Polydopamine‐Wool Textiles for Sustainable Interfacial Solar Vapor Generation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A natural wool textile engineered for high solar absorbance and a fast‐wicking structure serves as a highly efficient, single‐layer system for interfacial solar vapor generation (ISVG). This integrated evaporator seamlessly couples rapid water transport with continuous evaporation. Ultimately, this sustainable photothermal design offers a scalable, eco‐

Analysis of cold island effect in city parks from the perspectives of maximum and cumulative values – a case study of Xi'an City [PDF]

Archives of Environmental Protection
The continuous process of urbanization and climate change has led to severe urban heat island (UHI) effects. Constructing parks with cooling capabilities is considered an effective measure to alleviate UHI effects. However, most studies only quantify the

Assessment of sustainability and health promotion of three public parks in Poland’s Pomerania Region

Bulletin of Geography. Socio-Economic Series
The new tendency in Urban Green Spaces (UGS) design is to establish sustainable and health-promoting public parks – often described as the new (second) generation of public parks. The possibilities of wider implementation of the new generation of public

Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.

Chinese Trade Competition and Rural Mexican Migration

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT China's accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001 reshaped global trade, reducing U.S. demand for Mexican manufactured goods and weakening Mexico's manufacturing employment. This study estimates how this trade‐induced decline affected migration and employment decisions among rural Mexicans.
