Narrative power in the narrative policy framework

open access: yesPolicy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The Narrative Policy Framework lacks clear and empirical explanations of power. Yet, the study of narratives is inherently the study of power in shaping policy outputs and decisions. We develop a conceptual model positing that expressions of power (power to, with, and over) may be discovered in narrative constructs (e.g., narrative structure ...

BARITE SAG UNDER DYNAMIC AND ELEVATED TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS: EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES AND MATHEMATICAL MODELING [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Barite sag is an undesired occurrence that causes density variation in the wellbore. It is a problem that is related to both fluid property (mainly rheology) and drilling practices, and it arises mostly in invert emulsion muds.

Individual and combined effects of shading and habitat complexity on benthic macroinvertebrate communities in a mesocosm stream experiment (São Paulo, Brazil)

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Agricultural activities are a major driver of biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation in subtropical streams, often altering macroinvertebrate community structure and associated ecosystem functions. Although restoration strategies increasingly target these impacts, the relative importance of riparian shading and in‐stream ...

Disturbance legacies in arid environments shape recovery of former agricultural land

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Increasingly, arid agricultural land is being permanently taken out of irrigated production due to more frequent drought, higher temperatures, and the overconsumption of groundwater, with important ramifications for ecological recovery.

Combined sensor of dielectric constant and visible and near infrared spectroscopy to measure soil compaction using artificial neural networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Soil compaction is a widely spread problem in agricultural soils that has negative agronomic and environmental impacts. The former may lead to poor crop growth and yield, whereas the latter may lead to poor hydraulic properties of soils, and high risk to

Differential growth dynamics of common salt marsh species Spartina alterniflora and Juncus roemerianus under varied sediment amendments

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Many coastal wetlands are at high risk of degradation or loss due to sea‐level rise. Restoration techniques for maintaining coastal marshes are paramount, with thin‐layer placement (TLP) emerging as one feasible solution. Despite TLP's utilization, additional research is needed on species‐ and sediment‐specific responses ...

Frequency‐dependent contraction rates for the Bayesian method to the inverse source problem

open access: yesTransactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract This paper addresses an inverse source problem for acoustic waves in a range of frequencies. Our study has two main goals. First, although the problem is severely ill‐posed with a logarithmic stability estimate, we demonstrate, through careful analysis of the forward map's singular values, that increasing the frequency range enhances stability,

Utilization of Thermally Modified Water Treatment Plant Sludge as an Adsorbent for Fluoride Removal

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 36, Issue 1, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of fluoride (F−) at high concentrations in drinking water is a global concern due to its adverse health effects. This study evaluated the removal of F− ions by adsorption using an adsorbent produced from thermally modified water treatment plant sludge (TWTPS), providing an efficient and low‐cost alternative for contaminated water ...
