Escape from Noun Complement Clauses in Avatime

open access: yesLanguages
This paper discusses the status of island phenomena in Avatime, an endangered Kwa language of Ghana. We focus on clausal adjuncts, specifically noun complement clauses (NCCs). We show that while standard adjuncts are strong islands in Avatime, NCCs allow

Absence of Clausal Islands in Shupamem

open access: yesLanguages, 2023
Decades-long research on islands has led to the conclusion that island constraints are candidates for language universals. A recent surge in research on islandhood in African languages has revealed some would-be island configurations that are transparent

An experimental evaluation of the effect of escape gaps on the quantity, diversity, and size of fish caught in traps in Montserrat

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Coral reef fisheries are vital to the livelihoods of millions of people worldwide but are challenging to manage due to the high diversity of fish species that are harvested and the multiple types of fishing gear that are used.

Analogue gravity and the island prescription

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
Analogue gravity succeeded to simulate Hawking radiation and test it in laboratories. In this setting, the black hole is simulated by an area in a fluid, say water, where no sound wave can escape the event horizon and phonon oscillations are detected as ...
