Organizational Structure Dimensions and Their Impact on JVs and Acquisitions
Strategic Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Managers pursuing transformational growth through inorganic routes typically rely on joint ventures and acquisitions, basing their choices on factors such as target availability, risk propensity, and desired control over operations. This paper theorizes that managers can increase the likelihood of success in such transformations by aligning ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Soil erosion is a major environmental challenge in karst regions of Southwest China, where thin soils and high bedrock exposure accelerate land degradation. This study modified the RUSLE model by incorporating bedrock exposure rate to improve erosion simulation in Guizhou Province from 2000 to 2024.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Chemical compliance remains the usual endpoint for closing contaminated‐soil remediation projects, although it does not establish recovery of soil function or the durability of the post‐treatment state. This critical review examines when microbiological evidence can contribute to ecological closure decisions.

Mass Spectrometry Insights Into Post‐Translational Modifications in Extracellular Vesicles
Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐enclosed structures secreted by virtually all living cells, serving as essential mediators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological processes. There is growing interest in their potential applications as biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and drug delivery systems, which ...

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Portulaca (Portulacaceae) is a cosmopolitan genus with centers of diversity in Africa and South America. In Brazil, 22 species are recognized, most occurring in xerophytic environments of the Cerrado, particularly in Campos Rupestres. These rocky montane habitats, especially in northern Minas Gerais state, remain undercollected despite their high ...
