Perpetual Futures Pricing

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perpetual futures are contracts without expiration date in which the anchoring of the futures price to the spot price is ensured by periodic funding payments from long to short. We derive explicit expressions for the no‐arbitrage price of various perpetual contracts, including linear, inverse, and quantos futures in both discrete and ...

Evolutionary legacies structure the geography of seagrass traits across the world's oceans

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Traits modulate species' ability to track shifts in climate, yet the extent to which traits have been shaped by the contemporary environment and/or historical processes remains poorly understood. Here, we fill this gap for the world's seagrasses, habitat‐forming species that provide critical ecosystem services.

Stochastic Simulation Model for Forecasting Index‐Linked Public Expenditure

open access: yesPublic Budgeting &Finance, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper introduces a system dynamics (SD) model for analyzing public sector cost growth, where costs are tied to indices. The SD model isolates the effects of automatic indexation, providing probabilistic projections of expenditure growth. It enables testing of alternative indexation strategies and cost‐reduction measures. Findings show how

Leaf Length Predicts Twig Xylem Vessel Diameter Across Angiosperms

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As plants grow taller, increasing conductive pathlength imposes hydraulic resistance, challenging the maintenance of water transport to leaves. While tip‐to‐base conduit widening along the stem helps mitigate this resistance, theoretical models and empirical data suggest that stem widening alone is insufficient to fully compensate.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...
