Modelling compressive loading in large‐bodied mammals reveals distinct biomechanical strategies in proboscidean humeri

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Graviportal proboscideans differ in limb morphology, adopting slender or more robust long bone morphotypes. Finite element analyses (FEA) on extant and extinct taxa reveal functional differences between morphotypes, with robust humeri exhibiting lower peak stress under neutral and off‐axis loading.

Integrating road safety and environmental impact via telematics: Modeling traffic accident risk using vehicle emissions

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐emission private vehicles disproportionately contribute to urban air pollution and road accidents, both major public health threats and leading causes of death among young adults. Balancing individual driving behavior with collective environmental responsibility necessitates strategies that promote safer and cleaner driving.

Estimating National and Foreign Trade Elasticities Using Generalized Transport Costs

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 471-496, March 2025.
ABSTRACT We introduce the definition of two distinct trade elasticities corresponding to imports from regions located in the same country (national elasticities) and foreign regions located in other countries (foreign elasticities). We resort to a three‐tier nested CES utility structure to derive the corresponding demand gravity equations.

Herd Effects in United States Internal Migration: Complementary Emulation Mechanisms Across Distance and Educational Attainment

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Internal migration in the United States is highly structured, concentrating into persistent corridors that link specific origins and destinations. While earlier studies have focused on social networks and push‐pull factors, less is known about how individuals emulate migration choices across regions. This study decomposes herd effects into two

A Temporal Perspective on Corporate Venture Capital Investments' Potential to Drive Innovation

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corporate venture capital (CVC) investments are a major means by which corporations access information from startups to facilitate their own innovation. While the literature implies a static perspective, we offer a dynamic account that accommodates CVC investments' typical occurrence in staged rounds.

A Mixed‐Method Study on Gender and Intrahousehold Differences in Food Consumption From Khatlon Province, Tajikistan

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tajikistan faces significant food insecurity and multiple forms of malnutrition in its population, with women particularly at risk. Social norms related to gender and intrahousehold hierarchy are pervasive. Yet, how gender impacts dietary intake in Tajikistan remains to be studied.

Respondent‐Driven Sampling as a Tool for Studying Migrants in Need of International Protection: New Evidence from Costa Rica

Population and Development Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Threat evasion—the need to escape imminent threats to safety and survival—is a major driver of international migration. Demographic research on threat‐evasive migration, however, remains scant, owing to a longstanding dearth of systematic data on migrants in need of international protection (MNP).

Addressing multiple management goals during roadside restoration: reducing weed invasion and fire risk while enhancing native plants and pollinator habitat in semiarid, invaded grasslands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Roadside vegetation management efforts often target a single desirable outcome; however, we frequently have multiple management goals for restoration. Multiple goals may be achieved concurrently, but the efficacy of roadside revegetation methods is largely unclear, especially when multiple methods are combined.

Soil inoculation enhances early‐phase reintroduction success in two rare plant species

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Reintroduction for conservation is an important measure to restore populations of vulnerable plant species. However, reintroduction success rates are relatively low. Inoculating reintroduced plants with facilitative microorganisms from native populations may enhance their performance.
