Synergistic benefits of agrivoltaics for grape production and solar energy efficiency in a Mediterranean vineyard
Societal Impact Statement Grapevine production is increasingly challenged by global warming, with global wine output falling to a six‐decade low in 2024. At the same time, the vine and wine sector faces growing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint. Agrivoltaics, which integrates solar photovoltaic (PV) modules into plant production systems, offers a potential pathway to address both challenges by enabling on‐farm renewable energy generation wh…
The Accuracy of Statistical Models to Link Serial Crimes
Purpose: Crime linkage can be expensive, time-consuming, and harmful to the well-being of law enforcement staff conducting it. Part-automation of this process has been explored recently, whereby statistical models could be used to prioritise potential crime links for human attention. This meta-analysis evaluates the overall effectiveness of statistical models at predicting crime links, as measured by the Area Under the Curve (AUC). Methods: Follo…
Whiteness as symbolic capital
This study examines Bourdieu's theory of capital within the context of traditional elite institutions in the UK, highlighting how capital can both divide and empower. Focusing on Black and White undergraduate perceptions of race, racism, and racial inclusion at a Northeast elite institution, the study reveals how Whiteness is constituted and legitimized through symbolic capital. In doing so, it extends existing scholarship on the relationship bet…
The Seeds Are Sown
The mental distress experienced by ethnic minority students studying at predominantly White institutions is well documented. These institutions and their spaces can be hostile environments for ethnic minority students and staff, leading to low retention, engagement and poor mental health. Often posited through a deficit lens, we challenge models that situate the experiences of what we call the resilient minority (ReM)—racialised ethnic groups—int…
A Hybrid Approach for Geo-Referencing Tweets
Recent approaches to geo-referencing X posts have focused on the use of language modelling techniques that learn geographic region-specific language and use this to infer geographic coordinates from text. These approaches rely on large amounts of labelled data to build accurate predictive models. However, obtaining significant volumes of geo-referenced data from Twitter, recently renamed X, can be difficult. Further, existing language modelling a…
Social inequality, health behaviour determinants and health behaviour
OBJECTIVE: Health inequalities are partly due to social differences in health behaviours, but we know little about the underlying mechanisms. Health behaviour theories, summarised e.g. in the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) may outline such mechanisms. Two pathways have been theorised: Behavioural determinants mediate social differences in behaviour, and social differences in the determinants-behaviour relationship (moderation). Here, we summ…
Students’ Perceptions of Racial Diversity and Inclusion in UK Universities
Building on previous studies of racial inequality in higher education, this paper reports the findings of an online survey (N = 407) exploring the extent to which UK university students recognised the existence of racism in wider society and perceived the need for greater racial diversity and inclusion on campus. Utilising the CoBRAS scale developed by Neville and colleagues together with a new Racially Inclusive Attitudes Scale (RIAS) designed b…
Empowering city decision-makers
The actions of cities will be pivotal in our transition to a low-carbon future. City-level decision-makers are well placed to influence and facilitate this transition. Decarbonising transport, buildings, and energy is key to combating the climate crisis and reaching self-assigned city-level carbon targets to curb warming and protect the environment. However, deciding which decarbonisation projects to implement is an issue. Choosing the wrong proj…
The Correspondence of Assurbanipal, Part II
The Decline and Fall of the Assyrian Court Scholar
Scholars have long been divided over whether the correspondence of scholars with the Assyrian kings Esarhaddon and Ashurbanipal represents an anomaly or a typical relationship between scholars and kings in the ancient Near East. This paper uses social network analysis to examine the changing social status of scholars in Assyria. It argues that the reign of Esarhaddon saw the emergence of an ‘inner circle’ of scholars who maintained power and infl…
Failed Coup
Forty-three years after the publication of Simo Parpola’s article “The Murderer of Sennacherib,” the events of his assassination in 681 BC and Esarhaddon’s accession to the throne continue to provoke debate. More than a simple act of murder, the assassination of Sennacherib should be understood as an attempted coup d’ état , a strategically planned attempt to use force to bring about a change in political leadership. Combining a new examination o…
Effects of Aircraft Noise on Sleep
Aircraft noise can disrupt sleep and impair recuperation. The last U.S. investigation into the effects of aircraft noise on sleep dates back more than 20 years. Since then, traffic patterns and the noise levels produced by single aircraft have changed substantially. It is therefore important to acquire current data on sleep disturbance relative to varying degrees of aircraft noise exposure in the U.S. that can be used to check and potentially upd…

The Literary-Historical Memory of Sargon of Akkad in Assyria as the Background for Nimrod in Genesis 10
The figure of Nimrod in Gen 10:8–12 remains enigmatic: while the passage clearly depicts a Mesopotamian figure, no consensus has been reached on attempts to identify Nimrod with any historical or mythological character. I argue that the passage dates from the mid-seventh century and should be understood in light of the literary-historical memory of Sargon of Akkad and the Akkad dynasty then circulating in the Neo-Assyrian Empire. With royal suppo…
Same storm, different boats
The permanence of systemic racism in the UK and USA means that Black people are disadvantaged in myriad ways, including within the Academy. While the disproportionate impact of COVID-19, alongside the Black Lives Matter movement, has increased awareness of the challenges faced by Black communities, these issues remain, both in and beyond higher education. Furthermore, there is still a paucity of research individualising the experiences of Black p…
Safety and efficacy of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine (AZD1222) against Sars-CoV-2
Background A safe and efficacious vaccine against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), if deployed with high coverage, could contribute to the control of the COVID-19 pandemic. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine in a pooled interim analysis of four trials. Methods This analysis includes data from four ongoing blinded, randomised, controlled trials done across the UK, Brazil, and South Afri…
Trends in US Emergency Department Visits for Mental Health, Overdose, and Violence Outcomes Before and During the Covid-19 Pandemic
These findings suggest that ED care seeking shifts during a pandemic, underscoring the need to integrate mental health, substance use, and violence screening and prevention services into response activities during public health crises.
Mistaking an Intention for a Behavior
Five experiments investigated a previously unrecognized phenomenon—remembering that one enacted a mundane behavioral decision when one only intended to do so—and its psychological mechanisms. The theoretical conceptualization advanced in this research proposes that this error stems from a misattribution when an intention and a behavior are similar. Intentions and behaviors are similar when the physical aspects of the behavior resemble the intenti…

Neue Inschriften zum Artemision von Ephesos I
Artemis Ephesia is known to have possessed extensive domains in the Kaystros valley. In preparation for an on-going study of these estates, two new boundary stones are published in this article. The findspot of no. 1 reveals that Artemis’ landed property in the northeast needs to be extended up to the modern village of Göllüce. In order to understand the administrative process behind these demarcations initiated by the emperors Domitian and Traja…
Altars of Cleopatra VII and Ptolemy XV Caesarion at Teos
An altar copied by Jeanne and Louis Robert in Teos in 1955 bears the names of three deified Ptolemaic queens and of a living queen Cleopatra. In his editio princeps the present author suggested that the living queen was Cleopatra VII, the last Ptolemaic ruler of Egypt. This identification is now supported by a further altar discovered during excavations at Teos in 2013. The new altar, similar to the former in form and subject, was erected by L. M…
Building blocks of consciousness
Human consciousness has been a hard problem for thousands of years and, in the course of time, variously interpreted and often too narrowly defined. As a result, the possibility of animal consciousness, sentience or even the possibility that animals can experience pain, received no, or very little, attention. Driven by the trope that animals lack the basic neural attributes to even experience pain, humans have seriously endangered the natural exi…

Teaching the Environmental Humanities
This article provides the first international overview and detailed discussion of teaching in the environmental humanities (EH). It is divided into three parts. The first offers a series of regional overviews: where, when, and how EH teaching is taking place. This part highlights some key regional variability in the uptake of teaching in this area, emphasizing important differences in cultural and pedagogical contexts. The second part is a critic…
Implicit misattribution as a mechanism underlying evaluative conditioning
Evaluative conditioning (EC) refers to the formation or change of an attitude toward an object, following that object's pairing with positively or negatively valenced stimuli. The authors provide evidence that EC can occur through an implicit misattribution mechanism in which an evaluative response evoked by a valenced stimulus is incorrectly and implicitly attributed to another stimulus, forming or changing an attitude toward this other stimulus…

Inauguration Dates of Three Late Classic Rulers of Tikal, Guatemala
Three passages in the hieroglyphic inscriptions of the Maya city of Tikal in Guatemala indicate inaugurations to the throne of three rulers at A.D. 682, 734, and 768. The distribution of the rulers' name-glyphs in the inscriptions, as well as differences in the art and architecture of the time-periods thus marked, support the validity of the three inaugural dates. The parentage of the rulers and the likelihood that the three rulers were members o…
Research on Sexual Orientation
An extensive survey of the research literature on sexual orientation was undertaken for the purpose of determining how sexual orientation had been conceptually and operationally defined and how research subjects had been identified and selected. Two hundred-twenty-eight articles from 47 different journals were analyzed. Sexual orientation, it was found, was conceptually defined in 28 studies and operationally defined in 168. In 196 studies respon…

Petromyopia
Oil is currently over-represented in the energy humanities, a state of affairs I describe as petromyopia. While oil constitutes a vital source of energy in the modern world, focusing too heavily on petroleum can distract scholars from giving proper attention to other aspects of the social and cultural dimensions of energy. The goal of this article is to encourage those in the energy humanities to cast a broader net in their analyses and recognize…

Sexing La Mode
There has been a decent amount of good work in recent years on commercial culture and gender in late eighteenth-century France. Jennifer Jones's Sexing La Mode adds to that literature in two significant ways. First, Jones provides a particularly thorough and insightful coverage of the vestimentary culture of Louis XIV's court, stressing the relevance of fashion debates and indeed personal consumption to both elite men and women in the Grand Siècl…

The Carbon-Consuming Home
Home heating and lighting markets have played crucial and underappreciated roles in driving energy transitions. When historians have studied the adoption of fossil fuels, they have often privileged industrial actors, markets, and technologies. My analysis of the factors that stimulated the adoption of anthracite coal and petroleum during the nineteenth century reveals that homes shaped how, when, and why Americans began to use fossil fuel energy.…

Politicizing travel and climatizing philosophy
This article seeks to locate the geo-social philosophies of Montesquieu and Watsuji Tetsur l within the distinct traditions of travel writing in Enlightenment Europe and early twentieth-century Japan. Both men exhibit common concerns for the nature of nation and nationalism, politicizing travel as a means of exploring Otherness. However, L'Esprit des Lois (1750) and F do (1935) offer qualitatively distinct philosophical responses to the question …

Planet Eaters or Star Makers
For the author, the avocation of futures studies has been a personal journey, which he describes in this article. He then posits a conundrum: the possibility of humanity's role in its own destruction, on one hand, or human transcendence, on the other hand (planet eaters or star makers). The roles of driving forces and theories of social change are emphasized, especially the role of technology innovation in social change. Other "tsunamis of change…

If not a clash, then what? Huntington, Nishida Kitaro and the politics of civilizations
The debate surrounding Samuel Huntington's influential Clash of Civilizations thesis has been focused too narrowly on the accuracy of his categorization of civilizations. This focus has left the problem of the alleged inter‐civilizational order incompletely theorized. In particular, two theoretical issues have been overlooked: first, can we really assume that civilizations are capable of and prone to clashing as if they were states and, second, s…
A Lost Tradition
Mainstream political theory under‐privileges intuitive approaches to philosophy because of a mistaken belief that such approaches are either intellectually inferior or inherently dangerous. In fact, a rigorous and sophisticated tradition of intuitive philosophy developed at the beginning of the twentieth century both in Japan and in Europe. To some extent, this tradition evolved as the result of increasing contact between European and Japanese th…
