Exploring the cranial morphology and possible convergences of Triassic non‐crocodylomorph pseudosuchians (Archosauria: Pseudosuchia) with other sauropsids through linear morphometrics

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Triassic pseudosuchians had highly diversified cranial morphologies. These archosaurs occupied diverse ecological roles, ranging from terrestrial predators and herbivores to semiaquatic ambush predators and possible waders. Here, we apply linear cranial morphometrics to assess possible convergences with other sauropsids from the clades ...

Microbial Community Response to a Novel Salmon Resource Subsidy

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Salmon decomposition is traditionally viewed through the lens of energy and nutrient subsidies, but not as a potential “microbial subsidy.” Microbial communities residing on and within spawning salmon are directly introduced into streams after host death.

Diet of bird‐like troodontid dinosaurs: synthesis of a contentious clade

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Troodontidae is a clade of small‐to medium‐sized maniraptoran theropods that mainly lived in Laurasia (modern Asia, North America and Europe) during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods and are believed to have had a variety of diets. The uniqueness of troodontid teeth suggests that they diverged from the typical flesh‐based diet of non‐avian ...

Human-Mediated Carrion: Effects on Ecological Processes

open access: yes, 2019
Humans play an essential role as modulators of energy flow within food webs in terrestrial and marine ecosystems. This is especially relevant given their capacity to generate large amounts of carrion as a result of anthropogenic activities. These trophic subsidies have increased since the twentieth century due to uses related to livestock management ...

Corporate Decarbonization: Understanding CO2 Emission Drivers Across High‐ and Low‐Polluting Firms in OECD Countries

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Decarbonization of the economy is a central challenge in the fight against climate change. Although most governments show clear commitment to limiting global warming, the drivers of corporate decarbonization remain underexplored. Using a dataset of 1052 firms from OECD, this article analyses how intangible assets and environmental innovation ...

Asset Redeployability and Biodiversity Risk

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine how asset redeployability influences a firm's exposure to biodiversity risk. Our empirical analysis provides robust evidence that firms possessing greater levels of redeployable assets exhibit significantly lower biodiversity risk.
