Performative Anchoring Practices and the Making of Belonging in Diaspora
ABSTRACT This article examines how Greekness is constructed and negotiated by a member of the Greek second generation in Italy, a population largely absent from contemporary diaspora scholarship. Through a biographical and socio‐anthropological approach grounded in long‐term ethnographic fieldwork, the study shows how belonging emerges not as inherited

Challenges in the design of tension moored floating wind turbines
In order to harness the extensive offshore wind resource, both in Ireland and in many parts of the world with deep offshore seas, the deployment of wind turbines on floating structures is required. Tension moored floating wind turbines are one type of platform with potential to be used for such deployments. These highly constrained platforms offer many

A climate‐sensitive tropical urbanism under extreme heat†
Tropical urban dwellers face twin climate challenges that impinge on their quality of life: climate overheating and the urban heat island (UHI). The latter superimposed on the former to lead to high levels of thermal discomfort, carbon and energy consequences.

Conventional urban drainage systems are frequently found to contribute to degradation of urban watercourses. The implementation of Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) and associated nature‐based infrastructure is considered one potential solution to mitigate stormwater‐induced degradation.

Abstract The aim of this study was to determine whether inflammatory and vascular responses to passive heating differ between the early follicular phase (EFP) and the mid‐luteal phase (MLP) of the menstrual cycle. Ten healthy, naturally menstruating females (26 ± 3 years of age; body mass index 21.4 ± 1.9 kg/m2) were assessed during EFP and MLP ...

Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this
