Abstract Recent efforts to secure development by Febi and Kubo people in Papua New Guinea's Western Province reveal a patterned history of failing brokers, incomplete projects and wasted money. Within this longer trajectory, three overlapping waves of brokerage can be discerned, each emerging in response to the limitations of its predecessors.

Is the World Getting Smaller? Network‐Driven Heterogeneity in Gravity‐Model Elasticities
ABSTRACT Gravity models constitute the workhorse of empirical international trade research, yet the temporal stability of their core parameters—distance and GDP elasticities—remains underexplored, particularly in relation to the evolving structure of trade networks.

Abstract Soil microbial carbon‐use efficiency (CUE) and biomass turnover have been identified as important drivers of biogeochemical processes; however, we lack a comprehensive understanding of the factors driving them. Here, we tested how multifactorial carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) amendments affect microbial CUE and biomass turnover ...

Alternative covering approaches to protect ultradwarf bermudagrass putting greens from winterkill
Abstract Winterkill remains a constant concern for warm‐season putting greens in the transition zone, particularly on ultradwarf hybrid bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers × C. transvaalensis Burtt‐Davy]. Using protective covers is an essential management strategy to prevent winterkill on putting greens.
