Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

Hydrogeochemistry and Heat Accumulation of a Mine Geothermal System Controlled by Extensional Faults

open access: yesEnergies
Given the high proportion of global fossil energy consumption, the Ordovician karst water in the North China-type coalfield, as a green energy source that harnesses both water and heat, holds significant potential for mitigating environmental issues ...

South Africa's geothermal energy hotspots inferred from subsurface temperature and geology

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2017
South Africa intends to mitigate its carbon emissions by developing renewable energy from solar, wind and hydro, and investigating alternative energy sources such as natural gas and nuclear. Low-enthalpy geothermal energy is becoming increasingly popular

A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...

Deep Geothermal Resources with Respect to Power Generation Potential of the Sinian–Cambrian Formation in Western Chongqing City, Eastern Sichuan Basin, China

open access: yesEnergies
The Rongchang–Dazu region in western Chongqing (eastern Sichuan Basin, China), known for its seismic activity, is a promising area for deep geothermal resource development; however, practical development is limited. Key geological understandings, such as

Geothermal gradient and heat flow data in and around Japan (I): Appraisal of heat flow from geothermal gradient data [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2014
We published a CD-ROM “Geothermal Gradient and Heat Flow Data in and around Japan” (Tanaka et al., 2004a), which includes values of heat flow and geothermal gradient data. This compilation was intended to improve the understanding of variations in the thermal regime in and around Japan.

Measuring Corporate Energy Transition Through Web‐Based Evidence and Large Language Models

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a scalable method to measure firm‐level engagement with the energy transition using corporate website disclosures and large language models (LLMs). We construct a restrictive, policy‐aligned rubric that codes evidence of (i) energy efficiency improvements, (ii) decarbonization and emissions‐reduction strategies, and (iii ...

Geothermal gradients in British lake sediments [PDF]

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, 1977
Temperatures have been measured in the water and sediments of Loch Ness and Windermere to investigate the possibility of determining the geothermal heat flow through the bottom of deep British lakes. The accuracy is limited by corrections for annual and long term variations in bottom water temperatures.In Loch Ness (max depth 232 m) the annual ...

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.
