The Consequences of Soil Organic Carbon for Crop Yield, Farm Productivity and Profit
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Crop choices affect soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, allowing farmers to manipulate the amount of carbon sequestered in the soil over time. This paper examines the private and public benefits of crop rotations that sequester additional carbon across the province of Saskatchewan, Canada using a novel field‐level dataset from the Saskatchewan ...

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Achieving global climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation and restoration goals requires innovative solutions that balance carbon sequestration with biodiversity conservation. Payments for ecosystem services markets often treat carbon sequestration and biodiversity separately, but integrating biodiversity as a co‐benefit within ...

The social life of money for children
The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.Abstract Inspired by Nigel Dodd's The Social Life of Money, this article proposes an analysis of entangled economic lives, that is, how meaning, structures and politics jointly shape the flow of monies within households. The past decades have marked a shift from “childrearing expenditures” to “parenting investments” that align with new visions of both ...

Experience and self‐interest: Diverging responses to global warming
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract People are increasingly feeling global warming's effects through extreme heat and natural disasters. How do these climate shocks affect political attitudes? We argue that the effect of climate‐related experiences depends significantly on self‐interest.

TABI: Tight and Balanced Interactive Atlas Packing
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Atlas packing is a key step in many computer graphics applications. Packing algorithms seek to arrange a set of charts within a fixed‐size atlas with as little downscaling as possible. Many packing applications such as content creation tools, dynamic atlas generation for video games, and texture space shading require on‐the‐fly interactive ...

Variable‐Rate Texture Compression: Real‐Time Rendering with JPEG
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Although variable‐rate compressed image formats such as JPEG are widely used to efficiently encode images, they have not found their way into real‐time rendering due to special requirements such as random access to individual texels. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of variable‐rate texture compression on modern GPUs using the ...

Comprehensive framework for assessing and optimizing existing research networks
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Conservation, monitoring, and research networks, or collections of ecological research sites unified under a common mission of data collection or a research mission, are essential infrastructure for understanding large landscapes. However, most networks developed opportunistically over decades rather than through systematic design, creating ...
