A Thermal Plume Model for the Martian Convective Boundary Layer [PDF]

, 2013
The Martian Planetary Boundary Layer [PBL] is a crucial component of the Martian climate system. Global Climate Models [GCMs] and Mesoscale Models [MMs] lack the resolution to predict PBL mixing which is therefore parameterized.

Prediction of Energy Consumption and Energy Savings in an Urban Vertical Farm Benchmark

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This research conducted a comprehensive energy consumption analysis of a vertical farm benchmark integrating cultivation, storage, transportation and office functions. It proposed the adoption of small‐scale wind turbines to reduce energy expenditure, hence addressing various sustainability development goals.

Off‐Grid Solar Systems: An Experimental Work and Systematic Techno‐Economic Analysis

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
In the study mentioned above, experimental monitoring and economic evaluation of two off‐grid PV systems were conducted using a low‐cost data logger. The results suggest that basic DC systems are economically feasible compared to grid power, but that AC systems require further cost‐cutting to achieve financial viability.

Experimental and Numerical Study on Enhancing the Performance of a Stepped Solar Still Using Porous Sponge Materials

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Three designs were built and tested: a single‐slope still, a six‐stepped still, and a six‐stepped still with 5 mm sponge sheets. The novelty lies in fixing porous sponge sheets to the vertical faces of the steps. Yield of freshwater and instantaneous efficiency were determined in various combinations, that is, base, stepped, and stepped‐cum‐sponge ...

Climatic effects of 1950-2050 changes in US anthropogenic aerosols - Part 2: Climate response [PDF]

, 2012
We investigate the climate response to changing US anthropogenic aerosol sources over the 1950–2050 period by using the NASA GISS general circulation model (GCM) and comparing to observed US temperature trends.

Integrating Remote Sensing and Machine Learning for Enhanced Surface Urban Heat Island Analysis and Its Impact on Building Energy Demand

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Satellite (MODIS) mapping links Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity to city‐scale energy demand—higher daytime cooling demand and altered nighttime heating demand—supporting targeted mitigation and planning. ABSTRACT This study examines the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect on building energy consumption in Tehran from 1998 to 2024, utilizing MODIS

Amino‐functionalized lanthanide metal‐organic frameworks encapsulating boron‐doped graphene quantum dots: A paper based fluorescent sensor to visual detection of salicylic acid

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Salicylic acid (SA), a widely distributed environmental pollutant, requires accurate detection for effective water quality monitoring and ecological protection. In this work, we developed a highly sensitive fluorescent sensor by encapsulating boron‐doped graphene quantum dots (B‐GQDs) within amino‐functionalized lanthanum‐based metal‐organic ...

Projected Warming of the Southern Ocean Disrupts Embryonic Development and Hatch Timing in Antarctic Fish

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Embryos are particularly sensitive to thermal challenge. Antarctic fish embryos raised at projected Southern Ocean temperatures hatch during the winter, have a high incidence of morphological abnormalities, have shorter body lengths, and express genes indicative of cellular stress.
