Oil Spill Response Capacity in Nunavut and The Beaufort Sea [PDF]

, 2017
WWF-Canada commissioned a series of reports to identify barriers that will prevent northern communities from effectively responding to a shipbased oil spill. Parallel reports for the western Beaufort region and Nunavut outline these barriers.

Decoupling Dynamics and Crosslink Stability in Supramolecular Hydrogels Using Associative Exchange

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
How does reorganization impact the stability of supramolecular hydrogels? In contrast to dissociative crosslink exchange, implementing associative exchange in macroscale DNA hydrogels enables decoupling of reorganization dynamics from thermal and mechanical stability.

Study on the Oil Spill Transport Behavior and Multifactorial Effects of the Lancang River Crossing Pipeline

Applied Sciences
As the number of long-distance oil and gas pipelines crossing rivers increases, so does the risk of river oil spills. Previous research on oil spills in water mainly focuses on the oceans, and there are relatively few studies on oil spills in rivers ...

An Integrated Stainless Steel‐Based Electrode for Durable Direct Natural Seawater Electrolysis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We report an integrated stainless steel‐based electrode featuring Pt atomic clusters anchored on a NiFe‐LDH anticorrosive layer. By regulating interfacial water dynamics to suppress chloride attack, this hierarchical architecture achieves superior durability (over 1000 h) and energy efficiency in direct seawater electrolysis, offering a cost‐effective ...

CranSLIK v2.0: improving the stochastic prediction of oil spill transport and fate using approximation methods [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development, 2015
Oil spill models are used to forecast the transport and fate of oil after it has been released. CranSLIK is a model that predicts the movement and spread of a surface oil spill at sea via a stochastic approach.
