Exploring sustainable logistics practices toward a circular economy: A value creation perspective
Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 704-720, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Transforming toward a circular economy (CE) is a viable strategy for achieving sustainable logistics systems. However, it is still unclear how this transformation should be approached because there is limited knowledge in this context. This study aims to explore how the logistics sector incorporates sustainability practices toward CE.

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Deep learning has become increasingly important in the analysis of digitized herbarium collections, which comprise millions of scans that provide valuable resources for studying plant evolution and biodiversity. However, leveraging deep learning algorithms to analyze these scans presents significant challenges, partly due to the ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 820-841, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Recent research suggests that the effect of greenwashing and corporate financial performance (CFP) is ambiguous. This call for study the contextual factors that create contingencies in the greenwashing–CFP relationship. Using a sample of 2816 observations covering 735 Chinese‐listed firms in 21 different industries from 2013 to 2017, this ...

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Pteridophytes—vascular land plants that disperse by spores—are a powerful system for studying plant evolution, particularly with respect to the impact of abiotic factors on evolutionary trajectories through deep time. However, our ability to use pteridophytes to investigate such questions—or to capitalize on the ecological and ...

A low‐cost protocol for the optical method of vulnerability curves to calculate P50
Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The quantification of plant drought resistance, particularly embolism formation, within and across species, is critical for ecosystem management and agriculture. We developed a cost‐effective protocol to measure the water potential at which 50% of hydraulic conductivity (P50) is lost in stems, using affordable and accessible materials ...

A pan‐cheloniid turtle from the Middle Miocene of Portugal
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Currently, there is no information on the fossil record of Pan‐Cheloniidae from the Neogene of the Iberian Peninsula. A well‐preserved partial skeleton attributable to this lineage of turtles, from the Middle Miocene of Portugal, is presented here.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.
