Civil Society Advocacy and Climate Change in Kenya: The Question of “Local Voices” and Their “Amplification”

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of civil society organizations (CSOs) in addressing climate change is acknowledged, but engagement with questions of voice remains limited, especially in the Global South. Addressing this, this paper zooms in on (International) nongovernmental organizations ((I)NGOs) and their collaborations with domestic CSOs in the Global South on ...

The EU Deforestation Regulation: Challenges, Opportunities and the Potential Impacts on the Producing Countries of Cocoa and Coffee

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is a policy that prohibits access to the EU market for commodities that are linked to deforestation. We did a systematic review to understand perceived challenges, opportunities and potential impacts of the EUDR on producing countries of cocoa and coffee.

Predicting the function of spur-dike group restricting rivers based on SVM

Shuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2019
The Groin field of spur-dike group is a recirculation region. In the main flow region, the width of cross-section is narrow, the flow velocity increases, and the sediment transport is accelerated.The function indexes of the spur-dike group restricting ...

VISUALIZATION ANALYSIS OF FLOW STRUCTURES IN SUBMERGED SPUR DIKES

PROCEEDINGS OF HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING, 2000
It is important to clarify three-dimensional flow structures and instantaneous vortex structures in order to understand the mechanism of sediment transport and water quality exchange in spur-dike regions. In this study, characteristics of organized vortex structures around the submerged spur dikes were investigated by using PIV method.

Neonatal seizures and GABAergic drugs: Scylla and Charybdis?

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Neonates have a high incidence of seizures that are frequently difficult to control with conventional first‐line anti‐seizure medications, which are gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonists. The reasons for this clinical problem are multifold but are likely related to the unique physiology of the immature nervous system. Specifically, the early

Antibody kinetics against tetanus toxoid before and after primary vaccination of foals

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vaccination recommendations for foals against Clostridium tetani vary. Available studies assessing foal immune responses, maternal antibody interference, or individual variation often used small foal numbers. Objectives To quantify antibody responses after tetanus vaccination in foals and explore associations with passively ...
