Perceptions of Governance (Il)Legitimacy Mediate Climate Change Adaptation in the Lake Victoria Basin, Uganda

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Governance is a well‐known dimension of adaptive capacity across various frameworks, however specific links between perceptions of governance (il)legitimacy and adaptive capacity remain relatively unexplored. In this study, we investigate connections between climate change adaptation and perceptions of governance (il)legitimacy using focus ...

Environmental Statecraft, Fragmented Authoritarianism, and Technocratic Governance: The Structure and Agency of China's Local Environmental Politics

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local environmental politics in China is often said to be dominated by state‐controlled modes of multi‐level governance. However, top‐down governance is embedded within and transformed by local politics, adding complexity to governance practices and environmental outcomes.

The Crowd: Zooming in on Social Behaviour

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The direct observation of social behaviour has almost completely vanished from socialpsychological research, in favour of studies of attitudes, identities and cognitions. Using crowd psychology as an illustration, this article argues for a renewed focus on observational research enabled by recent technological advances, including high ...

Beyond electricity generation: Nuclear power plants as circular chemical manufacturing hubs for plastic waste valorization

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Large nuclear power plants have traditionally been regarded as facilities dedicated to electricity generation. This study proposes a systems‐level concept in which they function as circular chemical manufacturing hubs integrating plastic waste valorization, hydrogen production, carbon utilization, and downstream polymer synthesis within a ...

A Geographic Information System (GIS)–CRiteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation (CRITIC) Framework for Selecting Solar Photovoltaics Sites: A Case Study

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A novel framework integrating environmental constraints, topography, infrastructure accessibility, and solar irradiation was developed to identify optimal utility‐scale solar photovoltaics (PV) sites in Lithuania. Western and central Lithuania showed the highest suitability for future solar PV expansion.

Spacing Effects in Guided Vertical‐Axis Wind Turbine Arrays for Highway Energy Harvesting Under Multi‐Vehicle Wake Conditions

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Three‐turbine guided Savonius arrays installed along highway corridors extract up to 697 J under multi‐vehicle wake conditions when spaced 12 rotor diameters apart—68% more than compact arrangements. Guide vanes boost output by 80–120%, and interior turbines respond most strongly to spacing, governing overall array performance. ABSTRACT Highway‐induced
