Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is an extremely invasive aquatic plant with notable environmental and socioeconomic impacts; however, its unique physicochemical properties offer potential for wastewater treatment through adsorption. This study investigates the acid activation of water hyacinth using acetic, sulphuric, hydrochloric, and ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Greenhushing has emerged as a strategic corporate response to political and regulatory uncertainty, yet less is known about how firms recalibrate previously established sustainability signals when external conditions change. Drawing on signaling theory, this study examines changes in corporate climate and ESG commitments during the political ...

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Governance is a well‐known dimension of adaptive capacity across various frameworks, however specific links between perceptions of governance (il)legitimacy and adaptive capacity remain relatively unexplored. In this study, we investigate connections between climate change adaptation and perceptions of governance (il)legitimacy using focus ...

Historical shifts in Brazilian P. falciparum population structure and drug resistance alleles. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Previous work suggests that Brazilian Plasmodium falciparum has limited genetic diversity and a history of bottlenecks, multiple reintroductions due to human migration, and clonal expansions. We hypothesized that Brazilian P.

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global leadership in phasing out fossil fuels is an important new frontier in climate governance, yet remains undertheorised within existing scholarly accounts of climate leadership. In this paper, we argue that ‘phaseout leadership’—climate leadership centred on curtailing fossil fuel supply—is a distinct kind of leadership that dominant ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This study develops a spatial and technical framework to evaluate hydrokinetic energy potential in the Amazon as a sustainable alternative to diesel‐based systems. By modeling regional resources, we demonstrate that hydrokinetic sources offer a cleaner, economically competitive solution for displacing fossil fuels in remote riverine communities ...
