Do More Open Economies Export Less Diversely in Brazilian Agribusiness?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper asks whether municipalities with a larger export‐to‐revenue ratio display a more concentrated bundle of exported goods in Brazilian agribusiness. Recent advances in export imputation for Brazilian municipalities allow for an analysis of the concentration profile of each municipality and its association with export openness.

Seasonal variation in wind speed and oceanic salt spray favors delayed reproduction in coastal yellow monkeyflowers

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The optimal timing of reproduction depends on the relative risk and benefit of continued growth. These risks and benefits depend on the local environment, which varies seasonally. While temperature and water availability are well‐studied selective agents on reproductive timing, less is known about other seasonally variable factors ...

Foliar salt spray exclusion and tissue tolerance underlie local adaptation to oceanic salt spray

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Surviving the effects of oceanic salt spray is critical for plants in coastal ecosystems, yet the mechanisms of coastal plant resilience to salt spray are not well understood. We investigated mechanisms of salt spray adaptation by comparing five latitudinal pairs of yellow monkeyflower accessions locally adapted to coastal and inland ...

Identifying and analyzing logistics land use:

REGION
In Germany, the identification of logistics land is rarely done, among other things due to the anonymization of employment and building data. The paper at hand gives an overview of data sources used for the identification of spatial patterns of ...

Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Heterogeneity and Controlling Mechanisms of Soil Organic Carbon Stocks Across Erosion Zones in China Under Future Climate Scenarios

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil organic carbon (SOC), as a key indicator of global carbon cycling and climate change response, plays a critical role in regional ecological security and agricultural sustainability. This study employs three machine learning models including the LightGBM, XGBoost, and random forest to simulate the spatial distribution of topsoil SOC stocks

Ecological Network Characteristics of Cultivated Land Carbon Flows in Major Grain‐Producing Regions: Case Study of Jingzhou City, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land‐use changes related to cultivated land significantly affect the regional carbon budget in major grain‐producing regions, yet the ecological network characteristics of cultivated land carbon flows remain insufficiently understood. This study developed an integrated framework that combined ecological network analysis with spatial analysis ...

Determining the Probability of Unproductive Manipulations in Inland Intermodal Terminal Operations

Promet - Traffic&Transportation, 2023
The paper concerns the method of determining the probability of unproductive manipulations during operations, maintenance or repairs on an inland intermodal terminal. The method is mathematically based on the semi-Markov process. The developed method enables revision of unproductive manipulation frequency and duration.
