Modelling Patterns of Past Inundation Processes Combining Geoarchaeology and Morphometric Hydrological Analysis in the Shashe‐Limpopo Basin, South Africa

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverine and valley systems across the globe have been central to the development of past urban centres. By AD 900, the Shashe and Limpopo Rivers seem to have facilitated the interaction and integration of early farming communities in southern Africa. This paper focuses on the application of geoarchaeological perspectives made available by the

Natural disaster risk salience and the strategic appointment of directors with sustainability expertise

open access: yesJournal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.

Multi‐year occupancy and habitat use in a threatened butterfly reintroduced onto a restored peatland

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over half of insect species reintroductions are unsuccessful, frequently because of insufficient habitat resources and a knowledge‐gap regarding the target species habitat requirements. Multi‐season occupancy models, seldom used with invertebrates, offer the opportunity to disentangle the effects of habitat suitability and ...
