Securing Water in a Changing Climate: A Transient Solar Desalination Model for the Sundarbans, Bangladesh

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents a solar‐powered reverse osmosis (RO) system for the Sundarbans, Bangladesh. Mechanistic modeling reveals a critical seasonal mismatch: during the monsoon, feed water salinity peaks (24.8 ppt) while solar irradiance drops significantly.

A modular and programmable electrolyte platform: Covalently anchored thermochromic hydrogels for on‐demand electrochromic devices

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Developing stable, multifunctional hydrogel electrolytes without compromising performance presents a considerable challenge in the field. In this study, we introduce a material design strategy with broad applicability to combinations of functional polymeric segments, ionic monomers, and salts.

Stripping‐based approach for the recovery of volatile fatty acids from anaerobic digestion digestate: preliminary experimental investigations and modelling

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Volatile fatty acids (VFAs) are widely used across industries: as intermediates in chemical production (e.g., solvents and polymers), in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, and as preservatives and health‐promoting additives in food and animal feed. Emerging applications also include bioplastics, bioenergy, and biotechnology.

Spectral roughness of glaciated bedrock geomorphic surfaces: Implications for glacier sliding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
A microroughness meter (MRM) was used to measure the high-frequency roughness of a number of geomorphic surfaces in the forefield of Glacier de Tsanfleuron, Switzerland.

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...

Ngarrawa (mound spring) sediments as archives of Holocene environmental change in arid central Australia: Insights from Itrax XRF scanning

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Central Australia's ngarrawa, or ‘mound springs’, are unique hydrological systems that serve as some of the only near‐permanent sources of water and continuous sediment deposition in Australia's arid interior. As such, they hold significant potential as palaeo‐climate and ‐environmental archives in a region where many aspects of past climate ...

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 191-228., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Modeling 2m air temperatures over mountain glaciers: Exploring the influence of katabatic cooling and external warming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Air temperature is one of the most relevant input variables for snow and ice melt calculations. However, local meteorological conditions, complex topography, and logistical concerns in glacierized regions make the measuring and modeling of air ...

New constraints on the postglacial evolution of Lago Maggiore, Northern Italy

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lago Maggiore is situated in an overdeepened valley reach at the southern margin of the European Alps, and its thick sediment infill allows the reconstruction of the postglacial valley and lake evolution. We study here the sedimentary succession in the lower Ossola Valley, which is infilled by ~500 m of deposits. In a marginal position, a core
