The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Soot formation and burnout in flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
The amount of soot formed when burning a benzene/hexane mixture in a turbulent combustor was examined. Soot concentration profiles in the same combustor for kerosene fuel are given.

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world

open access: yesBiological 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

Beyond the Reports: Cultural Pressures, Unheard Voices and the Climate Accountability Gap in Oil and Gas Sector Governance

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental governance in Nigeria's oil and gas sector remains central to global climate justice debates, yet persistent accountability failures continue to undermine meaningful environmental and social outcomes. Despite extensive regulatory frameworks, accountability in resource‐dependent contexts is frequently reduced to formal reporting ...

Temperature and Chemical Reaction Distribution of a Laminar Diffusion Flame Measured by X-ray Compton Scattering

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
A laminar diffusion flame was measured by X-ray Compton scattering. The temperature distribution was measured from an analysis of Compton scattered X-ray intensity.

Functionalized Organic Lithium Salt Enables Flexible Solid‐State Electrolytes With Dual‐Ion Channels for Safe Li Metal Batteries

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Here, we design a flexible and non‐flammable solid‐state electrolyte with hierarchical dual‐ion conductive channels. The engineered electrolyte combines continuous organic conductive‐phase pathways for fast bulk Li+ transport and dynamic polymer networks for interfacial ion hopping, achieving unprecedented room temperature conductivity (> 1 mS cm−1 ...

Effect of H2/CO addition on soot formation in ethylene diffusion flame

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research
Coupling the San Diego gas phase reaction mechanism and the Moss Brookes soot model using FLUENT14.0 software, the effect of adding H2/CO on the fuel side on soot formation in an ethylene/air laminar diffusion flame was studied.

First Steps towards a Super-Compact In-Situ Laser-Induced-Incandescence Sensor System

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
To realize an actual in-situ Laser-Induced Incandescence (LII) sensor system for measurements in an exhaust pipe of a combustion engine, suitable components for such an application were chosen, integrated in a first prototype and tested.
