On Wind Directions Estimated by Nacelle Lidar Under Different Reconstruction Methods

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The wind direction is closely linked to the power performance and structural loads of wind turbines. Conventional nacelle‐mounted vanes or sonic anemometers face errors associated with airflow distortions caused by turbine blades. Nacelle‐mounted lidar systems offer line‐of‐sight speed measurements from multiple positions ahead of the rotor ...

From wells to windmills: Resource redeployment and new technology investment in the energy sector

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, Volume 47, Issue 2, Page 616-642, February 2026.
Abstract Research Summary This study examines how multi‐business firms redeploy resources following an industry shock. Using the case of oil and gas firms diversified into wind power, I show that firms reduced expenditure in oil and gas—particularly on complex offshore projects—while increasing investment in wind after the 2014 oil price crash.

Evaluating Antibiotic Resistance in Urban Rivers and Coral Reefs of Belize: Evidence for Hotspots and a Potential Screening Tool

open access: yesGeoHealth, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Antibiotic resistance is a significant threat to global public health and can disproportionately affect low‐ and middle‐ income countries (LMICs). There is a lack of studies focusing on antibiotic resistance in coral reef regions and environmental reservoirs in Central America.

Assemblage, archive, and ancestor: Developing more‐than‐human historical geography with salmon

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 1, February 2026.
This paper interrogates recent geographic literature on the more‐than‐human archive and argues that there needs to be more specificity when conceptualising and researching the more‐than‐human. It then answers this call for specificity by theorising three modes of more‐than‐human historical geography that are developed through empirical encounters with ...
