Picking Losers: Climate Change and Managed Decline in the European Union
ABSTRACT Decarbonization forces societies to cope with the restructuring and outright unwinding of assets, firms, workers, industries, and regions. We argue that this problem has created legitimacy for industrial policies managing the reallocation of resources.

Nutrient Dynamics in a Coupled Terrestrial Biosphere and Land Model (ELM‐FATES‐CNP)
Abstract We present a representation of nitrogen and phosphorus cycling in the Functionally Assembled Terrestrial Ecosystem Simulator, a demographic vegetation model within the Energy Exascale Earth System land model. This representation is modular, and designed to allow testing of multiple hypothetical approaches for carbon‐nutrient coupling in plants.

Estimation of global vehicular methyl bromide emissions: Extrapolation from a case study in Santiago, Chile [PDF]
Between June 1 and June 8, 1996, 144 whole air samples were collected in Santiago, Chile. The temporal and geographical enhancement of CH3Br correlated with incomplete combustion tracers emitted from vehicles during the morning commute.

Performance analysis of air source heat pumps using detailed simulations and comparison to field trial data [PDF]
The take-up of heat pump technologies in the UK domestic sector has lagged far behind other countries in Europe and North America due primarily to the ready availability of cheap natural gas; this has led to the predominance of gas central heating ...

A model of nitrous oxide evolution from soil driven by rainfall events: 2. Model applications [PDF]
Simulations of nitrous oxide (N2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from soils were carried out with a rain-event model of nitrogen and carbon cycling processes in soils (Li et al., this issue).

Variations in the predicted spatial distribution of atmospheric nitrogen deposition and their impact on carbon uptake by terrestrial ecosystems [PDF]
Widespread mobilization of nitrogen into the atmosphere from industry, agriculture, and biomass burning and its subsequent deposition have the potential to alleviate nitrogen limitation of productivity in terrestrial ecosystems, and may contribute to ...
