Dissolved noble gases and stable isotopes as tracers of preferential fluid flow along faults in the Lower Rhine Embayment, Germany [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Groundwater in shallow unconsolidated sedimentary aquifers close to the Bornheim fault in the Lower Rhine Embayment (LRE), Germany, has relatively low δ2H and δ18O values in comparison to regional modern groundwater recharge, and 4He concentrations up to

Tuning S Doping in Porous Carbon for Enhanced Initial Coulombic Efficiency and Rate Performance for Sodium/Potassium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Low‐temperature carbonization and sulfur doping increase defect density and tailor surface area, enabling the formation of a thinner, more stable SEI, enhancing rate performance and the ICE. The S/C composite delivers an ICE of 83.1% and 480 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1, retaining 232.6 mAh g−1 at 5 A g−1 for SIBs and achieves a considerable capacity of 439.2 ...

Aquatic and Littoral Successions in Various Post‐Mining Sites—Patterns and Possible Use in Ecological Restoration

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vegetation succession in aquatic and littoral habitats has received much less attention than terrestrial habitats have. We sampled differently aged successional stages at five different types of post‐mining sites, that is, sandpits, stone quarries, clay quarries, brown coal spoil heaps and black coal subsidences, across the Czech Republic ...

Use of Alternative Raw Materials in Coke-Making: New Insights in the Use of Lignites for Blast Furnace Coke Production

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
This paper presents the results of studies on the possibility of using lignite to produce blast furnace coke. The aim of the investigation was to evaluate the influence of lignite addition (direct addition or incorporated into briquettes) on the textural,

The Age and Origin of Block Deposits in the Victorian Alps, Australia

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large periglacial block deposits are found in the mountains of southeastern Australia. Despite their widespread distribution, their mode of formation and age are poorly understood. These landforms hold considerable potential to shed light on the nature of cooling during glacial periods. In this paper we present a new study of block deposits in

Regulation, Taxation, and Resources: Unpacking Greenhouse Gas Emission Drivers Across G7 Economies

open access: yesThunderbird International Business Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced economies are under growing pressure to downscale greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions without undermining growth, yet G7 (Group of Seven) nations, representing almost 10% of the world's population, still generate one quarter of global GHGs.
