Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

Do Commodity Prices and Energy Markets Drive Asymmetric Volatility in Biodiversity Finance?

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines symmetric and asymmetric volatility spillovers among biodiversity finance, commodity prices, and energy markets using daily data from 2019 to 2025. We apply the Diebold–Yilmaz time–domain connectedness model, Baruník–Křehlík frequency–domain decomposition, and an asymmetric spillover framework.
