Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Local environmental politics in China is often said to be dominated by state‐controlled modes of multi‐level governance. However, top‐down governance is embedded within and transformed by local politics, adding complexity to governance practices and environmental outcomes.

Sluicing and Multiple Wh-fronting. [PDF]
, 2009 This paper explores multiple wh-fronting under Sluicing. Contrary to previous proposals that an interrogative +wh complementizer licenses TP-ellipsis, I propose that +focus feature licenses this ellipsis operation.

Mitigating the Impact of Drought on Inland Water Transport: A System Dynamics Approach
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In recent years, droughts have disrupted goods transport on Dutch waterways, causing production losses in the hinterland and reputational damage to inland water transport (IWT). As future droughts are expected to be more extreme, the question is how IWT can stay reliable.

〈Articles〉 Silence Speaks ― A Minimalist Analysis of Multiple Sluicing ― [PDF]
, 2015 This paper aims to explore a possible alternative analysis of multiple sluicing within the framework of the minimalist program. It is surprising that multiple sluicing, where more than one wh-phrase is left with some parts deleted by sluicing, is ...

STRATIFIED ADAPTATION: Infrastructure, Elevation, and Cascading Floods in the Urban Mekong Delta
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Flood‐prone cities in the global South are increasingly the target of infrastructure projects aimed at building climate ‘resilience’. At the same time, residents of these cities take adaptation to flooding into their own hands. In this article we examine the interrelationship between household‐scale and urban‐scale flood mitigation projects in

Physics of Fluids, 2023 The present paper deals with two open issues concerning the free orifice flow under vertical sluice gates, namely, the flow stability at large gate openings and the disambiguation of multiple solutions in the case of partial dam-break. The study of these problems, which are mutually connected, is based on ad hoc laboratory experiments and numerical ...

Movement Behaviour of Three Rheophilic Cyprinids in a Culvert‐Fragmented Stream
Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2027.ABSTRACT Many freshwater fish species rely on movement across unobstructed river systems to complete their life cycles. However, anthropogenic activities such as river regulation, dams, and culverts increasingly restrict fish movements by compromising river connectivity and altering habitat characteristics.

A framework for investigating fish population density responses to habitat fragmentation
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 11, November 2026.Globally, fish populations that rely on rivers are being fragmented by in‐stream barriers, but it is unclear how pervasive any negative population responses to fragmentation are. We developed a modeling framework for estimating density responses of fishes upstream and downstream of in‐stream barriers and applied it to learn how low‐head dams have ...

Sluicing, Sprouting and Missing Objects
, 2017 Taking “sluicing” to be derived by movement + deletion, as represented by Merchant (2001), and “pseudo-sluicing” to be a base-generated structure [pro (+be) + wh] (going by Wei 2004; Adams 2004), this paper reviews arguments for and against the presence ...

Multiple Sluicing and SWIPING Meet RT-based Experimental Syntax
Studies in Linguistics, 2017 The main purpose of this paper to scrutinize to what extent advanced L2 learners would differ from L1 speakers in the anticipation, integration, and repair of syntactic information during sentence processing. For this purpose, we conducted two on-line self-paced reading experiments for processing multiple Sluicing (or TP ellipsis) with two PP remnants ...
