In this episode, Stella Ebbersmeyer speaks to Dr. Zhen Sun from the World Maritime University about the regulation of Arctic shipping in the context of climate change. They address topics such as the regulation of black carbon emissions, the Heavy Fuel Oil ban at the International Maritime Organization and non-state actors in international law-making.
In this episode we speak to Associate Professor Jeff Colgan about the existential politics of climate change, as well as the challenges related to the revaluation of climate-forcing and climate-vulnerable assets. The interview draws on the recent article ‘Asset Revaluation and the Existential Politics of Climate Change’, which Jeff Colgan co-authored with Jessica Green and Thomas Hale.
Purpose: To study the incidence and subtype of breast cancer in relation to incident and prevalent statin use in a contemporary Swedish prospective cohort, The Karolinska Mammography Project for Risk Prediction of Breast Cancer, KARMA. Methods: A total of 35,315 postmenopausal women attending mammography and included in the KARMA cohort (Jan 2011–March 2013) with data on statin use and potential c
International research collaboration is essential for tackling global challenges, many of which disproportionately affect low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), while scientific capital remains concentrated in high-income countries (HICs). Drawing on CRediT contributorship data from 2018–2023 and past and present author affiliations, we examine how labor is divided in teams between researchers
Focusing on how environmental stressors intersect with socioeconomic vulnerabilities to shape migratory patterns, this study examines the relationship between climate change and youth (im)mobility in Ethiopia. It examines how climate shocks—including droughts, unpredictable rainfall, and land degradation—heighten household insecurity and shape young people’s migration decisions. Using mixed-method
African elephants are keystone species facing severe declines due to the ivory trade and habitat loss. To investigate the genomic consequences, we analyze 232 high-coverage genomes from 17 African countries in the first continent-wide genomic analysis treating savanna (Loxodonta africana) and forest (L. cyclotis) elephants as distinct species. We find a deep divergence between species, with forest
This study examines the defense modernization efforts of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Vision 2030, together with the institutional architecture of GAMI and SAMI, sets an ambitious target of 50% defense localization by 2030. While official reports assert steady progress in upstream industrial capabilities, this study asks whether these efforts have been as successful as claimed. The research
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into corporate sustainability promises to alleviate the cognitive boundaries of the Strategic Decision-Making Process (SDMP) by synthesising massive, complex datasets. However, the inherent friction between the reductionist, instrumental logic of algorithmic models and the pluralistic, value-laden logic of sustainability creates profound operational

The Tamaulipas tragedy in 2010 proved a turning point for transit migration politics. This was one of the worst massacres on Mexican territory, in which 72 undocumented migrants, mostly from Central America, were kidnapped, tortured, and their dead bodies piled up in a ditch at a local ranch in the northern Mexican state. With this event, transit migrants became visible through their experiences o
System-thinking and related systemic methods enhance traditional risk and hazard assessments and accident analysis, as well as system design. The Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) is a recently developed method for systemic analysis. FRAM facilitates descriptions of the functional relations among system elements. In case of large systems (e.g. several agents, multiple procedures, many te
Choice blindness is the failure to detect a discrepancy between a choice and its outcome. The misinformation effect occurs when the recollection of an event changes because new, misleading information about the event is received. The purpose of this study was to merge the choice blindness and misinformation effect paradigms, and thus examine whether choice blindness can be created for individuals’
The preservatives imidazolidinyl urea (IMID, Germall 115) and diazolidinyl urea (DU, Germall II) are commonly used in cosmetic products and are well-known sensitizers. The aim of the present study was to establish the optimal patch test concentration in hydrophilic dried-in vehicle (TRUE Test) for IMID and DU. 181 patients were included in the study. Of these, 150 were patients referred for patch
We report on high resolution photoelectron core level spectroscopy (HRCLS) and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) measurements of the decomposition of lysine adsorbed on InP(001) substrates. We find that components from the lysine can be present on the InP surface even after annealing to 600 degrees C and desorption of the native surface oxide. We further observe that while a crystalline surface
