Forgoing Nuclear: Nuclear Power Plant Closures and Carbon Emissions in the United States

open access: yesSouthern Economic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the effect of nuclear power plant decommissioning on electricity generation and carbon emissions in the United States. Using data on nuclear reactor closures in the United States between 1993 and 2022 and data on state‐level carbon emissions and electricity generation from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), this ...

‘CLOSING THE CARBON LOOP’: Climate Policy Discourses and the Material Politics of Municipal Waste‐to‐Biofuel Programs

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Waste‐to‐biofuel (WTB) programs have gained popularity as a municipal circular economy and an emissions reduction strategy. The upgrading of biofuels to renewable natural gas (RNG) has drawn particular interest, as RNG can displace conventional fossil fuels in any existing natural gas end use and be delivered through existing pipeline ...

Weaponizing Nature, Naturalizing Violence: Anthropologies of Ecofascism

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After decades of denial and obstruction, the global Right is increasingly willing to acknowledge that climate change is a threat to lives and lifeways everywhere. Moreover, some seize on the specter of ecological collapse to advance fascistic politics.

Inflation expectations and time variations in the oil price pass‐through

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous literature suggests that the pass‐through of oil price shocks to inflation rates became weaker since the 1970s. I use a time‐varying parameter VAR to show that this trend has recently been reversed with headline and core inflation rates responding more sensitive to oil price shocks. Based on a counterfactual analysis, I offer evidence

Aquitardifer: A New Hydrogeologic Term for Geologic Materials with both Aquitard and Aquifer Properties

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose that a new term, aquitardifer, be added to the hydrogeologic nomenclature. Aquitardifer, a blend of the terms aquitard and aquifer, accounts for geologic materials that have properties of both as traditionally defined. Several examples of aquitardifers are provided, as is justification for and applicability of the term.

Research progress of microscopic percolation mechanism of shale oil

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi
Shale oil has become the focus of the exploration and development of unconventional oil and gas resources in the world, but its development faces many challenges. Aiming at the complex pore space, the unclear percolation mechanism, and the urgent need to

Mapping High‐TDS Groundwater Near Impoundments Using Ground and Waterborne Towed Electromagnetics

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐term monitoring at landfills and impoundments containing coal combustion products (CCPs) or other industrial wastes is essential for detecting possible leachate releases to groundwater and mapping contamination plumes. This study evaluates a novel, non‐invasive geophysical approach—towed time‐domain electromagnetic (TEM) surveys—for non ...
