Biodiversity Strategies in Action—Empirical Evidence From the Food Value Chain

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is an increasing need for better understanding of firm activities that contribute to biodiversity preservation. Panwar, Ober, and Pinkse offer a valuable typology of corporate biodiversity protection strategies based on temporal and spatial dimensions, namely, the preloss (proactive) strategies of conservation and compensation, and the ...

Carbon Markets and Green Innovation: Path‐Dependent Firm Responses to Emissions Trading

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper identifies a dynamic boundary condition of the Porter hypothesis by examining how firms' pre‐existing innovation trajectories shape regulatory‐induced green innovation within the context of a market‐based carbon policy. Building on path dependency theory, we argue that firms' responses to environmental regulation are contingent on ...

African Twist of Circular Economy: Insights, Policies and Recommendations

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the circular economy (CE) has gained traction, this paper argues that mainstream CE approaches risk being misaligned in the African context. Drawing on a mixed‐methods synthesis of empirical studies, policy documents and cross‐country examples, the study shows that Africa's CE transition is fragmented and uneven, leaving the continent at

Rewiring the Circular Economy Through AI‐Informed Pathways: Structural and Distributional Drivers of Environmental Outcomes in the European Union

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the structural and distributional factors that influence environmental performance in 27 European Union (EU) countries from 2010 to 2021, focusing especially on circular economy (CE) measures and the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI)‐based analytical tools.

Do Incentive‐Based Policies Reduce Firm‐Level CO2$$ {}_2 $$ Emissions? Evidence From EU Cohesion Policy

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine whether incentive‐based policies reduce CO2$$ C{O}_2 $$ emissions among beneficiary Italian firms, using project‐level data from European cohesion policy. Exploiting quasi‐random variation in the timing of EU‐funded projects, we apply a staggered difference‐in‐differences design.

Vegetation Dynamics

2015
Understanding ecosystem structure and function requires familiarity with the techniques, knowledge and concepts of the three disciplines of plant physiology, remote sensing and modelling. This is the first textbook to provide the fundamentals of these three domains in a single volume. It then applies cross-disciplinary insights to multiple case studies

The contribution of brown vegetation to vegetation dynamics

Ecology, 2010
Indices of vegetation dynamics that include both green vegetation (GV) and non‐photosynthetic vegetation (NPV), that is, brown vegetation, were applied to MODIS surface reflectance data from 2000 to 2006 for the southwestern United States. These indices reveal that the cover of NPV, a measure of vegetation brownness and a component of ecosystems ...

Vegetation-Erosion Dynamics

2015
In a broad sense, all rivers develop from rills and gullies in the process of erosion. Erosion is classified according to agents causing erosion into water erosion, wind erosion, gravity erosion, glacier erosion and cultural erosion. Water erosion occurs in different forms: splash erosion, sheet erosion, rill erosion, gully erosion and channel erosion.

Long-Term Studies of Vegetation Dynamics

Science, 2001
By integrating a wide range of experimental, comparative, and theoretical approaches, ecologists are starting to gain a detailed understanding of the long-term dynamics of vegetation. We explore how patterns of variation in demographic traits among species have provided insight into the processes that structure plant communities.

Feedbacks and landscape-level vegetation dynamics

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2015
Alternative stable-state theory (ASS) is widely accepted as explaining landscape-level vegetation dynamics, such as switches between forest and grassland. This theory argues that webs of feedbacks stabilise vegetation composition and structure, and that abrupt state shifts can occur if stabilising feedbacks are weakened.
