Hurricane‐induced risk contagion in commercial real estate: Evidence from Hurricane Sandy
Abstract This study examines how hurricane‐induced destruction affects the prices of nearby undamaged commercial real estate properties, using Hurricane Sandy as a natural experiment. Using Real Capital Analytics transaction records spatially merged with Federal Emergency Management Agency building‐level damage data, we empirically employ a difference ...

Seasonal Habitat Selection by a Threatened Ungulate in an Industrializing Boreal Landscape
Understanding habitat selection by Threatened wood bison in landscapes characterized by anthropogenic disturbance is important for conservation planning. During summer and winter, bison selected for linear (e.g., roads, seismic lines, pipelines) and polygonal (e.g., well sites) disturbances, unless there were high densities of linear features.

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for Bagan (Myanmar)
AbstractFollowing the 2016 Chauk earthquake in Bagan (Myanmar), numerous old pagodas and temples suffered severe damage. This research presents a study on the seismic hazard analysis of the Bagan city in Myanmar, based on a probabilistic framework focussing on analysing 43 temples with their associated local soil information.

Electoral responses to economic crises
Abstract How do voters respond to economic crises: Do they turn against the incumbent, reward a certain political camp, polarize to the extremes, or perhaps continue to vote much like before? Analyzing extensive data on electorates, parties, and individuals in 24 countries for over half a century, we document a systematic pattern whereby economic ...

Dragonfly functional connectivity responses are dynamic relative to drought
During drought, dragonfly species richness decreases. Yet, dragonfly assemblages show a higher propensity for dispersal during drought. Dispersal pathways vary among the wet and dry periods, and relative to temporal changes in the landscape. While some dragonfly species can traverse plantation compartments, conservation corridors facilitate functional ...

PROBABILISTIC SEISMIC HAZARD ANALYSIS OF SOUTHWESTERN NIGERIA
For about ten decades, the seismic record of Nigeria has shown the occurrence of several magnitudes of earthquakes. This is contrary to the belief of some people in time past that Nigeria is aseismic. In number and in size, most of the witnessed earthquakes in Nigeria are found to occur in her South-Western region.

Incorporating burn probability into spatial prioritization of woodland caribou habitat restoration
Abstract Introduction Habitat disturbance is a major driver of population declines of woodland caribou in Canada. Habitat restoration is a critical component of a successful, long‐term approach to caribou recovery; however, with limited resources, it is important to target areas where restoration efforts will provide maximum benefits to caribou.

A review on probabilistic seismic hazard analysis of Nepal
Different research papers on Nepal's probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) have been reviewed to compare the methodology used and the results obtained. Multiple types of research related to PSHA have been performed so far in Nepal, each using different source models.

Wavelet‐Based Hurst Exponent Estimation
The review explores how wavelet‐based methods for estimating the Hurst parameters have developed from their theoretical roots to real‐world applications in fields like biology, engineering, and telecommunications. The review aims to highlight key techniques, compare their strengths and limitations, and point out challenges that still need to be ...
