The contribution of leaf sulfur content to the leaf economics spectrum explained by plant adaptive strategies [PDF]

, 2020
Abstract Sulfur is an essential macronutrient for plant metabolism. Terrestrial ecosystems have faced extensive anthropogenic sulfur depositions during the 20 th century, but currently decreasing trend of sulfur emissions suggest that it could become limiting, although its ...

Variation in leaf economics spectrum between plant functional types and the coordination with vein density in a subtropical urban forest of Eastern China

Annals of Forest Science
Key message Evergreen and deciduous species in a subtropical urban forest of Eastern China exhibit pronounced differences in leaf traits, with evergreens species showing lower photosynthetic rate on a leaf mass basis and leaf nutrient contents, but ...

Innovating for Net‐Zero: Collaborative and Digital Decarbonisation Strategies in Sunset Industries' Global Value Chains

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global net‐zero ambitions require transformative strategies to decarbonise carbon‐intensive global value chains (GVCs). This study examines how multinational enterprises (MNEs) in sunset industries integrate carbon capture technologies (CCT) with operational and supply chain dynamics (OSCD) to advance decarbonisation.

Corporate Environmental Responsibility and Cost of Equity Capital: A Meta‐Analytical Review

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research on the relationship between corporate environmental responsibility (CER) and cost of equity capital (COEC), empirical evidence remains inconsistent. This study addresses these inconsistencies through a comprehensive meta‐analysis of 1139 effect sizes from 75 studies.

Non-structural carbohydrate concentrations in tree organs vary across biomes and leaf habits, but are independent of the fast-slow plant economic spectrum

Frontiers in Plant Science
Carbohydrate reserves play a vital role in plant survival during periods of negative carbon balance. Under a carbon-limited scenario, we expect a trade-offs between carbon allocation to growth, reserves, and defense. A resulting hypothesis is that carbon

The Grey Zone of Stakeholder Engagement: Misalignment as a Manifestation of Greyness in Stakeholder Collaboration

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study identifies and conceptualises the grey zone of stakeholder engagement and explores how it manifests in a collaborative context related to the promotion of a circular economy. While prior research on stakeholder engagement has highlighted the positive, value‐creating bright side or the harmful dark side of stakeholder engagement, we ...

Community leaf dry matter content predicts plant production in simple and diverse grassland

Ecosphere, 2022
Plant growth correlates with values of collinear (covarying) traits from the leaf economics spectrum. Environmental variation and differences in community composition may alter contributions of these traits to plant production and thereby limit the ...

The Strategic Role of Sustainability Certifications: A Multi‐Theoretical Framework and Comparative Analysis in the Global Wine Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability certifications are increasingly embedded in the governance and competitiveness of the wine sector, yet their strategic role remains under‐theorised. This study conceptualises certifications as multidimensional strategic mechanisms and conducts a comparative analysis of 50 schemes used in the global wine industry.
