Green Finance, Digitalization, and Banks' Sustainable Business Model Innovations Toward Net‐Zero Transitions

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Financial capital is widely recognized as having the potential to provide investments needed for net‐zero transitions. While recent empirical studies reveal that financial digitalization and fintech have changed Chinese banks' loan portfolios and business models, they stem from credit restrictions on heavily polluting enterprises and from ...

Photoinduced Hydrogenative Dearomatization With Homocoupling of Quinolines to Construct Octahydro‐4,4'‐biquinolines

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Dearomative homocoupling of quinolines into 1,1',2,2',3,3',4,4'‐octahydro‐4,4'‐biquinoline (OHBQ) is reported. The photoexcited boron complex, in situ generated from quinoline, HB(pin), and KOtBu, enables the unprecedented homocoupling of tetrahydroquinolines that is challenging in the ground state, expanding the chemical diversity of OHBQ derivatives.

Source apportionment of PM2.5 at a regional background site in North China using PMF linked with radiocarbon analysis: insight into the contribution of biomass burning

, 2016
Source apportionment of fine particles (PM2.5) at a background site in North China in the winter of 2014 was done using statistical analysis, radiocarbon (C-14) measurement and positive matrix factorization (PMF) modeling.

Comparison of modelling approaches for liquid fluidized beds

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a comparison of three promising numerical models for the detailed simulation of liquid–solid fluidized bed. These models differ in their treatment of the solid phase, ranging from treating each particle individually to treating the collection of particles as a continuum.

Source Apportionment of Fine Particulate Matter in Wuhan: Application of Rolling Positive Matrix Factorization Under Different Seasons and Episodic Events

Aerosol and Air Quality Research
Introduction Source apportionment of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) from positive matrix factorization (PMF) model with long-term measurements of chemical composition data can be biased due to changes of source profiles across the sampling period ...

Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps

Ecography, EarlyView.
Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.

Unraveling Contributions from Combustion, Secondary, Traffic, and Dust Sources through Particle Mass Size Distribution Measurement

Aerosol and Air Quality Research
Source apportionment of ambient particulate matter (PM) across different size ranges is challenging, particularly for hourly data. This study utilized high-time-resolution particle mass size distribution (PMSD) data collected by an optical particle ...

Constructing Policy (In)coherence in Germany's Energy Transition and Impacts on (In)equality

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy coherence is widely regarded as essential for achieving sustainable development, climate targets, and reducing inequality, as reflected in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Recent scholarship has moved beyond technocratic approaches, drawing on comparative politics, particularly the “3 I's” of ideas, interests, and ...

When Policy Is the Hazard: Institutional Legitimacy and Climate Risk Attribution Among Farmers in Water Stressed California

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how farmers perceive and respond to climate policy risk in the context of drought and argues that understanding such responses is as important as understanding farmer reactions to the biophysical impacts of climate change.
