Advanced Functional Materials for Marine Energy Utilization
Interdisciplinary Materials, EarlyView.Marine renewable energy is an important future clean energy supply. We construct and sort out the material system for marine energy capture and conversion, transmission, storage, and utilization for the first time. ABSTRACT Several features of marine energy, including large reserves, sustainable utilization, environmental friendliness, make it a ...

Navigating ESG in the Artificial Intelligence Era: Evidence From AI Pilot Zones in China
International Studies of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence is reshaping business models, but limited literature explores how ESG evolves in the AI era. This paper regards AI Pilot Zones in China as a quasi‐natural experiment, and adopts the DID approach to investigate its impact on corporate ESG performance. Using the sample of Chinese A‐share listed companies from 2016 to 2022,

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has been shown to be effective for surveying and monitoring dams, due to the method's sensitivity to moisture content and relevant physical properties (e.g., porosity). Automated ERT systems, capable of time‐lapse monitoring, can be used to detect variations in ground conditions.
