Abstract Histories of major powers continue to shape how many scholars conceptualize internationalism. By focusing on Malta's interventions at the UN challenges, this article challenges such narrative. In particular, it examines Arvid Pardo's 1967 petition that the seabed be reconceived and protected as the ‘common heritage of mankind’ and Vincent ...

Dictyonema black shale and Triassic sandstones as potential sources of uranium

open access: yesNukleonika, 2015
The main objective of the present study was an assessment of the possibility of uranium recovery from domestic resources in Poland. In the first stage uranium was leached from the ground uranium ore by using acidic (sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid) or

Market Power in Uranium Enrichment [PDF]

open access: yes
Four firms dominate the international uranium enrichment market. Two reasons for this industrial concentration are (1) enrichment capacity can be used to make nuclear weapons, and hence its spread has been controlled through many mechanisms, including ...

Amidoximated cellulose fiber membrane for uranium extraction from simulated seawater

open access: yes, 2020
Uranium extraction from seawater is considered as an efficient strategy to meet the increasing demands of uranium. Amidoxime has been reported as one of the most efficient groups for uranium affinity.

Impact of uranium carbide organics treated by prolonged boiling and electrochemical oxidation upon uranium and plutonium solvent extraction

open access: yes, 2017
The dissolution of uranium or uranium-plutonium carbide fuel in nitric acid leads to ~50% carbon evolved as carbon dioxide, the remainder remains in the solution as soluble organics. These dissolved organic molecules interfere with the solvent extraction

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

open access: yesAmerican 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

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

open access: yesArchaeometry, 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.
