Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

US State Policy Index for Population Health Analyses
The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.Policy Points Changes in states’ policy contexts since the 1980s may help explain why mortality rates among working‐age adults have risen and become more unequal across geographic areas. Investigating this pressing issue requires a new, industry‐standard measure of those contexts.

Hurricane‐induced risk contagion in commercial real estate: Evidence from Hurricane Sandy
Real Estate Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines how hurricane‐induced destruction affects the prices of nearby undamaged commercial real estate properties, using Hurricane Sandy as a natural experiment. Using Real Capital Analytics transaction records spatially merged with Federal Emergency Management Agency building‐level damage data, we empirically employ a difference ...

A framework for capturing indirect impacts in site‐level screening for biodiversity risks
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Site‐based industrial operations such as mining, oil and gas extraction and renewable energy development are associated with many direct and indirect impacts on biodiversity. Consideration of the full range of these impacts when selecting a buffer distance to approximate the Area of Influence (AoI) of a project is critical for effective ...
