Advection-diffusion-settling of deep-sea mining sediment plumes. Part 1: Midwater plumes by Ouillon, Raphael, Muñoz-Royo, Carlos, Alford, Matthew H., Peacock, Thomas

“…Key metrics that characterize the extent of plumes are defined based on a concentration threshold. Namely, we consider the volume flux of fluid that ever exceeds a concentration threshold, the furthest distance from and maximum depth below the intrusion where the plume exceeds the threshold, and the instantaneous volume of fluid in excess of the threshold. …”

Humour as an act of deracination and native resistance through alterity, subaltern and negritude in selected plays by Francis Davis Imbuga by A. Majeed, Abdulhameed

“…The research achieved three objectives, namely (1) To explore the native Kenyan cultural identity as a manifestation of tradition that contradicts with British modernity culture in the selected plays, (2) To investigate the Kenyan society as being negritude which is perceived as subaltern ethnicity attempting to resist the colonial persecutory alterity by applying Taussig’s concept of alterity and Spivak’s concept of subaltern, and (3) To examine Imbuga’s depiction of native Kenyan cultural tradition that resists the colonial modernity through humour deracination to empower their inherited identity by applying Fanon’s concept of deracination. …”
