Abstract We explore configurations of sufficient and necessary conditions for the evolution and resilience of borrower trust in their lenders. Because trust is a dynamic phenomenon that needs to be understood in terms of change over time, we rely on longitudinal data collected from managers of small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SME) who are clients ...

Flowering Ecology of the Species of the Genus Hypoxidia (Hypoxidaceae: Asparagales)
Hypoxidia (Hypoxidaceae) is endemic to the Seychelles islands. The two species H. rhizophylla and H. maheensis have rarely been studied. The first studies of floral ecology are described based on 19 years of observations of cultivated (1992–1994) and wild (1998–2011) plants of H. rhizophylla and a single flowering event of cultivated H. maheensis. In H.

Abstract Bivalve mollusks are vital to coastal economies and food security, yet the impact of ocean warming and acidification on aquaculture remains unclear due to a lack of ground truth data on future production. Most experimental studies rely on short‐term, single‐factor experiments in stable and food‐unlimited environments, making it difficult to ...

Climate risks, digital media, and big data: following communication trails to investigate urban communities' resilience [PDF]
Today, when extreme weather affects an urban area, huge numbers of digital data are spontaneously produced by the population on the Internet. These “digital trails” can provide insight into the interactions existing between climate-related risks and the
