Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

An overview of the theta - S correlations in Fram Strait based on the MIZEX 84 data

Oceanologia, 2002
The water masses in Fram Strait have been analyzed on the basis of hydrographic casts taken in summer 1984 during the MIZEX 84 experiment. In particular, theta-S diagrams for 16 areas, each 5o in longitude and 1o in latitude, covering the strait from ...

PondNet – towards a global network of experiments on the effects of climate change on aquatic ecosystems

Ecography, EarlyView.
Global change is reshaping the distribution of biodiversity and the functioning of ecosystems. Predicting the long‐term consequences of such changes remains a challenge due to a need for a clear understanding of the mechanisms underpinning ecosystem‐level responses, as well as the role of geographical and environmental contingencies.

Estimation of mineral dust direct radiative forcing at the European Aerosol Research Lidar NETwork site of Lecce, Italy, during the ChArMEx/ADRIMED summer 2013 campaign: Impact of radiative transfer model spectral resolutions [PDF]

, 2016
© 2016. American Geophysical UnionA field campaign took place in the western and central Mediterranean basin on June–July 2013 in the framework of the ChArMEx (Chemistry-Aerosol Mediterranean Experiment, http://charmex.lsce.ipsl.fr/)/ADRIMED (Aerosol ...

From distant shores to an emerging island: the role of surface and subsurface transport in modeling seed dispersal

Ecography, EarlyView.
Long‐distance seed dispersal by ocean currents plays a critical role in structuring coastal plant communities. As direct observations of this phenomenon are infeasible, numerical modeling is a valuable tool. Here, we use Lagrangian particle tracking to examine the colonization of the newly forming island Norderoogsand (German Bight, Wadden Sea) by five

Atmospheric occurrence, transport and deposition of polychlorinated biphenyls and hexachlorobenzene in the Mediterranean and Black seas [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014
The Mediterranean and Black seas are unique marine environments subject to important anthropogenic pressures due to direct and indirect loads of atmospheric inputs of organochlorine compounds (OCls) from primary and secondary sources.

Impact of penetrative solar radiation on the diagnosis of water mass transformation in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2008
We applied a revised diagnosis of water mass formation and mixing to a 1/8° resolution ocean model of the Mediterranean Sea. The diagnosis method used and presented by Iudicone et al. (2008) is similar to that developed by Walin (1982) and applied to the Mediterranean Sea by Tziperman and Speer (1994), to which we added a penetrative solar radiation ...

Nanofiber PVA‐Based Membranes Incorporating Functionalized Spanish Broom Derivatives for Sustainable Water Purification

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study investigates Spanish broom (Spartium junceum) as a renewable source for electrospun composite membranes in sustainable water purification. MCC and biochar were functionalized with eco‐friendly precursors and nanomaterials (i.e., HNT, β‐CDs) to develop hybrid PVA nanofiber composites.

Along-Path Evolution of Biogeochemical and Carbonate System Properties in the Intermediate Water of the Western Mediterranean

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
A basin-scale oceanographic cruise (OCEANCERTAIN2015) was carried out in the Western Mediterranean (WMED) in summer 2015 to study the evolution of hydrological and biogeochemical properties of the most ubiquitous water mass of the Mediterranean Sea, the ...

Gut microbiota shifts and short‐chain fatty acids alterations in pediatric epilepsy patients on a Mediterranean ketogenic diet

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The olive oil–based Mediterranean ketogenic diet (MedKD) may support patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) or neurometabolic disorders by integrating ketogenic therapy with the cardiometabolic and neuroprotective advantages of the Mediterranean diet.
