The Influence of Common Language on the Trade of Wheat and Bakery Products

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether sharing a common official language increases the probability that two countries engage in bilateral trade of wheat and bakery products. Using a binary choice framework applied to 54,780 country‐pair observations for 2023, probit and logit models of the extensive margin of trade are estimated, with a focus on whether

Contemporary Regional Disparities in Robotic‐Assisted Rectal Resection in Japan: A Nationwide Population‐Based Study Using the National Database Open Data

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Robotic‐assisted rectal resection in Japan increased markedly after national insurance reimbursement in 2018, with a concurrent decline in open surgery. Using NDB Open Data, we found substantial inter‐prefectural heterogeneity in surgical volume and robotic utilization that persisted after age and sex standardization (SCR). Urban–rural differences were

Projection of end-of-life electric vehicle batteries in India considering net-zero targets: a step towards circularity

Environmental Research Letters
India’s expanding road transport network has significantly improved connectivity but contributes 14% of energy-related emissions. Electrification is central to India’s net-zero target by 2070, but this transition will generate substantial electric ...

Urban robotics and responsible urban innovation [PDF]

Ethics and Information Technology, 2018
AbstractRobots are leaving factories and entering urban spaces. In this paper, I will explore how we can integrate robots of various types into the urban landscape. I will distinguish between two perspectives: (1) the responsible design and use of urban robots and (2) robots as part of responsible urban innovations. The first viewpoint considers issues

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

Global hotspots of compound extreme heat-pollution linked to local surface and atmospheric conditions

Communications Earth & Environment
Extreme heat and particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution are among the deadliest environmental hazards that threaten humans and ecosystems. Their co-occurrence, known as compound heat-pollution events, can amplify risks far beyond those posed by either ...
