Abstract:

Abstract Purpose The environmental and economic impacts of livestock production systems are typically assessed using global characterisation factors and data, even though several impact categories call for site-specific assessments. Here, we account for spatial variability by addressing potential interactions between geographic locality and the cost-effectiveness of farm investments that aim to reduce system environmental impact, using Danish pig production as a case-in-point. Methods An LCA-based, spatially explicit environmental abatement cost framework was developed to assess the cost-effec

ABSTRACT: This research examines accounting faculty job search and selection in the tightening academic job market. Surveys were sent to all new accounting Ph.D.s and to faculty who relocated from 2002 to 2004. The survey included 37 factors of importance (e.g., salary, geographical location) to new Ph.D.s in selecting their initial faculty position and to relocating faculty. Overall, faculty appear to be very concerned with their teaching load, criteria used for promotion and tenure decisions, and compatibility with other faculty. Most faculty viewed likelihood of getting tenure as very impor

A two-stage approach was applied.

Poor adherence to a gluten-free diet for those with celiac disease is a well-established risk factor, leading to gastrointestinal symptoms, malabsorption of nutrients, and psychiatric complications.

In this paper the focus is on the problems for corporate governance posed by the increased integration of national economies. One of the biggest concerns is the question of just how far local laws can be supplanted by globalised rules of corporate governance and accounting. The importance of standards of financial reporting, as demonstrated by the financial crises of the late 2000s, is touched upon. 'Global Accounting' has been developed as a method of control which superseded national rules. It is pointed out that companies today rarely have one central geographical location, due to factors s

The concept of pro-poor growth interconnects and examines mutual relationships between income growth, income poverty and income inequality. Using the World Bank’s income data, we calculate and interpret indicators of pro-poor growth for individual African countries. Then we analyze the results in terms of African regionalization and we investigate possible associations between pro-poor growth categories and selected geographic factors such as location, population size or population density. We show t

Abstract:

In the context of the Brazilian electrical sector, there are no references regarding the application of BIM (Building Information Modeling) and GIS (Geographic Information System) in construction and maintenance of Electric Power Substations. Thus, this work proposes the integration of these technologies, since previous experiences in other engineering fields have shown promising advances that could be useful for the management and maintenance of the electrical power market. By associating these technologies, it is possible to obtain a more accurate mapping of the information related to the as

Abstract:

This study explores the application of urban spatial monitoring data in the implementation and evaluation of urban planning, with a particular focus on the spatial distribution and dynamic evolution of innovative activities within urban territories. Using the G60 Innovation Corridor in the Yangtze River Delta as a case study, this study analyzes invention patent data from nine cities from 2010 to 2021, combined with the International Patent Classification (IPC) system and geographic information technology. The findings reveal that: (1) The number of invention patents in the G60 Innovation Corr

Abstract:

Large-scale patterns of plant invasions may reflect regional heterogeneity in biotic and abiotic factors and genetic variation within and between invading populations. Having information on how effects of biotic resistance vary spatially can be especially important when implementing biological control because introduced agents may have different Impacts through interactions with host-plant genotype, local environment, or other novel enemies. We conducted a series of field surveys and laboratory studies to determine whether there was evidence of biotic resistance, as foliar fungal pathogens, in

Full text

Abstract:

Health human resource (HHR) is critical in the delivery of health care services. However, the available evidences on their geographic distribution and availability remain quite limited in the scope of cadres studied, i.e., mostly physicians, and in global reach, i.e., mainly in English-speaking developed countries. This paper aims to bridge this gap in the literature by assessing the supply of a broader set of health care workers in the Philippines, and analyzing the different factors that affect their location decision. Similar to other countries, there are indications that HHRs in the Philip

Abstract:

In this study, we examine the revenue, costs, profits and technical efficiency of chilli farms in Cambodia. We employ a representative sample of 542 chilli farming households from Banteay Meanchey, Battambang, Kampong Chhnang, Kampong Cham, Tboung Khmum and Kandal. The sample was randomly selected using a two-stage stratified sampling design, where villages were chosen in the first stage as the primary sampling unit and households engaged in chilli production were selected in the second stage as the secondary sampling units. The selection of primary sampling units was proportional to the numbe

Abstract:

This paper aims to examine Sri Lanka's environmental licensing system and assess its adequacy for the successful development of offshore wind projects. Sri Lanka has been recognized as an ideal location for offshore renewable energy projects, particularly offshore wind, due to its geographic characteristics as an island with consistent 24-hour wind conditions. This article explores the factors contributing to Sri Lanka's suitability for offshore wind energy and evaluates the current environmental licensing procedures in place. Additionally, it draws on past experiences where inadequate environ

Abstract:

Strengthening the quality of education, science and technology education is one of the four strategic rectangles of Rectangular Strategy Phase IV and at the heart of Cambodia’s ambition to achieve higher-middle-income status by 2030 and high-income status by 2050. To that end, increasing attention has been paid to improving both the quantity and quality of science education from secondary school through higher education. Empirically, it has been demonstrated that upper secondary school science can play a significant role in inspiring students to pursue STEM majors in higher education. Yet, the
