Future Soil Erosion Under Combined CMIP6 Climate Projections and Land Use/Land Cover Change: A RUSLE‐Based Assessment of the Kampe Omi Dam Basin in Nigeria

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major environmental challenge in Nigeria, driven by the combined effects of climate variability and land use/land cover (LULC) changes. Understanding future dynamics is essential for effective soil conservation planning.

Do digital platforms create entrepreneurial opportunities? Evidence from marginal areas

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This article enters the debate on the effects of digital platforms on entrepreneurial opportunities by estimating whether the entry of a home‐sharing platform shapes entrepreneurial decisions in marginal areas. We add a novel perspective to the literature, as we contend that when economic conditions are unfavorable, digital ...

Estimating European volatile organic compound emissions using satellite observations of formaldehyde from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Emission of non-methane Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) to the atmosphere stems from biogenic and human activities, and their estimation is difficult because of the many and not fully understood processes involved.

Scaling temperature‐dependent dispersal rates to metacommunity dynamics: An experimental test

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Changes in community structure under shifting thermal regimes depend on how both local population dynamics and regional dispersal respond to temperature. Processes underlying dispersal, such as movement speed and demographic density dependence, are constrained by ...

Reporting Control Deficiencies in Repeat Internal Audit Engagements*

open access: yesAccounting Perspectives, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 7-20, March 2025.
ABSTRACT This study examines the reporting of control deficiencies in repeat internal audit engagements. Experienced internal auditors were presented with a hypothetical case in which they were asked about the likelihood of reporting an internal control deficiency discovered last year but which was, “through an oversight,” not reported to company ...
