PRECARIZED AGEING‐IN‐PERIFERIA: Low‐Income Older Adults in a Transforming Neighbourhood

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article we investigate how intersecting forms of precarity shape the everyday practices of ageing‐in‐place developed by low‐income older adults in Via Milano, a historically segregated yet rapidly transforming neighbourhood in Brescia, northern Italy. We draw on qualitative and ethnographic research to examine how diverse urban changes—

2D approach for modelling self-potential anomalies. Application to synthetic and real data [PDF]

, 2017
The aim of this work is to present a 2-D Matlab code based on the finite element method for providing numerical modelling of both groundwater flow and self-potential signals.

Assessing the Vulnerability of an Inuit Archaeological Site in a Changing Periglacial Environment: A Novel Multimethod Geophysical Approach in Arctic Geoarchaeology

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With northern regions warming at twice the global rate, assessing the state of archaeological sites in these areas is critically important. In this study, we used a multimethod geophysical approach (ERT, GPR, and EMI) to characterize the current geocryological conditions of an Inuit archaeological site on South Aulatsivik Island (Labrador ...

Imaging Point Source Groundwater Discharges in a Confined Coastal Aquifer Using Electrical Resistivity

Groundwater, EarlyView.
Marine electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is applied to characterize point‐source submarine groundwater discharge (PSGD) along NW Yucatán. ERT observations and forward modeling constrain conduit detectability under varying hydrogeological conditions.

Identification of leachate infiltration and its flow pathway in landfill by means of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT)

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2020
Sanitary landfills are a well-planned engineering work for final disposal of municipal solid waste in order to minimize the environmental impacts in soil and groundwater. Therefore, several control systems are installed such as liners and leachate and biogas collectors.

The Interactive Impact of Regulation, Entrepreneurship, and Cultural Values on Technology Adoption: Renewable Energy in the EU

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract How can diverse sources legitimize new technology when it lacks economic parity? Government policies that endorse nascent technologies play a central role through regulatory legitimation. Yet, we know less about whether inducement policies that incentivize adoption or imposition policies that mandate it are more effective, and how that ...

Using Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) as a tool in geotechnical investigation of the substrate of a highway

Studia Quaternaria, 2014
Abstract Geological and geotechnical engineering field tests, like structure drillings and dynamic (DPL, DPSH) or static probing (CPT), are considered for a fundamental source of information about soil and water environments. Since Eurocode 7 has been introduced, it has become more common to use also dilatometers (DMT) or pressure meters (PMT ...

Cross‐education of lower limb muscle strength following resistance exercise training in males and females: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cross‐education describes the training of one limb that leads to performance enhancements in the contralateral untrained limb, driven by neural changes rather than muscle adaptation. In this systematic review and meta‐analysis, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of cross‐education (vs. a control group) via resistance exercise training (RET) for

Resistivity and self-potential tomography applied to groundwater remediation and contaminant plumes: Sandbox and field experiments [PDF]

, 2015
Geophysical methods can be used to remotely characterize contaminated sites and monitor in situ enhanced remediation processes. We have conducted one sandbox experiment and one contaminated field investigation to show the robustness of electrical ...
