Spatial distribution of surface forest fuel in the Slovak Republic

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2018
Forest fires represent a real danger not only for countries situated in the tropic and subtropic zones, but the fire danger is more and more actual also in moderate climate zones, particularly due to continuous climate change consequences.

Influence of changes in meteorological conditions on the moisture content of dead fine fuel in the mixed pine forest [PDF]

open access: yesKošická bezpečnostná revue, 2021
The moisture content of fine fuels is one of the key indicators for assessing the danger of forest fires. It is the most critical factor influencing the ignitability of vegetation and fire behaviour.

Harvesting forest biomass reduces wildfire fuel [PDF]

open access: yesCalifornia Agriculture, 1996
Years of drought, tree mortality due to insects and the successful suppression of forest fires over the past century have created dense stands of trees and shrubs. This buildup is potentially dangerous as a reservoir of fuel for uncontrollable wildfires in California forests.

A software tool for accurate assessment of costs and CO2 emissions in wood transport using OpenStreetMap© [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Costs and environmental impacts are key elements in forest logistics and they must be integrated in forest decision-making. The evaluation of transportation fuel costs and carbon emissions depend on spatial and non-spatial data but in many cases the ...

Stage‐Specific Roles of Deep Eutectic Solvents in Recycling of Spent Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) offer tunable acidity, redox, and coordination properties for selective recycling of spent lithium‐ion battery cathodes. Through co‐dissolution, single‐ and two‐metal separations, DESs enable sustainable recovery of critical metals for closed‐loop regeneration of battery‐grade materials, advancing a circular economy for ...

Costs of Creating Carbon Offset Credits via Forestry Activities: A Meta-Regression Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
The main focus of efforts to mitigate climate change is on the avoidance of fossil fuel emissions. However, the Kyoto rules permit the use of forestry activities that create carbon offset credits.

THE ECOLOGICAL IMPACT OF TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
There is a long-standing debate over whether new roads unavoidably lead to environmental damage, especially forest loss, but causal identification has been elusive.

Deciphering Intricacies in Directional CO2 Conversion From Electrolysis to CO2 Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This review will delve into the inherent connections and distinctions of CO2‐directed conversion in ECO2RR and CO2 batteries, in terms of product types, catalyst selection, catalytic mechanisms, and electrochemical performances, while proposing a benchmarking framework for the evaluation of CO2 batteries and innovative CO2 battery configurations for ...
