Resource Availability and Habitat Quality Drive Time‐Lag Effects in High‐Altitude Ungulate Distribution

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Our analysis revealed that while climate strongly influenced species distributions, habitat change drove most observed delays in distribution responses. In terms of community ecology, dispersed communities exhibited shorter time lags than concentrated groups.

An Almost Integration-free Approach to Ordered Response Models [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we propose an alternative approach to the estimation of ordered response models. We show that the Probit-method may be replaced by a simple OLS-approach, called P(robit)OLS, without any loss of efficiency.

ABSTRACT This article studies entry preemption in new industries. We first test a key prediction of dynamic entry games: Entry preemption is most relevant in intermediate‐sized markets, where firms face highest uncertainty about future entry. Using US drive‐in theater market (1945–1957) data, we find robust evidence for this non‐monotonic relationship ...

We investigate the effects of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board's (PCAOB) international inspection access on the value of cash holdings for non‐US companies. Utilizing a difference‐in‐differences (DiD) research design, we find that investors assign significantly higher value to a non‐US company's cash holdings when the company's non‐US ...

It remains unclear whether treating CMDs in adolescence can reduce subsequent psychosis risk. We applied quasi‐experimental methods to national register data to assess whether a causal relationship exists between selective ...

Abstract Does the official criminalisation of a group lead to permanent out‐migration?
