Technobiological Pathways for High‐CO₂ Capture Using Micro‐/Macroalgae: Genetic Engineering, Process Automation, and Value‐Added Bioproducts

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

Gleaning the Rocky Shore? 2500 Years of Coastal Resource Use at Red Bluff 1, GunaiKurnai Country, SE Australia

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

A Dual-Branch EfficientNetV2-S-Based Method for Marine Oil Spill Detection Using Multisource Satellite Data Fusion

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
As one of the most severe forms of pollution, oil spills pose significant threats to the marine environment. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR), an active microwave remote sensing technology, enables sea surface monitoring under all weather and lighting ...

Semi-Automatic Oil Spill Detection on X-Band Marine Radar Images Using Texture Analysis, Machine Learning, and Adaptive Thresholding

Remote Sensing, 2019
Oil spills bring great damage to the environment and, in particular, to coastal ecosystems. The ability of identifying them accurately is important to prompt oil spill response.

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

Institutional Ownership and Corporate Sustainability Performance—A Meta‐Analysis

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between institutional ownership (IO) and corporate sustainability performance (SP), addressing inconsistent findings in prior research and clarifying the boundary conditions of this relationship by testing a defined set of potential moderators.

Dark Spot Detection in SAR Images of Oil Spill Using Segnet

Applied Sciences, 2018
Damping Bragg scattering from the ocean surface is the basic underlying principle of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) oil slick detection, and they produce dark spots on SAR images.

Advancing Sustainable Development in Manufacturing: A Strategic Framework for Overcoming Green–Lean Implementation Barriers

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Manufacturing's transition to sustainable development depends on integrating green with lean under credible environmental policy and stakeholder engagement. Although benefits are well established, the literature underspecifies implementation barriers and their prioritisation. This study identifies, structures, and prioritises barriers to green–

Performance of Oil Spill Identification in Multiple Scenarios Using Quad-, Compact-, and Dual-Polarization Modes

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Oil spills, whether in open water or near shorelines, cause serious environmental problems. Moreover, polarimetric synthetic-aperture radar provides abundant oil spill information with all-weather, day–night detection capability, but its use is limited ...

The Impact of Acquisition Intensity on ESG Performance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of Acquisition Intensity on ESG performance using a panel of 1,736 US‐listed companies from 2002 to 2023. Employing a robust OLS framework, we assess both Value‐Based and Volume‐Based Acquisition Intensity against overall ESG scores and their environmental, social, and governance pillars, controlling for firm
