Heterogeneous Spillover Effects: How FDI in Resources Extraction, Manufacturing, and Services Affect Sectoral Carbon Emissions in the MENA Region

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The MENA region faces a critical challenge: balancing economic growth spurred by foreign direct investment (FDI) with environmental sustainability. While FDI can bring technological advancements and capital, concerns exist about its potential to exacerbate environmental degradation, particularly carbon emissions.

Estimating Causal Effects With Observational Data: Guidelines for Agricultural and Applied Economists

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most research questions in agricultural and applied economics are causal in nature: they study how changes in one or more variables (such as policies, prices or weather) affect one or more other variables (e.g., income, crop yields or pollution).

Is the endophyte‐based plant protection against aphids mediated by changes in the insect microbiome?

Insect Science, EarlyView.
We showed that the fungal endophyte Epichloë strain AR37 increased the plant resistance against aphids via the production of indole diterpene alkaloids. The reduction in aphid performance was not associated with changes in abundance/composition/diversity of the insect's bacterial microbiota, but additional endophyte effects on this microbiota cannot be

Consistent Choice of Prey Source Habitat Across Diverse Landscapes by a Selective Insectivorous Bat

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
After analyzing the diet of the greater horseshoe bats in three distinct colonies, we identified significant spatial and temporal differences, particularly noting a stronger reliance on riparian habitats in Mediterranean areas. The species exhibits great ecological adaptability with strong plasticity in prey source habitats, shifting preferences among ...

An Explanation of Path Analysis and Recommendations for Best Practice

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Path analysis has become increasingly popular, but many studies do not show a deep understanding of how path analysis works or the assumptions on which it relies. In this paper, we explain that path analysis is statistically equivalent to either OLS when the researcher assumes uncorrelated errors, or instrumental variable (IV) estimation when ...
