Experimental study on burning rate and flame geometry in construction tunnel fires under high geothermal conditions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...

Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems

Ecography, EarlyView.
Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

Non‐stationary forest responses to hotter droughts: a temporal perspective considering the role of past legacies

Ecography, EarlyView.
Global change is altering forests worldwide, with multiple consequences for ecosystem functioning. Temporal changes in climate, and extreme, compounded weather events like hotter droughts are affecting the demography, composition and function of forests, leading to a highly uncertain future.

Weighing Policy Effectiveness Through Recent Forest Fire Status

Fire
Forest fires pose a great threat to the global ecological environment as well as human life and the safety of property. Formulating effective policies for preventing forest fires is not only a scientific concern but also an urgent need for government ...

Lagged responses in the composition of small mammal communities to a century of climate change

Ecography, EarlyView.
Climate change has widespread effects on the distribution, abundance and behavior of species around the world, leading to the reshuffling of ecological communities. However, it remains unclear whether individual species' range shifts scale up to result in communities whose rate of change lag, lead, or track the rate of climate change. We capitalized on

Long unobserved and recently discovered: towards a better understanding of protected‐area species dynamics using curated species lists

Ecography, EarlyView.
Protected areas are designed to shield populations from harmful human impacts. However, in the face of global climate change, a static approach to conservation within these areas is neither feasible nor desirable. One key measure of ecological change at this scale is the arrival of new species and the local extinction of others. Despite strong interest

Controlled Nanoarchitecture of Aligned Electrospinning Fiber Composite Electrolyte Based on Plant and Animal Biopolymers for Safe Na‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Aligned Electrospun Composite Electrolyte. The resurgence of solid‐state Na+ battery, sustained through lithium deficiency and mounting costs, offers an auspicious alternative to solid‐state Li+ battery. This study introduces a nanoarchitectural approach that integrates electrospinning with a simple solution casting technique to develop a mechanically ...

Spectral entropy variability of intraoperative electrocorticography predicts outcome after epilepsy surgery in people with focal cortical dysplasia

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy surgery in people with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) requires accurate removal of all epileptogenic tissue, and outcome is difficult to predict. We explored whether spectral entropy, a fast computable electroencephalographic (EEG) feature, could estimate epileptic activity in intraoperative electrocorticography (ioECoG) and

Emissions Reductions and Economic Feasibility of China's Solar Thermal Power Industry After the Introduction of Chinese Certified Emission Reduction Policy

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To promote the development of renewable energy, China re‐implemented the Chinese Certified Emission Reduction (CCER) policy in 2023. This study explores certificated CO2 and air pollutants (i.e., NOx, SO2 and particulate matter (PM)) emissions reductions from China's solar thermal power (STP) industry at national scale and conducts the ...
