Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Comparison of hydrocarbon generation, expulsion periods, and accumulation periods of source rocks in Member 7 of the Yanchang Formation in the Jinghe Oilfield, southern Ordos Basin

地质科技通报
Objective Commercial oil accumulation in the Jinghe Oilfield of the Southwest Ordos Basin was primarily found in the Northeast area. Previous studies have shown that oil mainly sourced from the oil shale in Member 7 of the Yanchang Formation.

Are Ecosystems the Missing Link in Circular Transitions? Insights From a Comprehensive Literature Analysis

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although recent literature on the circular economy (CE) has highlighted the important role of ecosystems, there is still limited understanding of the main themes that characterize circular ecosystems. This study addresses this gap by combining a comprehensive topic modeling analysis employing latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) with a systematic

Bis‐Dichlorosilyl Functionalized C4‐Cumulene With Unique Bonding Scenario

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Herein, we report a silylene‐functionalized C4‐cumulene (2) and investigate its bonding scenario employing computational methods such as NBO analysis, AIM, and energy decomposition analysis‐natural orbital for chemical valence (EDA‐NOCV). The EDA‐NOCV analysis showed that compound 2 prefers to possess electron‐sharing covalent sigma and dative covalent

Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Biodegradability studies and contact phase trials towards a cleaner environment

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process, developed in our previous study, is used for septic wastewater treatment. This high‐rate contact stabilization pre‐treatment uses typical waste streams found in wastewater treatment plants to reduce a portion of the loadings on the main treatment trains.

Transient thermal modelling of green anode cooling in the aluminium industry

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Summary of the methodology. Abstract Anodes, which are used in electrolytic aluminium production, are made by mixing dry aggregate (petroleum coke, rejected anodes, and butts) with coal tar pitch, compacting the resulting paste (green anode), and baking (baked anode). After compaction, the anodes are cooled to maintain their structural integrity before

Post‐LECA Origin and Diversification of an Axonemal Outer Arm Dynein Motor

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dyneins were present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor (LECA) and play key roles in eukaryotic biology. Axonemal dyneins form the inner and outer arms that power ciliary beating, and it has long been recognized that outer arms in some organisms contain two different heavy chain motors, whereas those from other species contain a third unit

Critical Discourse Analysis in Corporate Reports: Legitimation Strategies in the Context of Environmental Controversies

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the use of environmental disclosure as a strategic tool to manage legitimacy crises in a mining company, adopting critical discourse analysis (CDA) as the main methodology. Focusing on a case of environmental disaster, this research reveals how corporate narratives can be manipulated to minimize responsibility and reinforce
