The Biofuels Blueprint: Understanding the U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We provide a comprehensive review of the U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), synthesizing nearly two decades of program evolution, market outcomes, and economic analysis. The RFS mandates minimum volumes of renewable fuel blending through a nested structure based on life‐cycle greenhouse gas reductions, enforced via tradeable Renewable ...

Mitochondrial genomes of Meghimatium pictum and Succinea arundinetorum provide insight into the gene order rearrangement within Stylommatophora (Gastropoda, Panpulmonata)

BMC Zoology
In this study, we report the whole mitochondrial genomes of two species, Meghimatium pictum and Succinea arundinetorum, which belong to Stylommatophora, one of the most abundant orders of Gastropoda. The total sizes of M. pictum and S.

Ecological niche modeling reveals habitat differentiation and climatic vulnerability in two imperiled, sympatric southern Appalachian carnivorous plants

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding the habitat requirements of imperiled flora is critical for informing ex situ conservation practices, designing effective reintroduction strategies, and understanding how climate change will impact such species, especially in montane regions with high levels of environmental heterogeneity. In southern Appalachia, USA, the
