PM2.5 Chemical Composition and Geographic Origin of Air Masses in Mabopane, South Africa

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Air pollution is a major global threat to health. The study aimed to analyze the chemical composition of PM2.5 in Mabopane, South Africa, and to identify the contribution of transported particulate pollution sources using backward air transport cluster analysis.

Fixed‐Time Zeroing Neural Dynamics for Adaptive Coordination of Multi‐Agent Systems

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents an adaptive multi‐agent coordination (AMAC) strategy suitable for complex scenarios, which only requires information exchange between neighbouring robots. Unlike traditional multi‐agent coordination methods that are solved by neural dynamics, the proposed strategy displays greater flexibility, adaptability and scalability ...

Financial Climate‐Risk Measurement, Impact Funds, and Green Transitions

Journal of Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regulators are contemplating or mandating precise measurement of financial climate‐risk exposure to promote sustainable investments. We show that such mandates can be counterproductive in the presence of social funds that catalyze change by subsidizing the adoption of cleaner production technologies.

The Political Economy of Patent Buyouts

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incentivizing innovation through buyouts may alleviate the social costs associated with patent power, but the political economy and feasibility of this potentially important financing mechanism have been understudied. We study an international setting of countries with different innovation and financing capabilities, and where financing ...
