A transdisciplinary approach to define and assess wild food plant sustainable foraging in Norway

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 112-122, January 2023., 2023

Ethnic Conflicts, Civil War and Economic Growth: Region-Level Evidence from former Yugoslavia [PDF]

arXiv
We investigate the long-term impact of civil war on subnational economic growth across 78 regions in five former Yugoslav republics from 1950 to 2015. Leveraging the outbreak of ethnic tensions and the onset of conflict, we construct counterfactual growth trajectories using a robust region-level donor pool from 28 conflict-free countries.

An ecological and evolutionary perspective of the historical US nursery flora

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 146-159, January 2023., 2023
The plants sold in nurseries directly influence urban landscapes by providing habitat that supports humans and other organisms and indirectly influence the natural landscape by acting as a major source of invasive species. We analyzed the ornamental plants sold in US nurseries from 1719 to 1946 and found broad patterns of increasing diversity occurring

Exploratory Simulations on the Effectiveness of Sand Protection Strategies Against Firebrand Accumulation in Wildfires

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Firebrands are the leading cause of infrastructure damage during wildfires. However, dedicated protections specifically designed to mitigate firebrand accumulation, remain limited. In contrast, infrastructure protection strategies against sand accumulation have been developed, implemented and studied in detail. Because both sand and firebrands

Measuring the Impact of Transition Risk on Financial Markets: A Joint VaR‐ES Approach

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Based on a joint quantile and expected shortfall semiparametric methodology, we propose a novel approach to forecasting market risk conditioned to transition risk exposure. This method allows us to forecast two climate‐related financial risk measures called CoClimateVaR$$ CoClimateVaR $$ and CoClimateES$$ CoClimateES $$, being jointly ...
