Assessment of gas emissions from oil mines in Romania [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences
Methane is responsible for around 30% of the rise in global temperatures since the Industrial Revolution, and rapid and sustained reductions in methane emissions are key to limiting near-term global warming and improving air quality.

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The

Hole‐Activated Lattice Oxygen Enables Pt‐Free Propane Dehydrogenation by Eliminating the Hydrogen Recombination Bottleneck

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Trace Mg doping into gallia–alumina generates hole‐type oxygen species that accelerate hydrogen recombination, eliminating the need for Pt promotion. The fully oxide‐based catalyst resists sintering under repeated regeneration, outperforming benchmark PtSn and CrOx catalysts with exceptional stability over 30 dehydrogenation–regeneration cycles ...

The Cow or the Credit: Causal Relationship Between California Dairy Herd Consolidation and Anaerobic Digesters

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The California dairy industry has experienced considerable consolidation over the past 30 years. During this period, there has also been substantial technological innovation, implementation of the state's Low Carbon Fuel Standard program, and rapid adoption of anaerobic digesters.

Measuring Local Exothermic Effects During the Oxidative Coupling of Methane Using Operando Luminescence Thermometry

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Operando luminescence thermometry shows that the local catalyst temperature can exceed the set oven temperature by almost 250°C during the exothermic oxidative coupling of methane process. We demonstrate how the reactor dimensions, catalyst grain size, and reactant feed mixture affect the local temperature.

Influence of the Thickness of Freezing of the Soil Surface and Snow Cover on Methane Emissions during Freezing of Seasonal Permafrost

Atmosphere
Methane, a type of greenhouse gas, poses considerable concern for humans. This study uses field experiments and satellite measurements to explore methane emission mechanisms during the freezing of seasonal permafrost and the contributing factors.

Consumers' Willingness to Pay a Premium for Climate‐Friendly Food Production: The Role of Production Method Information and Social Norms

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether information about production methods and social norms can increase consumers' willingness to pay (WTP) a price premium for food produced using climate‐friendly farming methods. A randomized survey experiment was conducted with 1568 respondents across Denmark, Lithuania, and Spain, who were assigned to one of four ...

Alternative Policy Designs to Help Farmers Select Profitable Conservation Practices

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Voluntary private carbon initiatives (VPCIs) promote the implementation of agricultural conservation practices that mitigate emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) via financial incentives to participating farmers. Simultaneously, an array of public policies supports the adoption of conservation practices through technical and financial ...

Does Participating in Agricultural Global Value Chains Promote Agricultural Growth?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between GVC participation and agricultural value‐added growth in 43 countries over the period 1995–2022. In contrast to prior literature, we disaggregate the agricultural sector into four sub‐sectors namely crop cultivation, animal production, forestry and fishing.
