Carbon sequestration by multiple biological pump pathways in a coastal upwelling biome
Nature Communications, 2023 Multiple processes transport carbon into the deep ocean as part of the biological carbon pump, leading to long-term carbon sequestration. However, our ability to predict future changes in these processes is hampered by the absence of studies that have ...

Active Travel’s Contribution to Climate Change Mitigation: Research Summary and Outlook
Active Travel Studies, 2021 Active travel (walking, cycling or scooting for transport) is considered a healthy and sustainable form of getting from A to B. The net effects of active travel on mobility-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are complex and remarkably under ...

The transport properties of activated carbon fibers [PDF]
Journal of Materials Research, 1991 The transport properties of isotropic pitch-based carbon fibers with surface area 1000 m2/g have been investigated. We report preliminary results on the electrical conductivity, the magnetoresistance, the thermal conductivity, and the thermopower of these fibers as a function of temperature.

Mechanically activated ionic transport across single-digit carbon nanotubes [PDF]
Nature Materials, 2020 Fluid and ionic transport at nanoscale recently highlighted a wealth of exotic behaviours. However, the artificial nanofluidic devices are still far from the advanced functionalities existing in biological systems, such as electrically and mechanically activated transport.

Evidence for late winter biogeochemical connectivity in permafrost soils
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Longer periods of biogeochemical connectivity in soil porewaters with a deeper active layer suggest early organic carbon transport during the dormant season, according to silicon isotope compositions of permafrost soil porewaters in Alaska.

Associations of health, physical activity and weight status with motorised travel and transport carbon dioxide emissions: a cross-sectional, observational study. [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Motorised travel and associated carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions generate substantial health costs; in the case of motorised travel, this may include contributing to rising obesity levels.

Characterization of pyruvate uptake in Escherichia coli K-12. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The monocarboxylate pyruvate is an important metabolite and can serve as sole carbon source for Escherichia coli. Although specific pyruvate transporters have been identified in two bacterial species, pyruvate transport is not well understood in E. coli.

Investigation of carbon nanotube quantum dots connected to ferromagnetic leads [PDF]
, 2015 The implementation of ferromagnetic contacts in complex nanoelectronic devices, e.g. in spin-valves bears great potential for applications and fundamental investigations. Spin-valves are structures with two magnetic contacts and a non-magnetic medium (

Impact of human activities on organic carbon transport in the Yellow River [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Abstract. Using data from four field investigations between 2003 and 2009 along the Yellow River mainstream, we examined the transport features and seasonal variations of organic carbon, with a focus on contrasting the impacts of human activities with those of natural processes.
