Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

Snow stratigraphic heterogeneity within ground-based passive microwave radiometer footprints: implications for emission modeling [PDF]
, 2014 Two-dimensional measurements of snowpack properties (stratigraphic layering, density, grain size and temperature) were used as inputs to the multi-layer Helsinki University of Technology (HUT) microwave emission model at a centimeter-scale horizontal ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

CEO Managerial Ability and the Strategic Repetition of Climate Disclosures
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines whether CEO managerial ability shapes the repetition of firms' climate‐related disclosures in mandatory 10‐K filings. Climate reporting is highly judgment based and central to firms' broader climate‐risk management strategies, yet little is known about why some firms repeatedly use similar climate narratives and others ...

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

Evaluation of Operation IceBridge quick-look snow depth estimates on sea ice [PDF]
, 2015 We evaluate Operation IceBridge (OIB) ‘quick-look’ (QL) snow depth on sea ice retrievals using in situ measurements taken over immobile first-year ice (FYI) and multi-year ice (MYI) during March of 2014. Good agreement was found over undeformed FYI (-4.5
