Between famine and freedom: Food prices during the Indonesian War of Independence, 1945–9
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract This paper investigates how the Indonesian War of Independence (1945‒9) influenced staple food prices, and how fluctuations in those prices, in turn, shaped the trajectory and dynamics of the conflict. We compiled a dataset comprising more than 8600 prices for staple foods covering the entire Indonesian archipelago from 1939‒49, allowing us to

Climate Regulation and ESG Disclosure in Maritime Transport
European Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether climate policy signals influence ESG disclosure quality in maritime transport, a capital‐intensive industry responsible for roughly 3% of global CO₂ emissions. Using panel data from 126 listed shipping firms between 2009 and 2023, we construct an author‐based disclosure quality index and treat the IMO's 2018 ...

Past Carbon Emissions and Future Targets for the Olympic Games
The Geographical Journal, EarlyView.Short Abstract The global visibility and political weight of the Olympic Games can inspire climate change action. Yet, at the same time, the Olympics are also significant carbon emitters. To date, however, there is a lack of a systematic assessment of past carbon emissions and extrapolation of future targets considering international agreements.

Straddle carrier routing optimization at container terminals utilizing telemetry‐based prediction
International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Efficient vehicle routing and scheduling for horizontal transport means on container terminals can reduce lead times and travel distances, resulting in fuel savings and productivity gains. We apply machine learning to emulate operational processes, bridging the gap between theoretical optimization models and real‐world practices at container ...
