Demographic buffering in natural populations: A multi‐level perspective
We introduce a multi‐level framework that unites stochastic elasticities with nonlinear selection to test demographic buffering. Applying it across mammals reveals a key insight: ecological robustness to variability often decouples from evolutionary constraint, reshaping how we understand resilience under environmental stochasticity.

Effects of temperature and browning on the functional response of a freshwater top predator
This study explores for the first time how temperature and browning affect the functional response of a freshwater piscivore, the northern pike. The authors find surprisingly weak effects of browning, challenging visual foraging theory. Pike displayed a rare dome‐shaped functional response in cold clear water, potentially driven by seasonal changes in ...

The Impact of Credit and Training on Farmers Efficiency: A Semi‐Parametric Meta‐Frontier Analysis
ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in developing countries face several constraints, which affect their productivity. To reduce these constraints and enhance productivity, government and non‐governmental agencies implement programmes that provide credit and training to farmers.

ABSTRACT Biased recommendations arise naturally in markets with heterogeneous consumers. We study a model in which a monopolist offers an experience good to a population of consumers with heterogeneous tastes and makes personalized purchase recommendations.

Why Is Exclusivity in Broadcasting Rights Prevalent and Why Does Simple Regulation Fail?
ABSTRACT Pay‐TV firms compete both downstream to attract viewers and upstream to acquire broadcasting rights. Because profits inherited from downstream competition satisfy a convexity property, allocating rights to the dominant firm maximizes the industry profit.
