Modeling Reliability Quantification of Water-Level Thresholds for Flood Early Warning

open access: yesHydrology
This study proposes a framework, the RA_WLTE_River model, for quantifying the reliability of flood-altering water-level thresholds, considering rainfall and runoff-related uncertainties. The Keelung River in northern Taiwan is selected as the study area,

From Green Governance to Biodiversity Strategy: The Role of Environmentally Experienced Directors in Chinese Firms

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how directors with environmental protection (EP) backgrounds influence corporate biodiversity concern (BIO) among Chinese A‐share listed firms from 2008 to 2023. Drawing on Upper Echelons Theory, we argue that directors' environmental expertise shapes firms' biodiversity strategies.

Do High Temperatures Affect Firm Demography? Evidence From Italy

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyses the impact of high temperatures and heat stress on Italian firm demography during 2009–2022. Combining provincial‐firm‐level data with a high‐resolution multidecadal meteorological dataset, we investigate whether high temperatures—absolute and anomalous—affect firm entry and exit rates.

Rainfall thresholds for the possible initiation of shallow landslides in the Italian Alps

open access: yes, 2014
Rainfall-induced shallow landslides are frequent in the Italian Alps, where they cause severe economic damages and loss of life. The prediction of rainfall-induced slope failures is of utmost importance for civil protection purposes and relies upon the ...

Why Some Firms Perceive Climate Risks and Others Do Not—Evidence From the Logistics Sector

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores how companies perceive risks stemming from climate change as a gradual process, focusing on the logistics sector. It advances research on organizational climate risk perception by integrating perspectives on embeddedness and resource configurations. Based on 41 semi‐structured interviews with representatives of 22 logistics

Rainfall thresholds for landslide occurrence: systematic underestimation using coarse temporal resolution data

open access: yes, 2019
Rainfall thresholds for landslides occurrence derived in real applications tend to be lower than the ones one would obtain using exact data. This letter shows how the use of coarse temporal resolution rainfall data causes a systematic overestimation of ...
