Persistence and potential of soil organic carbon in nature‐based climate solutions: A review of managed disturbances

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Implementing nature‐based climate solutions is important for mitigating climate change, which is a global issue, but requires local adjustments in management practices. Using the association between soil carbon and minerals as a proxy for carbon persistence, we evaluated the effect of different management regimes on soil carbon sequestration and loss ...

A Study on Preventing Thermal Runaway of Contaminated Ammonium Nitrate Prill in Bulk Storage

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of a contaminated region of ammonium nitrate prill undergoing exothermic decomposition, producing gases containing NOx. The interstitial flow of these heated gases rapidly raises the temperature of ammonium nitrate along the flow path.

A Tool for Prioritizing Gravel Augmentation Reaches for Sediment Starved Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gravel augmentation is a widely used restoration technique used to improve habitat below dams, including salmonids spawning habitat. However, gravel augmentation can be cost‐prohibitive, and it is often unclear which stream segments have the highest potential to benefit spawning salmonids.

The Epistemic Generativity of Using a Model of a Big Idea

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Science instruction should involve learners in generating and warranting ideas, what we call epistemic generation. In modeling instruction, epistemic generation should be achieved by coordinating a model structure with the experienced world in reciprocal directions denoted as developing models and using models. In the former, a model structure

Regulatory Framework and Public Policies for Sustainability in the Construction Sector

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study analyzes the role of public policies in promoting socially responsible practices in the construction sector, with a particular focus on their contribution to climate neutrality and the decarbonization of the building stock. European agreements exert increasing pressure to transform the construction sector, reinforcing the transition
