On an Aggregation Theory for Indicators Expressing Behaviors of Complex Systems With an Application to Sustainability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certain attributes of large‐scale complex systems are often expressed through sets of indicators. For example, the sustainability of an entity, be it a nation, a city, an energy system, a corporation etc., can be effectively represented by indicators and corresponding data series.

Exclusion and Exposure: How Social Inequality and Marginalization Shape Climate Vulnerability and Adaptation in Rural Communities

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change affects all individuals, regardless of wealth, social class, or religious background, though its impacts and adaptation strategies vary. While existing literature examines climate change adaptation based on farming categories, geographic regions, and cropping systems, limited research explores how social class shapes adaptation ...

The power of expressed humility: Early stage investors' reaction to humble entrepreneurs

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary We examine how entrepreneur‐expressed humility affects early stage investors' willingness to fund new ventures. In pitching contexts where investors rely on relational cues and implicit prototypes of entrepreneurs, we theorize three distinct pathways through which expressed humility shapes funding decisions. First, building on

In Situ Surface Reconstruction and Carbon Encapsulation for High‐Performance Pt‐Lean Catalysts beyond Conventional Core–Shell Designs

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A one‐step in situ fabrication produces Pt‐segregated nanoparticles encapsulated in porous carbon shells. This design drastically reduces Pt content while maintaining high oxygen reduction reaction activity and long‐term durability. The catalyst meets DOE targets even at ultralow Pt loading, presenting a practical pathway toward cost‐effective, high ...
