Beyond Sea-Level Rise: The Impact of Volcanic Eruptions on Territorial Sea Baseline Delimitation and Legal Responses

Redai dili
Sea-level rise has induced two principal legal responses, fixed and ambulatory baselines, developed to address changes in the natural geographical conditions of territorial sea baseline points.

Patterns of Fine Ash Dispersal Related to Volcanic Activity at West Mata Volcano, NE Lau Basin

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Extensive deep (>1500 m) non-hydrothermal ash-rich plumes were present in the water column surrounding West Mata submarine volcano (NE Lau basin) during eruptive phases, but were absent when West Mata was quiescent.

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Pumice rafts in the global ocean: a remote sensing assessment

GIScience & Remote Sensing
Pumice rafts mainly originate from submarine volcanic eruptions, which can be captured by ocean color satellite sensors as shown in several case studies. On a global scale, however, there is a lack of systematic evaluation using consistent algorithms and

Media‐Dependent Growth, Stress Responses, and Metal Accumulation Patterns in Azolla imbricata (Roxb.) Nakai Exposed to As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn: Individual and Combination Effects (Synergistic, Antagonistic, and Additive)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we examined metal accumulation and biochemical responses of Azolla imbricata (Roxb.) Nakai exposed to water medium (WM) and nutrient medium (NM) under single and combined (co‐exposure) treatments with five metals (As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn) at 10% environmentally relevant concentrations.

Far-reaching volcaniclastic density current deposits as evidence of explosive marine eruptions

Nature Communications
Underwater sediment density currents triggered by marine volcanic eruptions threaten island communities and infrastructure, while their deposits provide archives of past eruptions. Despite their significance, scarce real-time density current observations

And then there was us Et puis nous sommes apparus

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In 1987, the academic conference ‘Origins and Dispersals of Modern Humans: Behavioural and Biological Perspectives’ was held in Cambridge, UK. Subsequently referred to as the ‘Human Revolution’ conference, this meeting brought together the most prominent academics working in the field of human origins, including archaeologists and palaeoanthropologists,

The Big Picture: Religion and Global Comparative History

Journal of Religious History, EarlyView.
This article considers what a ‘big picture’ approach to global religious history might look like, and in particular the implications of deploying the comparative method across much larger stretches of time and space than historians normally attend to. It will begin by reflecting on the epistemological moods that have hindered this project to date, the ...

Future eruptions of the Kolumbo volcanic field: prognosis with hazard and risk assessment

Bulletin of Volcanology
The Kolumbo submarine volcanic field consists of at least 24 monogenetic cones and a polygenetic central volcano which erupted in 1650 CE. The prognosis, hazards and risks from future eruptions are assessed by structured expert judgement informed by ...

Remembering Interracial Intimacies: South Asian Perspectives on Black/Brown Sex and Romance in Colonial East Africa

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bringing together historical evidence, postcolonial fiction and memory work, this study recovers South Asian cultural attitudes towards interracial heterosexual romance from the margins of East African history. It asks why Black/brown intimacy was treated as taboo and denied legitimacy within South Asian diasporic communities in British‐ruled ...
