A Bio‐Inspired Perspective on Materials Sustainability
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This perspective discusses natural materials as inspiration for sustainable engineering designs and the processing of materials. First, circularity, longevity, parsimony, and activity are presented as essential material paradigms. The perspective then uses many examples of natural and technical materials to introduce principles such as oligo ...

Identifying companies and financial actors exposed to marine tipping points [PDF]
arXivClimate change and other anthropogenic pressures are likely to induce tipping points in marine ecosystems, potentially leading to declines in primary productivity and fisheries. Despite increasing attention to nature-related financial risks and opportunities within the ocean economy, the extent to which these tipping points could affect investors has ...

Marine Engineering (a Text-Book) [PDF]
Nature, 1908 MARINE engineering has been developed in many directions during recent years, and the influence of these developments upon the design of steamships has been marked. Within a period of fifteen or sixteen years water-tube boilers have practically taken the place of cylindrical (or “tank”) boilers in all classes of warships; steam-turbines have been ...
