Tastes for Luxury: How Dietary Aspirations Underpin Food Regimes

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The human penchant for luxury foods has spurred mass migration, dietary overhaul and environmental change in many places around the world. Desires for foods like sugar, bread, beef and packaged foods were also central to the success of the British Empire and were a key part of American hegemony in the 20th century, and prestigious foods ...

Capturing Inter and Intra Sectoral Productivity Spillovers in Industrial Filière: A System of Dynamic Spatial Panel Data Models

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the relevance of spatial and sectoral interactions in shaping the productivity performance of economic systems and filières, in this study, we suggest addressing both aspects by estimating a system of simultaneous dynamic spatial panel data models.

On the Relative Contributions of National and Regional Institutions to Economic Development

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Institutional quality is recognized as a fundamental driver of long‐run growth (Acemoglu et al. 2005) and it has been widely studied at both country and regional levels in the economic growth literature. Nevertheless, the literature is scant on the question of how this relationship behaves when the hierarchical structure of regions and ...

Effect of the maternal sleep disturbances and obstructive sleep apnea on feto‐placental Doppler: A systematic review

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Literature evidenced an association of maternal obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with significant obstetric complications. Moreover, the OSA and its effect on feto‐placental circulation had not been extensively examined. Our objective is to explore the possible impact of OSA on the feto‐placental indices evaluated through the Doppler study.

Local Whittle estimation in time‐varying long memory series

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
The memory parameter is usually assumed to be constant in traditional long memory time series. We relax this restriction by considering the memory a time‐varying function that depends on a finite number of parameters. A time‐varying Local Whittle estimator of these parameters, and hence of the memory function, is proposed.

Assessing predation pressure of Vespa velutina on local fauna through DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the predation pressure exerted by the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina) on native insect populations in Mallorca, using DNA metabarcoding to analyze their diet. Results reveal a diverse prey spectrum, including key insect groups such as Apidae (bees), Calliphoridae (blowflies), and Vespidae (wasps), with no ...
