Isothermal Kinetics of Catalyzed Air Oxidation of Diesel Soot
Bulletin of Chemical Reaction Engineering & Catalysis, 2011 To comply with the stringent emission regulations on soot, diesel vehicles manufacturers more and more commonly use diesel particulate filters (DPF). These systems need to be regenerated periodically by burning soot that has been accumulated during the ...

Maximizing the detection probabilities of dusky grouse for population monitoring
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Despite its status as a game species in the western USA, rigorous monitoring of dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus populations is limited. Obtaining an adequate number of observations for effective population monitoring of dusky grouse is challenging due to difficult‐to‐reach montane habitats, cryptic behaviors, and limited personnel, time, and funds at

The Price Gap in Agriculture‐Based Greenhouse Gas Offset Markets
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Today, there is a global effort to reduce greenhouse gas net emissions (GHGNE). For economic well‐being, it is important to identify low‐cost means of net emission offsets. Agriculture and forestry have received considerable attention as a means of supplying emissions offsets, as they contribute nearly 20% of global emissions.

Unlocking Green Oxygen's Potential for Planetary Carbon Management [PDF]
ChemSusChemWater electrolysis generates both H2 and O2, yet industrial focus remains largely restricted to H2‐driven reductions. The parallel use of O2 offers considerable rewards but remains underexplored. Unlocking this dual‐gas potential necessitates robust cross‐sector communication to identify and scale viable industrial use cases.

The Gender of Fossil Fuels: Oil and Domestic Perils in Mandate Palestine
Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article explores the gender dynamics behind the rise of kerosene – an oil derivative – as the main domestic fuel in Mandate Palestine. It argues that these dynamics were constitutive in determining who began to use oil, where and for what purposes, in turn demonstrating that women in Palestine were the promoters and targets of a campaign ...
