A “Conveyor Belt” From International Standards to Domestic Regulation? Evidence From the International Political Economy of Net Zero Governance

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT When and how do international standards influence domestic policies? The literature identifies a range of ways international standards may relate to domestic regulations—including by exporting, substituting, supplanting, or bolstering national rules—creating theoretical ambiguity.

Density Estimates of Endangered Endemic Rodents Suggest Broader Impacts of Invasive Burmese Pythons Following a Category 4 Hurricane in the Florida Keys

Biological Diversity, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 88-98, June 2026.
Density estimates of two endangered rodent subspecies, endemic to Key Largo, Florida, USA. These findings illustrate the contrasting dynamics of two native species associated with the prevalence of invasive Burmese pythons and global change. The woodrats' decline emphasizes its potential risk of extinction as global change continues to impact island ...

Spatially Explicit Capture-Recapture Through Camera Trapping: A Review of Benchmark Analyses for Wildlife Density Estimation

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Camera traps have become an important research tool for both conservation biologists and wildlife managers. Recent advances in spatially explicit capture-recapture (SECR) methods have increasingly put camera traps at the forefront of population ...

Micromechanical modeling of the Compression of the Damaged Zone experiment in the Callovo-Oxfordian formation [PDF]

Advances in Geosciences, 2018
A theoretical model of the Compression of the Damaged Zone experiment is proposed. The tools of micromechanics are used to represent the fractured zone. Assuming an elastic behavior of the sound COx claystone and a simplified geometry of the drift, an

Adaptive data collection strategies for spatial capture–recapture monitoring: Linking monitoring approaches to seasonal variation in density and space use

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
Effective monitoring of wildlife populations is critical for conservation, but long‐term, large‐scale efforts are often limited, leading to inconsistent and disconnected site‐based data. This study evaluated adaptable, search–encounter data collection strategies for lions (Panthera leo) in Nairobi National Park across three surveys (2018, 2021 and 2022)

Social discounting, social costs of carbon, and their use in energy system models

Environmental Research Letters, 2021
Discounting plays a large role in cost-optimization models, but is nevertheless often only covered in little detail in energy system models. The aim of this paper is to highlight the effects of varying discount rates and social costs of carbon in energy ...

Environmental Performance Drivers: A Political Cost Approach

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 4102-4147, March 2026.
ABSTRACT We contribute to the business strategy and the environment literature by examining the effect of political cost pressures on corporate environmental performance in the context of United Kingdom‐listed firms. Drawing on a sample of non‐financial firms from the FTSE All‐Share Index over a period of 10 years (2013–2022), we construct novel ...

Structure and dynamics of the active Gs-coupled human secretin receptor

Nature Communications, 2020
The class B secretin GPCR (SecR) has broad physiological effects, with target potential for treatment of metabolic and cardiovascular disease. Here, authors present a cryo-EM structure and biochemical studies of secretin binding to the SecR:Gs complex ...

Mountains Without Borders: Scaling up Conservation Success for Snow Leopards

Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 1-4, March 2026.
This special issue assembles pioneering research addressing three critical and interconnected challenges: establishing where viable populations persist at range edges, advancing methods to monitor this cryptic species and its prey effectively, and evaluating whether landscapes remain connected across political boundaries.

Integrating fecal DNA and telemetry to estimate wildlife densities in anthropogenic landscapes

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
Density estimation is central to wildlife management efforts but can be challenging in anthropogenic landscapes due to small parcel sizes, access restrictions, and limited green space. We evaluated (a) the use of a plot‐based spatial capture‐recapture sampling design to estimate deer density in developed landscapes and (b) if integrating telemetry data
