ABSTRACT Climate change poses new challenges to the social mission and financial viability of microfinance institutions (MFIs). These include the vulnerability of borrowers, increased credit risks and the need to adapt to the changing climate. Using a novel microcredit data set, we first study the prevalence of climatic hazards and vulnerabilities in ...

Enhanced Objectivity of AHP for More Reliable Solar Farm Site Selection
While the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was originally designed for subjectively relatable criteria, there may also be objectively defined relationships or consensus on certain criteria pairs. To incorporate these objective relationships and consensuses, this study introduces the analytical hierarchy process with optimized hierarchy (AHP‐OH).

Water scarcity poses a significant life constraint in global drylands that determines species adaptations and mosaic of exposed bare areas and vegetation patches. Runoff‐water redistribution resulting from this spatial configuration has been suggested as a key process controlling water availability for vegetation and ecosystem functioning. However, the

Sunlight, culture and state capacity
Abstract This paper examines the impact of ultraviolet radiation (UV‐R) on state capacity. The results indicate that the intensity of UV‐R is a strong predictor of cross‐country differences in state capacity. Countries with a higher degree of UV‐R exposure tend on average to have weaker states.
