ABSTRACT ‘Hard’ natural sciences have extensively been used to provide evidence that climate change is happening and climate action is needed. If the contribution of our economic activities to disturbing our climate systems is now largely accepted, the way in which we design and operationalise ‘climate action’—how we transition to more sustainable ...

Abstract Research Summary Corporate entrepreneurship (CE) requires firms to pursue both exploratory and exploitative innovation, yet limited research explains how intellectual capital (IC) is translated into these distinct outcomes. We develop a contingency model that specifies how and when IC drives exploration and exploitation.

Multivariable CLT for critical points
We prove a multivariate central limit theorem for the numbers of critical points with all possible indexes which lie above a level of a non-necessarily isotropic Gaussian random field. We prove the non-degeneracy of the limit joint distribution in the isotropic case.

Evaluating the Energy Efficiency of Optimization Techniques in C, Python, and Java
ABSTRACT Background Software plays a critical role in modern society, but its energy consumption is a growing concern. This issue is especially evident in the Internet of Things (IoT), which involves billions of devices operating under strict energy constraints, most of which rely on C Programming Language (PL) because of its energy efficiency. Outside

fishmax: An R package for Bayesian estimation of maximum body size in animals
Abstract Maximum body size is a key trait of an animal species, determining its population dynamics, productivity and interactions with other species and the environment. For fish in particular, the maximum body length or Lmax$$ {L}_{\mathrm{max}} $$ correlates strongly to other life history parameters and is commonly used in ecological models and ...
