Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

On a Nonlinear Hyperbolic–Elliptic System Modeling Chemotaxis

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, we study a hyperbolic–elliptic system with L1-initial data, which arises as a mathematical model for chemotaxis. In particular, after introducing the notion of entropy solutions in this setting, we prove results concerning the existence of

Hybird Central Solvers for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The hyperbolic conservation laws model the phenomena of nonlinear waves including discontinuities. The coupled nonlinear equations representing such conservation laws may lead to discontinuous solutions even for smooth initial data.

A modified structured central scheme for 2D hyperbolic conservation laws

open access: yes, 1998
We present a new central scheme for approximating solutions of two-dimensional systems of hyperbolic conservation laws. This method is based on a modification of the staggered grid proposed in [5] which prevents the crossings of discontinuities in the ...

Bridging Global Sustainability Objectives With Corporate Reporting Standards: Sustainable Development Goals Meet European Sustainability Reporting Standards

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the complexity of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), aligning corporate sustainability with them can be challenging. Drawing on systems thinking, this study examines how the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) align with the SDGs and bridge macro‐level global goals with firm‐level metrics.

Toward SDG 13: A Machine Learning‐Based Assessment of Financial Freedom, Investment Freedom, and Environmental Sustainability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies in the context of the finance‐environment nexus mainly rely on quantitative indicators to provide information on activity or depth of the financial system, ignoring how institutional openness and the degree of regulatory autonomy within the financial market shape environmental outcomes that are directly relevant to Sustainable
