Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The role of business towards achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has been well established. However, SDG contextualization continues to pose a conundrum, particularly for firms operating in multiple contexts. This becomes even more problematic in the case of SDG 11, the only goal in the sustainable development agenda directly

Unscented kalman filltering for autonomous underwater navigation
, 2015 The availability of a high-performance navigation state estimator is fundamental to Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), especially when multiple vehicles are involved in autonomous tasks. The underwater environment further complicates the estimation process, reducing the number of available sensors.

Advances in Triboelectric Nanogenerators With Rotating Structure
Carbon Energy, EarlyView.The rotating TENG has been widely studied for its superiorities of simple structure, high efficiency, and stable output. This review introduced the four different principles of rotating TENG and offered a thorough summary for performance and application research through three‐level classification. Importantly, the current existing problems, challenges,

Transient thermal modelling of green anode cooling in the aluminium industry
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Summary of the methodology. Abstract Anodes, which are used in electrolytic aluminium production, are made by mixing dry aggregate (petroleum coke, rejected anodes, and butts) with coal tar pitch, compacting the resulting paste (green anode), and baking (baked anode). After compaction, the anodes are cooled to maintain their structural integrity before

Terrain navigation for underwater vehicles
, 2005 In this thesis a terrain positioning method for underwater vehicles called the correlation method is presented. Using the method the vehicle can determine its absolute position with the help of a sonar and a map of the bottom topography. The thesis is focused towards underwater positioning but most of the material is directly applicable to flying ...

Where Tech Meets the SDGs: A Supply‐Chain Process Map for Sustainability Management
Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study investigates how advanced technologies support Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within supply chain management (SCM) through a structured analysis of 4448 sustainable practices. By integrating perspectives from sustainability‐oriented innovation (SOI) and contingent dynamic capabilities, the research conceptualizes technology ...
