The Structure and Evolution of Molecular Clouds: from Clumps to Cores to the IMF
, 1999 We review the progress that has been made in observing and analyzing molecular cloud structure in recent years. Structures are self-similar over a wide range of scales with similar power law indices independent of the star forming nature of a cloud. Comparison of structures at parsec-scale resolution in a star forming and non-star forming cloud show ...

Carbon Footprint of Bank Loans: Opportunities and Risk Implications in the Banking Industry
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines whether the carbon footprint of bank loan portfolios influences bank stability, profitability and cost efficiency and whether regulatory quality moderates these relationships. Using a balanced panel of 33 countries from 2005 to 2018, the analysis combines banking‐sector indicators from the World Bank Global Financial ...

Decarbonization in Financial Turbulent Times: Global Value Chains and Regulatory Framework
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how participation in global value chains (GVCs) influences carbon emissions amid financial turbulence, with attention to cross‐country heterogeneity and distributional dynamics. Although existing research has explored trade–environment linkages, limited attention has been given to how GVC integration interacts with ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how environmental regulations can drive technological change, drawing on the innovation systems perspective and the strong Porter hypothesis (SPH). The SPH suggests that well‐designed stringent regulations can foster innovation and enhance firm competitiveness, performance, and survival, yet prior research remains largely ...
