Nonequilibrium characteristics in all-superconducting tunnel structures
, 2006 We study the nonequilibrium characteristics of superconducting tunnel structures in the case when one of the superconductors is a small island confined between large superconductors. The state of this island can be probed for example via the supercurrent

Islandness within climate change narratives of small island developing states (SIDS)
, 2018 Small island developing states (SIDS) are portrayed as icons of climate change impacts, with assumed islandness characteristics being used to emphasise vulnerability. Meanwhile, island resilience expressed as the stability of island “paradises” is said

Light‐Controlled Reversible Coassembly of Hybrid Functional Nanostructures
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Light‐responsive hybrid nanostructures are formed by coassembling azobenzene‐ and PAH‐functionalized nanoparticles through reversible an tunable π interactions. The system enables tunable coupling between distinct components such as gold and magnetite or carbon nanotubes, producing switchable optical and magnetic properties under light and magnetic ...

Exploring the relationship between tourism and offshore finance in small island economies: lessons from Jersey [PDF]
Many islands host tourism and offshore finance but research tends to focus on either industry without examining the nature of the relationship(s) between these two where they co-exist.

Far better to serve in heaven than to reign in hell : the logic of incorporation in the European communities by a very small developing country : Malta, a case study [PDF]
, 1992 In spite of the rhetoric of viability and endogenously led growth and development, small states are generally resigned to a status of dependency, surviving as rentier economies and remi ttance societies.

A global synthesis of the small-island effect in habitat islands
Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 2018 Habitat loss and fragmentation are considered to be the leading drivers of biodiversity loss. The small-island effect (SIE) can be used to predict species extinctions resulting from habitat loss and has important implications for species conservation ...
