Variation in trabecular bone microarchitecture across rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) load‐bearing joints

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Aging of bone density (BV/TV) is regional: Forelimb [left] elements gain bone sporadically (orange) but hind limb elements [right] lose bone globally (blue). Abstract Globally, human population structure is quickly trending older, increasing the prevalence and systemic burden of age‐related skeletal disorders such as osteoporosis.

War as a Phenomenon of Inquiry in Management Studies

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract We argue that war as a phenomenon deserves more focused attention in management. First, we highlight why war is an important and relevant area of inquiry for management scholars. We then integrate scattered conversations on war in management studies into a framework structured around three building blocks – (a) the nature of war from an ...

Welfare consequences of the compound risks of index insurance

Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.
Abstract Index insurance is an attractive variant on the standard insurance contract that allows the determination of a loss event to be defined by one or more thresholds on an index that is positively correlated with actual losses. Index insurance also comes with a compound risk, basis risk.

Banking Development and the Economic Impact of Natural Disasters: From Short to Long Term Effects

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how financial development and local banking structures shape the economic resilience of communities in the aftermath of natural disasters. Focusing on Italian municipalities hit by earthquakes between 2008 and 2022, we explore the role of banking presence, particularly cooperative banks, in supporting recovery.

Unpacking Resilience in Public Administration: Insights From a Meta‐Narrative Review

Public Administration Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing environmental complexity and uncertainty have made organizational resilience a key concern in public administration. Yet its inherent ambiguity calls for a systematic examination of its conceptualizations, operationalizations, and applications. This meta‐narrative review synthesizes 49 studies, advancing the discourse by identifying

Wetland plant growth in recycled glass sand versus dredged river sand: evaluating a new resource for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sand made from recycled glass cullet could supplement limited dredged river sand (dredge) in coastal wetland restorations; however, its suitability for wetland plants is unknown. In two experiments, we compared the biomass of several wetland plants in recycled glass sand to growth in dredge.

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Field‐based evaluation of glass cullet as a supplementary sediment source for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
There is an ever‐increasing demand for sand to support projects like beach nourishment and dune restoration, but dredging and mining sand causes environmental damage. Demonstrating the environmental and ecological compatibility of crushed and ground glass known as cullet to support coastal restoration projects could simultaneously divert waste from ...

Sponges survive and develop infaunal snapping shrimp communities when transplanted immediately after clonal propagation: implications for restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Sponges historically dominated the heterotrophic biomass of Florida Bay's hard‐bottom habitat, providing crucial ecosystem services including shelter for soniferous shrimp that contribute to the marine soundscape. The loss of the sponge communities has inspired restoration efforts using in‐water nurseries for vegetative ...
