Interactions between coarse sediment transfer, channel change, river engineering and flood risk in an upland gravel-bed river [PDF]
, 2008 Coarse sediment transfer in upland gravel-bed river systems is often neglected in the design and operation of river management schemes. Yet, it is increasingly attributed to problems within upland environments including bank erosion and enhanced flood ...

Bank Failure Mechanism of Peatland Meandering Rivers in the Zoige Basin
工程科学与技术, 2017 :Under the action of lateral scour by near bank flow,bank failure of concave bank of meandering river is the direct drive of bend lateral migration.Field surveys in 2011—2016 suggested that numerous meandering rivers,called peatland meandering river,had ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Industrial clusters are central to the circular economy transition, yet how they develop into eco‐clusters and the paradoxical tensions this transformation fuels remain underexplored. Drawing on 48 in‐depth interviews and secondary data from a Turkish textile‐recycling cluster, we develop an empirically grounded model of eco‐cluster transition

River meander morphometrics [PDF]
, 2017 A procedure for sampling and measuring meander geometry is presented. The sampling procedure, developed using a mathematically defined meander ensemble with known statistical properties, minimizes operator bias and sampling noise inherent in the digital data collection process.

When Nature Counts: Corporate Biodiversity Attention and Access to Bank Finance
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether corporate attention to biodiversity influences firms' access to bank loans, an overlooked question in the emerging biodiversity–finance literature. Using a novel, text‐based measure constructed from 446 biodiversity‐related keywords and applied to Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2000 to 2023, we show that ...

Biodiversity Strategies in Action—Empirical Evidence From the Food Value Chain
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT There is an increasing need for better understanding of firm activities that contribute to biodiversity preservation. Panwar, Ober, and Pinkse offer a valuable typology of corporate biodiversity protection strategies based on temporal and spatial dimensions, namely, the preloss (proactive) strategies of conservation and compensation, and the ...
