Policy Consequentiality in Tourism Discrete Choice Experiments

Stated preference methods are widely applied in tourism research, yet their validity depends on respondents perceiving surveys as policy consequential. This paper examines how such perceptions shape willingness-to-pay (WTP) estimates for redesigned tourism supply. Using a discret...

Thermohaline gradients and frontal regimes in the northwestern Tropical Atlantic

Multi-omics effect of contaminants exposure during embryogenesis on metamorphosis of blue mussel Mytilus edulis submitted to maritime traffic noise

Anthropogenic underwater noise is now considered one of the ‘emerging threats and ongoing challenges to biodiversity conservation’. Physiological changes have been observed in sessile invertebrates such as bivalves. Bivalve mollusks are of particular interest because of their sen...
