Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania
Economic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 568-590, April 2025.Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To study variables that may trigger the dispersion of the currently expanding European catfish in its native distribution limits, 42 individuals were captured from Upper Lake Constance (lentic) and 42 from two streaming tributaries (lotic), fitted with pressure and temperature loggers, and released at the site of capture (control: lotic or ...

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Knowing the relationship between catch per unit effort (CPUE) and population density is crucial for the management of recreational fisheries. We conducted standardized angling for pike in 16 lakes (3.4–22.1 ha) to test whether lure type, color, and pike density affect CPUE and the size of captured fish.

Gerodontology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to explore the thoughts and feelings of stroke patients and their carers (family/guardians) about oral care during hospitalisation, and (in turn) inform future research and service development. Background Stroke is a leading cause of adult disability and associated physical and cognitive impairments can compromise ...

Impact of River Morphology on River–Groundwater Exchange in Braided River Systems
Groundwater, EarlyView.Abstract Braided river systems are an important source for groundwater recharge, but their complex morphology makes river–groundwater exchange fluxes difficult to estimate. Their river channel morphology changes frequently after floods, which has effects on recharge rates that have rarely been studied in the past.

Ibis, EarlyView.Human‐induced environmental change is reshaping plant communities, requiring native animals to adapt their foraging behaviour to track and exploit novel food resources. Trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) introduced for plantation forestry outside of their native ranges often become naturalized.

Ibis, EarlyView.Parental care strategies have evolved to ensure optimal offspring rearing under varying environmental conditions. Nest attendance is a fundamental behaviour providing protection against predators and adverse weather, but it is traded against time spent foraging.
