ABSTRACT Establishing voluntary labor standards depends on securing the voluntary engagement of multiple actors with potentially diverging interests. This paper examines the legitimation politics and processes surrounding attempts to develop local labor standards through an empirical study of local employment charters in England.

Indicator systems - resource use in organic systems [PDF]
A balanced use of resources within organic farming systems is required to maintain sustainable systems. Hence, it is essential to have tools that can assess the use of resources within the farming system and their impact on the environment.

ABSTRACT Climate change‐driven heat and drought stresses during reproductive stages significantly threaten wheat productivity. To investigate the genetic and physiological basis of combined heat–drought (HD) tolerance, we evaluated 345 wheat genotypes under three environments of HD stresses, non‐stress glasshouse conditions and a late‐sowing field ...

The Mental Health of the Young in Eastern Europe and Central Asia
ABSTRACT We report on the wellbeing of the young in twenty‐eight countries located in Eastern Europe and Central Asia including fifteen post‐Soviet countries. We find no evidence of the decline in the mental health of the young relative to older people, which characterizes Western Europe and English‐speaking advanced economies. The mental health of the

Assessment of Ejector-Expansion Heat Pump Systems with Low GWP Refrigerants for Electric Vehicles
This study addresses the critical challenge of developing efficient thermal management systems for electric vehicles by proposing and evaluating two novel ejector-expansion heat pump configurations: single-evaporator (SEEHP) and dual-evaporator (DEEHP ...

Abstract This mixed‐methods study examines the experience of the impostor phenomenon in a racially/ethnically and sexually diverse sample of undergraduates in majors related to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Guided by an intersectionality framework, we examined whether experiences of the impostor phenomenon differ at the ...

Evaluating Global Warming Potentials as Historical Temperature Proxies: an application of ACC2 Inverse Calculation [PDF]
Global Warming Potentials (GWPs) are evaluated as proxies of the historical temperature by applying them to convert historical CH4 and N2O emissions to equivalent CO2 emissions.
