Current structure in the Rhine region of freshwater influence [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Observation with HF radar, ADCPs and conventional current meters in the Rhine ROFI system in the North Sea indicate that the dominant currents are due to tidal flow, with important contributions from winds and density-driven circulation.

Addressing the Attitude Behaviour Perception Gap—Multimethod Sustainable Tourist Behaviour Evaluation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantitative and perceptual studies have been used to define and model sustainable tourist behaviour in past years, but few studies have undertaken qualitative research of actual behaviour to delve deeper into understanding the different classifications of such behaviour. This research employed a three‐phase design, comprising a pretrip survey,

Do Corporate Strategies in Fintech and Green Finance Enhance ESG Performance? The Moderating Role of Government Policies

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the growing interest in ESG performance, limited research explores the mediating role of government policy in the relationship between Fintech, green finance and ESG outcomes. We address this gap by examining how Fintech and green finance influence ESG performance through government policies.

Do Eco‐Emotions and Climate Change Perceptions Influence Environmentally Conscious Decisions? Implications for Business Strategies

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing research on explicating travelers' decision‐making processes regarding greener travel options, there remains potential for exploring nuances of different factors and mechanisms that may encourage higher green travel. Grounded in the propositions of the push–pull–mooring framework, our study attempts to explicate whether eco ...

Feasibility Study for Development of New Stationkeeping System [PDF]

open access: yes한국해양공학회지, 2019
In this study, experiments with a floater using flapping foils were performed to develop a new station keeping system that can maintain its position in waves without mooring lines. The foils applied to this system generate thrust using wave energy.

Chain‐Level Business Model Patterns for the Green Logistics Transition

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability transitions in freight transport increasingly depend on coordinated changes across entire logistics networks, not just within individual firms. This study investigates how business‐model change unfolds across a multimodal European logistics chain engaged in reducing transport‐related emissions.
