Naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) in energy production sectors: exposure, effective doses and regulatory challenges

Environment International
The oil and gas industry, coal mining, and coal-fired power plants, as well as geothermal energy plants, have been investigated in the past with respect to various aspects of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM). However, existing assessments

Green Transition, Extractive Continuities: Lithium Mining and the Environmental Contradictions of Sustainability

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global decarbonization has positioned lithium as a strategic mineral for electric vehicles, battery storage, and low‐carbon development. Yet its extraction raises serious environmental, political, and justice concerns that complicate dominant narratives of clean energy progress.

CEO Tenure, CEO Gender Diversity, and the Quality of Carbon Reporting: Empirical Evidence From New Zealand

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study examines whether and how Chief Executive Officer (CEO) tenure and gender diversity influence the quality of carbon reporting (QCR), an increasingly significant dimension of non‐financial reporting in the era of climate change risk.

The Earth's Greatest Porous Media

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract How deeply does modern meteoric water circulate into the continental crust? How deep is the Earth's Critical Zone (CZ), the top layer of the continental lithosphere that co‐evolves with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, extending from vegetation canopy down to fresh bedrock and the base of active groundwater circulation?

From Legacy Gas Fields to Hydrogen Storage: 3D Seismic-Driven Geological Modelling and Dynamic Simulation in the Northern Upper Rhine Graben

Energies
The Upper Rhine Graben (URG) has been a key area for subsurface energy activities for decades, with a focus on hydrocarbons during the mid- to late 1900s and a gradual shift toward energy transition applications such as geothermal energy and, potentially

A Triassic chronostratigraphic and palaeogeographic framework for the Utsira High area, northern North Sea: Reconstructing a basin‐scale drainage divide

Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2417-2453, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The Triassic succession of the northern North Sea comprises a series of interbedded sandstones, mudstones and conglomerates deposited under a fluctuating arid to semi‐humid climate regime, which are often difficult to correlate regionally due to differing lithostratigraphic schemes and poor age control. Despite existing regional studies on the

Barriers to Steel Decarbonization

steel research international, Volume 97, Issue 9, Page 4415-4437, September 2026.
Main identified barriers to steel decarbonization Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are a leading contributor to global climate change, necessitating urgent mitigation strategies. While various metrics—such as total national emissions, per‐capita output, and historical contributions—define responsibility, determining accountability remains complex ...

Research Priorities for Robust Climate Assessments in the United States

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Scientific assessments play a critical role in synthesizing evidence to support evidence‐based decision‐making in many sectors and topics. For climate change, large‐scale assessments like the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the United States (U.S.) National Climate Assessment (NCA) reports help many different users—from ...

Distinct Groundwater Regimes in West Antarctic Sedimentary Basins Inferred From Magnetotelluric Imaging

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Subglacial sedimentary basins in Antarctica are hypothesized to modulate ice flow and biogeochemical cycles via groundwater and geothermal feedbacks, yet their properties remain poorly constrained. Here, we present a joint quantitative analysis of new magnetotelluric (MT) data acquired at Thwaites Glacier (TG) and WAIS Divide, alongside legacy

Porous and Permeable Crystalline Basement: Evidence for Large‐Scale Hydraulic Connectivity at Kivetty, Finland

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Porosity and permeability in crystalline shield basement are commonly assumed to be low, yet some fault zones sustain fluid circulation over kilometer scales. Here we quantify multiscale fault‐zone connectivity at Kivetty, central Finland, by integrating legacy deep‐borehole data, including packer tests, downhole logs, and a long‐term multi ...
