Modulation of wind drag by tidal currents in an embayment

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Tidal currents modulate how wind energy enters the surface wave field by influencing both wave drag and wave generation. In Shark Bay, following currents reduce effective wave steepness and wind drag, and opposing currents enhance wave growth. Wind energy is partitioned between wave drag and the creation of new waves, explaining observed tidal ...

From Plot to Block: Participatory Land Use for Climate‐Resilient Detached Housing in Finland

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how urban planning in Finland is adapting to climate change, focusing on the practical challenges planners face in single‐family housing areas. It draws on participatory workshops with municipal planners in Pori and Joensuu, where three planning tools—green factor metrics, impermeable surface limits, and the 3–30‐300 ...

Prescriptive Positivism: Discourse on Sustainable Development Goal Interactions and Perspectives for a Post‐2030 World

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are unlikely to be achieved by 2030, prompting debate about what should follow. Beyond revision, there is a need to critically examine what values and assumptions have shaped how the SDGs are conceptualised and operationalised.

Sustainability Practices by the Banking Sector to Support Small Organizations Toward SDG 9

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The banking sector plays a critical role in fostering sustainability by directing capital toward environmentally and socially responsible projects. Yet, there is a perceived need for studies that shed some light on their activities in this field.

Financial Inclusion for Smallholders: Integrating a Resource Nexus Approach Into Agricultural Finance Systems

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers remain structurally excluded from the current agricultural finance system. Existing research in this area examines financial inclusion through fragmented environmental, social, and economic lenses, limiting system‐level understanding.

Approaching Gold‐Standard Sensitivity in a Portable and Versatile Gold Nanoprisms Thermoplasmonic Platform for Lateral Flow Detection of Biomolecules

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study presents a plasmonic thermal lateral flow (ThermoLFA) biosensor for ultrasensitive, early detection of biomolecules. By combining plasmonic gold nanoprisms (AuNPrs) and near‐infrared (NIR) laser activation, it enhances signal output beyond conventional LFAs.

Can smart cards reduce payments fraud and identity theft? [PDF]

open access: yes
In the United States, when a consumer presents a payment to a merchant, the merchant typically makes a request for authorization before accepting the payment. Personal information, such as an account number, address, or telephone number, are often enough

Ferromagnetic Cobalt Oxide With Structural Distortion and Oxidation State Changes for Hydrogen Sulfide Gas Detection

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
High H2S gas sensitivity was improved by electrochemically engineering Co3O4/CoO heterostructures with oxygen vacancies and aligning nanosized particles via magnetic‐field‐assisted deposition. This alignment enhanced gas diffusion and electron transport, reducing base resistance. The resulting sensor exhibited high selectivity and a strong response (Rg/
