An Overlooked Habitat‐Dependent Link Between Metabolism and Water Loss in Reptiles
We measured the gas exchange of six lizard and six snake species, under high and low air humidity, and two intriguing patterns emerged. First, although desert species lose less water via evaporation than similar‐sized mesic species under similar conditions, water loss is virtually the same when each is exposed to its natural conditions.

Migrant Top Management Team and Corporate Innovation: Evidence From China
ABSTRACT This study explores the association between top management teams (TMT) comprised of migrant managers (migrant TMT) and corporate innovation. Using hand‐collected data for a sample of Chinese A‐share listed firms spanning the period 2008–2020, we find a positive and significant association between a migrant TMT and corporate innovation.

Abstract This study examines the adaptive market hypothesis in the prewar and wartime Japanese stock market using a new market capitalization‐weighted price index. First, we find that the degree of market efficiency varies over time and with major historical events. This implies that the hypothesis is supported in this market.

Caste criminalisation in South India and permanent migration to Fiji, 1903–1927
Abstract Does the official criminalisation of a group lead to permanent out‐migration? In the early 20th century, British officials in south India designated multiple castes as inherently criminal under the Criminal Tribes Act (CTA). The CTA required police registration and could force entire groups into special settlements.

Comparing training window selection methods for prediction in non‐stationary time series
Abstract The widespread adoption of smartphones creates the possibility to passively monitor everyday behaviour via sensors. Sensor data have been linked to moment‐to‐moment psychological symptoms and mood of individuals and thus could alleviate the burden associated with repeated measurement of symptoms.
