Genetic polymorphisms related to muscular strength and flexibility are associated with artistic gymnastic performance in the Japanese population

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 23, Issue 6, Page 955-963, June 2023., 2023

Toxic chemical releases and idiosyncratic return volatility: A prospect theory perspective

Accounting &Finance, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 2109-2143, June 2023., 2023
Abstract We investigated whether and how firms’ toxic chemical releases (TCRs) affect idiosyncratic return volatility (IRV) using a prospect theory lens. Utilising a large sample of US public listed firms over the period 2001–2018, we find a significant and positive association between TCRs and IRV, suggesting that firms releasing more toxic chemicals ...

Characterizing Downstream Migration Timing of American Eels Using Commercial Catch Data in the Penobscot and Delaware Rivers

Marine and Coastal Fisheries, Volume 13, Issue 5, Page 534-547, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Adult “silver‐phase” American Eels Anguilla rostrata were a focus of commercial fisheries in the 1970s and 1980s, but stocks have been depleted due to many anthropogenic factors. One significant source of mortality occurs during the downstream migration of eels when passing through turbines at hydroelectric facilities. We sought to construct a

Robust novel high‐order accurate numerical methods for singularly perturbed convection‐diffusion problems

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2005
For singularly perturbed boundary value problems, numerical methods convergent ϵ‐uniformly have the low accuracy. So, for parabolic convection‐diffusion problem the order of convergence does not exceed one even if the problem data are sufficiently smooth.
