Relational and feminist pedagogic approaches for developing engagement and inclusion of girls at risk of exclusion in England

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper highlights the inclusive potential of relational and feminist pedagogic strategies in education, focusing on girls at risk of exclusion. Girls in England are less likely than boys to be suspended or permanently excluded from school, but numbers are increasing.

Locating earthquakes with surface waves and centroid moment tensor estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Traditionally, P wave arrival times have been used to locate regional earthquakes. In contrast, the travel times of surface waves dependent on source excitation and the source parameters and depth must be determined independently.

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Falling in Love with Waves [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2014
Desire to understand the physics of natural grandeur and the beauty of wave theories brought me to geophysics and seismology. Advancements in theory, practice, and instrumentation have allowed seismologists to unravel the mysteries carried by seismic waves and to use the acquired knowledge for the benefit of society.
