Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between industrial robotics adoption and ecological capacity, measured by biocapacity, using panel data from 50 countries over the period 2000–2024. We investigate the transmission mechanisms, non‐linearities, spatial spillovers, and heterogeneity characterizing this relationship.

Potential of Precision Livestock Farming in small ruminant farming systems
, 2019 The benefit of precision livestock farming (PLF) is well recognised in the more intensive livestock sectors, such as dairy, pig and poultry. However, PLF has not been applied as widely in species where animals are considered to have a lower individual value or with less economic interest, as is the case in small ruminants (SR), or in extensive ...
