A fire safety engineering approach to improving community resilience to the impacts of wildfire

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
Abstract Each year severe wildfires continue to cause significant destruction resulting in the loss of life, property, critical infrastructure, and the environment. In an effort to increase community preparedness and resilience to wildfire, international jurisdictions have adopted both guiding principles and prescriptive codes that apply to both urban ...

Comprehensive laboratory study on smoke gases during the thermal oxidative decomposition of forest and vegetation fuels

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the composition of smoke gases in forest and vegetation samples to draw conclusions about the actual smoke gas composition during wildfires. The focus is particularly on regions with extensive pine forests, like in Eastern Germany.

Pathogenic Escherichia coli Virulome in Top Soil Improvers and Irrigation Waters Devoted to Leafy Vegetable Production: Hazard Assessment From a Case Study in Italy

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Escherichia coli pathotype virulotyping to assess if combined top soil improver and water inputs would potentially lead to hybrid strains with shuffled virulence features in ready‐to‐eat vegetables. This is to support the transition toward safe and sustainable food production systems.

From Lab to Field: Damp Heat Testing and its Implications for PV Module Service Lifetime

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, EarlyView.
Growing global concerns about climate change are boosting PV system installations; however, it is important to acknowledge the durability and reliability issues PV modules encounter during real‐world operation. This study maps the equivalent damp heat testing times for a service lifetime of 30 years across Europa.

Multi‐Criteria Analysis for Effective Rain Water Harvesting Site Identification in Konso Zone, Ethiopia

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, EarlyView.
Rainwater harvesting (RWH) has become a hot issue in the present scenario due to intermittent climate change, scanty rainfall, and insufficient surface runoff. Among such, the Konso area in the extreme south of Ethiopia is considered to find effective sites for RWH through multi‐criteria analysis combined with Geographic Information System.
