What Do We Know About How Companies Manage Waste? The Effect of Tenure and Diversity of Directors on Disclosures

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper aims to analyze the effect of board tenure on firms' waste management disclosure and explore whether this effect is amplified by board gender and cultural diversity. The analysis is based on data from 832 large firms worldwide from 2011 to 2020.

Low‐nitrogen addition amplifies the positive effect of grazing exclusion on plant diversity and community stability

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Grazing exclusion is widely used for grassland restoration but often improves productivity slowly, whereas nitrogen (N) addition can rapidly boost productivity yet may erode plant diversity and community stability over the long term.

Keplerian disks and outflows around binary post-AGB stars

, 2021
There is a class of binary post-AGB stars that are surrounded by Keplerian disks and that often present outflows resulting from gas escaping from the disk. To date there are seven sources that have been studied in detail through interferometric millimeter-wave maps of CO lines.

Optical and Near Infrared Observations of Post-AGB Stars [PDF]

Highlights of Astronomy, 1998
The post-AGB stars rapidly change their spectral energy distribution on their way from the asymptotic giant branch(AGB) to planetary nebula stage. They are generally surrounded by cool and extended dust shells emitting largely in the infrared wavelengths.A selected sample of the post-AGB candidates were observed using the CCDand IR camera at Kiso and ...

Enterococcus faecalis and Endodontic Treatment Failure: A Qualitative Systematic Review of Its Role and Elimination Strategies

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to synthesize evidence on the influence of Enterococcus faecalis on endodontic treatment failure and strategies for its elimination. This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD420251022741).

Evolutionary Properties of Post-AGB and Post-EAGB Stars [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1993
We discuss the evolutionary properties of shell burning star models which, due to the erosion of the external hydrogen envelope, leave the Hayashi track and evolve to the blue of the HR diagram. We analyze the properties of star models which evolve off the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB), the Early-AGB or the Red Giant Branch (RGB).

Exploring Tolerance Towards Corruption in the European Union Through Experienced Corruption, Perceived Corruption and Institutional Trust

Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corruption is a major problem that undermines the foundations of democracy and reduces citizens' trust in institutions. However, even in the world's most advanced countries, citizens accept certain levels of corruption. This tolerance towards corruption (TC) reduces the impact of anti‐corruption actions and ends up giving a patina of normality

AGB and post-AGB stars

, 2005
Intermediate mass stars (1-8 solar masses) evolve along the Asymptotic Giant Branch after completion of hydrogen and helium core burning. At the tip they lose for several ten to hundred thousand years copious amounts of mass and exhibit various forms of variability, as for example large-amplitude variations with periods of one to five years.

Phylogeography of the widely distributed John Dory (Zeus faber, Actinopterygii: Zeiformes) reaffirms the prevalence of at least two deeply divergent clades

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The John Dory Zeus faber is a commercially exploited demersal fish species with a known distribution ranging from the Northeast Atlantic to parts of the Indian and Pacific oceans. A previous genetic survey using cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) DNA barcodes suggested the presence of two geographically segregated taxonomic units within Z ...
