A Note on the Valuation of Ecosystem Services in Production [PDF]

open access: yes
There has been considerable recent interest in the valuation of ecosystem services. We focus here on the value of such services in the production of market goods.

Ecosystem services of biodiversity in organic grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The use of multi-species mixtures in herbage production can add value in terms of improved conditions for pollinating insects, better resource utilization, carbon sequestration, yield stability, animal health and product quality.

Enhanced Photocatalytic Wastewater Purification and Bacterial Elimination via Copper Ion Irradiation‐Induced Modification of BiOCl

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a copper ion irradiation method to achieve the modification function of BiOCl. By using high‐energy ion beams to introduce impurity ions inside the material, the intrinsic electric field of BiOCl is optimized, promoting the separation of photogenerated carriers and enhancing the photocatalytic activity.

Archetypes of land transformations and trajectories of ecosystem services in mountains. [ID660] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Based on a synthesis of 51 cases of temporal changes in land use and ecosystem services within mountain landscapes, we analyze how changes in land-use intensity influence the supply of ten key services and we describe six typical archetypes. Our analysis

Degradation Mechanism of Phosphate‐Based Li‐NASICON Conductors in Alkaline Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, Volume 15, Issue 11, March 18, 2025.
The presence of water in the cathode of a Li‐air battery shifts reactions to produce LiOH, creating a corrosive, alkaline environment. This study investigates the alkaline stability of the common Li‐NASICON solid‐state conductor chemistries through a systematic experimental study combined with computational modeling to understand the degradation ...

The Private and Public Insurance Value of Conservative Biodiversity Management [PDF]

open access: yes
The ecological literature suggests that biodiversity reduces the variance of ecosystem services. Thus, conservative biodiversity management has an insurance value to risk-averse users of ecosystem services.

Towards Climate Neutrality by 2050: Role of Aluminum for Short‐ and Long‐Term Energy and Hydrogen Storage

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The Aluminum energy storage cycle involves the use of renewable energy for Al production and the generation of heat (dry cycle) and heat and H2 (wet cycle) for energy production via Al‐steam combustion. ABSTRACT Reaching climate neutrality by 2050 requires innovative long‐term energy storage (LTES) solutions beyond the current use of fossil fuels ...

Developing ecosystem service indicators: experiences and lessons learned from sub-global assessments and other initiatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
People depend upon ecosystems to supply a range of services necessary for their survival and well-being. Ecosystem service indicators are critical for knowing whether or not these essential services are being maintained and used in a sustainable manner ...

Influence of Metal Species and Content of Fe‐Ni‐Poly(heptazine imides) on their Properties as Electrocatalysts for Zinc‐Air Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Iron/nickel‐modified poly(heptazine imides) are efficient, low‐cost bifunctional electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction and evolution reactions in aqueous zinc–air batteries. Iron enhances oxygen reduction, while nickel single‐atoms deliver oxygen evolution activity comparable to RuO2.
