Benthic Macroinvertebrate Recovery After Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrades: Implications for Biomonitoring

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the past decade, major upgrades have been made to the Kitchener and Waterloo wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in the Grand River watershed in Ontario, Canada. As part of efforts to evaluate the effectiveness of these investments (>$450 M CDN), a benthic macroinvertebrate (BMI) monitoring program was initiated by sampling upstream and

Robotics‐assisted acoustic surveys could deliver reliable, landscape‐level biodiversity insights

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Deploying and maintaining sensors is often a major bottleneck in collecting rapid biodiversity data. We tested whether autonomous hopping drones equipped with acoustic recorders could collect reliable biodiversity data in Costa Rica. Using 26,000+ hours of existing audio from 341 sites, with machine learning detections of 19 bird species and spider ...

Programmed unmanned aerial vehicles show great potential for monitoring marine megafauna in specific areas of interest

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

Youth Entrepreneurship Narratives in South Asia: Digital Transformation, Green Innovation, and Sustainable Development Pathways

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines youth entrepreneurship narratives in South Asia to show how digital and green orientations are expressed and communicated to build legitimacy in the post‐COVID context. Using computational text analysis of 450 documents (startup websites, incubator reports, and government policy statements from 2018 to 2024), the study ...

Upfront payments to venture‐backed startups in technology alliances: Bargaining effects of VC affiliations

Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Upfront payments are important financial resources startups seek to negotiate in technology alliances. This study unpacks how venture‐backed startups can benefit from their VC affiliations and obtain better payments. We develop a bargaining framework and argue that VCs can strengthen venture‐backed startups' hand in alliance ...
