Graph tools for analysing trophic assemblies in the isotopic space
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract A large amount of information on the trophic assembly of ecosystems is summarized in the isotopic space, and metrics for extracting this information are essential. Here, we show how the characterization of the isotopic space as an isotopic‐network of organisms linked by their trophic similarity significantly expands the isotopic toolbox for ...

Quality Regulation and Unexpected Gaming: Evidence From Mandating Flight Delay Compensation
Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Policies that target a single aspect of agents' motivation may lead to their diminished efforts in other areas. This paper examines the effect of the European Union's flight delay compensation policy on flight on‐time performance by exploiting a unique policy variation in a difference‐in‐differences framework.
