Too Complex to Choose? The Role of Heuristics in Shaping Farmers' Willingness to Pay for Income Stabilization Tool in Italy

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European agriculture is increasingly exposed to economic instability driven by extreme weather events, market volatility, and geopolitical tensions. To manage these growing risks, farmers are encouraged to adopt innovative risk management strategies such as the Income Stabilization Tool (IST), which offers protection against severe income ...

Laboratory Investigations of Iceberg Melting under Wave Conditions in Sea Water

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Changes in the masses of icebergs due to deterioration processes affect the drift of icebergs and should be taken into account when assessing iceberg risks in the areas of offshore development.

Semi-automated open water iceberg detection from Landsat applied to Disko Bay, West Greenland

Journal of Glaciology, 2019
Changes in Greenland's marine-terminating outlet glaciers have led to changes in the flux of icebergs into Greenland's coastal waters, yet icebergs remain a relatively understudied component of the ice-ocean system.

Spatiotemporal distributions of icebergs in a temperate fjord: Columbia Fjord, Alaska [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2019
Much of the world's ice enters the ocean via outlet glaciers terminating in fjords. Inside fjords, icebergs may affect glacier–ocean interactions by cooling incoming ocean waters, enhancing vertical mixing, or providing back stress on the terminus ...

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Icebergs, jigsaw puzzles, and genealogy: automated multi-generational iceberg tracking and lineage reconstruction [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Tabular icebergs calve from ice shelves and glaciers in Antarctica, Greenland, and northern Ellesmere Island. These “ice islands”, as they are referred to in the Arctic, drift, melt, and fragment, contributing freshwater and nutrients to the ocean ...

‘We Are Australia’: Unpacking Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People's Understandings and Experiences of Australian Identity

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are the oldest living custodians in the world. However, Australian identity has been purposefully established to exclude Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, contributing to systemic oppression and harmful consequences. Understanding the perspectives and experiences of Aboriginal and Torres

Australia's Migration Strategy: An Effective Response to Migrant Worker Exploitation?

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A series of publicised migrant worker injuries and deaths has drawn attention to the issue of migrant worker exploitation (MWE) in Australia. In response, the Australian Government has included ‘Tackling Worker Exploitation’ as a key area of its Migration Strategy which it introduced in 2023. However, it is unclear how effective the Strategy’s

How Are Australian Local Governments Responding to the Homelessness Crisis? Findings From a National Study

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Australian local governments are facing intensifying pressures to respond to worsening visible homelessness. This paper presents one of the first national studies on how local governments are responding to these pressures, and the first since the onset of the post‐pandemic housing crisis.

An elastic segment of the whisker shaft enables coding of the whisking phase via whisker torsion in rats and mice

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
An elastic segment was found in the basal part of the whisker shaft in rats and mice. Application of force to the whisker bulb of isolated follicles caused bending and twisting of this segment. Active whisker movements deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflection and selective activation of mechanoreceptors at different phases of whisking ...
