What's in the Bin? A Waste Audit of an Australian Tertiary Ear, Nose and Throat Outpatient Clinic

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Healthcare contributes 4.4% of global emissions. Climate change contributes to vector‐borne diseases, food insecurity and morbidity and mortality associated with extreme weather. Ear, nose and throat (ENT) outpatient clinics are particularly resource intensive, yet their environmental impact has not been quantified.

Low GWP Refrigerants for Air Conditioning Applications

open access: yes, 2014
Refrigerants with low environmental impact have been developed as replacements for R22 and R410A in air conditioning applications. L-20 and L-41 have been evaluated in representative residential equipment. This study discusses the performance at high ambient temperatures (warm climate) and potential design changes.

Genomic and Physiological Insights Into Heat–Drought Tolerance in Wheat Through GWAS and Phenotypic Evaluation

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change‐driven heat and drought stresses during reproductive stages significantly threaten wheat productivity. To investigate the genetic and physiological basis of combined heat–drought (HD) tolerance, we evaluated 345 wheat genotypes under three environments of HD stresses, non‐stress glasshouse conditions and a late‐sowing field ...

Properties of Polyol Esters for Low GWP Refrigerants

open access: yes, 2021
HFC (Hydrofluorocarbon) refrigerants, whose ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) is 0, are used in refrigeration and air conditioning equipments recently. It is known that HFCs are high GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerants. In October 2016, Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol was stated to achieve the phase-down of HFC refrigerants to prevent ...
