The Role of Certifications in Improving Household Food Security Among Peruvian Farmers

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Achieving global food security requires sustainable transformations in agri‐food systems. Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) such as Organic and Fairtrade aim to internalize certain social and environmental costs while promoting more equitable value distribution, improved market access, and sustainable production practices.

The Greening of Industry: Navigating the Nexus of Environmental Policies and Regulations, and Emission Abatement Strategies

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the prevailing discourses on the importance of environmental policy and regulation on emission control, related theoretical and empirical developments are lacking. Using institutional theory, we propose that environmental policy and regulation contribute to emission control by integrating environmental impact exposure into decision ...

Hyperconcentrated flows shape bedrock channels

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Geomorphological evidence of incised bedrock channels is widespread in all mountain landscapes worldwide. However, the processes controlling incision and gorge formation in bedrock have not directly been observed in an actualistic way.

Transport properties of soil particles in Sakiyamawan–Amitoriwan nature conservation area, Iriomote Island, Japan

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2017
The actual states of soil particle transport in and exchange between the Sakiyama and Amitori bays, Iriomote Island, Japan, were investigated using atmosphere–ocean–river observations and numerical simulations.

Enhancing event stratigraphic correlations in the ultra‐deep Japan Trench using XRF‐CS cluster‐based chemostratigraphy

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Cluster‐based chemostratigraphy using XRF‐CS enables high‐resolution correlation of event deposits across contrasting depositional settings in the Japan Trench. This approach reveals previously unrecognised events and compositional heterogeneity, offering new insights into sediment provenance and earthquake‐triggered deposition, with implications for ...

Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Massive permafrost rock slide under a warming polythermal glacier deciphered through mechanical modeling (Bliggspitze, Austria) [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Recent studies have brought to light large amounts of evidence for enhanced rock slope failure from degrading permafrost rock walls. These failures have previously been thought to be subaerial and triggered by thermal heat propagation from rising air ...
