Politics and Justice: Aristotle, Rawls, and the Case for Realism in Political Theory

Philosophy &Public Affairs, EarlyView.

Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

Fault‐Controlled Permeability: A Key Parameter in Geothermal Electricity Production Assessment

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geothermal energy is central to the global green energy transition, but its development has long focused on regions with positive thermal anomalies. Through a semi‐quantitative global‐scale review and spatial analysis of 361 geothermal sites, we show that 56.2% of global geothermal electricity production occurs in regions with thermal ...
