Carrying the Moral Burden of Safe Fieldwork
The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, Volume 104, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Fieldwork in ecology and the environmental sciences often leads to negative physical and emotional outcomes for workers. I argue that this is largely due to an abdication of responsibility on the part of their supervisors, and that supervisors are charged with carrying three interlinked moral burdens: first, the duty of promoting safety ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Sodium‐ion conductors show great promise for use in rechargeable solid‐state batteries due to the high natural abundance of sodium. As a pristine material, Na8SnP4 demonstrates relatively high ionic conductivity and offers significant room for further enhancement, owing to its structure built on well‐known tetrahedral building blocks. Additionally, its

Could the chemical industry mitigate rapid global cooling from a catastrophic volcanic eruption?
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Estimates based on historical data place the probability of a catastrophic volcanic eruption in the next 100 years at around one in six. Large volcanic eruptions can lead to significant global cooling for 2–4 years, with potentially devastating impacts on global agriculture.

Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 72-95, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Sustainable entrepreneurs operating in protected areas face distinctive barriers that place additional emphasis on the need to build legitimacy. To date, how they do this has not been entirely explored. This paper addresses this need through an exploratory study of sustainable entrepreneurs in a transnational protected area.

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.Sampling a design space to target a class of possible desirable outcomes, creating an artificial intuition, can accelerate future optimizations to those targets. This is tested experimentally with parameterization to achieve various geometries of freestanding structures using direct ink write (DIW) 3D printing.

Navigating value networks to co‐create sustainable business models: An actionable staging approach
Business Strategy and the Environment, Volume 32, Issue 1, Page 240-258, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Sustainable transitions typically require collaboration between multiple actors in the value chain or value network. Recent research has emphasized mapping of stakeholders and values as a starting point for identifying opportunities to realign these relationships, followed by business model experimentation to enable change.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.PHA synthase (PhaC) is the key enzyme in the polymerization of a biodegradable plastic—polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). Structures of full‐length PhaC reveal three key regions essential for substrate specificity and polymerization. Additionally, this study also highlights the critical role of N‐domain‐dependent dimerization in PhaC activity.
