Reflexivity as a transformative capacity for sustainability science: introducing a critical systems approach by Anita Lazurko, Michele-Lee Moore, L. Jamila Haider, Simon West, Daniel D. P. McCarthy

“…We developed and refined the framework through a rapid scoping review of literature on transdisciplinarity, transformation, and reflexivity, and reflection on a scenario study in the Red River Basin (US, Canada). The framework characterizes reflexivity as the capacity to nurture a dynamic, embedded, and collective process of self-scrutiny and mutual learning in service of transformative change, which manifests through interacting boundary processes – boundary delineation, interaction, and transformation. …”

Modelling pre-Hispanic settlement patterns in Alto de Toche, Colombia by César Augusto Velandia, Daniel Ramírez, Jhony Carvajal, David Bejarano

“…The authors conclude that the patterns respond to a territorial understanding of its resources and the vertical exploitation of the agricultural thermal floors and micro-watersheds, associated with the east-west solar illumination over both sides of the Tochecito River basin; linked with the transit between ridges and steep slopes, through the network of pathways that originated the Quindío Trail. …”

Les installations portuaires romaines d’Incarville (Eure) by Laurent Paez-Rezende

“…Located halfway between Rouen/Rotomagus, capital of the territory inhabited by the Veliocasses, and Évreux/Mediolanum Aulercorum, capital of the territory of the Aulerci Eburovices, the ancient port facilities were established on the left bank of the major bed of the Eure river, near the Seine-Eure-Andelle confluence. The port facilities were comprised of a channel, a quay and a pier, occupying the wetland, and of several buildings erected on the terrace. …”

Geological history plants dominated the net accumulation of coal by Yanqiang SHI, Yakun SHI

“…During the clastic explosion period, the terrigenous clastic reservoir collapsed, some clasts rushed to the edge of the peat swamp to form rock and coal interbedding, and some were transported by peat rafts into the peat swamp to deposit intermittently, forming large sedimentary breccia scattered in the coal, while a large number of clasts were transported to the sea / lake delta by the swamp river. The plant action in the process of coal accumulation can reasonably explain some “abnormal” phenomena in coal geology and fill the blank of coal geology research.…”

Experimental Study on Well Placement Optimization for Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage to Enhance Recovery of Thin Layer Oil Sand Reservoirs by Lei Tao, Xiao Yuan, Hao Cheng, Bingchao Li, Sen Huang, Na Zhang

“…SAGD (steam-assisted gravity drainage) technique is one of the most efficient thermal recovery technologies for exploiting Mackay River thin layer oil sand reservoirs. However, when making use of the traditional SAGD technique (the production and injection well are located on the same axis with the horizontal well spacing of 0 m), the steam chamber development is usually insufficient because of the high longitudinal sweep rate of steam, which seriously influences the SAGD performance for developing thin layer oil sand reservoirs especially. …”
