Estimating the Carbon Footprint of External Beam Radiotherapy: Should This Be a Concern for LMICs?

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose This study aims to estimate the carbon footprint associated with external beam radiotherapy in a low‐ and middle‐income country (LMIC) context, specifically at the Uganda Cancer Institute (UCI), and to evaluate whether sustainability should be a priority alongside treatment access in such radiation therapy settings.

Towards Credible GHG Reporting: The Role of GHG Assurance and Assurance Providers in Firm Valuation

Abacus, EarlyView.
The demand for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disclosures is rising globally; yet, the credibility of such information remains uncertain when assurance is not mandated. Drawing on a sample of firms from 43 countries, this study examines the role of GHG assurance and the choice of assurance provider in the market value effects of GHG emissions.

Digital colorimetric sensing for real‐time gas monitoring for smart green energy system

EcoMat, 2023
In this study, we demonstrate that a digital colorimetric sensor platform can transform a conventional energy system, such as gas‐insulated switchgear (GIS) into a smart green energy system. Our sensor platform consists of a colorimetric sensor film (CSF)

Do Global Reporting Initiative Reports Capture Planetary Boundaries‐related Information? An Empirical Investigation

Abacus, EarlyView.
The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) has become a widely adopted sustainability reporting framework. This study aims to examine whether GRI reports can, should, and do address planetary boundaries. To do so, the study develops a framework and method to assess the extent to which planetary boundaries‐related information is captured in firms’ GRI ...

Spectrophone Measurements in Sulfur Hexafluoride [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 1986
The optoacoustic signal generated by pulsed 10.6 c infrared radiation incident upon a test cell filled with gaseous SF6 has been analyzed in detail. The effects ofm icroscopic energy transfer from the absorbing vibrational degrees of freedom, spontaneous emission, thermal conduction, and acoustic wave propagation are included.

Genetic Parameters of Methane Emission, Feed Efficiency, Feeding Behaviour, and Growth Traits in Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change has intensified the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane (CH4) from enteric fermentation. Genetic selection has emerged as a promising mitigation strategy; however, studies on Bos taurus indicus , especially Nellore cattle, remain limited.
