Response of hydrological ecosystem services to land-use change and risk assessment in Jiangxi Province, China

Heliyon
Water bodies provide humans with important hydrological ecosystem services (HESs), directly or indirectly. Water yield, water conservation, and soil conservation are essential to HESs.

Engineering Self-adaptive Authorisation Infrastructures

, 2019
As organisations expand and interconnect, authorisation infrastructures become increasingly difficult to manage. Several solutions have been proposed, including self-adaptive authorisation, where the access control policies are dynamically adapted at run-time to respond to misuse and malicious behaviour. The ultimate goal of self-adaptive authorisation

High Performance Zn–Mn Cement Batteries for the Next Generation of Buildings

Nano-Micro Letters
Highlights Conventional cementitious materials were engineered into active cementitious separators (ACSs) that function as capacity boosters rather than passive carriers, significantly enhancing the capacity of Zn–Mn batteries. Continously generated zinc

Global Dataset of Extreme Sea Levels and Coastal Flood Impacts over the 21st Century

Data
A global database of coastal flooding impacts resulting from extreme sea levels is developed for the present day and for the years 2050 and 2100. The database consists of three sub-datasets: the extreme sea levels, the coastal areas flooded by these ...
