Climate change: a ‘glocal’ problem requiring ‘glocal’ action [PDF]
Environmental Sciences, 2007 Abstract It is generally assumed that global problems like climate change call for global solutions, which are then implemented at different administrative levels. This paper attempts to deconstruct climate change in physical terms to assess its global through to local characteristics, presents existing policy frameworks at different levels, and then ...

Flattening Energy Puddles for Enhanced Charge Transport in Wrinkled WSe2
Small, EarlyView.Strain‐inducing wrinkles in 1L‐WSe2 create carrier‐trapping energy puddles. Trioctylphosphine selenide (TOPSe) selectively passivates Se vacancies at these wrinkle sites, while steric hindrance suppresses basal‐plane reaction. Comprehensive suite of space‐resolved spectroscopic techniques reveals reduced nonradiative recombination, longer exciton ...
