Climate exposure drives firm political behavior: Evidence from earnings calls and lobbying data
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract When and how do firms engage in climate politics? We argue that regulatory concerns, business opportunities, and physical risks activate policy preferences and lobbying efforts. We measure firm‐level exposure to opportunity, regulatory, and physical aspects of climate change based on discussion in quarterly earnings call transcripts for 11,705

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

Structure and agency in emancipatory reform: A blueprint from a Black union
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract The National Labor Convention of 1869, the first of its kind for African American workers, yielded a grand strategy for achieving full emancipation, in which those long subjected to domination might attain durable independence. Drawing upon decades of Black republican thought, this agenda combined macro‐level reforms targeting agrarian and ...

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT One core aspect of science is communication, both among researchers as well as with the public. For successful communication, it is crucial that the terminology used is clear to avoid misunderstandings. Especially when researchers working on different groups of organisms communicate, they often use different terms for similar morphological ...

Deindustrialization and demographic change: Evidence from big plant closures and downsizing
Canadian Journal of Economics/Revue canadienne d'économique, EarlyView.Abstract We estimate the causal effect of big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing on the socioeconomic composition of Canadian cities between 2001 and 2021. Our instrumental variables estimates show that big manufacturing plant closures and downsizing—large local labour demand shocks—lead to less population growth and a shift in the demographic

EMU and trade: The euro effect on the agricultural sector
Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics/Revue canadienne d'agroeconomie, EarlyView.Abstract This paper uses a structural gravity model to examine the partial equilibrium effects of the European Monetary Union (EMU) on trade for the agricultural sector. We find robust evidence that EMU has increased trade both between members and between EMU and non‐EMU member countries. This positive link is found in most member countries.

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Targeted enrichment of ultraconserved elements (UCEs) is a powerful tool for resolving phylogeny in groups with limited morphological or molecular data. Here, we use UCEs to reconstruct the first comprehensive phylogeny of the chiton superfamily Cryptoplacoidea, including museum material up to 133 years old.
