Residential Hybrid Ventilation Systems in Portugal:Experimental Characterization [PDF]

, 2006
Due to the variation in natural factors, such as wind speed and the stack effect, natural ventilation systems are unlikely to provide permanent ideal ventilation rates. As such, this paper will characterize the performance of hybrid ventilation systems

Natural ventilation in urban areas : results of the European Project URBVENT Part 1: urban environment [PDF]

, 2005
The application of natural ventilation is more difficult in urban than in rural environment, especially in street canyons due to reduced wind velocity, urban heat island, noise and pollution, which are considered to be important barriers to the ...

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

A Conserved DT2‐bZIP66‐NF‐YC4 Regulatory Module Confers Drought Tolerance in Rice and Arabidopsis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a conserved tripartiteDT2–bZIP66–NF‐YC4 transcriptional module that enhances rice drought tolerance by activating stress‐responsive genes. This regulatory complex is functionally conserved across cereals and Arabidopsis, providing promising targets for engineering drought‐resilient crops. ABSTRACT Drought stress severely restricts
