Networked Regional Resilience: Diffusion of Risk and Adaptation Across Interconnected Regions
ABSTRACT Regions face not only direct exposure to economic and physical shocks but also indirect consequences of actions in interconnected regions. This paper examines how socio‐spatial networks shape regional resilience to contagious shocks through dynamic feedback between risk diffusion and adaptation diffusion.

ABSTRACT Exposure to reduced oxygen levels occurs in several real‐world contexts, such as during air travel or altitude exposure, and emerging evidence suggests that hypoxia may interact with molecular pathways involved in circadian regulation. This exploratory study investigated the effects of normobaric hypoxia on circadian phase shifting in humans ...
