Size distributions of fine silicate and other particles in Masaya's volcanic plume. (2009)
Journal Article
Martin, R., Mather, T., Pyle, D., Power, M., Tsanev, V., Oppenheimer, C., …Ward, E. (2009). Size distributions of fine silicate and other particles in Masaya's volcanic plume. Journal of Geophysical Research, 114, https://doi.org/10.1029/2008jd011211

Direct-sampling and remote-sensing measurements were made at the crater rim of Masaya volcano (Nicaragua) to sample the aerosol plume emanating from the active vent. We report the first measurements of the size distribution of fine silicate particles... Read More about Size distributions of fine silicate and other particles in Masaya's volcanic plume..

A rapid method for quantifying single mineral phases in heterogeneous natural dusts using X-ray diffraction. (2009)
Journal Article
Le Blond, J., Cressey, G., Horwell, C., & Williamson, B. (2009). A rapid method for quantifying single mineral phases in heterogeneous natural dusts using X-ray diffraction. Powder Diffraction, 24, 17-23. https://doi.org/10.1154/1.3120742

Quantification of potentially toxic single mineral phases in natural dusts of heterogeneous composition is critical for health hazard assessment. For example, crystalline silica, a human carcinogen, can be present as respirable particles in volcanic...

Social values of biodiversity conservation: for the endangered loggerhead turtle and monk seal. (2009)
Journal Article
Kaval, P., Stithou, M., & Scarpa, R. (2009). Social values of biodiversity conservation: for the endangered loggerhead turtle and monk seal. International journal of ecological economics and statistics, 14(P09), 67-76

The Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) and the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) are two species on the priority list for conservation in Greece, due to their dwindling populations worldwide. Hence, the issue of estimating willingness-to-p... Read More about Social values of biodiversity conservation: for the endangered loggerhead turtle and monk seal..

Investments and Trade-offs in the Economics of Information Security. (2009)
Conference Proceeding
Ioannidis, C., Pym, D., & Williams, J. (2009). Investments and Trade-offs in the Economics of Information Security. In R. Dingledine, & P. Golle (Eds.), Financial cryptography and data security: 13th International Conference, FC 2009, Accra Beach, Barbados, February 23-26, 2009: revised selected papers (148-166). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-03549-4_9

We develop and simulate a dynamic model of investment in information security. The model is based on the recognition that both IT managers and users appreciate the trade-off between two of the fundamental characteristics of information security, name...

Paris, Cuba, New York: Wifredo Lam and the Lost Origins of The Jungle. (2009)
Journal Article
Hernández Adrián, F. (2009). Paris, Cuba, New York: Wifredo Lam and the Lost Origins of The Jungle. Cultural Dynamics, 21(3), 339-360. https://doi.org/10.1177/0921374008350292

This article investigates the complex inscription of modernist Cuban imaginaries within Atlantic cultural and political networks. I consider the tropes of cultural intelligibility and epistemic opacity in the fields of visual culture and cultural hie...
