A Robust Solar Evaporator with Hierarchical Architecture for Ultrahigh Efficiency and Large‐Scale Zero‐Liquid‐Discharge Desalination

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a low‐carbon footprint, robust 3D (three‐dimensional) evaporator featuring multi‐level low‐tortuosity channels for highly efficient desalination. It achieves an outstanding average evaporation rate of 8.1 kg m−2 h−1, salt collection rate of 1.95 kg m−2 h−1, and durability in high‐salinity brine.

Evaluating Feral Swine Eradication and Control Pilot Program Impact on Crop Indemnities

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2018 Farm Bill established the Feral Swine Eradication and Control Pilot Program (FSCP), which was focused on removing feral hogs and restoring damaged property. We conduct a quasi‐experimental analysis of FSCP on crop damage using crop insurance data and a staggered difference‐in‐difference model.
