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.

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.

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.

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.

Special Issue “Fabrication and Characterization of Nanostructured Carbon Electrodes”
Nanomaterials, 2023 The nanostructured carbon materials are promising electrode materials and have been widely studied owing to their tailorable structures, which offer large active sites and reduce the path of transport for mass and charge and thus provide fast pathways ...

Organic carbon transport and impacts of human activities in the Yellow River [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2012 Abstract. Based on four field investigations during 2003 and 2009 along the Yellow River mainstream, we examined the distributions, seasonal variations and transport features of organic carbon, with a focus on the impacts of human activities (reservoir construction and regulation scheme).

The Importance of Mesozooplankton Diel Vertical Migration for Sustaining a Mesopelagic Food Web
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 We used extensive ecological and biogeochemical measurements obtained from quasi-Lagrangian experiments during two California Current Ecosystem Long-Term Ecosystem Research cruises to analyze carbon fluxes between the epipelagic and mesopelagic zones ...
