Is It a Matter of Visibility Over Viability? CEO Narcissism and the Strategic Trade‐Off in Corporate Diversification

Strategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how CEO narcissism shapes corporate diversification strategies, addressing gaps in upper echelon and agency theories. Using a sample of 388 CEOs across 319 firms, we find that narcissistic CEOs drive higher levels of overall corporate diversification but exhibit a strategic trade‐off: they strongly favor unrelated ...

Calculation of the separation streamlines of barchans and transverse dunes

, 2006
We use FLUENT to calculate the wind profile over barchans and transverse dunes. The form of the streamlines of flow separation at the lee side of the dunes is determined for a symmetric barchan dune in three dimensions, and for the height profile of a ...

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Variation in early‐life maltreatment effects on adolescent psychopathology due to contamination

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined the effect of early‐life maltreatment on adolescent psychopathology and whether the significance and magnitude of this effect varied based on the presence of contamination (i.e., when individuals in a comparison group are exposed to maltreatment).

A simple model for the formation of vegetated dunes

, 2000
A simple model for the dynamics of dunes associated with vegetation is proposed. Using the model, formation processes of transverse dunes, parabolic dunes and elongated parabolic dunes according to two environmental factors: i)the amount of sand at the ...

Coal Mining as a Driver of Land Use and Land Cover Change and Degradation: A Case in Moatize City, Mozambique

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...

The DUNE-ALUGrid Module

, 2014
In this paper we present the new DUNE-ALUGrid module. This module contains a major overhaul of the sources from the ALUgrid library and the binding to the DUNE software framework. The main changes include user defined load balancing, parallel grid construction, and an redesign of the 2d grid which can now also be used for parallel computations.
