Evidence for Basement Reactivation during the Opening of the Labrador Sea from the Makkovik Province, Labrador, Canada: Insights from Field Data and Numerical Models

Geosciences, 2018
The onshore exposures adjacent to modern, offshore passive continental margins may preserve evidence of deformation from the pre-, syn-, and post-rift phases of continental breakup that allow us to investigate the processes associated with and ...

Morphometric analysis of the submarine arc volcano Monowai (Tofua - Kermadec Arc) to decipher tecteno-magnetic interactions

, 2014
Morphometric analysis of multibeam bathymetry and backscatter data is applied to Monowai, a submarine volcano of the active Tofua – Kermadec Arc to map and document the structure and evolution of the volcanic centre.

Micrometre-scale deformation observations reveal fundamental controls on geological rifting [PDF]

, 2016
Many of the world’s largest volcanic eruptions are associated with geological rifting where major fractures open at the Earth’s surface, yet fundamental controls on the near-surface response to the rifting process are lacking.

What is social science if not critical?

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
Abstract This short article represents a contribution to the debate on the motion “Social science is explanation, or it is nothing.” While in the format of parliamentary debating the contribution would fall on the side of the opposition, I will not be arguing against explanation as such.

Sedimentogenesis and geodynamics in the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary at the epoch of continental peneplanation. Article 1. Central and Eastern Eurasia

Литосфера, 2015
In Central and Northeast Eurasia, we describe the sedimentation and tectonic regime of a subglobal epoch of land peneplanation, which at the latest Cretaceous and at the earliest Paleogene covered all continents.

Intra‐Seasonal Crop Management and the Potential Benefit of Seasonal Precipitation Forecasts: Farm‐Level Embedded Risk Analysis in Ethiopia

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How large is the potential benefit for farmers from obtaining forecasts of total rainfall in the upcoming season? This critically depends on the local farm system and the crop management actions available to farmers to respond to the forecasts issued. Studies assessing the financial value of seasonal precipitation forecasts have so far focused

Genomic Investigations Unveil the Genetic Underpinnings of Environmental Adaptation in African Goat Populations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study integrates genomics and landscape genetics to analyze African goat environmental adaptation. Analyzing 1591 samples, it finds population structure differentiates geographically into four groups, with gene flow between wild Yura goats and North Africans.

The Earliest Feathers from the Lower Cretaceous Dabeigou Formation of North Hebei: Implications for the Early Evolution of the Jehol Biota

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study reports two isolated feather fossils from the Lower Cretaceous Dabeigou Formation in northeastern China. Morphological analyses identified them as the earliest known feathered theropods (potentially including avian) in the Jehol Biota. This finding reveals a complex ecosystem at the dawn of the Jehol Biota, bridging the temporal and faunal ...

Reporting Control Deficiencies in Repeat Internal Audit Engagements*

Accounting Perspectives, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 7-20, March 2025.
ABSTRACT This study examines the reporting of control deficiencies in repeat internal audit engagements. Experienced internal auditors were presented with a hypothetical case in which they were asked about the likelihood of reporting an internal control deficiency discovered last year but which was, “through an oversight,” not reported to company ...

The electoral politics of immigration and crime

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Concern that immigration worsens crime problems is prevalent across Western publics. How does it shape electoral politics? Prior research asserted a growing left–right divide in immigration attitudes and voting behavior due to educational realignment.
