Weather Action: A Study on the Industry Peer Effects of Corporate Climate Risk Information Disclosure

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global climate change has elevated the strategic importance of corporate climate risk disclosure, yet the role of industry peer effects in shaping such disclosure remains underexplored. Grounded in social learning theory, this study proposes an “observation–imitation–reinforcement” framework and empirically tests it using panel data on Chinese

Making Value‐Chain Risks Visible: Extending ENCORE for Systemic Insights

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Businesses in all sectors, including downstream segments, depend on biodiversity and the ecosystem services it sustains, yet firms also exert pressures that accelerate biodiversity loss. The latter generates material risks for both companies and their financial stakeholders.

Unified method for the prediction of rain attenuation in satellite and terrestrial links

Journal of Microwaves, Optoelectronics and Electromagnetic Applications
In this paper, a semi-empirical method for the prediction of rain attenuation in slant paths and terrestrial links is proposed. The method uses the same simplified model of equivalent rain cell that is the basis for the ITU-R rain attenuation prediction ...

Rain attenuation

, 2002
Attenuation due to rain is an important propagation effect which must be considered in the design of satellite telecommunication systems. The attenuation by rain depends on the temperature, size distribution, terminal velocity and shape of the raindrops.

The Influence of Incongruent Line Extensions on Choice of a Brand's Pre‐Existing Products: The Mediating Role of Curiosity

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many brands have added highly incongruent products to their product lines, such as Lay's Chicken and Waffles Potato Chips, Blueberry Cheerios, and Carrot Cake Oreos. This paper investigates how highly incongruent products influence the choice of pre‐existing items in the product line.

Millimetre-wave propagation channel based on NYUSIM channel model with consideration of rain fade in tropical climates [PDF]

Tehnika
The impact of atmospheric attenuation on wireless communication links is much more severe and complicated in tropical regions. That is due to the extreme temperatures, intense humidity, foliage and higher precipitation rain rates. This paper investigates

Green and sustainable synthesis of magnetite from copper slag via citrate complexation for methylene blue dye removal from water

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study proposes a novel, green, and sustainable method for synthesizing magnetic iron oxides from metallurgical copper slag (CS), leveraging its iron content as a valuable resource. Iron was extracted via acid leaching using edible citric acid (ECA), forming a citrate–iron complex (CSL), which was subsequently thermally decomposed at 300°C

Electromagnetic Modeling of the Propagation Characteristics of Satellite Communications Through Composite Precipitation Layers, Part II: Results of Computer Simulations

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2000
A versatile Propagation Simulation Program (PSP) is developed to assess the degrading effects caused by the concurrent occurrences of an arbitrary mixture of ice plates and needles, melting snow and raindrops which may impede the reliability of dual ...

Aero‐breakup of droplets: Recent progress and outlook

Droplet, EarlyView.
This work systematically reviews the recent progress of droplet aero‐breakup studies. The discussion covers the research history, theoretical framework, new breakup mode discoveries, influence of droplet fluid properties, scenarios of multi‐droplet and droplet cloud, and finally, an outlook for future explorations is presented. Abstract Aero‐breakup of

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.
