Determination of the cost-benefit efficient interval for sponge city construction by a multi-objective optimization model

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
The cost-benefit is a key factor when selecting an appropriate sponge city construction scheme. The research of applying intelligent technology to find cost-benefit efficient planning and construction of sponge city is urgently required.

Biomechanical strain patterns in Meckel's cartilage underlie mandibular variation in FGFR2 mouse models

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sequence variations in fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) are associated with craniosynostosis syndromes, disrupting craniofacial development, yet early mandibular alterations remain poorly characterized. This study examined Meckel's cartilage (MC) and mandibular morphology in mouse models of Apert (Fgfr2+/P253R) and Crouzon ...

Acid‐activated water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) from the Nile River for textile wastewater reclamation: A comparative evaluation of anionic and cationic dye adsorption

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is an extremely invasive aquatic plant with notable environmental and socioeconomic impacts; however, its unique physicochemical properties offer potential for wastewater treatment through adsorption. This study investigates the acid activation of water hyacinth using acetic, sulphuric, hydrochloric, and ...

An Application of Machine Learning and Textual Analytics for Visualisation and Enhanced Interpretation of Sustainability Disclosure

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Social and environmental accounting provides accountability mechanisms through which organisations communicate their sustainability practices to stakeholders. However, the increasing volume, complexity and diversity of sustainability disclosures make manual content analysis both labour‐intensive and susceptible to subjectivity.
