Biodiversity Credits: An Overview of the Current State, Future Opportunities, and Potential Pitfalls
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biodiversity credits are an emerging vehicle for pro‐environmental financing, yet much uncertainty remains around how and when they could boost biodiversity conservation. Here we define what biodiversity credits are and explore impact pathways through a proposed theory of change. Based on evidence from 34 pilot projects and a review of lessons

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1903 Introduction During the prosecution of field work in the Hamilton limestones of Michigan, I became aware of the existence of well marked isolated coral mounds or hillocks in the otherwise stratified and almost unfossiliferous limestones. These coral hillocks are particularly well exposed in the vicinity of Alpena, where several quarries have been ...

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Endovascular therapy (EVT) for chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in patients with critical limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) remains technically challenging, particularly in infrapopliteal lesions. Direct injection in occlusive lesions (DIOL) fashion is a novel adjunctive strategy that utilizes hydraulic contrast injection through a ...

Bahaman patch reefs: Numerous and neglected
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.Abstract Phanerozoic patch reefs are extensively studied because they are abundant and are potential reservoirs for valuable fluids. In contrast, geologic studies of modern reefs have largely focused on platform margins, leaving patch reefs comparatively neglected. What conditions favour patch‐reef development?
