Suárez on the Contingency of Causal Origin

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 112, Issue 3, Page 694-706, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Do individuals have their actual causal origins necessarily? Or could one and the same individual also have had a causal origin other than its actual one?

Stemflow Dynamics in the Jamari National Forest (Brazilian Amazon): II. Solute Concentrations and Flux Dynamics

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Trees can redirect large volumes of rainwater to the base of their stems. This stemflow not only redistributes water but also channels canopy‐derived solutes to the forest floor. Building on research showing canopy geometry and bark properties govern stemflow volumes, we examined how those same traits modulate the biogeochemical side of this flux. Over

Large‐Amplitude Periodic Solutions to the Steady Euler Equations With Piecewise Constant Vorticity

open access: yesStudies in Applied Mathematics, Volume 156, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT We consider steady solutions to the incompressible Euler equations in a two‐dimensional channel with rigid walls. The flow consists of two periodic layers of constant vorticity separated by an unknown interface. Using global bifurcation theory, we rigorously construct curves of solutions that terminate either with stagnation on the interface ...

From Voltaire's Quakers to John Boyle's Methodists: Religious Dispute, Bardolatry, and ‘Patriot Enthusiasm’

open access: yesJournal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 345-363, December 2024.
Abstract Through the prism of Voltaire's letters on the Quakers (1733) and John Boyle's riposte in his preface to Father Brumoy's The Greek Theatre (1759), some Shakespeare criticism of the period is shown to have drawn on issues of religious controversy, in this case, Methodist enthusiasm, to formulate some of the principal tenets of fledgling ...

Abstract Teachers' Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES), since its development, has gained much popularity because of its adequate psychometric properties. Yet, scholarly information on the soundness of this instrument in the African context has not been documented.

Philosophy's past: Cognitive values and the history of philosophy

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 585-606, May 2024.
Abstract Recent authors hold that the role of historical scholarship within contemporary philosophical practice is to question current assumptions, to expose vestiges or to calibrate intuitions. On these views, historical scholarship is dispensable, since these roles can be achieved by nonhistorical methods.
