A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Environmental Performance Drivers: A Political Cost Approach

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We contribute to the business strategy and the environment literature by examining the effect of political cost pressures on corporate environmental performance in the context of United Kingdom‐listed firms. Drawing on a sample of non‐financial firms from the FTSE All‐Share Index over a period of 10 years (2013–2022), we construct novel ...
