What's there beyond the sun and the sea? Detecting tourists' interest towards nature in a mass tourism destination using social media data

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Nature‐based tourism is a rapidly growing subsector of the international tourism industry. However, capturing broad‐scale patterns of nature visits during touristic trips or visitors' appreciation of nature may be difficult using traditional data sources and methods. In this study, we harness geotagged social media data to understand the scale

Future Probes of the Neutron Star Equation of State Using X-ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Observations with NASA's Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) have resulted in the discovery of fast (200 - 600 Hz), coherent X-ray intensity oscillations (hereafter, "burst oscillations") during thermonuclear X-ray bursts from 12 low mass X-ray binaries ...

Sustainable Foreign Direct Investment in Emerging Markets: The Institutional Drivers of Firms' Climate Action

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how home‐ and host‐country institutions jointly shape the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) on firms' climate action commitments (CAC) in emerging markets. Drawing on New Institutional Economics and Varieties of Capitalism, we conceptualize FDI as a mechanism of institutional transmission through which multinational

Modulation of CMB polarization with a warm rapidly-rotating half-wave plate on the Atacama B-Mode Search (ABS) instrument

open access: yes, 2014
We evaluate the modulation of Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarization using a rapidly-rotating, half-wave plate (HWP) on the Atacama B-Mode Search (ABS).

High‐Speed Rail and Spatial Equity: Unpacking the Sustainability Paradox of Land Use and Fiscal Pressure in County‐Level Cities

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infrastructure‐led development in rapidly urbanizing economies often generates accessibility gains that fail to translate into balanced urban outcomes, particularly when local fiscal institutions redirect those gains toward revenue‐generating land uses. Filling this gap, especially in fiscally constrained county‐level cities where land finance

Einstein--Weyl spaces and dispersionless Kadomtsev--Petviashvili equation from Painlev\'e I and II

open access: yes, 2002
We present two constructions of new solutions to the dispersionless KP (dKP) equation arising from the first two Painlev\'e transcendents. The first construction is a hodograph transformation based on Einstein--Weyl geometry, the generalised Nahm's ...

How participatory planning processes for transit-oriented development contribute to social sustainability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Transit-oriented development (TOD) is a relatively recent neighbourhood development concept associated with the three dimensions of urban sustainability (environmental, economic and social).

Organizing across cognitive asymmetry in human–AI collaboration: A study of perfume creation

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary As organizations increasingly adopt generative AI (GenAI), they face a strategic challenge: not only deciding which tasks AI should perform, but also how to organize the integration of human and AI efforts to produce viable solutions.

Where Are the r-modes? Chandra Observations of Millisecond Pulsars

open access: yes, 2017
We present the results of {\it Chandra} observations of two non-accreting millisecond pulsars, PSRs J1640$+$2224 (J1640) and J1709$+$2313 (J1709), with low inferred magnetic fields and spin-down rates in order to constrain their surface temperatures ...

From pollen provision to pollinator: Species‐specific sterol assimilation by wild bees in urban landscapes

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.
