Abstract This article examines the relationship between growth, emissions, population density, renewable energy consumption, urban population, and climate finance using a panel data for 141 countries between 1990 and 2015. The study revisits the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis by focusing specifically on the developing country context.

Abstract Hurricanes and other extreme events are increasing in many regions, yet their long‐term impacts on ecosystem function are uncertain. In forested ecosystems, soil solution chemistry provides an important tool to assess the impacts of disturbance on nutrient cycling and dissolved organic carbon dynamics.

In this study, we propose that the small protein ScrA acts as a link between the ArlRS and SaeRS two‐component systems in Staphylococcus aureus. ArlR positively regulates scrA expression and the resulting ScrA protein activates the SaeRS system, causing increased expression of Sae regulon genes.

The challenge of developing special economic zones in Africa: Evidence and lessons learnt
Abstract Special economic zones (SEZs) are mushrooming across the developing world. Increasingly, policymakers resort to zones with the aim of turning around their countries’ economic fortunes. Zones are expected to deliver greater innovation, exports, knowledge and technological spillovers.

Abstract Intervals of extreme warmth are predicted to drive a decrease in the oxygen content of the oceans. This prediction has been tested for the acme of short (<1 million years) episodes of significant marine anoxia in the Phanerozoic geological record known as Oceanic Anoxic Events (OAEs).

Anthropogenic oil in the ocean is of great concern due to its potential immediate and long‐term impacts on the ecosystem, economy, and society, leading to intense societal efforts to mitigate and reduce inputs. Sources of oil in the ocean (in the order of importance) are natural marine seepage, run‐off from anthropogenic sources, and oil spills, yet ...

Abstract In the past three decades, Puerto Rico (PR) experienced five hurricanes that met or exceeded category three, and they caused severe forest structural damage and elevated tree mortality. To improve our mechanistic understanding of hurricane impacts on tropical forests and assess hurricane‐affected forest dynamics in Earth system models, we use ...
