Brokers, Collaborators and Knowledge Translators: Expanding the Role of Research Assistants in Geographic Research

Asia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While ‘local’ research assistants (RA) often play a key role in knowledge production in fieldwork‐based disciplines like geography, their role and agency often remain silenced. This paper brings together scholarship in feminist geography and critical development studies to reposition RAs as brokers, collaborators, and knowledge translators.

Biogeochemical, sedimentological and dinoflagellate‐based reconstruction of the Holocene palaeoenvironment of the east Limfjord, Denmark

Boreas, EarlyView.
To assess how the eastern part of the Limfjord system has changed over the Holocene, relative to the wider Limfjord and western Baltic region, a sedimentary succession spanning c. 9600–150 cal. a BP was collected from Nibe Bredning, near Sebbersund, from a shallow coastal inlet along the eastern connection between the Limfjord and the Kattegat (north ...

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

Fathers, Mothers, Sons, and Daughters: Parent–Child Relationships and the Intergenerational Transmission of Divorce

Family Relations, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study examines whether and how post‐divorce mother–son, mother–daughter, father–son, and father–daughter relationships buffer or amplify the intergenerational transmission of divorce (ITD). Background Children who experience parental divorce are more likely to divorce themselves, yet not all children are affected in the same way.

English Language Education in Rural Contexts: Examining Students’ Perceptions and Motivation Through a Contextually Grounded Extracurricular Program

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We conducted this case study in Türkiye to examine how a contextually grounded extracurricular program shaped rural students’ perceptions of English and their motivation to learn and use the language. Recognizing motivation as an equity‐related concern in rural contexts, where students may have limited opportunities to perceive the local ...

Characteristics of Lamb Wave Propagation on a Nanoscale Membrane Induced by a Laser Ultrasonic Technique [PDF]

한국정밀공학회지
A lamb wave propagation behavior on a freestanding nanoscale membrane was investigated using a laser ultrasonic technique in the present study. A 110-nm thick aluminum (Al) layer was deposited on a rectangular 200-nm thick silicon nitride (SiN) membrane ...

Non-Semisimple Degeneracy of Lamb Waves

Mechanics of Solids
Abstract Anomalous guided waves appearing at a non-semisimple degeneracy of the fundamental matrix are observed and analyzed in the framework of the Cauchy sextic formalism. The non-semisimple degeneracy condition is explicitly constructed for the most general case of Lamb waves propagating in a traction-free ...

A process‐temporal perspective on organizational paradoxes: A review and future research agenda

International Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Scholars are increasingly studying paradox processes, yet insights remain disconnected, with limited discussion across studies’ perspectives. Consequently, research risks underutilizing valuable findings, thereby reducing both theoretical and practical progress.
