The Role of Transition Intermediaries as Capability Builders for Adopting Radical Innovation in Incumbent Firms: The Case of the UK Energy Supply Sector

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transition intermediaries play a pivotal role in configuring networks aligning the interests of stakeholders to achieve sustainable goals. However, the transition literature has paid little attention to the influence intermediaries can have in strengthening organisational capabilities. Especially in sectors that are slow to change, such as the

Carbon Dot Nano‐Spacers in Triazine Networks for Integrated Photothermal Seawater Desalination and H2O2 Production

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Cyanated carbon dots (CN‐CDs) are synthesized by the hydrothermal method with carboxymethyl cellulose and cyanobenzoic acid, and CD‐CTN is obtained in situ via cyclotrimerization of CN‐CDs. CD‐CTN possesses excellent photothermal catalytic H2O2 production in seawater, and desalted H2O2 could be obtained, which demonstrates the practical application for

Ross Gyre variability modulates oceanic heat supply toward the West Antarctic continental shelf

Communications Earth & Environment
West Antarctic Ice Sheet mass loss is a major source of uncertainty in sea level projections. The primary driver of this melting is oceanic heat from Circumpolar Deep Water originating offshore in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. Yet, in assessing melt

Metasurface Enhanced Photothermal Cement Foam for Robust and High‐Throughput Seawater Desalination

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Schematic of 3D metasurface‐enhanced cement foam for robust and high‐throughput seawater desalination. This study presents a cement‐based solar evaporator (CSE) fabricated in one step via viscoelastic lithography with simple negative pressure. In addition to boosting solar‐to‐vapor conversion efficiency via excellent light‐harvesting capacity, the ...

Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

Release of multicomponent pheromones from porous fibres

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface engineering empowers a polymer exclusion net to serve dual functions: physical exclusion and pheromonal release, allowing for pest control in agricultural crops. In previous work, a net woven from porous fibres releasing simple, single‐component alarm pheromones showed promising results in field tests.

Response of the upper ocean to northeast Pacific atmospheric rivers under climate change

Communications Earth & Environment
Atmospheric rivers are important transport vehicles for Earth’s water cycle. Using a high-resolution, eddy-resolving Earth System Model, atmospheric river impacts on the upper ocean are investigated by analyzing historical and climate change simulations.

A partial envelope approach for modelling multivariate spatial‐temporal data

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In the new era of big data, modelling multivariate spatial‐temporal data is a challenging task due to both the high dimensionality of the features and complex associations among the responses across different locations and time points.

Enhanced Wintertime Convergence of Atmospheric and Oceanic Heat Transports in the Barents Sea Region under Present Climate Warming

Russian Journal of Earth Sciences
A distinctive feature of the Barents Sea climate system is a suggested positive feedback in the ocean–sea ice–atmosphere system that can enhance regional climate variations.
