Scientists’ warning on the global destruction of rock outcrop ecosystems

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rock outcrops are geological formations that harbor a highly specialized biota adapted to harsh environmental conditions that differ from their surrounding landscapes. They are globally distributed, especially in old, highly weathered landscapes, and can function as habitat islands containing high levels of endemism and distinct evolutionary ...

Towards a Net Zero-Emission Electricity Generation System by Optimizing Renewable Energy Sources and Nuclear Power Plant

Energies
Greenhouse gas emissions, including CO2 emissions, are an issue in the energy sector that must be addressed urgently. The energy sector, including electricity, has been given a global aim of net zero emissions (NZE). This article examines three scenarios

The Bumpy Road From a Well‐Paid Earmarked Parental Leave to Engaged Fatherhood: Externally Driven Reform in a Persistently Gendered Culture

Gender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Well‐paid, nontransferable parental leave for fathers is intended to promote engaged fatherhood and, in turn, gender equality at work and in the household. Yet the extent to which such entitlements achieve these outcomes depends on the cultural and institutional context in which they are introduced.

Climate Change, Demand Uncertainty, and Firms' Investments: Evidence from Planned Power Plants

The Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does demand uncertainty affect firms' investment decisions? We examine this question in the context of electricity‐producing firms' planned investments in new power plants. We measure uncertainty about future electricity demand using plausibly exogenous variation in temperature projections across scientific climate models. The results show

How Well Can Words Capture Facial Appearance? A Cross‐Linguistic Exploration

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract When describing faces, people often struggle with verbalizing facial features. Free descriptions seem to focus predominantly on aspects of faces that are inferred, for example, psychological traits, age, attractiveness, and so on, whereas facial features themselves are often described in a limited and imprecise fashion.

Fetal glucose availability: a key regulator of the metabolic, hormonal and contractility profiles of the fetal sheep heart

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend To investigate the role of glucose availability in fetal left ventricle (LV) development, this study assessed whether maternal late gestation undernutrition (LGUN; 50% of Control diet) induced alterations in the contractility, metabolic, and hormonal profile can be ameliorated in LGUN fetuses receiving glucose infusion (LGUN+G ...
