The designation of geothermal subzones in Hawaii

open access: yes, 1985
The issue of maintaining a balance between economic development and preservation of the environment is a major concern in Hawaii, which in 1961 became the first state in the nation to adopt sweeping statewide rand use controls. Hawaii suffers from a very

Helium in fumarole and well gases as an index of long-term geothermal potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
We have used fumaroles and degassing vents around Kilauea volcano as models of producing geothermal areas. Excess helium has been found in gases from fumaroles characterized by long-term activity, and is absent in gases from short-lived hot spots, from ...

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Rock mechanical properties under reconstructed deep in situ thermo–hydro–mechanical conditions: Implications for CO₂‐related injection scenarios

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates a reconstructed in situ thermo‐hydro‐mechanical (THM) framework in which porosity serves as the central variable linking stress, pore pressure, and temperature to evolving mechanical properties of rocks. Under burial conditions, in situ stress, pore pressure, and temperature jointly govern volumetric strain and ...

New‐Generation Integrated Devices: Multiple‐Energy Utilization and Integration Systems Based on Perovskite Photovoltaics

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review highlights emerging integrated energy systems based on perovskite photovoltaics, including PSC–thermoelectric, photovoltaic–electrochemical, self‐charging, and building‐integrated architectures. By coupling multiple energy conversion and storage pathways, these multifunctional platforms enable enhanced solar utilization, improved stability,

Towards Transformative Climate Governance: Capacities and Constraints for Local Government in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An emerging consensus calls for transformative climate governance. However, what instigates and sustains transformative pathways remains unclear. This study characterises the existence, quality and structural underpinnings of transformative governance capacities in local government climate change response in Aotearoa New Zealand, applying a ...
