Capacity and limitations of US wild meat donation programmes
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Historically, sharing of wild harvests to facilitate food security followed concepts of kin selection and reciprocal altruism. However, cultural shifts have reduced access to foods for some populations in modern times. Cultural altruism through sustainably harvested wild meat donation programmes (WDPs) can reduce food and nutritional ...

Nonlinear Analysis, 2020 In this paper, we investigated the problem of the finite-time boundedness and finitetime passivity for neural networks with time-varying delays. A triple, quadrable and five integral terms with the delay information are introduced in the new Lyapunov ...

Bank insolvency risk and aggregate Z-score measures: a caveat [PDF]
We demonstrate that a popular approach to constructing (weighted) mean-based aggregate bank insolvency risk measures is inherently biased; we also suggest an alternative approach that avoids this problem.insolvency risk, aggregate Z-score, Jensen's ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Attitudes and emotions shape how humans perceive and behave towards wildlife, making them a key component affecting human–wildlife coexistence. In addition to direct experience with wildlife, research shows that sociodemographic characteristics and locality can influence a person's relationship with wildlife through cultural norms, economic ...

On Jensen’s type inequalities via generalized majorization inequalities
Filomat, 2018 In this paper, we give generalizations of Jensen?s, Jensen-Steffensen?s and converse of Jensen?s inequalities by using generalized majorization inequalities. We also present Gr?ss and Ostrowski-type inequalities for the generalized inequalities.

Weaving for action: Transformative change in biodiversity monitoring
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract The Post‐2020 Kunming‐Montreal Biodiversity Framework aims to drive transformative change to halt biodiversity loss. To track progress toward its goals and targets, a dedicated monitoring framework has been established. The current biodiversity monitoring framework relies on a set of indicators developed through a unidirectional process of ...

Comparison Between Bayesian and Frequentist Tail Probability Estimates
, 2019 In this paper, we investigate the reasons that the Bayesian estimator of the tail probability is always higher than the frequentist estimator. Sufficient conditions for this phenomenon are established both by using Jensen's Inequality and by looking at ...
