Flow Characteristics and Response Surface Methodology‐Based Pressure‐Loss Prediction Models for the Reverse Circulation Converter in Double‐Wall Drill Pipes

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Flow characteristics and pressure loss mechanisms of a reverse circulation converter in dual‐wall drill pipes are systematically investigated using CFD and response surface methodology. The results reveal the dominant role of inertial dissipation and provide a predictive framework for optimizing converter design and operational parameters. ABSTRACT The

THE VIOLENCE OF FULL COST RECOVERY: Financing Water Infrastructure, and the History and Future of Perpetual Crisis in Mombasa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Foregrounding the role of finance, this article examines the historical production and future trajectory of the urban water crisis in Mombasa. Drawing on archival research and contemporary fieldwork, it traces how principles of full cost recovery—institutionalized during the colonial period and later reworked through postcolonial ...

Chironomid‐based summer temperature reconstruction of the Eemian–Weichselian transition at Lichtenberg, northern Germany

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Understanding the temperature variability of past interglacial cycles is essential to predict future climates. We present a new summer temperature reconstruction, based on the subfossil chironomid record from a small palaeolake adjacent to the Middle Palaeolithic site of Lichtenberg, northern Germany. The record spans from the Saalian late glacial over

CFO overconfidence, environmental violations, and firm performance. The moderating role of constituency statutes

open access: yesEuropean Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the relationship between Chief Financial Officer (CFO) overconfidence and firm performance through the lens of environmental violations and constituency statutes. Drawing on stakeholder and upper echelons theories, we find that firms with overconfident CFOs are more likely to commit environmental violations, which ...

Reengaging Criminology in Regulation and Governance: A Synergistic Research Agenda on Regulatory Guardianship

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent literature calls for scholars to bridge the divide that has emerged between criminology and regulation and governance. In the current work, we propose that criminological opportunity theories provide one fruitful pathway to that end.

An experimental approach to assess the combined effects of multiple stressors on a large vertebrate species

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract The design of experiments to investigate the combined effects of multiple stressors requires exposing target organisms to multiple combinations of stressor doses. Concurrent manipulation of stressors is often infeasible with wildlife, but long‐lasting health effects allow individual health to be used as an integrator of prior stressor exposure.

Information Design in Common Value Auction With Moral Hazard: Application to OCS Leasing Auctions

open access: yesEconometrica, Volume 94, Issue 4, Page 1171-1208, July 2026.
This paper explores the impact of information design on the auctioneer's revenue in the U.S. offshore oil/gas lease auctions where, post‐auction, the winner decides whether to explore the auctioned tract and must pay the government a royalty on its production value.

Improved Constraints on Andean Glaciations From the Lake Titicaca Continental Drilling Record

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Long sedimentary records from tropical lakes provide crucial archives for reconstructing the timing and extent of tropical alpine glaciations, yet robust chronologies beyond the radiocarbon limit (ca. 50 ka) remain scarce. Here, we refine the ca. 350 kyr chronology for Lake Titicaca (Peru‐Bolivia) using radiocarbon dating, optically stimulated

The Impact of Acquisition Intensity on ESG Performance

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 4861-4875, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of Acquisition Intensity on ESG performance using a panel of 1,736 US‐listed companies from 2002 to 2023. Employing a robust OLS framework, we assess both Value‐Based and Volume‐Based Acquisition Intensity against overall ESG scores and their environmental, social, and governance pillars, controlling for firm

Element concentrations in tissues reveal spatial structure of Atlantic walrus management stocks

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
Differences in tissue element concentrations confirm geographic differentiation between 2 of Canada's walrus management stocks but reveal additional spatial structure within the largest stock that may have management implications. Abstract Ensuring harvested animal populations are managed at appropriate scales requires an understanding of underlying ...
