Relative influence of wild prey and livestock abundance on carnivore‐caused livestock predation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Conservation conflict over livestock depredation is one of the key drivers of large mammalian carnivore declines worldwide. Mitigating this conflict requires strategies informed by reliable knowledge of factors influencing livestock depredation.

Climate Change Risks and Customer Concentration: Evidence From US‐Listed Firms

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While prior studies have investigated climate risks in supply chains, customer ESG pressures, and shared climate exposure, this paper is, to the best of our knowledge, the first to provide direct empirical evidence on the relationship between climate change risks and firms' customer concentration.

Greens in Regulation: Biodiversity Strategy Implementation Across the Golf Industry

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although much of the business and biodiversity literature focuses on extractive industries, we turn our attention to the golf industry. Golf courses occupy millions of acres globally, yet biodiversity strategy implementation across the golf industry remains understudied.

Potential of multispectral reflectance for assessment of snow geophysical parameters in Solang valley in the lower Indian Himalayas

open access: yesGIScience & Remote Sensing, 2020
Snow geophysical parameters such as wetness, density and permittivity are a significant input in hydrological models and water resource management. In this paper, we utilize the triangle method based on a feature space developed with the near-infrared ...

Development of a Mechanically Regenerating Desublimator for Freeze‐Drying Systems in the Food Industry

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Thermal defrosting limits desublimator efficiency in freeze‐drying. This review and case study compares thermal versus mechanical regeneration, links frost properties and external heat transfer to energy demand, and summarizes pilot‐scale scraping results enabling single‐unit, continuous lyophilization.

Mathematical modeling of snow drifts transport by wind over the mountain terrain [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hyperstructures, 2013
In this paper, estimation of snow particles motion velocity and snow-drift density by mathematical modeling is studied. The snow particles flow is modeling from fluid dynamic concepts and micro-continuum approach (couple stresses fluid [1]).

Simulating snow maps for Norway: description and statistical evaluation of the seNorge snow model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Daily maps of snow conditions have been produced in Norway with the seNorge snow model since 2004. The seNorge snow model operates with 1 × 1 km resolution, uses gridded observations of daily temperature and precipitation as its input forcing, and ...

Permeability of granite from a shallow buried mountain pipe gallery tunnel under unloading confining pressure

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Triaxial compression tests under unloading confining pressure conditions were conducted to systematically analyze the permeability behavior of granite retrieved from the different classification surrounding rocks. Abstract The rock mass within mountain tunnels undergoes complex changes in permeability, strength, and deformation during tunneling ...

Device with rectangular section for layer-by-layer snow sampling

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2015
A new snow layer probing device with a rectangular section is described in the paper. This device allows receiving snow samples with the undisturbed structures of snow layers, and more accurately reflects the actual value of the snow water equivalent ...
