Does ESG Drive Performance or Does Performance Enable ESG? Evidence of Reverse Causality From Korean Firms

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)‐performance literature has grown substantially, yet a fundamental question remains underexplored: do ESG investments improve firm performance, or do high‐performing firms simply invest more in ESG? We empirically address this question using panel vector autoregression with Granger causality tests

Explainable hybrid stacking ensemble method for hard rock pillar stability prediction and engineering applications

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This research proposes an interpretable hybrid stacking ensemble framework, optimized by the Sparrow Search Algorithm, to enhance hard rock pillar stability prediction. By integrating six machine learning models—k‐nearest neighbors, support vector machines, random forests, Gradient Boosting Decision Tree, eXtreme Gradient Boosting, and Light Gradient ...

Dental development in the tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) and the evolution of vertebrate dentitions

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.
