Integrating indigenous knowledge and skills in mining operations
This review explores the integration of Indigenous Knowledge and Skills (IKS) in mining operations, aimed at developing a comprehensive understanding of how these knowledge systems are embedded throughout the mining life cycle. The study systematically reviewed relevant literature from three electronic databases using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Eighteen articles that met the inclusi…
Bio+Mine Project
The rehabilitation of legacy mines continues to be a big challenge because of the difficulties in returning them to safe and stable conditions and ensuring that the mined-out areas become productive to support the economic activity of the host community. Previous efforts are often focused on purely technical and environmental aspects, leading to resistance from the local community due to their exclusion from the rehabilitation process. To address…
Interpersonal Decentering and Interpersonal Problems
Mature interpersonal decentering is a form of social cognitive role-taking involving reflective thought about one's interpersonal relationships. Previous research examining main effects for persons, card situation content, story content, and person-card interactions found more mature decentering in stories about heterosexual romantic-pull Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) cards (HRC) as compared with stories about nonromantic cards (NRC). To see w…
Waterbirds in constructed suburban wetlands, Eastern Denton County, Texas, USA
Waterbirds were observed at 13 suburban wetlands in the Blackland Prairie of eastern Denton County, Texas, on 45 dates over a year. Five wetlands were built to improve ecosystem services in areas impacted by Lewisville Lake flood control operations; these habitat restoration wetlands were planted with diverse native flora to enhance the recovery of vegetation communities from natural seedbanks. Eight other wetlands, built to manage stormwater in …
Assessing Attitudes toward Grandparents Raising Their Grandchildren
This article describes the assessment of attitudes toward grandparent caregivers held by noncaregiving grandparents. Six hundred two grandparents not currently caring for grandchildren completed an 18-item measure of such attitudes. This attitude scale was both internally consistent and multidimensional in nature. Attitudes were more positive for grandparents reporting previous experience caring for a grandchild and such attitudes were in part pr…
Improving Data Analysis in Second Language Acquisition by Utilizing Modern Developments in Applied Statistics
In this article we introduce language acquisition researchers to two broad areas of applied statistics that can improve the way data are analyzed. First we argue that visual summaries of information are as vital as numerical ones, and suggest ways to improve them. Specifically, we recommend choosing boxplots over barplots and adding locally weighted smooth lines (Loess lines) to scatterplots. Second, we introduce the reader to robust statistics, …
Assessment of environmental impacts of active smelter operations and abandoned mines in Karabash, Ural Mountains of Russia
Industrialization in the former USSR caused widespread environmental damage, which is graphically illustrated in the South Urals mining region of west‐central Russia. One of the most heavily polluted areas is the town of Karabash and its surrounding area, which has abandoned mines and a large active copper smelter close to its centre. The area is affected by effluents and gaseous and particulate emissions from the smelter, acid drainage from aban…
