Is free trade good for renewable resources? Brander and Taylor redux
Abstract This paper generalizes the original Brander and Taylor model of open‐access renewable resource use and trade to address three common critiques. First, I introduce heterogeneity across agents in harvesting productivity to smooth out the model's extreme specialization patterns while maintaining its Ricardian structure and tractability. Second, I

Spatial Patterns and Controlling Factors of River Flow Intermittency in Africa
Abstract Understanding river flow intermittency remains a major challenge in data‐scarce regions such as Africa. This study presents the first high‐resolution, four‐class intermittency map of African rivers using a sequential modeling approach based on Random Forest. A binary model (BC‐UNS) distinguishes perennial from non‐perennial reaches across 15.5

Geodetic Resolution of the Interplay Between Earthquakes and Slow Slip in the Hikurangi Margin
Abstract Interactions between slow slip and earthquakes remain poorly understood. We examine such an interaction in the central Hikurangi subduction zone where several moderate (Mw 4–5+) earthquakes occurred during a deep, 2‐year M7 slow slip event that started in 2021.

A novel approach for distinguishing noise and information in forest MLS‐point clouds
Abstract 3D laser scanning is a cornerstone of modern forest and ecological research, allowing detailed insight into forest structures and dynamics. Although point cloud processing and noise management are crucial steps in the exploitation of LiDAR data, traditional denoising methods are usually based on the assumption of a Gaussian noise distribution,

ABSTRACT This paper reports on the excavation of a cache of stone artefacts, buried on the bank of a waterhole or ‘billabong’ in central western Queensland. This is an extremely rare find, and yet it is the second such site to be reported within less than a 10 km radius.

First Measurements of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity From Peats of the Central Congo Basin
We show that saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) in surficial peats of central Congo Basin is low compared to deeper peat layers elsewhere in the tropics. Low Ksat in Congolese peats may be a result of low rainfall compared to other tropical peat forming regions, leading to deeper dry‐season water tables and more rapid decomposition.

Family Dynamics, Human Resource Practices and the Performance of Family Firms
ABSTRACT This study explores the impact of formalizing human resource (HR) practices on the performance of family firms. It also examines how family involvement in ownership and management, along with the presence of family employees, moderates this relationship.
