ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

rTCT: Rodent Triangle Completion Task to Facilitate Reverse Translational Study of Path Integration
ABSTRACT Path integration is navigation in the absence of environmental landmarks and is a primary cognitive mechanism underlying spatial memory. Path integration performance is primarily assessed in humans using the Triangle Completion Task (TCT). In humans, TCT has shown promise for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.

The Determinants of ESG Ratings: Rater Ownership Matters
ABSTRACT We examine whether and how common ownership affects Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings—an important research question given the increasing use of these ratings in investment decisions and corporate evaluations.
