Plastics in dermatology: A review and solutions
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 1715-1724, October 2025.This review explores the environmental and health impacts of plastics, particularly microplastics in dermatological products. It discusses the plastic life cycle, routes of exposure, health risks and provides science‐based recommendations to reduce plastic use in dermatology.

Backyard Politics, National Policies: Understanding the Opportunity Costs of National Fracking Bans [PDF]
, 2013 Some local communities in the United States, particularly in the Northeast, are scrambling to oppose natural gas production enabled by hydraulic fracturing (or fracing, fracking, or hydrofracking) in shale formations.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract The seismicity inside the Sichuan Basin in southwest China has been dramatically intensified with the increase of shale gas exploitation recently. On 8 September 2019, an MW 5.0 earthquake struck Weiyuan County in the Sichuan Basin, representing the largest earthquake in the Weiyuan shale gas field.

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2023 Conventional hydraulic fracturing techniques typically consume large amounts of water when producing shale gas. Fracking fluids may cause environmental pollution. In contrast, supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) (above 31.8°C, 7.29 MPa) can displace CH4

Word choice matters: Comment on Stoutenborough et al. 2016, ‘Is “fracking” a new dirty word?’ [PDF]
, 2016 Stoutenborough et al. (2016) recently published an article in Energy Research and Social Science with data to show that use of the term ‘fracking’ versus ‘hydraulic fracturing’ matters little with regards to the level of concern elicited by this form of ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2025.Abstract Fractures evolve in time through thermal‐hydraulic‐mechanical‐chemical (THMC) processes that alter their long‐range hydraulic transport properties and modify subsurface behavior and activities. The location of subsurface fractures makes it necessary to use remote sensing techniques such as passive or active seismic monitoring for fracture ...

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 23, Issue 8, Page 562-577, August 2025.Marine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is one of the largest reservoirs of fixed carbon on Earth, and its cycling contributes to ocean productivity and carbon storage. Despite its central role, efforts to characterize DOC reactivity and cycling in aquatic systems have been hampered by low recovery during isolation.
