Socially Responsible Investors and Corporate Resistance to Climate Disruptions: Agents of Change or Passive Participants?

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is a global challenge with far‐reaching implications for firms and capital markets. This study examines whether ownership by socially responsible investors (SRIs) enhances firms' resilience to climate shocks. Focusing on transition and physical climate risks, we analyse whether SRI ownership reduces firms' stock return ...

Developing a Modeling Framework for Integrated Wildfire Management Strategies: Preventing, Forecasting and Managing Extreme Wildfires

open access: yes
Wildfires reflect the complex human-environment relationship, with humans shaping fire regimes through wildfire ignitions, suppression efforts, and fuel availability. Wildfires mirror ongoing socio-economic and climate changes: extreme fire weather combines with fire-prone landscapes and growing human exposure in wildland-urban areas, driving changes ...

Climate Change Commitment: As Agency Theory Pertains to Engaging Supply Chains in Science‐Based Targets

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We explore how corporates working towards valid Science‐based Targets engage with their suppliers to collect Scope 3 emissions data. This is important to enable such corporates to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve net‐zero by 2050. Utilising agency theory, we analyse 1402 responses from the 2021 CDP climate change survey.

Seasonal Habitat Selection by a Threatened Ungulate in an Industrializing Boreal Landscape

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Understanding habitat selection by Threatened wood bison in landscapes characterized by anthropogenic disturbance is important for conservation planning. During summer and winter, bison selected for linear (e.g., roads, seismic lines, pipelines) and polygonal (e.g., well sites) disturbances, unless there were high densities of linear features.

Impacts of the Australian Black Summer Fires on Bat Occupancy and Activity: The Role of Traits and Conservation Status

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
The response of bats to Australian megafires was assessed one year after fires. High severity fire had a negative effect on total bat activity and the activity or occupancy of six species, while a further 10 species was not associated with any fire covariate. Overall, bat responses were complex and not easily predicted by traits alone.
