Climate exposure drives firm political behavior: Evidence from earnings calls and lobbying data
Abstract When and how do firms engage in climate politics? We argue that regulatory concerns, business opportunities, and physical risks activate policy preferences and lobbying efforts. We measure firm‐level exposure to opportunity, regulatory, and physical aspects of climate change based on discussion in quarterly earnings call transcripts for 11,705

Skin Cancers in Australian Liver Transplant Recipients: Risk Factors and Histology
ABSTRACT Background Skin cancer is one of the most common comorbidities for liver transplant recipients (LTRs). Carcinogenesis is a multifaceted process: immunosuppression and personal risk factors such as smoking status, UV exposure, past history of skin cancer and family history of skin cancer can all play a significant role in determining the extent

Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons
Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

The Material Basis of 18th‐Century Meissen Porcelain
ABSTRACT In the summer of 1708, the quest for making hard‐paste porcelain from Saxonian clay and other mineral resources succeeded. This was achieved by applying as its essential ingredient newly discovered pure kaolin from Heidelsberg near Aue, western Saxon Ore Mountains.

Late Holocene moisture variability in Arctic Alaska from chitin δ18O
Amplified warming in the Arctic has resulted in reduced sea‐ice extent, which can impact regional climate dynamics. Elucidating past moisture variability in response to changing temperatures and sea‐ice conditions can offer insight into how anthropogenic climate change may impact Arctic areas such as the Alaskan North Slope in the future. We contribute

Accurate measurement of evapotranspiration (ET) is essential for sustainable water management. Standard methods such as eddy covariance (EC) are costly, while alternatives such as surface renewal are cheaper but require calibration and complex data ...

Abstract The past decade has seen a huge increase in clinical research with psychedelic drugs and 3,4‐methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), which have revealed great potential for treating mental health conditions. Given this progress in research, as well as the current unmet clinical need of millions of patients, in 2023, the Australian Therapeutic ...

Licence Loss: Revocations of Residential Care Licences in Four Nordic Countries
ABSTRACT With placement in residential care, society assumes overall responsibility for a child's daily care, well‐being and development. How public authorities respond to poor care quality is of crucial importance. To guarantee quality care and minimise risks, welfare states increasingly develop different mechanisms and systems to supervise out‐of ...

ABSTRACT Prior work suggests that children who are supported by their extended family kinship network experience fewer internalizing problems, with most of this support coming from the maternal side of the family. However, less is known about the unique contributions to well‐being associated with maternal versus paternal extended family support among ...

PBR‐Inspired Controllable Diffusion for Image Generation
Abstract Despite recent advances in text‐to‐image generation, controlling geometric layout and PBR material properties in synthesized scenes remains challenging. We present a pipeline that first produces a G‐buffer (albedo, normals, depth, roughness, shading, and metallic) from a text prompt and then renders a final image through a PBR‐inspired branch ...
