Crater Retention Timescales of Brain Coral Terrain Record Past Climatic Change on Mars
The Planetary Science JournalGlacial landforms on Mars offer an opportunity to decipher the planet’s recent climate history. We used crater size frequency distributions of brain coral terrain on concentric crater fill, lobate debris aprons, and lineated valley fill, all of which ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.While host structures are known to enhance the reversibility and safety of lithium metal deposition, their additional volume and weight often decrease the battery's energy density and specific energy. By combining a lightweight and porous scaffold of electrospun polymer with a thinner separator, this article demonstrates a simultaneous improvement of ...

Cities and planetary repair: The problem with climate retrofitting [PDF]
Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 2018 In the 2010s, major US initiatives framed urban retrofitting as a decarbonization solution. These programs address an obtrusive legacy of industrial capitalism: its built environments shed energy and emissions when they fall into disrepair. Political ecology and economy have been slow to engage retrofitting, an absence that is conspicuous as these ...

What is the climate system able to do ‘on its own’? [PDF]
Tellus: Series B, Chemical and Physical Meteorology, 2013 The climate of the Earth, like planetary climates in general, is broadly controlled by solar irradiation, planetary albedo and emissivity as well as its rotation rate and distribution of land (with its orography) and oceans.

Climates of Warm Earth-like Planets I: 3-D Model Simulations
, 2018 We present a large ensemble of simulations of an Earth-like world with increasing insolation and rotation rate. Unlike previous work utilizing idealized aquaplanet configurations we focus our simulations on modern Earth-like topography.

Habitability of Earth-like Stagnant Lid Planets: Climate Evolution and Recovery from Snowball States [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Coupled models of mantle thermal evolution, volcanism, outgassing, weathering, and climate evolution for Earth-like (in terms of size and composition) stagnant lid planets are used to assess their prospects for habitability.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This review explores functional and responsive materials for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) in sustainable smart agriculture. It examines how particulate contamination and dirt affect charge transfer and efficiency. Environmental challenges and strategies to enhance durability and responsiveness are outlined, including active functional layers ...
