High-frequency cyclicity in the Mediterranean Messinian evaporites: evidence for solar-lunar climate forcing [PDF]

, 2012
The deposition of varved sedimentary sequences is usually controlled by climate conditions. The study of two Late Miocene evaporite successions (one halite and the other gypsum) consisting of annual varves has been carried out to reconstruct the ...

Too Hot to Profit? Climatic Stress and Farm‐Level Performance in Italian Viticulture

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the economic impact of long‐run climatic conditions on Italian wine farms by applying a Ricardian framework to 1431 firms from the 2022 RICA‐FADN survey. We combine farm‐level revenues with viticulture‐specific agroclimatic indicators to assess how climate stress shapes profitability across 77 Italian NUTS3 provinces ...

Revisited heat budget and probability distributions of turbulent heat fluxes in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

Ocean Science
Understanding the surface heat budget of the Mediterranean Sea is essential for assessing its role in regional climate and ocean circulation. Under the steady-state heat budget closure hypothesis, the Mediterranean should exhibit a net surface heat loss ...

Strategic Innovation for Sustainability: A Conceptual Model Linking Digitalization, Social Dynamics, and Climate Change Mitigation

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study addresses a significant research gap in the literature by systematically reviewing and synthesizing the interplay between social dynamics, environmental changes, and organizational innovation. Although prior research has explored these dimensions in isolation, the integrative framework remains lacking.
