Cumulative impacts increasingly threaten marine and coastal ecosystems. To address this issue, the research community has invested efforts on designing and testing different methodological approaches and tools that apply cumulative impact appraisal schemes for a sound evaluation of the complex interactions and dynamics among multiple pressures affecting marine and coastal ecosystems. Through an it

Despite growing insight into customers' brand experience, its effect on brand evangelism, or a customer's intense brand support behavior, remains tenuous, exposing an important literature-based gap. Addressing this gap, we adopt a Service-Dominant logic/Consumer Culture Theory perspective to uncover how customers' brand experience dimensions drive their evangelistic behavior for luxury hotels.

Boreal forests and peatlands store over 30% of the global terrestrial carbon in their vegetation and soil. but changing climate can compromise the current carbon stock. Rising air temperatures, changing precipitation patterns and increased risk of natural disturbances can impact the ability of the boreal ecosystems to absorb and store carbon, reducing their effectiveness as carbon sinks.

Den första enkäten i den Svenska Handelslogistik-panelen visar på flera trender som påverkar handelsföretag och framtida automatisering av lager. Rapporten pekar på en fortsatt snabb tillväxt både vad gäller omsättning, sortimentsstorlek och sortimentsbredd. Det sker en markant ökning av handelsföretag med hög grad av integration av butik och e-handel (s.k. omnikanal).

Den andra enkäten i den Svenska Handelslogistik-panelen understryker lagrets strategiska betydelse för att möta förväntningar från kunder, och visar på flera intressanta trender för utveckling och automatisering av handelns logistiknätverk och lager. Vi undersökte vilka strategiska logistikutmaningar som är viktigast för lagret i dagsläget och fem år framåt.

Escherichia coli CspA is an RNA binding protein that accumulates during cold-shock and stimulates translation of several mRNAs-including its own. Translation in the cold of cspA mRNA involves a cis-acting thermosensor element, which enhances ribosome binding, and the trans-acting action of CspA. Using reconstituted translation systems and probing experiments we show that, at low temperature, CspA

The food industry occupies a large portion of the plate in the study of moral markets. Moral markets for food include fair trade goods, organic products, family farmers initiatives, as well as plant-based meat alternatives, the focus of this paper. Driven by a growing concern for animal welfare, sustainability and the responsible use of resources, various companies launched products that successfu

Hip-related pain is an umbrella term encompassing pain from non-arthritic hip joint pathologies, such as femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, hip dysplasia, and labral tears. Exercise therapy is commonly recommended for these conditions, but the reporting completeness of these interventions is currently unclear. Purpose The aim of this systematic review was to assess the reporting completeness o

Abstract in UndeterminedThis article examines the recent judgment in case C-366/10 in which the CJEU upheld the widened scope of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme, to include aviation, against a challenge by US airlines. At the core of this case stands the question of the extent to which, if at all, the EU is allowed to unilaterally control greenhouse gas emissions from aviation given that to date t

Type-2 diabetes (T2D) develops due to insulin resistance and an inability of the pancreatic β-cells to increase secretion of insulin and reduce elevated blood glucose levels. Diminished β-cell function and mass have been implicated in impaired β-cell secretory capacity and several microRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported to be involved in regulating β-cell processes. We believe miRNAs are nodes in im

The petrochemicals industry (mainly plastics and fertilizer production) is expanding, despite increasing attention to the environmental impact of petrochemicals. In our paper, we explore the role public finance plays in the petrochemicals industry. We do so by mapping the public and private financial flows into large-scale petrochemical projects for the decade 2010-20 and discuss the role of publi

Wood ants are excellent navigators, using a combination of innate and learnt navigational strategies to travel between their nest and feeding sites. Visual navigation in ants has been studied extensively, however, we have little direct evidence for the underlying neural mechanisms. Here, we perform lateralized mechanical lesions in the central complex (CX) of wood ants, a midline structure known t

This paper presents and discusses the methodology and technical aspects of mechanical tests carried out at a wide strain rate range with simultaneous synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements. The motivation for the study was to develop capabilities for in-situ characterization of the loading rate dependency of mechanically induced phase transformations in steels containing metastable austenite.
