Vessels of Solidarity: The Material Politics of Civil Sea Rescue Ships

Antipode, Volume 57, Issue 6, Page 2465-2483, November 2025.
Abstract This article theorises ships as material carriers of transversal solidarity, based on the specific case of civil sea rescue vessels in the Mediterranean. My argument derives from eight months of fieldwork as an engaged activist‐ethnographer amongst civil sea rescue actors in Europe.

Synergistic use of Lagrangian dispersion and radiative transfer modelling with satellite and surface remote sensing measurements for the investigation of volcanic plumes: the Mount Etna eruption of 25–27 October 2013 [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2016
In this paper we combine SO2 and ash plume dispersion modelling with satellite and surface remote sensing observations to study the regional influence of a relatively weak volcanic eruption from Mount Etna on the optical and micro-physical properties ...

Whole‐genome data shed light on speciation and within‐species differentiation of the Papilio machaon complex around the Mediterranean Basin

Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 692-712, October 2025.
Genomic data refine the species boundary of Papilio machaon and confirm the species status of Papilio saharae, with clarification of subspecies delineation of Mediterranean machaon and saharae. A heterogeneous level of genome‐wide heterozygosity between island and continental lineages warrants further taxonomic implications, and there is also evidence ...

Combining bioengineering and plant conservation on a Mediterranean islet

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2012
This paper reports the results of a bioengineering intervention within the Mediterranean Basin carried out at Lampedusa Island (Strait of Sicily) on the “Spiaggia dei Conigli”, the only sand shore of all Sicilian territory where the sea turtle Caretta ...

An Island’s Lazy Eye. Interweaving Pedagogical Dimensions in Fire at Sea

Studi sulla Formazione, 2020
In this study, the two authors focus on the analysis of Gianfranco Rosi’s documentary film Fire At Sea in which a child, just as a contemporary Virgil, becomes the narrator of an emblematic historical context and peculiar socio-cultural dynamics.

‘A wonderful day and a wonderful crossing!’: Internment (im)mobilities, ambivalence, and the residual tourist gaze in Second World War Britain

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 50, Issue 3, September 2025.
Short Abstract 1940 saw the mass internment of so‐called ‘enemy aliens’ within Britain; this meant that innocent civilians were incarcerated in camps across the country, particularly within the tourist spaces of the Isle of Man. We interrogate how the holiday—as a geography of ideas, spaces, practices movements and sensibilities—became a frame of ...

Secondary metabolites of Thymelaea hirsuta, a plant collected from the Sicilian Island of Lampedusa

Natural Product Research, 2020
An investigation of the secondary metabolites was carried out on Thymelaea hirsuta collected from Lampedusa, the largest island of the Pelagie archipelago, located about 100 km from the North African coast and 200 km from the coast of Sicily. Ten compounds were isolated and found to belong to different classes of natural products as chromenes ...

Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) Along the Coast of Israel: Abundance and Social Structure

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The dynamics of cetacean populations profoundly shape the survival and well‐being of their members, particularly in nutrient‐deficient and anthropogenically impacted regions like the eastern Mediterranean Sea. The common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus), one of the most extensively studied cetaceans, exhibits complex and diverse social ...

Absent Tech: Data, Violence and (Non)Credibility at the EU Borders

International Migration, Volume 63, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The digitisation of borders has permeated academic and political debates, the image of ‘digital fortress Europe’ becoming normalised and taken for granted. This ‘taken for grantedness’, however, clashes with the reality on the ground and has important implications for migrants' rights and credibility.

“Which Data Am I?”. The Making of Migrants' Scattered Subjectivities and the Impossibility of Giving an Account of Oneself

International Migration, Volume 63, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper interrogates the making of digital subjectivities that stem from the multiple data extractions that migrants experience. It argues that the digitalisation of the border regime does not produce data doubles as discrete and intelligible objects of knowledge; rather, it generates scattered digital subjectivities. Relatedly, it contends
