Individual variability in activity patterns in Atlantic halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) revealed using pop‐up satellite tags

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding fish behaviour and activity patterns is essential for interpreting their ecology and the processes that shape population dynamics, yet such information remains limited for wild fishes because observing individuals in situ is challenging.

Navigating troubled waters: Posthumanist vulnerability and entanglement in Richard Powers's Playground (2024)

Orbis Litterarum, EarlyView.
Abstract Richard Powers's most recent novels to date—The Overstory (2018), Bewilderment (2021), and Playground (2024)—engage with some of the environmental and technological threats that loom over our planet, such as deforestation, species loss, the degradation of the ocean bottom, and the risks associated with the development of generative AI ...

Numerical Simulation of a Sandy Seabed Response to Water Surface Waves Propagating on Current

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018
An integrated numerical model is developed to study wave and current-induced seabed response and liquefaction in a flat seabed. The velocity-inlet wave-generating method is adopted in the present study and the finite difference method is employed to ...

Expert opinions regarding the concept of blue carbon in seaweed systems

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY A collection of expert opinions critically evaluates the role of seaweed in blue carbon strategies for climate change mitigation. While the concept of fast‐growing seaweed to capture atmospheric carbon is appealing, the experts largely agree that its potential for direct, long‐term carbon sequestration is currently overstated and faces ...

From credits to coherence: Applying the policy coherence approach to prevent problem‐shifting in the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract Carbon crediting mechanisms can deliver cost‐effective climate mitigation but risk ‘problem‐shifting’ by worsening environmental harms such as biodiversity loss and water pollution. This article assesses whether the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (PACM) is better equipped than the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) to prevent such trade ...

The international climate change regime and general principles of law

Review of European, Comparative &International Environmental Law, EarlyView.
Abstract The Climate Change Advisory Opinion (AO) by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) demonstrates the growing prominence of general principles of law in international law. The Climate Change AO was handed down at the end of the International Law Commission's project on general principles of law with the adoption of its Draft Conclusions.

Specialized Committees of International Organizations an Important Source of Organizational Autonomy

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assigning the preparation of decisions to specialized committees composed of member state representatives is a widespread response to the ‘governor's dilemma’, that is, the tension between competence and control, in international organizations (IOs). We theorize a causal mechanism referring to self‐selection and agenda‐setting effects and show

XBTs Provide First‐Order Characterization of Seabed Physical Properties

Earth and Space Science
Expendable Bathythermographs (XBTs) are oceanographic instruments that fall through the ocean's water column and measure ocean temperature with depth. In many instances, however, XBTs continue to record temperature after they impact the seabed.
