Bone histological evidence for posture‐related load transmission in the talpid pectoral girdle

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Bone histology of the clavicle and scapula revealed distinct load‐bearing roles within the mammalian pectoral girdle associated with different forelimb postures. Hyper‐abducted moles exhibited an enhanced load‐bearing role of the clavicle, whereas the parasagittal shrew exhibited histological features consistent with the scapula acting as the principal

‘Let's Go to the Land Instead’: Indigenous Perspectives on Biodiversity and the Possibilities of Regenerative Capital

open access: yesJournal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract The land has been a source of capital accumulation since colonization through extractive activities like mining and industrial agriculture. Indigenous peoples have profoundly different relationships with the land, which are more relational than extractive. However, their knowledge has been subjugated by and systematically excluded from Western

Contingent capital: A tale of two valuations

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the valuation gap between buyers and sellers of insurers' contingent capital, driven by asymmetric exposures to tax benefits, capital injections, and bankruptcy costs. We develop a novel Twin‐Tree Model with Jumps (TTMJ) that models the insurer's asset value dynamics by incorporating catastrophe risk, insolvency risk ...

On the importance of shelter availability for reptiles provided by burrow‐digging ecosystem engineers: A systematic review and a case study

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In this article, we show that ground burrows influenced reptile populations inconsistently across both the 5‐year field study in the Kiskunság and the broader systematic review, which together revealed positive, negative, and neutral effects across species and habitat types.

Generics favor stability

open access: yesMind &Language, EarlyView.
Humans seek to predict, explain, and control their environments. Generalizations—like those expressed by “children like candy” and “cigarettes cause cancer”—provide one resource to facilitate these tasks. We develop a proposal tying the acceptability judgments of generics to the psychological functions of generalizations.
