Surface Rights: Sovereignty, Citizenship and the Question of Mineral Rights in the Woodward Commission

Australian Journal of Politics &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article retraces the Woodward Commission on Aboriginal Land Rights in the Northern Territory, focusing on the question of mineral rights. Mineral rights were assumed in the Commission's terms of reference and expected by many Aboriginal people. Why, then, were they not recommended by the Commission?

A Multi-Source Remote Sensing-Based AGB Synergistic Inversion Approach Integrating Terrain-Corrected Canopy Height and Forest-Type Heterogeneity

Remote Sensing
ICESat-2/ATLAS photon-counting LiDAR faces several challenges in regional-scale forest aboveground biomass (AGB) estimation. These challenges include sparse sampling, signal saturation, terrain effects, and limited model generalization.

Nanowires Reinforce Oriented Macroporous Aerogels for Rapid Uranium Removal from Acidic Radioactive Wastewater. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
A “reinforced concrete” structural aerogel with directional microchannels is engineered for rapid uranium capture. The interconnected architecture enables ultrafast water permeation, and the nanowire reinforcement yields a 70‐fold increase in mechanical strength.

Toward a Politics of Planetary Care: The Limits of More‐Than‐Human Approaches, Silenced Notes From Indigenous Forest Worlds in India

American Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to the planetary climate crisis, influential scholarship has directed us to decenter the human, recognize nonhuman agency, and imagine more‐than‐human futures. But what might this leave out? Drawing on Indigenous forest worlds in India and the incarcerated intellectual‐activists who struggled alongside them, this article develops a

Validation of Bayesian modeling approach of uncertainty in organ doses using post-mortem measurements

Scientific Reports
The biokinetic and dosimetry models recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection do not incorporate dosimetric uncertainty. Recently, Bayesian approach—offering distribution of dose estimates rather than a single point value—has

Characteristics and Sources of Ore-Forming Fluids in the Hailijin Uranium Deposit, Songliao Basin

Geosciences
The Hailijin uranium (U) deposit is one of the super-large U-deposits recently discovered in the Qianjiadian ore field, southwestern Songliao Basin. The ore bodies are mainly hosted in the lower member sandstones of the Upper Cretaceous Yaojia Formation ...

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

Glass from Teniky (Madagascar): Geochemical Evidence for Multiple Production Systems and Long‐Distance Exchange in the Mediaeval Indian Ocean

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The inland rock‐cut site of Teniky, located in the Isalo massif of southern Madagascar, represents an exceptional archaeological context recently dated to the 11th–12th centuries ad, corresponding to the early phases of settlement on the island.

Carbonate-Induced Self-Sealing of Near-Field Granite Fractures in Geological Disposal of High-Level Radioactive Waste: Coupled THMC Precipitation–Dissolution Mechanisms and Long-Term Performance Evaluation

Applied Sciences
Deep geological disposal is widely recognized as the most reliable strategy for the long-term isolation of high-level radioactive waste (HLW). In granitic host rocks, fractures in the near-field represent the primary pathways for groundwater flow and ...

Evaporitic Chert Provenance: Evaluating Petrographic and Geochemical Workflows for Source Discrimination

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chert tools were widely used in prehistory by human societies due to their knapping suitability and availability, but their relatively uniform composition, especially in evaporitic cherts, complicates sourcing, requiring specialised analytical methods.
