Ain't Misbehavin': Leveraging Supplier Codes of Conduct in Pursuit of Supply Chain Choreography

Journal of Business Logistics, Volume 47, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Supplier codes of conduct (SCOCs) are widely used in sustainable supply chain management. Yet, many of the targeted issues (e.g., child labor, poor working conditions) remain persistent concerns. We present a multi‐method study that explores SCOC history and the barriers and enablers to implementation.

Leaf gas exchange measurement for steady‐state stomatal conductance model calibration

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 672-690, April 2026.
Summary Stomatal conductance models are essential components of crop and land surface models, but collecting data to calibrate them remains challenging due to large leaf‐to‐leaf variability, slow stomatal kinetics, and a lack of consistent measurement protocols, leading to unknown reliability and representativeness of calibrated model parameter ...

Sudden Vertical Velocity Regime Shifts Initiate Flash Drought in Puerto Rico

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract This study focuses on flash drought events in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. Because the rapid onset and intensity of flash drought can potentially cause more devastation without established prediction methods, this research seeks to understand the synoptic scale atmospheric drivers of flash drought events. The primary goal of this study is to
