Natural disaster risk salience and the strategic appointment of directors with sustainability expertise

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.

Heterodonty in the teeth of the turiasaurian sauropod from Angeac‐Charente (Early Cretaceous, southwestern France): Comparison of anatomical and geometric morphometric approaches

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Turiasaurian teeth from Angeac‐Charente exhibit five dental morphotypes and reveal clear heterodonty and anteroposterior size gradient. Qualitative comparative anatomy quickly and efficiently identifies morphotypes, while 3D geometric morphometrics combined with machine learning refine ambiguous cases, demonstrating that qualitative and quantitative ...

When Virchow's law fails: Crouzon syndrome as a test case for quantitative suture closure–endocranial shape relationships

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Crouzon syndrome shows preserved intracranial volume but profoundly altered endocranial shape, with disrupted allometric coupling relative to controls. Treating calvarial suture patency as a continuous, age‐adjusted variable reveals strong system‐level covariation with endocranial morphology, effects invisible to conventional categorical suture scoring.

Development of sleepiness in professional truck drivers: Real‐road testing for driver drowsiness and attention warning (DDAW) system evaluation

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.
Summary All new vehicle types within the European Union must now be equipped with a driver drowsiness and attention warning system starting from 2022. The specific requirements for the test procedure necessary for type approval are defined in the Annex of EU Regulation C/2021/2639.

Equilibrium Reward for Liquidity Providers in Automated Market Makers

Mathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We find the equilibrium contract that an automated market maker (AMM) offers to their strategic liquidity providers (LPs) in order to maximize the order flow that gets processed by the venue. Our model is formulated as a leader–follower stochastic game, where the venue is the leader and a representative LP is the follower.

Disentangling atmospheric and soil drought: a new stand‐level manipulation approach for mature forests

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Design of the VPDrought experiment in a Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) forest at the Pfynwald research platform. Summary Atmospheric and soil drought are major, yet typically confounded, drivers of tree stress. Rising vapor pressure deficit (VPD) may impair forest function independently of soil moisture decline, yet stand‐scale experimental separation ...

Reconstructing Cenozoic grasslands in North America and western Eurasia: evidence for cold‐season grasses from 3D phytolith morphology

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Pie charts illustrate the composition of fossil grass silica short‐cell phytolith (GSSCP) assemblages at investigated fossil sites in the United States and Türkiye and representative 3D meshes of classified phytoliths. Summary Pooideae, the largest grass subfamily, radiated in the Northern Hemisphere from the Paleocene onward and today dominates cold ...

Simulations All the Way Up! An Atheist's Response to the Fine‐Tuning Argument

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT So the Fine‐tuning Argument goes, because it is so unlikely for the physical constants of the laws of nature to have taken the values that they in fact take, we should significantly raise our credence that God exists. Simulation Arguments argue that our world might be (or, in stronger versions, that it probably is) a mere computer simulation ...

Development of chalcones structure‐related to avobenzone: Photoprotection, photostability, and safety evaluation

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Scaffold hopping strategy used to develop chalcones structure‐related to the avobenzone tautomer. Positive aspects of 2‐hydroxychalcones are highlighted. Abstract Chalcones are α,β‐unsaturated ketones with extended π‐conjugation, making them promising scaffolds for the development of organic UV filters.
