How developmental stressors affect mitochondrial respiratory function: a systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The environmental conditions organisms experience during early development can have powerful and sustained effects on morphology, physiology, behaviour, and performance. Such developmental effects can influence reproductive success, survival, and life‐history strategies and can be transmitted across generations (i.e.

Resolving the biome debate: ecological and palaeo‐data concur that the extensive tree‐limited grassy biomes of central and north‐western Madagascar are largely anthropogenic

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example.

Inactivation kinetics of selected pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria by aqueous ozone to validate minimum usage in purified water

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Ozone is often used as an antimicrobial agent at the final step in purified water processing. When used in purified bottled water manufacturing, residual ozone should not exceed 0.4 mg/L, per US-FDA regulations.

Default Effect in ESG Investment: When a Recommendation Goes a Long Way

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Individual investors display a positive attitude toward ESG investments but typically fail to act upon it. We report results from a preregistered online experiment testing a default option on 1050 US investors examining the mechanisms driving the effectiveness of default options in promoting ESG investments.

Do Governance Structures Drive Green Building Adoption? A Machine Learning Approach With Random Forests

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the determinants of firms' propensity to adopt green buildings in the Euro Stoxx 300 and the S&P 500 indices, during 2012–2023. Using random forest binary classifiers, we assess the relative importance of financial, sectoral, geographic, and climate governance predictors and uncover nonlinear relationships often overlooked ...

When Do Robots Go Green? Unveiling Mechanisms, Thresholds, and Spillovers of Industrial Robotics on Global Ecological Capacity

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between industrial robotics adoption and ecological capacity, measured by biocapacity, using panel data from 50 countries over the period 2000–2024. We investigate the transmission mechanisms, non‐linearities, spatial spillovers, and heterogeneity characterizing this relationship.

The ontogenetic allometry of body morphology and chemical composition in dairy goat wethers

open access: yesAnimal, 2018
We studied the ontogenetic growth of goat wethers (castrated male goats) of the Saanen and Swiss Alpine breeds based on a large range of intraspecific body mass (BM).

Board Gender Diversity and Environmental Credit Risk in Banking: A Global Study of Bank Governance

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between board gender diversity and environmental credit risk in the global banking sector. Using a panel dataset of 345 publicly listed banks from 75 countries over the period 2018–2022, we find that greater female representation on bank boards is significantly associated with lower environmental credit

Product Design Time Forecasting by Kernel-Based Regression with Gaussian Distribution Weights

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
There exist problems of small samples and heteroscedastic noise in design time forecasts. To solve them, a kernel-based regression with Gaussian distribution weights (GDW-KR) is proposed here.
