Broad Skills, Smaller Footprints? Generalist CEOs and Firm Biodiversity Exposure
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We examine whether CEO generalist skills predict firm‐level biodiversity risk exposure, an emerging strategic and financial concern. Using the biodiversity indicator developed based on textual analysis and the General Ability Index, we find that firms led by generalist CEOs are associated with significantly lower disclosed biodiversity risk ...

Local scour at permeable spur dikes with different void size and position
Frontiers in WaterTrapezoidal permeable spur dikes are the most widely used structures for bank slope protection and waterway regulation in mountainous river channel projects of the upper Yangtze River, but local scouring damage at the dike head remains the primary cause ...

Effects of permeating flow on flow structures behind spur dikes [PDF]
In recent years, spur dikes are expected to demonstrate various functions. Permeating flow through the spur dike can control the flow field, structures of separation vortex and bed configuration around the spur dikes.

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We here describe mouse models with complementary homozygous Svil mutations. In skeletal muscle, Svil‐Mut mice express the Svil‐encoded N‐terminus fused to the βgal‐neo gene‐trap tag and lack the highly conserved archvillin C‐terminus; Svil‐KO mice lack expression of all known Svil‐encoded proteins; and Svil‐LoxP mice contain loxP sites for ...
