yesHuman Resource Development Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper interrogates how the discourse of workplace spirituality in human resource development (HRD) operates as a tool of colonization. Through a systematic review of 48 articles published between 1997 and March 2025, the study uncovers recurring patterns of spiritual appropriation in which non‐Western traditions are detached from their ...

Thin‐film lithium niobate photonics: Frontiers in millimeter‐wave and terahertz generation and integrated applications

open access: yesInfoScience, EarlyView.
With the advancement of 6G communications, high‐precision radar, and advanced imaging technologies, there is a growing demand for compact, high‐performance light sources capable of generating high‐frequency radio waves (millimeter‐wave and terahertz waves). This article systematically introduces how to efficiently generate these high‐frequency waves on

Do cultural taboos regulate hunting in transitioning Indigenous communities? The case of the Idu Mishmi of Northeast India

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract There is rising recognition of resource‐use rights of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) within wildlife conservation. Historically, sociocultural institutions ensured wildlife sustainability in many IPLC areas. However, the future viability of such institutions is uncertain as IPLCs change in response to external pressures and ...

Observer in Quantum Cosmology

open access: yes
Within the framework of the new formalism of quantum theory - the quantum principle of least action - the initial state of the universe is determined, which is an analogue of the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary wave function. The quantum evolution of the universe is modified by additional conditions in a certain compact region of space-time, which is called
