Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Firms are increasingly looking into carbon dioxide removal (CDR), a set of options to take past emissions of greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere. Often two basic categories of CDR are distinguished: nature‐based solutions, such as planting trees or restoring wetlands, and technology‐based solutions, such as various forms of carbon capture ...

PRIOR REGULATION AND POST LIABILITY AS COMPLEMENTS: AN APPLICATION TO PRESCRIBED BURNING LAW IN THE UNITED STATES [PDF]
Prescribed burning is increasingly being recognized as a useful land management and conservation tool, but with it comes the risk of fire and smoke damage to the property of others.

Ecology and Society, 2014 Ecologists recognize that fire and herbivory are essential to maintaining habitat quality in grassland ecosystems. Prescribed fire and grazing are typically used on public reserves to increase biodiversity, improve grassland productivity, and control ...

Selective Non‐Catalytic Reduction of NOx in the Exhaust Gas of Small Wood Gasification Boilers
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.Kinetic studies of the SNCR reaction were conducted to investigate NOx reduction in the exhaust gas of small‐scale wood gasification boilers. Both the experimental results and the derived global kinetic model indicate that SNCR can achieve a significant reduction in NOx emissions under typical operating conditions. ABSTRACT The gas‐phase reaction of NO

The Drivers of Effectiveness of Prescribed Fire Treatment [PDF]
Forest Science, 2012 Prescribed burning for fuel reduction is a major strategy for reducing the risk from unplanned fire. Although there are theoretical studies suggesting that prescribed fire has a strong negative influence on the subsequent area of unplanned fire (so-called leverage), many empirical studies find a more modest influence.

Prescribed Fire in Industrial Pine Plantations [PDF]
, 1990 Industrial plantations of non-indigenous tree species (exotics) can be defined as even-aged stands established outside of their natural habitat. These plantations play a vital economic role in the developing countries of the tropics and subtropics. The ecological benefits of afforestation, however, go far beyond local and regional considerations: the ...

From Custom to Court: The Evolution of Mediation in European Legal Systems
Conflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article traces how European mediation has repeatedly rebalanced three variables—(1) the source of mediator authority, (2) the degree of institutionalization, and (3) the operative meaning of voluntariness—from antiquity to the present. Using three periods—Proto‐Mediation (c. 500 BCE–c. 1750), Classical Mediation (c.

Germination responses of a dry sclerophyll forest soil-stored seedbank to fire related cues [PDF]
, 2013 Fire is an integral component of many ecosystems worldwide. Many plant species require fire-related cues, primarily heat and smoke, to trigger germination. Despite the importance of this process, the responses of many Australian species to these cues are

EcospherePrescribed fire has been increasingly promoted to reduce wildfire risk and restore fire‐adapted ecosystems. Yet, the complexities of forest ecosystem dynamics in response to disturbances, climate change, and drought stress, combined with myriad social ...

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Corporations increasingly use Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reports to articulate their commitments, priorities, and performance in sustainability governance. This study examines how Korean firms have configured and reconfigured their sustainability discourses across industries and time using 634 sustainability reports (2014–2024)
