Importance of using genetic data to inform conservation captive breeding: A tale of two species of threatened macaws (Ara spp.)

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Unmanaged captive populations of threatened species often harbor hidden genetic risks, so using genomic tools, we audited a large private macaw collection and uncovered extensive hybridization and high inbreeding. Our findings provide an actionable framework for how routine genetic screening can be used to mitigate these risks, manage captive breeding ...

Optimal Hedging Strategies in the Low‐Sulphur Bunker Fuel Landscape

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The IMO2020 regulation for the green transition in shipping turned the industry into using two compliant bunker fuels: very low‐sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) and low‐sulphur marine gas oil (LSMGO). VLSFO futures contracts introduced in late 2019 and other energy‐related futures contracts indicate that the VLSFO contracts trading on the Singapore ...

The Spillover Effects of Exogenous Events on Management Forecasts: Evidence From U.S. Major Hurricanes

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine how peer firms outside hurricane‐affected regions respond through management forecasts. Hurricanes weaken affected firms and create opportunities for unaffected peers, which may attract investor attention and reduce heightened uncertainty.

The Effects of Information Technologies on the Bankruptcy Decision

Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exploiting the staggered adoptions of electronic systems across 70 bankruptcy courts in the United States, I investigate the impacts of digital transformation on bankruptcy behavior. The digital transformation in bankruptcy courts significantly lowered the cost of filing by enabling debtors to file for bankruptcy online, yet empirical tests ...

Triple Oxygen Isotope Compositions of Isotopic Reference Waters: Implications for VSMOW‐Scale and VSMOW–SLAP‐Scale Δ′17O Calibration

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Triple oxygen isotope ratios of two primary (VSMOW, SLAP) and twelve secondary water isotopic reference materials were precisely measured using BrF5 fluorination‐IRMS. The measured Δ'17OVSMOW value for SLAP (34 ± 6 per meg) demonstrates that VSMOW‐SLAP normalisation ensures interlaboratory comparability, but introduces systematic offsets for

Declining habitat directive butterflies within a major stronghold: Challenges for conservation Rückläufige Tagfalter der FFH‐Richtlinie in einer bedeutenden Hochburg: Herausforderungen für den Naturschutz

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Myrmecophilous Phengaris nausithous and P. teleius are highly specialized grassland butterflies and flagship species for European nature conservation, but they exhibit ongoing population declines. We show strong declines for both species in the Westerwald mountain range, western Germany, since 1994, driven by inappropriate timing of mowing, grassland ...
