Calving processes and the dynamics of calving glaciers

TL;DR: In this article, a hierarchy of calving processes is defined to distinguish those that exert a fundamental control on the position of the ice margin from more localised processes responsible for individual calving events.
Journal ArticleDOI

‘Green On Green’: Public perceptions of wind power in Scotland and Ireland

TL;DR: In this paper, case studies of public attitudes towards existing and proposed windfarm developments in Scotland and Ireland are used to test three counter-intuitive hypotheses derived from previous attitudinal research, namely, local people become more favourable towards windfarms after construction, the degree of acceptance increases with proximity to them, and the NIMBY syndrome does not adequately explain variations in public attitudes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does community ownership affect public attitudes to wind energy? A case study from south-west Scotland

TL;DR: The results of a study of public attitudes to onshore windfarm development in south-west Scotland is presented in this article, where the authors explore the influences of different development models on attitudes to windfarms by comparing public attitudes towards a community-owned windfarm on the Isle of Gigha with attitudes towards several developer-owned on the adjacent Kintyre peninsula.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perspectives on the `alien' versus `native' species debate: a critique of concepts, language and practice

TL;DR: This article reviewed the key criticisms of the native/alien construct, including its spatiotemporally arbitrary character, its disturbingly xenophobic associations, the logical problems of attributing native or alien status to our own species, and the ethical disjunction between the promotion of a multicultural human society and the persecution of ''foreign" species.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Patagonian Icefields: A Glaciological Review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the anomalous behavior of certain calving glaciers, the oscillations of which contrast in magnitude, timing and sign with each other and with non-calving glaciers.
