Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates

open access: yesThe Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018
The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.

Significant afterslip contribution to postseismic deformation in Sado Island following the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake: insights from two dense GNSS observation networks

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
This study investigated postseismic deformation resulting from the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake on January 1. Particular focus was placed on the displacement observed in Sado Island, which is located several tens of kilometers east of the eastern end ...

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

open access: yesSustainable 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.

Impact of volcanic eruptions on extratropical atmospheric circulations: review, revisit and future directions

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
Understanding the impacts of volcanic eruptions on the atmospheric circulations and surface climate in the extratropics is important for inter-annual to decadal climate prediction. Previous studies on the Northern Hemisphere climate responses to volcanic

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)

open access: yesEnvironmental 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.

Stress field in northeastern Japan and its relationship with faults of recent earthquakes

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Inversion tectonics, in which old normal faults act as reverse faults in current stress fields, are frequently observed in northeastern Japan (Tohoku District); however, the conditions that control these fault activities remain unclear.

From foraging to decomposition: Large vertebrates as biotic drivers of trace element cycling across landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We highlight an overlooked pathway in ecosystem functioning: the role of animal carcass decomposition in trace element cycling. By linking animal life cycles to landscape‐scale processes, we explain how large animals redistribute scarce elements and influence spatial heterogeneity, with implications for ecosystem functioning and restoration.

Coseismic slip distribution of the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake deduced from dense global navigation satellite system network and interferometric synthetic aperture radar data: effect of assumed dip angle

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
The Mw 7.5 Noto Peninsula earthquake, which occurred on January 1, 2024, was considerably hazardous to the peninsula and surrounding regions owing to a strong motion, large-scale crustal deformation, and subsequent tsunami.

The Big Picture: Religion and Global Comparative History

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
