Good Condition, but Noisy: Critical Gaps in Ecological Assessment Frameworks

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Ecological condition assessments can guide conservation priorities yet often neglect pervasive stressors such as noise pollution. We examined whether assessed ecological condition reflects exposure to transportation noise exceeding 50 dB Lden (day–evening–night levels), a conservative threshold given documented negative effects on wildlife at ...

The Environmental Cost of Development in a Biodiversity Hotspot

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Global infrastructure development is reshaping tropical environments, yet its biodiversity consequences remain poorly quantified. We assess the ecological implications of Mexico's Interoceanic Corridor of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (CIIT), a transcontinental megaproject linking transportation between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans across a ...

Financial/Social Trade‐Offs in Dual‐Purpose Companies

Journal of Management Studies, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 3097-3132, September 2026.
Abstract Dual‐purpose companies (DPCs) encounter numerous financial and social trade‐offs in their operations. However, existing research has not fully explored the heterogeneity and antecedents of these trade‐offs. To bridge this gap, we first distinguish between scenarios in which trade‐offs are mitigated or intensified, and then categorize the ...

When Infrastructure Pushes Residents Out: High‐Speed Rail and Tourism Outflows

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 1029-1050, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impact of high‐speed rail (HSR) connectivity on both inbound and outbound tourism inflows. Leveraging the opening of a new HSR line connecting a northern Spanish region with mainland Spain, we employ a triple difference‐in‐differences design combined with inverse probability weighting (IPW) to evaluate the causal effect

The Cost of Convenience: A Hedonic Approach to Travel Time Valuation and Cost‐Benefit Analysis

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 1140-1165, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel revealed‐preference approach to estimating the value of travel time (VTT) and calculating consumer surplus for the economic evaluation of transport infrastructure. Departing from traditional stated‐preference models, we derive time valuations by linking residential rental transactions in Greater Sydney to employment

The Impact of Autonomous Truck Technology on US Interstate Trade

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 1166-1189, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in autonomous and semi‐autonomous vehicle technologies promise substantial cost savings for goods shipped by truck. In this study, we quantify the impacts of these transport cost reductions on the US interstate trade using a structural gravity model of domestic trade. Based on projected cost savings from the widespread adoption

Local Crime Spillover Onto Public–Private Partnership Financing Commitment: Do Urban Proximity and Local Affluence Matter?

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 1221-1241, September 2026.
ABSTRACT While the relationship between public infrastructure and crime location choices is well‐studied in criminology, the impact of crime as a spillover externality on public–private partnership (PPP) infrastructure financing remains unexplored. Leveraging a data set of 542 Private Finance Initiative (PFI)‐funded infrastructures in England and Wales
