Renewable Resource Curse Hypothesis: Could Renewable Resources Foster Sustainable Development?
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explores whether the resource curse hypothesis applies to renewable energy by introducing a novel metric of renewable resource rent. Using a panel dataset of 46 countries (2010–2022), we define renewable rent as the product of electricity generation and the gap between industrial electricity price and levelized cost (LCOE).

Effect of In-Shoe Foot Orthosis Contours on Heel Pain Due to Calcaneal Spurs
Applied Sciences, 2019 The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of contouring the shoe insole on calcaneal pressure and heel pain in calcaneal spur patients. Calcaneal pressure was measured using three force sensors from 13 patients including three males and 10

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.
