Inefficient Frontiers: Industry‐Specific Anomalies in Frontier Markets

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study we identify low‐risk anomalies affiliated with industry in frontier markets, offering valuable insights for fund managers and investors managing an internationally diversified portfolio. Utilising a two‐beta model—incorporating both market and industry betas—we reveal a distinct low‐beta anomaly with a monthly magnitude of 2.13 ...

Striking a Bargain: Narrative Identification of Wage Bargaining Shocks

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wage markup shocks, an important driver of business cycles, are hard to pin down. We quantify the importance of exogenous variation in wage bargaining power, one source of those shocks, from German minimum wage introduction episodes and strikes. This disciplines the impulse responses of unemployment and output, and sharpens inference for other

Toll‐Like Receptors in the Mechanism of Hexabromocyclododecane‐Induced Production of Pro‐Inflammatory Cytokines

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), a brominated flame retardant, has raised increasing health concerns due to its bioaccumulation in human tissues and its ability to induce proinflammatory cytokines. Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), and tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) are major mediators of inflammation, and their chronic elevation ...

The Formation of Islamic REIT Prices in Malaysia: Analyses of Linkages and Transmissions

Journal of Corporate Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the linkages and transmissions of five Islamic‐real estate investment trusts (I‐REITs) listed on the Kuala Lumpur stock exchange in Malaysia. In general, the five I‐REITs do not co‐move and are not linked. When the price linkage of each I‐REIT is analyzed, however, two of them, KLCC and AME, co‐move.

Removal of pharmaceuticals from municipal wastewater using a powdered activated carbon‐supplemented moving bed membrane bioreactor

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The new European Union Wastewater Directive 2024/3019 requires upgrading sewage treatment plants to achieve 80% removal of micropollutants. This study aimed to compare different Powdered Activated Carbon dosing strategies within a hybrid Moving Bed‐Membrane Bioreactor (PAC‐MB‐MBR) system, to evaluate its performance and to study the

Looking at Soil as It Is: Evolution of Microscopic Soil Characterization From Kubiëna to Artificial Intelligence

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
We provide a historic overview of microscopic soil structure characterization from its founding father, Walter Kubiëna, to several technical revolutions like automation, digitalization, and artificial intelligence. In addition to technical advancements, we explore how concepts and research questions have evolved in time.

Perspectives of High‐Resolution Mass Spectrometry in Soil Science

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil biogeochemical research requires specific, sensitive, and accurate methods to identify and quantify organic molecules in order to trace biochemical processes and assess element cycling in complex, heterogenous systems. High‐resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) has evolved into a transformative tool for unraveling the complex chemical ...
