Mixing Accounts for More Than Half of Biogeochemical Changes Along Mode Water Ventilation Pathways by M. Jutras, S. M. Bushinsky, I. Cerovečki, N. Briggs

“…Using observations, we trace their subduction pathways and biogeochemical evolution. Solving modified mixing equations that account for respiration reveals that less than 50% of the oxygen changes along mode water ventilation pathways are due to respiration within the water mass, the rest being due to mixing with oxygen‐poorer surrounding waters. …”

Comparative Analysis of the Relationship Between Workforce Demand and Digitalization at Company Level in Romania and Germany by Adina-Maria Voda

“…We use correlation statistical analysis of the data collected in 2018 by Eurofound through the European Company Survey (ECS 2019) to analyze the effects of technology on workforce demand in Romania and Germany and to compare the two countries in terms of digitalization and employment evolution. Although at first glance the substitution effect suggests a significant risk of job loss due to digitalization, the analysis of data obtained from the ECS 2019 survey at the company level in Romania highlights the opposite. …”
