Reference‐dependent preferences in flat penalty service‐level contracts
Journal of Operations Management, Volume 69, Issue 8, Page 1219-1234, December 2023., 2023 Abstract This paper investigates a supply chain governed by a flat penalty service‐level contract in which missing the target fill rate can lead to costly operational disruption. We focus on near‐miss bias: (1) the preference for near‐miss events, that is, risky production quantities that reach the target but narrowly avoid disruption; and (2) riskier ...

Canadian Geographer / Le géographe canadien, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 537-549, Winter / hiver 2023., 2023 Résumé Au Québec, la dynamique fluviale de la rivière des Escoumins a été perturbée par l'industrie forestière pendant plus d'un siècle. Un barrage a notamment été construit près de l'embouchure en 1846, puis démantelé en 2013. Ces perturbations ont entraîné des répercussions importantes sur l'équilibre du cours d'eau et sur l'habitat du saumon ...

Three thousand years of river channel engineering in the Nile Valley
Geoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 5, Page 565-587, September/October 2023., 2023 Abstract Across a 1000‐km stretch of the River Nile, from the 1st Cataract in southern Egypt to the 4th Cataract in Sudan, many hundreds of drystone walls are located within active channels, on seasonally inundated floodplains or in now‐dry Holocene palaeochannel belts.

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 31-45, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Molecular phylogenetic studies have shown that the characters of the reduced shell of the false limpets of the genus Siphonaria Sowerby I, 1823 are highly variable and often insufficient for species delimitation. The taxonomy and distribution of Siphonaria in the Indian Ocean are poorly known.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 30, Issue 14, Page 3610-3623, July 2021., 2021 Abstract Whether freshwater fish colonize remote islands following tectonic or transoceanic dispersal remains an evolutionary puzzle. Integrating dating of known tectonic events with phylogenomics and current species distribution, we find that killifish species distribution is not explained by species dispersal by tectonic drift only. Investigating the

Fishers perceptions of ecosystem service change associated with climate‐disturbed coral reefs
People and Nature, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 639-657, June 2021., 2021 Abstract Understanding ecosystem service change necessitates an understanding of the social and ecological dimensions of ecosystem services and how they contribute to the well‐being of different people. These empirical research gaps persist across the tropics and in coastal environments, posing a challenge for small island states that depend on ...
