Assessing urban carbon metabolism using network analysis across Chinese and European cities
Urban metabolism uses the idea that cities are resource consuming systems that are supported by flows of energy and materials, and they produce goods and wastes, which generate greenhouse gas emissions both directly and indirectly.

Navigating the adaptive cycle: an approach to managing the resilience of social systems
The concept of resilience continues to crescendo since the 1990s, touching on multiple fields with multiple interpretations and uses. Here, we start from its origins in systems ecology, framing the resilience concept explicitly in the adaptive cycle with

Anomaly Analysis of Brane-Antibrane Systems [PDF]
String theories with branes can often be generalized by adding brane-antibrane pairs. We explore the cancellation of anomalies in this more general context, extending the familiar anomaly-cancelling mechanisms, both for ten-dimensional string theories ...

An LTL proof system for runtime verification [PDF]
We propose a local proof system for LTL formalising deductions within the constraints of Runtime Verification (RV), and show how such a system can be used as a basis for the construction of online runtime monitors.

Estimating global economic well-being with unlit settlements
Nighttime lights from satellite are combined with a map of human settlements, showing that 19% of these areas, mainly in Africa, the Middle East and Asia, have no detectable artificial light. These data were then used in models to predict well-being.

Analysis of Seed Potato Systems in Ethiopia [PDF]
This study aimed to analyze the seed potato systems in Ethiopia, identify constraints and prioritize improvement options, combining desk research, rapid appraisal and formal surveys, expert elicitation, field observations and local knowledge. In Ethiopia,

Analysis of output frequencies of nonlinear systems [PDF]
In this paper, an algorithm is derived for the determination of the output frequency ranges of nonlinear systems, which extends previous results on the output frequencies of nonlinear systems to a more general situation.

Coding gain in paraunitary analysis/synthesis systems [PDF]
A formal proof that bit allocation results hold for the entire class of paraunitary subband coders is presented. The problem of finding an optimal paraunitary subband coder, so as to maximize the coding gain of the system, is discussed.

Structural change as a key component for agricultural non-CO2 mitigation efforts
To achieve the climate target of the Paris Agreement substantial emission reductions will be required across economic sectors. Here the authors show that agriculture can make a significant contribution to non-CO2 mitigation efforts through structural ...
