Study of Damage to Shutters Exposed to a Vegetation Fire: Definition of Vulnerability Thresholds
ABSTRACT This study examines the fire behavior of wooden, PVC, and aluminum shutters through laboratory and large‐scale experiments. Laboratory tests were conducted using a cone calorimeter to assess the ignitability of the PVC and wooden shutters, focusing on the critical heat flux of ignition, ignition time and critical Flux Time Product (FTP ...

Pollinator risks and recovery from air pollutant interactions during the fossil‐fuel transition
By altering the composition and concentration of floral scents, air pollutants such as ozone (O3) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) disrupt the ability of insect pollinators to locate flowers, threatening biodiversity and crop production. We examine the impact of these pollutants on pollinator performance and evaluate the short‐ and long‐term consequences of ...

ABSTRACT Long‐term economic analyses of variable rate irrigation (VRI) strategies were performed compared with uniform irrigation management (UIM) in a reference production field using the AquaCrop model. Five strategies to trigger irrigation were as follows: (Field Capacity‐VRI, Driest Soil Trigger‐VRI, Water Mining‐VRI, Conventional Uniform ...
