From Inner Capacities to Global Outcomes: Social–Emotional Capital as a Driver of SDG Performance

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite unprecedented global commitment to the 2030 Agenda, progress toward the sustainable development goals (SDGs) continues to lag in ways that structural, institutional, and resource‐based explanations do not fully explain. This study argues that a critical missing dimension is human: the psychological and relational capacities that enable

How Do Governance Arrangements Shape Community Empowerment in Rural Ecotourism? Evidence From Wuyuan, China

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how governance arrangements shape community empowerment in rural ecotourism in China. Drawing on the six dimensions of the community empowerment framework (CEF), the study analyses qualitative data from semi‐structured interviews with 30 villagers across four ecotourism‐oriented cases in Wuyuan.

Bending and vibration behavior of functionally graded piezoelectric nanobeams considering dynamic flexoelectric and surface effects

open access: yesScientific Reports
This paper develops a more comprehensive theoretical model for functionally graded material (FGM) piezoelectric nanobeams. The model incorporates a Winkler–Pasternak linear elastic foundation and fully accounts for the effects of dynamic flexoelectric ...

Justice Coherence in Climate Legislation: A Design‐Level Evaluation of South Africa's Climate Change Act 22 of 2024

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT South Africa's Climate Change Act 22 of 2024 was enacted amid escalating climate risk, entrenched inequality, carbon‐intensive development, and uneven state capacity. This article evaluates the Act at the level of policy design rather than implementation outcomes.

Decomposing venture evaluation: Learning about belief formation

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Evaluating early‐stage ventures is difficult because observable signals of future quality are weak and noisy. How closely are evaluators' assessments related to venture quality, and do their subjective judgments add to the information already available about a venture?

Beyond monofunctionality: structural perspectives on phenol oxidase side activity in a catalase

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterization of the extracellular fungal catalase ClCPO uncovers an unexpected phenol oxidase promiscuity. Crystal structures, substrate docking and electron‐transfer pathway analysis identify ligand‐binding regions and support a working mechanistic model for catalase‐associated phenol oxidase activity.Catalases are ...

Early‐life environment drives long‐term decrease in adult body mass in a wild bird population

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using more than 90,000 body mass measures of adult and nestling great tits Parus major, we show that the 1 SD decline in adult mass between 1978 and 2024 is a consequence of changes in the environment (i.e. increase in population density) experienced at early life.

Why don't all birds lay early? Causes and consequences of breeding timing for a long‐lived migratory seabird

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Why don't all birds lay early? Our 16‐year study of Manx shearwater behaviour shows that selection on breeding timing fluctuates among years. We also find that lay dates are influenced by persistent individual differences, variation in non‐breeding duration, and pair synchrony, potentially constraining breeding phenological advancement under ongoing ...
