Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Species distribution models (SDMs) are often used to understand changes to species' distributions and their habitats under different land‐use scenarios, enabling decision makers to prioritize areas for management efforts and balance environmental conservation with socio‐economic demands on the landscape.

Electoral responses to economic crises
American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.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 ...

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We consider the problem of sequential (online) estimation of a single change point in a piecewise linear regression model under a Gaussian setup. We demonstrate that certain CUSUM‐type statistics attain the minimax optimal rates for localizing the change point.

Home Safe Home: Safety Gains Through Telework During the Covid‐19 Pandemic
LABOUR, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper exploits exogenous shifts in work organisation during the Covid‐19 pandemic to study the implications of hybrid and remote work arrangements on occupational safety. Combining accident registers and household survey microdata from Hungary, we are able to address potential selection and reporting bias, and reliably identify the ...

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.As fragility and risk modeling techniques and computational capabilities evolve, complemented by moving toward more routine and systematic seismic risk assessment of all buildings and critical infrastructure, the authors pose a few critical questions to investigate how the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Seismic Hazard Models (NSHMs) can be used

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.What drives user perceptions and acceptance of earthquake early warning systems (EEWS) as an emerging technology? Do distinct types of transparency into EEWS affect users’ perceptions of the system's usefulness and desirability differently? To address these questions, we focus on Nepal, an earthquake‐prone country with no active public EEWS ...

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.As seismic design paradigms shift toward functional recovery, there is a need for efficient methods to achieve desired decision variables (DVs), such as probability of replacement, repair cost, and downtime of the building, for seismically isolated buildings.

Rapid City‐Scale Earthquake Assessment by Combining Numerical Simulation and Sparse Sensing
Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.This study proposes a framework to assess the seismic risk by integrating city‐scale numerical simulations with sensor data prediction. The study begins with advanced numerical simulations using two primary methods: the integrated earthquake simulator (IES) and the stochastic Green's function method.
