Redacted Disclosures and Bank Loan Contract Terms
ABSTRACT We investigate the impact of redacting disclosures on bank loan contracts. Our findings indicate that firms that redact information have loans with significantly higher spreads, shorter maturities, and more restrictive covenants and face a greater likelihood they will be required to post collateral compared to firms that do not redact ...

ABSTRACT Ensuring the long‐term erosional stability of post‐mining landforms remains a major challenge in open‐pit mining. Reconstructed landscapes must support the agreed post‐mining land use, such as cattle grazing in the Hunter region of southeastern Australia, requiring stable pasture and minimal soil loss.

Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is one of the most widely used geophysical techniques for hydrogeological questions, such as investigating the groundwater transition zone between land and sea. The interpretation of 2D coast‐parallel ERT profiles is challenging because most of the electrical current flows through the highly conductive ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...
