The THESEUS Space Mission and the Infrared Telescope Calibration Unit
Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Transient High‐Energy Sky and Early Universe Surveyor (THESEUS) is an ESA M7 mission concept currently in Phase A, designed to exploit gamma‐ray bursts to probe the early Universe while advancing multi‐messenger and time‐domain astrophysics. To achieve its ambitious goals, THESEUS will combine wide‐band x‐ray and gamma‐ray monitors with an

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

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The rapid global expansion of photovoltaic (PV) solar facilities, now comprising nearly 80% of the recent and projected growth of renewable electricity, represents one of the most significant land‐use changes of the 21st century. While PV facilities are critical for decarbonising energy systems, their large spatial footprint and infrastructure

The net radiation budget of the northern hemisphere [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 1999 A radiative transfer model was used together with mean monthly long‐term climatological data to infer the net radiation budget of the Northern Hemisphere for latitudinal zones of 10° width. Most of the data were taken from the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project and supplemented by data from the collaboration between National Centers for ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The present study applied the diffusion of innovation theory to investigate the rate of diffusion of renewable energy sources used by Europe's top professional football stadiums and the relationship with carbon neutrality. A discrete diffusion model estimated the diffusion of renewable energy to saturation, and a multivariate logistic ...

Global distribution of Earth's surface shortwave radiation budget [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2005 The monthly mean shortwave (SW) radiation budget at the Earth's surface (SRB) was computed on 2.5-degree longitude-latitude resolution for the 17-year period from 1984 to 2000, using a radiative transfer model accounting for the key physical parameters ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Environmental management accounting (EMA) is increasingly recognised as essential for carbon governance, accountability and net zero transitions, yet research has overlooked how sustainability is negotiated within mission‐driven but commercially exposed service organisations such as private hospitals in developing economies, a sector often ...

Carbon/Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells: Status and Perspectives
Carbon Energy, EarlyView.This review examines carbon/silicon heterojunctions and highlights the advantages of carbon materials in terms of cost‐effectiveness, low‐temperature processing, and scalability. It adopts a comprehensive approach to bridge the gap between laboratory‐scale innovations and industrial‐scale applications, incorporating current state‐of‐the‐art findings ...
