Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Les accrus de frêne dans les Pyrénées Centrales : un avenir énergétique local ?

open access: yesRevue de Géographie Alpine, 2012
While the agricultural economy of Central Pyrenean is steadily declining, natural forest stands progress on agricultural mountainous meadows. For these forest extensions, we define the economic conditions of a new fuel-wood local economy.

Forest Fires in the Chilean Forest Economy

open access: yesThe Forestry Chronicle, 1969
A brief history of forest fires in Chile has been given with emphasis on the changing outlook concerning forest fires. This has led to the realization of their destructive force and long term effects. The factors which contributed to this change in outlook have been mentioned and the protective methods presently employed in Chile described.

Single‐ and Dual‐Atom Configurations in Atomically Dispersed Catalysts for Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Single‐atom and dual‐atom‐based atomically dispersed catalysts (ADCs) effectively address the shuttle effect and sluggish redox kinetics in Li–S batteries. With nearly 100% atomic utilization and tunable coordination environments, ADCs enhance LiPSs adsorption, lower conversion barriers, and accelerate sulfur redox reactions.

US Forest Products in the Global Economy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Forestry, 2016
The United States’ shares of global industrial roundwood production and derivative products have declined precipitously since the 1990s. We evaluate the extent of these declines compared with those of major producing countries from 1961 to 2013. We find that the US global share of industrial roundwood peaked at 28% in 1999 but by 2013 was at 17%, with ...
