Climate Smart: geography, place and climate change adaptation education
(2024)Geographical education provides a unique space for supporting climate literacy and action. In this paper we present a novel place-based online educational resource platform - Climate Smart – which seeks to expand the ... -
Intersectionality, childhood disability and rurality: What does rural life mean for disabled children and their families?
(2024)The specific intention of this paper is to question how rural life may affect everyday issues of concern for disabled children and their families, including access to services, social connectedness and quality of life. A ... -
Enantioselective effect of cysteine functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles in U87 MG and GM08680 human cells and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria
(2021)Chirality is a fundamental phenomenon in biological systems, since most of the biomolecules and biological components and species are chiral and therefore recognize and respond differently depending on the enantiomer ... -
Zohreh Khosrobeigi, Maria Koutsombogera, Carl Vogel
(2023)This paper studies the relationship between conversational features related to gesture, conversational dominance, collaboration, and personality traits. Specifically, we examine the interaction of motion energy and factors ... -
The impact of (un)ethical survival mode duality and choices of the educational elite on the African renaissance
(2024)In postcolonial Africa, education has always been perceived as pivotal for national and continental progress. For many Africans pursuing education abroad, the intent was to contribute to their countries’ development upon ... -
Psychotropic medicines' prevalence, patterns and effects on cognitive and physical function in older adults with intellectual disability in Ireland: longitudinal cohort study, 2009-2020
(2024)Background: The frequent prescribing of psychotropics and high prevalence of polypharmacy among older adults with intellectual disabilities require close monitoring. Aims: To describe change in prevalence, predictors ... -
Guided by theory, grounded in practice: evidence-based development of teaching resources for multisite interprofessional education

Intercomparison of marine tracer and catchment-based submarine groundwater discharge estimates for a karst aquifer
(2023)Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is a major source of solutes to the ocean. Consequently, the accuracy of estimates of the magnitude and seasonal variability of SGD is critical for the management of coastal marine ... -
Equilibrium shape of a bubble in a liquid-filled horizontal capillary
(2024)Bubbles in liquid-filled capillaries feature in many practical applications. Here we describe the equilibrium shape of a bubble in a horizontal capillary of circular cross section, as computed numerically using energy ... -
BRICS' Enlargement: Power Expansion or Contraction in a Changing World Order?
(2024)The BRICS’ expansion should be seen in the context of an ongoing challenge to the international order in general, and the West’s competition with China and Russia in particular ■ China views the current difficulties ... -
Superlubric Sliding of Graphene Auto-Kirigami with Interfaces Containing Self-Assembled Stripe-Pattern Adsorbates
(2024)Van der Waals heterostructures formed by stacked 2D materials show exceptional electronic, mechanical, and optical properties. Superlubricity, a condition where atomically flat, incommensurate planes of atoms results in ... -
Physical health effects of sedentary behaviour on adults with an intellectual disability: A scoping review
(Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2022)This literature review was designed to establish the effects of sedentary behaviour on the physical health of adults with an intellectual disability. Sedentary behaviour is defined as any waking behaviour characterized by ... -

(2024)Objectives: Patients with advanced illness and their family caregivers can be mutually supportive. However, what facilitates and/or restricts supportive relationships between patients and family caregivers in palliative ... -
Electrical detection of spin pumping in van der Waals ferromagnetic Cr2Ge2Te6 with low magnetic damping
(2023)The discovery of magnetic order in atomically-thin van der Waals materials has strengthened the alliance between spintronics and two-dimensional materials. An important use of magnetic two-dimensional materials in spintronic ... -
Realization of Zero-Field Skyrmions in a Magnetic Tunnel Junction
(2023)Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected noncollinear spin textures, which are regarded as promising information carriers for next-generation spintronic devices due to their small size and the low current density ... -
Magnetic Field Enhancement of Water Evaporation in Confined Spaces
(2023)Water is studied in confined environments where it evaporates into its own vapor. Simultaneous experiments are conducted for 0.4–0.5 µL droplets confined at the center of 54 mm long microchannels with a cross section of ... -
A focus on adolescent mental health and well-being in Europe, central Asia and Canada
(World Health Organisation, 2023)The Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC) study is a large school-based survey carried out every four years in collaboration with the WHO Regional Office for Europe. HBSC data are used at national/regional and ... -
