ABSTRACT Over the past few decades, the intensification of global warming has brought increased attention to urban thermal dynamics, particularly regarding Land Surface Temperature (LST) and the Urban Surface Heat Island (SUHI) effect. This study conducts a systematic literature review alongside a bibliometric analysis of 123 peer‐reviewed articles ...

ABSTRACT East Africa has recorded strong economic growth over the past three decades alongside a steady rise in carbon emissions, raising concerns about whether the region can sustain growth without worsening environmental pressures. This study incorporates key macroeconomic drivers of carbon emissions using panel data for 9 countries from 1990 to 2023,

ABSTRACT This article examines whether economic growth reduces inequalities in access to water and sanitation across 64 countries over an average period of 13.5 years. Drawing on disaggregated data by income quintiles and rural–urban location, and employing ordinary least squares (OLS), two‐stage least squares (2SLS), and Seemingly Unrelated Regression

ABSTRACT Education is a cornerstone of sustainable development, yet large disparities in access persist across and within countries—particularly in Africa, where millions remain underserved. Among several factors influencing educational participation, physical accessibility to schools (in terms of travel time) is not comprehensively understood ...

Abstract Research Summary Entrepreneurship accelerators are increasingly promoted as structural interventions to close gender gaps, yet studies have not established a differential impact of participation for women. This prior evidence—drawn from high‐tech, male‐dominated settings—may overlook how outcomes differ in more feminized domains such as social

Gas Quenching‐Mediated Crystallization for Optoelectronic‐Grade Pb–Sn Perovskite Films
Gas quenching (GQ) is introduced as a simple, ecofriendly alternative to antisolvent quenching for Sn–Pb perovskites. By slowing crystallization, GQ produces smoother, more uniform films with fewer pinholes. The method enhances reproducibility and device performance, increasing power conversion efficiency from 18.3% to 19.1% and improving open‐circuit ...

Carbazole‐based self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) have proven effective as HTLs in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the energy alignment with narrow‐bandgap lead‐tin (Pb‐Sn) perovskites is suboptimal. Here, we design four phenoxazine/phenothiazine SAMs.

Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review
ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

ABSTRACT The present study has investigated two objectives. First, it examines the unconditional impact of economic policy uncertainty (EPU) on Africa's structural transformation. Second, it explores the conditional role of human resource development in the nexus between economic policy uncertainty (EPU) and structural transformation.
