Bioenergy Cropping Reduces the Spatiotemporal Scaling of Soil Bacterial Biodiversity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Consistent with patterns observed in plant and animal communities, soil bacterial communities exhibit significant species–time–area and phylogenetic–time–area relationships independent of nested structure. Bioenergy cropping significantly reduces the spatiotemporal scaling rates, particularly in sandy loam soils.

Modern Management: Good for the Environment of Just Hot Air? [PDF]
We use an innovative methodology to measure management practices in over 300 manufacturing firms in the UK. We then match this management data to production and energy usage information for establishments owned by these firms. We find that establishments

Productivity, energy prices, and the Great Moderation: a new link [PDF]
We study how total factor productivity (TFP), energy prices, and the Great Moderation are linked. First we estimate a joint stochastic process for the energy price and TFP and establish that until the second quarter of 1982, energy prices negatively ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.An activity‐dependent pathway links prefrontal circuit hypoactivity to cognitive impairment. Reduced PVA–mPFC activity upregulates NEPAS, which suppresses PTX3 secretion, leading to impaired angiogenesis, myelin deficits, and memory decline. Rescue is achieved by NEPAS knockdown or chemogenetic circuit activation.

Natural Variation of NAR5 Determines Nitrogenase Activity and the Yield in Soybean
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identified NAR5, a gene encoding a subtilisin‐like protease, that regulates nitrogenase activity in soybean nodules. Overexpressing NAR5 delayed nodule senescence, enhancing nitrogenase activity, yield, and low‐nitrogen tolerance. The elite haplotype NAR5HapI‐1 linked to superior nitrogenase activity and greater seed weight has been ...

Climate Risk Perception and Firms’ Energy Productivity: Evidence from China
SystemsWhether firms translate climate risk perception into energy-related operational productivity remains unclear. Panel data on non-financial Chinese firms (2012–2023) are used to examine the association between climate risk perception (CRP) and energy ...

Total Factor Productivity Growth when Factors of Production Generate Environmental Externalities [PDF]
Total factor productivity growth (TFPG) has been traditionally associated with technological change. We show that when a factor of production, such as energy, generates an environmental externality in the form of CO₂ emissions which is not internalized ...
