Narrating Entanglement Without Dehumanisation in Contemporary Eco‐Fiction
ABSTRACT This essay presents a comparative analysis of two contemporary works of eco‐fiction, Richard Powers's The Overstory (2018) and Eleanor Catton's Birnam Wood (2023). Both novels use multiperspective narration in the service of entanglement narratives, forms of storytelling that emphasise the interconnection of human and nonhuman life.

ABSTRACT This study examines the role of climate change in shaping return migration intentions among international migrants. Using an original representative survey of over 1000 first‐generation West African migrants in Germany, we correlate variation in climate conditions in respondents' subnational regions of origin in West Africa to their return ...

Observing Broadband Tsunamis in Deep Water Via Distributed Acoustic Sensing
Abstract Tsunamis have been detected as strain variations in optical fibers of submarine cables through distributed acoustic sensing (DAS). However, the usefulness of strain variations during tsunamis for early warning remains unclear. Here, we compare fiber strains and sea‐level changes for both infragravity waves in ambient noise and tsunamis ...

Modern Submarine Landslide Complexes
20 pages Submarine landslides have been identified in almost all ocean basins worldwide. The largest submarine landslides occur on very shallow slopes and can be far larger than any terrestrial landslide. Submarine landslides can produce tsunami whose far‐reaching effects can rival those produced by earthquake‐tsunamis and threaten increasingly ...
