Different Conditions, Yet Similar Outcomes: How Interaction Between Policy Areas Enabled Carbon Tax Adoption in Sweden and Mexico

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interest in putting a price on carbon emissions is increasing in pace with the urgency of climate change. In this article we compare the adoption of one such policy instrument, carbon taxation, in the cases of Sweden and Mexico. We use a theoretical framework that focuses on economic and environmental factors influencing the policy process

Governing Within the Constraints of Carbon Budgets: Regional Insights From Sweden

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Staying within the limits of a rapidly shrinking global carbon budget while avoiding dependency on negative emissions technologies and carbon dioxide removal remains a significant challenge in a multi‐level governance system, where resources and responsibilities are dispersed among different actors.

Generalized -Bernstein-Schurer Operators and Some Approximation Theorems

Journal of Function Spaces and Applications, 2013
We study statistical approximation properties of -Bernstein-Shurer operators and establish some direct theorems. Furthermore, we compute error estimation and show graphically the convergence for a function by operators and give its algorithm.

The log-L\'evy moment problem via Berg-Urbanik semigroups

, 2019
We consider the Stieltjes moment problem for the Berg-Urbanik semigroups which form a class of multiplicative convolution semigroups on $\mathbb{R}_+$ that is in bijection with the set of Bernstein functions.

Letting People in: Redefining Collaboration in Wildland–Urban Interface Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intensifying wildfire regimes and expanding human settlements into wilderness areas have heightened concerns about the wildland–urban interface (WUI) due to the associated increase in fire risk. However, the WUI presents broader social‐ecological challenges that go beyond wildfire risk and remain understudied.

What Could Have Been: Predicted and Actual Exclusion by Potential Romantic Partners and Platonic Friends

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Romantic partners are instrumental to more goals than friends, and therefore, people have more to lose when denied a romantic relationship than a friendship. We explored people's forecasted and experienced rejection by a potential romantic partner or friend.

Shape preserving approximation properties to family of α-Bernstein shifted knot operators

Journal of Inequalities and Applications
The main idea of this paper is to obtain approximation results by utilizing the shifted knots properties of the family of α-Bernstein operators. We examine some basic results and estimate the moments of this new family of α-Bernstein operators. We derive

Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Testing a Relational Model of Workplace Spirituality Across Three Levels: Linking Employee Attitudes and Turnover in a Healthcare Setting

Human Resource Development Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A growing body of research demonstrates that purpose and meaning are significant to employee well‐being and organizational performance. Yet, increasing challenges in the workplace, including downsizing, layoffs, and job insecurity, can erode employees' sense of purpose and meaning.

Matrix Infinitely Divisible Series: Tail Inequalities and Applications in Optimization

, 2018
In this paper, we study tail inequalities of the largest eigenvalue of a matrix infinitely divisible (i.d.) series, which is a finite sum of fixed matrices weighted by i.d. random variables. We obtain several types of tail inequalities, including Bennett-
