The Active‐Passive Vehicle Routing Problem With Item Transshipments

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses a vehicle routing problem with synchronization constraints, in which pickup‐and‐delivery requests for single items are carried out using two types of vehicles: active and passive. The vehicles operate jointly, as passive vehicles, which are capacitated trailers, require active vehicles, which are autonomous trucks without ...

Exact Methods for the Cumulative Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem With Time Windows

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article studies the cumulative capacitated vehicle routing problem with time windows (CCVRPTW). The CCVRPTW consists of deciding the routing schedules for a set of homogeneous capacitated vehicles such that the latency, that is, the sum of the service start times at the customers, is minimized and the time windows as well as the vehicle ...

Caring for forests between attitude and platitude. Social relationships with nature in industrial forestry in Äänekoski, Finland

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Forests play a pivotal role in sustainability transitions. This article explores how people's relationships with forests, particularly how they care for or take care of them, shape and reflect broader tendencies and tensions in forest utilization and governance.

Iron(III) ion reinforced P(NiPAAm‐co‐AA) beads as tunable smart organogels

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Macroporous beads of PNiPAAm‐co‐AA copolymers were further crosslinked by iron(III) ions. The resulting beads are mechanically robust and reversibly responsive to a change of solvent from ethanol to ethyl acetate with half‐lives in the range of minutes.

Low‐order system for eddy growth in the storm track

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Reanalysis data for the North Atlantic storm track are used to construct a low‐order model that optimally fits the observed interaction between the mean flow and baroclinic eddies. The resulting model is a certain type of predator–prey model. It explains various properties of the storm track, including why eddies grow linearly with the Eady growth rate,

Reliability Analysis of Multi-source Multi-sink Critical Interacting Systems

, 2011
Traditional reliability studies on probabilistic networks are devoted to evaluate the probability that two nodes or K nodes are connected, assuming that nodes are undifferentiated.

Sustainability and Corporate Performance in the Global South: The Influence of the Environmental Pillar and Institutional Quality

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corporate sustainability in the Global South unfolds under heterogeneous institutional conditions, where firms face simultaneous pressures from global ESG standards and local governance constraints. This study examines the relationship between ESG‐aligned environmental practices and corporate financial performance, considering the moderating ...

Indigenous Relational Thought and Climate Crisis Response: Rethinking Human‐Environment Relations Beyond Technocratic Governance

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is frequently framed as a technical problem of emissions, risk, finance, adaptation planning, and institutional coordination. This critical integrative review, supported by scoping‐informed searching and transparent eligibility and synthesis procedures, examines how selected Indigenous relational literatures can deepen climate ...

Symbols of Climate Action: Audit Labor and the Production of Carbon Credits

Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Voluntary carbon markets (VCMs) are promoted as tools for financing climate mitigation, yet their effectiveness and credibility remain contested. This article examines how carbon credits are produced and destabilized as symbols of climate action, emphasizing the forms of ecological and audit labor that sustain their legitimacy.

Fruit growth and photosynthesis are differentially affected by local variation in source/sink relations

, 2018
Tree crop load affects carbon acquisition as well as processes like floral induction or fruit growth. Nevertheless little is known about the impact of local variations of source / sink relationships on these processes variability within the tree.
