That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Sea‐Level Rise Adaptation and Collaboration in Polycentric Governance: A Comparison of Three Regions

open access: yesPublic Administration Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adaptation to sea‐level rise confronts coastal communities worldwide with a new set of collective action problems that require collaboration. When does collaboration result in concrete action for adaptation? To address this question, we combine the Ecology of Games and Collaborative Governance frameworks using a comparative analysis of three ...

Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

Evaluation of fine fescue taxa for sod production: Tensile strength, harvest timing, and comparisons to conventional cool‐season species

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Sod is an important specialty crop used to establish turfgrass and to control soil erosion in new construction and roadsides. Most sod farms in the northern U.S. grow Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.), but recent research indicates potential for growing various low‐input grasses, such as fine fescue taxa (Festuca L. spp.).
