Basis risk, social comparison, perceptions of fairness, and demand for insurance: A field experiment in Ethiopia

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract Index insurance lowers agricultural risk but covers only covariate risks. Since farmers do not have complete insurance, they may develop mistrust of insurance when experiencing crop losses and not receiving payouts. Although recent innovations in remote sensing enable the provision of more complete insurance including coverage for ...

A clonal legacy? Reproductive mode variation in hard‐ and soft‐bottom Gracilaria vermiculophylla populations

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The invasion of the red macroalga Gracilaria vermiculophylla provided an opportunity to investigate the influence of benthic habitats on the reproductive mode, population structure, and colonization dynamics in haploid‐diploid life cycles.

An updated classification of growth forms in non‐geniculate coralline algae (Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The current challenge of defining growth forms in the non‐geniculate coralline red algae was addressed. Since the 19th century, those who have worked on this large and globally distributed group of algae have tried to summarize and systematically describe their growth forms. This effort resulted in a plethora of terms, which could sometimes be

Adapting the growth‐form concept to geniculate coralline algae (Corallinales, Rhodophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Geniculate coralline algae (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) are a diverse group of calcifying macroalgae, loosely united by flexible upright axes formed by alternating calcified (intergenicula) and uncalcified segments (genicula), a trait that has independently arisen several times.

Markov Determinantal Point Process for Dynamic Random Sets

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Law of Determinantal Point Process (LDPP) is a flexible parametric family of distributions over random sets defined on a finite state space, or equivalently over multivariate binary variables. The aim of this paper is to introduce Markov processes of random sets within the LDPP framework. We show that, when the pairwise distribution of two
