Identifying pathways of exposure to highway pollutants in great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) road mitigation tunnels: Exposure pathways of highway pollutants to Triturus cristatus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Road mitigation tunnels are increasingly deployed for amphibians but very little is known about chemical pollution in such schemes. We assessed pollution pressures associated with road runoff at a major great crested newt mitigation scheme in England ...

Optimal Mitigation Policies in a Pandemic: Social Distancing and Working from Home

open access: yesThe Review of financial studies, 2020
We study an economy’s response to an unexpected epidemic. The spread of the disease can be mitigated by reducing consumption and hours worked in the office. Working from home is subject to learning-by-doing.

Estimation of Additional Equivalent Damping Ratio of the Damped Structure Based on Energy Dissipation

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
In the design of damped structures, the additional equivalent damping ratio (EDR) is an important factor in the evaluation of the energy dissipation effect. However, previous additional EDR estimation methods are complicated and not easy to be applied in

Mitigation of numerical Cerenkov radiation and instability using a hybrid finite difference-FFT Maxwell solver and a local charge conserving current deposit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A hybrid Maxwell solver for fully relativistic and electromagnetic (EM) particle-in-cell (PIC) codes is described. In this solver, the EM fields are solved in $k$ space by performing an FFT in one direction, while using finite difference operators in the

Invited review: Current enteric methane mitigation options.

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2022
Ruminant livestock are an important source of anthropogenic methane (CH4). Decreasing the emissions of enteric CH4 from ruminant production is strategic to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5°C by 2050.

Women in the Context of Disasters: A Bibliometric Analysis of Global Research Over Three Decades [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
As natural hazard risks escalate globally, growing attention has been directed toward understanding how disasters affect women. This study applies a bibliometric analysis of publications between 2005 and 2025 retrieved from Scopus, focusing on gender and

Mitigation justice

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
Mitigating climate change and social injustice are critical, interwoven challenges. Climate change is driven by grossly unequal contributions to elevated greenhouse gas emissions among individuals, socioeconomic groups, and nations. Yet, its deleterious impacts disproportionately affect poor and less powerful nations, and the poor and the less powerful
