Investigation of Stepwise Basin Solar Still

open access: yes, 2013
Industrialization, development in agriculture, urbanization and the growth of population, have increased the demand for fresh water. Lack of potable water is an increasing concern in many parts of the world. For instance, in North Cyprus, as a result of intrusion of sea water into the land’s aquifers, there is a considerable lack of edible water.

CEO Duality and Corporate Social Responsibility. A Literature Review With a Focus on Country Effects

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, many researchers have become interested in the relationship between CEO duality (where one individual serves as both CEO and board chair) and CSR outcomes. Given the varied research results, this structured literature review concentrates on the country effects of this dynamic link.

Adapting to Water Scarcity in Mediterranean Greenhouse Agriculture: Insights From Digital Irrigation and Regulated Water Governance in Southeastern Spain

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate‐driven water scarcity is compounding adaptation pressures on Mediterranean greenhouse farming, particularly for small and micro agricultural firms governed by regulated water‐governance systems. This paper analyses differentiated adaptation profiles in Almería (Spain) based on an analysis of farm structure, digital irrigation adoption,

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

The impact of forced closure on proppant distribution of hydraulic fracturing in shale formations

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Research findings demonstrate that implementing forced closure within shale formations can remarkably mitigate proppant settlement, concurrently increasing the effective propped surface area from 29.74% to 38.68%. Abstract Forced closure is widely used in conventional oil and gas reservoirs to promote uniform proppant placement.
