A link between increased temperature and avian body condition in a logged tropical forest

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The combined effects of anthropogenic disturbances, such as logging and climate change, remain poorly understood; yet, they are the main threats to tropical biodiversity. Most tropical African countries lack long‐term climate data, so climate impacts on biodiversity cannot be assessed.

Miners' Reward Elasticity and Stability of Competing Proof‐of‐Work Cryptocurrencies

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proof‐of‐Work cryptocurrencies employ miners to sustain the system through algorithmic reward adjustments. We develop a stochastic model of the multicurrency mining and identify conditions for stable transaction speeds. Bitcoin's algorithm requires hash supply elasticity <$<$1 for stability, while ASERT remains stable for any elasticity and ...

Doing Item Reviewing in and Through Interaction: What It Takes to Problematize and Revise a Language Test Item

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.

Drawing on video recordings of IR sessions in an English preparatory school at the tertiary level, it examines how EFL teachers problematize and revise syllabus‐based language test items

Compact Parallel Hash Tables on the GPU

open access: yes
On the GPU, hash table operation speed is determined in large part by cache line efficiency, and state-of-the-art hashing schemes thus divide tables into cache line-sized buckets. This raises the question whether performance can be further improved by increasing the number of entries that fit in such buckets.

Linking the Comparison and Graphical Approaches to Bipartite Matching

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Bipartite record linkage has the goal of identifying observations referring to the same individual, called coreferent observations, across two distinct non‐duplicated datasets. The two main approaches to solve this task are the Fellegi–Sunter model, which relies on pairwise comparisons of observations, and the graphical record linkage model ...

Waking a Dormant Legal Resource: Institutional Activation and the Origins of Important Projects of Common European Interest

open access: yesJCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Important Projects of Common European Interest (IPCEIs) have become a central tool of the European Union's (EU) new industrial policy. IPCEIs derive their peculiar name from an exemption to the general prohibition on state aid that has existed since the Treaty of Rome but has only led to the creation of a stand‐alone policy instrument in 2014.

The Making of the EU's Geoeconomic ‘Bazooka’: The Anti‐Coercion Instrument and the Role of Think Tanks in European Union Foreign Policy

open access: yesJCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract The Anti‐Coercion Instrument (ACI), the most powerful tool in the EU's geoeconomic arsenal, has its origins in the first Trump US presidency and has recently been brandished again as a potential response to Trump's coercive tariffs. Its centrality to the EU's ‘geoeconomic turn’ and the twists and turns of its legislative history have been ...
