Thermodynamic and Technoeconomic Assessment of a Multigeneration Renewable Energy System for Energy Independence in Gn. Fuvahmulah and L. Gan of Maldives

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The lack of natural energy resources, coupled with the Maldives’ complete dependance on imported electricity, makes sustainable power solutions imperative. This study examines the design and performance of a renewable energy (RE) system for Gn. Fuvahmulah and L. Gan.

Microclimatic Buffering by Front‐Yard Vegetation: Simulation‐Based Assessment of Near‐Façade Environmental Modulation in Urban Houses

Indoor Air, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Residential buildings in low‐vegetation urban areas are increasingly exposed to heat and air–pollution stress, particularly in suburbs with limited canopy cover near traffic and industrial sources. This study investigates how front‐yard vegetation functions as a near‐façade microclimatic buffer, moderating outdoor boundary conditions and providing ...

Local Climate Zone Classification Scheme Can Also Indicate Local-Scale Urban Ventilation Performance: An Evidence-Based Study

Atmosphere, 2020
Studies on urban ventilation indicate that urban ventilation performance is highly dependent on urban morphology. Some studies have linked local-scale urban ventilation performance with the local climate zone (LCZ) that is proposed for surface ...

Sensitivity of Regional WRF‐Chem Air Quality and Weather Simulations to Biomass‐Burning Emission Data Sets: A Case Study of the Impact of Canadian Wildfire on the US

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.
Abstract This study focuses on the period from June 26 to 29, 2023, when record‐breaking Canadian wildfires severely impacted air quality in the Midwest United States. Using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model with Chemistry (WRF‐Chem) and four biomass‐burning data sets (Fire Inventory from NCAR version 1, Fire Inventory from NCAR version 2.5 ...

Increasing Vulnerability of Urban Climate to Recent Climate Change

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 45, Issue 13, 15 November 2025.
Box‐plots (median, upper and lower quartile, maximum, minimum and outliers) of seasonal (DJF, MAM, JJA, SON) hourly temperature differences between the urban Prague–Karlov and rural Doksany stations in the 2003–2023 period. ABSTRACT Recent global warming has intensified the urban heat island (UHI) effect and related temperature impacts in cities.

Black shale deposition during the Early Jurassic: Geochemistry of Pliensbachian and Toarcian sedimentary rocks of the Hunzen Well, Hils Syncline, Northwest German Basin

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1451-1478, November 2025.
Our research uses a multidisciplinary approach, including organic and inorganic geochemistry, biostratigraphy, carbon isotope geochemistry and organic petrography to reconstruct depositional conditions and organic matter accumulation during the Pliensbachian and Toarcian.

Regulating Effects of Blue–Green Spaces on Land Surface Temperature Based on Local Climate Zones: A Case Study of Suzhou (2000–2022)

Land
Rapid urbanization has intensified urban surface thermal stress, yet how blue–green spaces (BGs) are associated with land surface temperature (LST) under different urban morphological contexts remains insufficiently understood.

Identificação de 'Local climate zones' (LCZ's) no concelho do Porto

, 2017
Neste trabalho, propomo-nos a identificar as local climate zones (LCZs) no concelho do Porto e a testar a sua sensibilidade às variações intraurbanas do risco para a saúde dos seres humanos durante episódios extremos de temperatura. Para tal, começamos por identificar as LCZs seguindo a metodologia proposta na plataforma WUDAPT.
