Evaluating the realism of double moment parameterised particle size distributions in a midlatitude frontal ice cloud with complex microphysics

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Uncertainties in the representation of ice particle size distributions (PSDs) cause inaccuracies in parameterisations of clouds. In this study, observed PSDs from a midlatitude frontal case study are compared with gamma PSDs with the same concentration and ice water content.

What Does It Take? A Cross‐National Study Exploring Drivers for Willingness to Engage in Effortful Climate Action

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While much is known about what drives general participation in climate action, less is known about the drivers of actions that are explicitly linked to time, resource, or convenience constraints (i.e., effortful climate action). Understanding what drives effortful climate action is important to effectively tackle climate change, as many high ...

Low‐Cost Ambient Pressure Drying Approach for Highly Porous Nanomaterial Structures

Small Methods, EarlyView.
We propose a simple, low‐cost method to dry highly porous nanomaterial structures at ambient temperature and pressure. Using low surface tension solvents, this technique minimizes capillary forces, preventing pore collapse and material shrinkage. This bypasses the need for expensive and size‐limiting critical point drying, enabling scalable production ...

Receptive Meaning‐Recall Knowledge of Derivational Morphology Among EFL Learners: A Case for L1‐Population‐Specific Assessment

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Vocabulary knowledge plays a crucial role in L2 proficiency, significantly impacting learners' reading comprehension. Although extensive research has explored whether knowledge of base words extends to recognition of derivational forms, results are inconsistent, especially among learners from non‐Indo‐European linguistic backgrounds.

The complexity of neighborhood effects: A developmental and ecological framework for violent victimization

Criminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Extensive research has established a link between low self‐control and child victimization. However, the specific neighborhood conditions under which low self‐control most strongly influences victimization have been little examined, and, more importantly, no previous studies have investigated the complex ways in which neighborhood context ...

Vision‐related quality of life following trabeculectomy versus Baerveldt glaucoma implant: Five‐year results from a randomized clinical trial

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the vision‐related quality of life (VRQoL) in glaucoma patients over 5 years after primary Baerveldt glaucoma implant (BGI) or trabeculectomy (TE) using a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial. Methods Patients were randomized to undergo TE or receive a BGI.
