Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Preferential trading in agriculture: New insights from a structural gravity analysis and machine learning

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) contain various non‐tariff provisions, yet identifying their trade effects remains challenging because these commitments are high‐dimensional and strongly correlated within agreements. We estimated a theory‐consistent structural gravity model with domestic flows for 26 agricultural subsectors over 1988–2017

The causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on Germany's grasslands during a compound drought and heatwave in 2018

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preserving ecosystem services, along with economic and environmental benefits, will require future landscape policies to identify and incorporate relevant landscape features. In this paper, we investigate the causal effect of agricultural landscape simplification on drought‐related grassland damages.

Orchestrating Anion–π+ Interactions to Accelerate Metal‐Free Room‐Temperature Phosphorescence

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Tuning anion–π+ interactions in pyridinium iodide contact ion pairs enables ultrafast metal‐free room‐temperature phosphorescence (540–605 nm) with radiative rates up to 5.2×105 s−1. Strong iodide→π+ charge‐transfer coupling, enhanced spin–orbit interactions, and dynamic ion‐pair organization accelerate intersystem crossing and emission, establishing ...

New Social Policy Ideas in the Making: The Case of Central and Eastern Europe [PDF]

open access: yes
Central and Eastern European countries have experienced a rapid transformation of their economic, political and welfare regime(s). From a state-paternalist welfare state, post-communist countries are now moving towards something new.

Linking community structure and climate vulnerability in desert plant assemblages of southern California

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

Luminescence Vapochromism of a Cu(I)/Na Phosphane Iodide Assembly Based on a Secondary‐Sphere Sodium Response

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The luminescence of a heterometallic d‐s {Cu2I2Na2} phosphane‐phosphinate aggregate is regulated by an interplay of Na+–π/I– contacts and reversible coordination of oxygen‐containing organic molecules to Na ions. Structural variations caused by the incoming guest lead to a wide and selective variation of the emission color and illustrate a new approach

Reproductive stages in lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) occur earlier with increasing temperature

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Climate change is altering the timing of many plant phenological events, yet most studies focus on flowering, with less attention given to later reproductive stages such as fruit development and ripening. Vaccinium angustifolium (lowbush blueberry) is an important perennial berry species that may be sensitive to these changes.

Central and Eastern Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The experience of Central and Eastern European countries with moving from centrally planned to open-market economies is examined in this collection of papers given at an April 1991 seminar, moderated by Georg Winckler and organized by the IMF and the Austrian National Bank.
