Integration Through Rights: Towards an Associational Paradigm

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
Integration policies in the EU and the UK have over the past two decades increasingly emphasised duties and constraints for migrants. This article challenges the duty‐based model and proposes an alternative legal conception: ‘integration through rights’, with associational rights taking a central role.

A wind proxy based on migrating dunes at the Baltic coast: statistical analysis of the link between wind conditions and sand movement [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics, 2017
We statistically analyse the relationship between the structure of migrating dunes in the southern Baltic and the driving wind conditions over the past 26 years, with the long-term aim of using migrating dunes as a proxy for past wind conditions at ...

Intellectual Property Restitution

open access: yesThe Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
In Europe, open GLAM movements and cultural restitution reforms are overlooking a crucial aspect that should not be underestimated: what should happen to the archival materials, digital collections and intellectual property that are indelibly linked to cultural property.

Sand dune migration and flux into the lower Helmand and Arghandab valleys

open access: yesSedimentologika
In the Helmand/Sistan basin in south-west Afghanistan, aeolian sediment movement impacts the environment, irrigation canals, agriculture, and fluvial systems.

VOID URBANISM: Unbuilt New Cities and State Formation in the Democratic Republic of Congo

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Based on an analysis of the planning process behind Kitoko City in the Democratic Republic of Congo—a new city project officially launched in 2019 but never implemented—this article examines the political, social, and spatial effects generated by urban initiatives that remain at the stage of intention. It investigates how such unbuilt projects

Barchan Slipface Grainflows: Characteristics and Kinematics

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
Gravity‐driven grainflows on aeolian dunes are important agents of sand transport on Earth and Mars but have been the focus of few field studies. We present results from the first comprehensive field study to evaluate hypotheses posed by previous studies:

Taxonomic and functional diversity of noctuoid moths in a Mediterranean coastal area: implications for dune conservation in a long‐term ecological research eLTER site

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the taxonomic and functional diversity of noctuoid moths in a protected coastal dune system in Central Italy, revealing strong ecological associations between moth assemblages and dune zonation. Differences in species composition and trait attributes, along with the presence of habitat‐exclusive species, highlight the role of ...

Recent Dune Migration Along the Coastal Plain of Canoa Quebrada, Ceará State, Northeast Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Geography, 2019
In the coastal area of Ceará State, northeast Brazil, there are large mobile dunefields, including barchans, barchanoid dunes and sandsheets. The migration rate of these dunes, as measured by several studies, varies between 32 m/y and 9 m/y.

Equilibrium distance from long-range dune interactions [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Flow perturbations induced by dune topography affect sediment transport locally but can also be felt over long distances, altering the dynamics of isolated neighbouring dunes downstream. In order to work under optimal conditions that eliminate transverse

What drives migration of riverbed sand dunes? [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2014
Depending on grain size, river sediments fall into two main groups: wash load (grains that never fall out of suspension) and bed load (sediment that rests on the riverbed). Bed load sediment, similarly, can be either resting on the riverbed or temporarily in suspension, at which point it is known as suspended load.
