Housing the homeless: How revisiting the 1940s assists the struggle

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, Volume 57, Issue 4, Page 798-811, December 2022., 2022
Abstract A major obstacle in the political work of housing the homeless is convincing voters and lawmakers that housing is a right and should be available to all without conditions. This paper seeks to assist that project by showing that the tension between rights and conditions has a history. It focusses on the pivotal 1940s, which saw the first major

The fossil record of igneous rock [PDF]

open access: yesEarth-Science Reviews, 2020
A growing awareness of life in deep igneous crust expands our appreciation for life's distribution in the upper geosphere through time and space, and extends the known inhabitable realm of Earth an ...

Response of riparian vegetation to short‐ and long‐term hydrologic variation

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 8, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Increasing demand for river water now conflicts with an increasing desire to maintain riparian ecosystems. Efficiently managing river flows for riparian vegetation requires an understanding of the time scale of flow effects, but this information is limited by the absence of long‐term studies of vegetation change in response to flow variation ...

Source areas of the Eastern Ebro Valley loess (NE Iberian Peninsula): Heavy mineral composition as a provenance indicator

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 47, Issue 15, Page 3611-3628, December 2022., 2022
The loess provenance areas of the Ebro and Móra basins are mainly the fluvial terraces of the Middle and Lower Ebro River, respectively, according to the analyses of very heavy minerals and particle size. The wind transport distances are relatively short (<100 km).

Linking uplift, erosion, and sedimentation using landscape evolution models: Madagascar since the Late Cretaceous

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 215-229, January 2023., 2023
This paper uses a numerical landscape evolution model to reconstruct the topographic history of Madagascar since the Late Cretaceous. The model is optimised by balancing the volumes of onshore erosion and offshore sedimentation; the former is predicted with erosion laws and based on uplift history inferred from elevated planation surfaces.

Selenium in certain igneous rocks [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1973
The selenium contents of the igneous rocks from Finland and Iceland and a few from West-Greenland studied in this paper can be tentatively summed as follows: The selenium content shows a general tendency to decrease when passing from a basic to a more ...

Spontaneous imbibition in igneous rocks: effect of KCl concentration, confining pressure, and imbibition direction

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2020
Understanding spontaneous imbibition helps to determine the fracturing fluid volume and optimize the flowback design. At present, many studies have mainly focused on shale, but few on igneous rocks.

Direct numerical simulation of “fountain filling box” flow with a confined weak laminar plane fountain

open access: yesHeat Transfer, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 193-215, January 2023., 2023
Abstract A “fountain filling box” flow produced by discharging a weak laminar plane fountain in a confined open channel is studied numerically. Two‐dimensional direct numerical simulations were performed for weak plane fountains. The development of the fountain flow experiences five stages; the initial upflow and the subsequent downflow after the ...
