Integrated Capsaicin‐Functionalized Superhydrophobic Photothermal Coating for Sustainable Antifouling Control at the Air‐Seawater Interface

Small, EarlyView.
An integrated capsaicin‐functionalized superhydrophobic photothermal coating combines covalently immobilized bioactive functionality and Cassie‐state anti‐adhesion with CNT‐enabled solar heating. This dual‐mode strategy passively suppresses fouling in the dark and promotes photothermal inactivation and detachment under sunlight, delivering broad ...

Assessment of Metal Contamination and Human Health Risk in the Buffalo River Estuary, Eastern Cape, South Africa

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal contamination in estuarine environments poses environmental and public health concerns, particularly where surface waters support domestic and subsistence uses. This study assessed the seasonal distribution, controlling mechanisms, and non‐carcinogenic health risks of selected metals (Mg, Al, Ba, Fe, Mn, and Zn) in the Buffalo River ...

ERT applied to the study of saltwater intrusion

, 2022
Sea water intrusion, or saltwater intrusion (SWI) is a common phenomenon in coastal aquifers. With electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) method, a region’s subsoil can be characterized, leading to pseudo-section maps that allow to differentiate between freshwater and saltwater cavities.

Limited capacity for rapid acclimation to marine heatwaves in coastal invertebrates

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Across 10 coastal invertebrate species, we provide a rare multi‐species test of rapid acclimation to realistic marine heatwaves. Responses are consistently weak, revealing that short‐term plasticity cannot keep pace with warming and may lead to underestimated vulnerability in coastal ecosystems. Abstract Marine heatwaves are increasing in frequency and

Economic Analysis of Infrastructure Investment and Break‐Even Carbon Prices for Low‐Water, Low‐Emission Farming Techniques in Vietnam

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Excessive water use in rice production is a major source of methane emissions, the dominant greenhouse gas from Vietnam's agricultural sector. Improving water‐use efficiency can enhance water security and reduce emissions, but achieving these gains requires substantial changes in farming practices and significant investment in supporting ...

Relationship: Orientation, politics, ethics, and the idea and practice of self‐determination

Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract First Nations people deeply value relational modes of organising politics, governance, and social order that do not feature in European‐derived political ordering or in dominant governance and policy scholarship. While Indigenous peoples have long sought equitable and respectful relationships in the context of forced colonial engagement, the ...

THE VIOLENCE OF FULL COST RECOVERY: Financing Water Infrastructure, and the History and Future of Perpetual Crisis in Mombasa

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Foregrounding the role of finance, this article examines the historical production and future trajectory of the urban water crisis in Mombasa. Drawing on archival research and contemporary fieldwork, it traces how principles of full cost recovery—institutionalized during the colonial period and later reworked through postcolonial ...

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.
