Adsorption of Forever Chemical Pollutants: The Physical Chemistry of PFAS Near Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Current adsorption‐based remediation techniques for removing per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water are limited by knowledge gaps on PFAS behavior near solid surfaces. This review provides a state of the art on theoretical and experimental aspects of PFAS adsorption.

Open space networks can guide urban renewal in a megacity

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
As human populations move into cities they are increasingly isolated from the natural world, with associated negative impacts on health and well-being. However, as cities renew themselves through urban redevelopment and climate-adaptation, opportunities ...

The impact of urban green spaces on the probability of urban crime in Indonesia

open access: yesDevelopment Studies Research, 2021
Does the presence of green spaces in urban environments reduce the probability of crime? This paper applies the difference-in-differences approach to quantify the impact of urban green spaces on the probability of crime occurrence using data from the ...

Causal‐Guided Ultra‐Long‐Term Time Series Forecasting Via Anticipated Covariates

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Often treated as unknown, information from the future remains underutilized.We demonstrate that in a coupled dynamical system, providing the future state of the effect enables accurate forecasting of the cause for a long timesteps. A time series forecasting paradigm that introduces anticipated covariates to represent such known future states is ...

Developing Education Practice in Urban Green Spaces [PDF]

open access: yesMeliora, 2017
Education within green spaces is has pedagogical, social, health and wellbeing benefits. This commentary describes the methodology we used to investigate barriers to education in the green spaces of Southampton. We also discuss the challenges we faced when working with teachers and schools, and offer some solutions.

Development of the urban green space quality assessment tool (RECITAL)

open access: yes, 2021
The quality of green spaces could play a crucial role in green spaces’ health benefits and their underlying mechanisms. We developed and implemented the RECITAL: a multidimensional in situ quality assessment tool for urban green spaces, primarily to ...

Terahertz Channel Modeling, Estimation and Localization in RIS‐Assisted Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces have become a recent intensive research focus. Based on practical applications, channel strategies for RIS‐assisted terahertz wireless communication systems are categorized into three different types: channel modeling, channel estimation, and channel localization.

Comparison of two different approaches for assessing the psychological and social dimensions of green spaces

open access: yes, 2006
Urban forests, trees and other green spaces are thought to contribute significantly to certain psychophysical and social needs of urban dwellers. Recent studies on citizens' perceptions and behaviour toward urban green areas have shown the complexity and

Electric Field‐Induced Hole‐ and Electron‐Type Flat Bands in Twisted Double Bilayer Graphene

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The electronic structure of twisted double bilayer graphene is visualized using angle‐resolved photoemission spectroscopy with micrometer spatial resolution at twists of 3.1∘$^\circ$ and 6.0∘$^\circ$ as a function of gate voltage. Tunable hybridization effects and flat band formation occurs between valence and conduction band states due to a finite ...

Assessing the impact of green spaces on the urban heat island effect

open access: yesGeocarto International
Urban green spaces provide several ecosystem services, such as regulating microclimates and the urban heat island. This study applied the Earth Blox platform alongside the Google Earth Engine to evaluate the effect of urban green spaces on the urban heat
