US Consumer Appetite for Climate Claims on Beef Products: Does Country‐of‐Origin Matter?

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beef cattle producers have been receiving pressure to reduce methane emissions from production. Beef products with varying climate claims have recently been introduced to the retail sector, stemming from various countries‐of‐origin. Using data from a US consumer survey, we find a subset of US consumers is willing to pay a premium for Lower ...

STATE‐LED RURALIZATION AND ITS URBAN ENTANGLEMENTS: Agribusiness Land Transfers in Rural China

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract As urbanization takes on forms and spaces beyond the typical city, urban theorists have questioned how the field can comprehend the rural. Drawing on recent theories in rural geography, I propose the concept of ‘state‐led ruralization’, which I define as state agencies’ deliberate effort to reshape rural social space by regulating the ...

Heterogeneous Spillover Effects: How FDI in Resources Extraction, Manufacturing, and Services Affect Sectoral Carbon Emissions in the MENA Region

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The MENA region faces a critical challenge: balancing economic growth spurred by foreign direct investment (FDI) with environmental sustainability. While FDI can bring technological advancements and capital, concerns exist about its potential to exacerbate environmental degradation, particularly carbon emissions.

UV‐Induced Fluorescence in the Balance: Mate Choice and Predation Risk in the Female Ornamented Jumping Spiders

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the potential adaptive advantages of female‐specific UV‐induced fluorescence in male mate‐choice and predation risk, as fitness costs, using two species of ornate jumping spiders Phintella vittata and Ph. bifurcilinea. Our findings provide empirical evidence of a trade‐off: While fluorescence enhances male mate preference, it ...

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Relaxation approximations and bounded variation estimates for some partial differential equations

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2002
In this paper, we introduce a new technique for studying solutions of bounded variation for some conservation laws of first order partial differential equations and for some degenerate parabolic equations in multi-dimensional space.

Unpacking China's Digital Ascent in the Global South: The Case of Huawei in North Africa

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite frequent concerns in Western policy and media circles about the risks of using Chinese telecommunications suppliers, firms like Huawei have encountered little resistance from governments or citizens in the Global South. Empirical research explaining this acceptance remains limited.

Between Sustainable Development, Financialisation and Sovereign Debt Crisis: The Case of Blue Finance as Yet Another Iteration of the Washington Consensus

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As far as international economic law (IEL) is concerned, the ‘Washington Consensus’ generally refers to the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF)'s development finance policies and tools. It covers their application to their clients and borrowers with the support of Western governments. This acceptation is of particular interest

A new approach to the theory of heat conduction with finite wave speeds

open access: yesLe Matematiche, 1991
Relations between the physical models describing the heat conduction in solids and a phenomenological model leading to quasi-linear hyperbolic equations and systems of conservation laws are presented.
