The identification and remediation of contaminated sites in Europe is a continuous undertaking that includes different aspects. There are many variables to take into consideration such as the nature of the contaminants, the risks they pose, the location of the site and possible future usages. Also, possible negative effects on the local residents or the environment have to be considered. Within th

Purpose: According to most models of spoken word recognition, listeners probabilistically activate a set of lexical candidates, which is incrementally updated as the speech signal unfolds. Speech carries segmental (speech sound) as well as suprasegmental (prosodic) information. The role of the latter in spoken word recognition is less clear. We investigated how suprasegments (tone and voice qualit

Because of varied topography and landscape heterogeneity，Tianshan Mountain has extremely complex hydrological processes. Considering that the climate change poses a great threat to the water security，it’s necessary to simulate the change of water elements quantitatively and systematically along with elevation. In this study，we applied the modified FLEXG-Δh model to four classic river basins in Tia

Debates about the gendered division of labour tend to focus on negotiation and decision-making by couples in the present, and assume that individuals make rational choices based on present circumstances when deciding questions about workforce engagement, domestic labour and childcare responsibilities. As a result, they overlook the fact that choices made in the present are shaped by past choices.

Purpose: Starting from a power perspective, the study problematizes the prevailing normative and management-dominated view of self-initiated employee ambassadorship on social media. The aim is to provide a more nuanced and critical understanding of the negative aspects of this phenomenon.Design/methodology/approach: The empirical material encompasses qualitative interviews with employees from 14 o

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is one of the largest international astronomy organizations. We present demographic data based on surveys of its members from 2014, 2015 and 2016, during the fourth phase of SDSS (SDSS-IV). We find about half of SDSS-IV collaboration members were based in North America, a quarter in Europe, and the remainder in Asia and Central and South America. Overall, 26%-36

Scale invariance and self-similarity in physics provide a unified framework for classifying phases of matter and dynamical properties near equilibrium in both classical and quantum systems. This paradigm has been further extended to isolated many-body quantum systems driven far from equilibrium, for which the physical observables exhibit dynamical scaling with universal scaling exponents. Universa

Abstract This paper's objective is to bring context and important findings on how foreign direct investments can impact Sub Saharan Africa. Based on previous research and theory data has been collected and gone through several econometric tests to set up two different panel datas: 1. How FDI can impact CO2 emissions. 2. How FDI can impact corruption. The method of this study is designed so

Sustainability and sustainable development are concepts that often appear today in several societal perspectives. Today, companies have increasingly high demands on themselves to promote sustainable business. This has increased awareness of sustainability and something that is currently being debated is how to promote sustainable development through sustainable investments. This essay aimed to inv

To obtain excessive returns on the stock market, investors should be able to effectively forecast what drives the fluctuations of the stock market. The usage of macroeconomic factors as indicators for stock market performances has been utilized more profoundly in recent times. However, the implications of the efficient market hypothesis suggests that such macroeconomic factors cannot be used to pr

This paper examines the relationship between inflation, inequality, and political power. The author argues that the redistributive effect of the inflation tax is a product of four channels: real wages, the balance sheet, debt and fiscal policy. The role of elite bias in politics, and its effect on inflation combating measures is also investigated. One interesting finding is that inflation had a re

This paper discusses the subject of economic growth and energy usage, focusing on a singular renewable energy source. The aim is to investigate the causal relationship between hydropower consumption and economic growth in China over the period 1965-2021. To achieve the aim of the study, the Toda-Yamamoto method for the Granger causality test was deployed. The result reports an absence of statistic
