Assessing Agricultural Green Total Factor Productivity in Latin America
ABSTRACT The agricultural sector in Latin America plays a vital role in ensuring food security while impacting the environment. However, there remains a lack of analysis regarding the inputs responsible for pollution within its sub‐technologies. Hence, this article aims to assess agricultural green total factor productivity (TFP) through a novel ...

ABSTRACT Agricultural soils offer great potential for carbon sequestration through humus formation. One way to motivate farmers to build up humus is through humus programs. These are still at an early stage of development, poorly explored, and the number of participating farmers is low. Our aim is to explain the heterogeneity of farmers' willingness to

Alternative Policy Designs to Help Farmers Select Profitable Conservation Practices
ABSTRACT Voluntary private carbon initiatives (VPCIs) promote the implementation of agricultural conservation practices that mitigate emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) via financial incentives to participating farmers. Simultaneously, an array of public policies supports the adoption of conservation practices through technical and financial ...

Harnessing Digital Microstructure for Simulation‐Guided Optimization of Permanent Magnets
An experimental‐to‐computational workflow is presented that transforms experimental 3D focused ion beam‐scanning electron microscopy data into a simulation‐ready digital microstructure for multiphase functional materials. Using heavy‐rare‐earth‐free Nd–Fe–B magnets as a model system, the approach quantifies grain connectivity across complex secondary ...

Cross‐Modal Characterization of Thin‐Film MoS2 Using Generative Models
Cross‐modal learning is evaluated using atomic force microscopy (AFM), Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) through unsupervised learning, regression, and autoencoder models. Autoencoder models are used to generate spectroscopy data from the microscopy images.
