Opinion: Can uncertainty in climate sensitivity be narrowed further? [PDF]
After many years with little change in community views on equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS), in 2021 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concluded that it was much better known than previously. This development underpinned increased

The biodiversity and ecosystem service contributions and trade-offs of forest restoration approaches
Forest restoration is being scaled up globally to deliver critical ecosystem services and biodiversity benefits; however, there is a lack of rigorous comparison of cobenefit delivery across different restoration approaches.

“Citizens As Analysts” Redux: Revisiting Aaron Wildavsky on Public Participation
In 1979, Aaron Wildavsky published a lengthy paper called “Citizens as Analysts” in which he developed his thoughts on public participation. For today’s scholars and practitioners from the health sector, this paper is intriguing and attractive.

Semiempirical, Hartree-Fock, density functional, and second order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory methods do not accurately predict ionization energies and electron affinities of short- through long-chain [n]acenes [PDF]
Vertical, well-to-well, and adiabatic ionization energies (IEs) and electron affinities (EAs) were calculated for the n=1-10 [n]acenes using a wide range of semiempirical, Hartree-Fock, density functional, and second order Moller-Plesset perturbation ...

A review of the effects of forest fire on soil properties
Forest fires are key ecosystem modifiers affecting the biological, chemical, and physical attributes of forest soils. The extent of soil disturbance by fire is largely dependent on fire intensity, duration and recurrence, fuel load, and soil ...

Canadian Competitiveness in the Health Life Sciences [PDF]
The Canadian federal government’s recently launched Biomanufacturing and Life Sciences Strategy (BLSS) arrives on the scene after several peer countries have been moving quickly, and seriously, with their own health life sciences strategies. While Canada’

Forest microclimates and climate change: Importance, drivers and future research agenda
Forest microclimates contrast strongly with the climate outside forests. To fully understand and better predict how forests' biodiversity and functions relate to climate and climate change, microclimates need to be integrated into ecological research ...

Octanol/water distribution coefficients of the C~1~ through C~7~ perfluoro-n-alkyl sulfonates: Comparison of the IEFPCM-UFF, CPCM, and SMD solvation models [PDF]
The octanol/water distribution coefficients (log D~ow~) of the C~1~ through C~7~ perfluoro-n-alkyl sulfonates (PFSAs) were calculated using the M062X/6-311++G(d,p) and MP2/6-311++G(d,p)//M062X/6-311++G(d,p) levels of theory and the IEFPCM-UFF, CPCM, and ...
