A database of hourly wind speed and modeled generation for US wind plants based on three meteorological models

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
In 2022, wind generation accounted for ~10% of total electricity generation in the United States. As wind energy accounts for a greater portion of total energy, understanding geographic and temporal variation in wind generation is key to many planning ...

Carbon emission from Western Siberian inland waters

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Rivers and lakes are thought to be a major conduit of loss for the massive amounts of carbon locked away in high-latitude systems, but such losses are poorly constrained.

Ideas and perspectives: Alleviation of functional limitations by soil organisms is key to climate feedbacks from arctic soils [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2023
Arctic soils play an important role in Earth's climate system, as they store large amounts of carbon that, if released, could strongly increase greenhouse gas levels in our atmosphere.

Towards reducing the high cost of parameter sensitivity analysis in hydrologic modeling: a regional parameter sensitivity analysis approach [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2023
Land surface models have many parameters that have a spatially variable impact on model outputs. In applying these models, sensitivity analysis (SA) is sometimes performed as an initial step to select calibration parameters.

Gender Gaps in Mode Usage, Vehicle Ownership, and Spatial Mobility When Entering Parenthood: A Life Course Perspective

open access: yesSystems, 2023
Entry into parenthood is a major disruptive event to travel behavior, and gender gaps in mobility choices are often widened during parenthood. The exact timing of gender gap formation and their long-term effects on different subpopulations are less ...

Microgrid Environmental Impact

open access: yes2020 6th IEEE International Energy Conference (ENERGYCon), 2020
Les centrales électriques ont de mauvais impacts sur l'environnement. L'un de ces impacts est l'émission de dioxyde de carbone (CO2) résultant des centrales électriques qui dépendent des combustibles fossiles, du pétrole et du gaz naturel. L'énergie renouvelable est considérée comme une solution importante à ce problème car elle est classée comme une ...

Environmental Impacts—Coastal Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This chapter examines the impacts of climate change on the natural coastal ecosystems in the North Sea region. These comprise sandy shores and dunes and salt marshes in estuaries and along the coast. The chapter starts by describing the characteristic geomorphological features of these systems and the importance of sediment transport.

Dissolved organic matter regulates nutrient limitation and growth of benthic algae in northern lakes through interacting effects on nutrient and light availability

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, 2020
Widespread increases in dissolved organic matter (DOM) concentration across northern lakes can alter rates of primary production by increasing nutrient availability and decreasing light availability.
