Entomogenic Climate Change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Rapidly expanding insect populations, deforestation, and global climate change threaten to destabilize key planetary carbon pools, especially the Earth's forests which link the micro-ecology of insect infestation to climate.

The Dimensional Revolution of Phosphorus: From Allotropicity to Battery System Applications

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Phosphorus‐based materials are promising high‐capacity anodes classified by dimension (0D–3D) to systematically explore their properties and composite strategies. When combined with materials such as carbon to form heterostructures, the electrical conductivity and stability are effectively enhanced.

Computationally Driven Advances in Cu‐CNT On‐Chip Interconnect Materials: From First Principles to Machine Learning

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A multiscale framework integrating electronic, mechanical, and thermal analysis with machine learning to optimize carbon nanotube interconnects. As the component dimensions in integrated circuits shrink to extreme scales, the complexity of interconnect systems is increasing significantly, necessitating an urgent and comprehensive upgrade of ...

By‐product of heparin extraction as a sustainable alternative to enhance the use of nitrogen in agriculture

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates the potential of a new organic fertilizer derived from porcine intestinal mucosa (designated BHE), a by‐product of the heparin extraction process, as a sustainable nitrogen (N) source for agriculture. The work was conducted in two stages: (i) chemical and spectroscopic characterization of BHE compared with poultry litter ...

EU Peatlands: Current Carbon Stocks and Trace Gas Fluxes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Peatlands in Europe has formed a significant sink for atmospheric CO2 since the last glacial maximum. Currently they are estimated to hold ca. 42 Gt carbon in the form of peat and are therefore a considerable component in the European carbon budget.

Recent Advances in Conjugated Microporous Polymers for Photocatalysis: Mechanism, Synthesis and Applications

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) have attracted more and more attention as new photocatalysts due to their unique advantages such as high performance, long stability and strong light absorption. This review summarizes the application of CMPs as a photocatalyst in recent years and introduces the catalytic mechanism.

MODELING THE EFFECT OF UNCERTAINTY ON TIMBER HARVEST: A SUGGESTED APPROACH AND EMPIRICAL EXAMPLE [PDF]

open access: yes
A method is suggested for modeling uncertainty when there is a lack of information concerning the effect of forest management decisions on tree growth. Dynamic programming is used to investigate the optimality of alternative management strategies.

Optimal forest rotation age under efficient climate change mitigation

open access: yes, 2015
This paper considers the optimal rotation of forests when the carbon flows of forest growth and harvest are priced with an increasing price. Such an evolution of carbon price is generally associated with economically efficient climate change mitigation ...
