Microbial Contribution to Soiling and Its Impact on Photovoltaic Module Soiling in Arid Zones of the Atacama Desert

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Microorganisms colonizing photovoltaic surfaces in the Atacama desert form biofilms that enhance particle adhesion and reduce energy yield. This study identifies UV‐resistant bacteria and carotenoid‐producing strains that interfere with PV performance.

Long‐Term Elevated CO2 Improves Soil Health and Rice Yields in Paddy Fields

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combining the two longest‐running rice free‐air CO2 enrichment experiments with a global data synthesis, this study demonstrates that long‐term elevated CO2 consistently enhances soil health. In rice paddies, this improvement sustains the CO2 fertilization effect over decades.

Urban Structure and Suburban Selectivity [PDF]

Demography, 1964
Se informa respecto a los resultados de dos estudios sobre “selectividad suburbana.” El primero es un estudio longitudinal en su orientacon y examina la medida en que las grandes ciudades y sus suburbios estaban tendiendo a “polarizarse” alrededor de lineas de clase entre los anos 1940 y 1960. Nueve de las diez areas metropolitanas mayores exhibian una

Structural Health Monitoring of Urban Structures

Procedia Engineering, 2016
AbstractThe paper presents review of structures with Structural Health Monitoring System (SHM). The most interesting examples of structures are discussed with regard to sensors, the most common reasons of installation SHM and benefits. The example of monitoring system of urban bridge in Gliwice city is described.

Dysfunctional TRIM31 of POMC Neurons Provokes Hypothalamic Injury and Peripheral Metabolic Disorder under Long‐Term Fine Particulate Matter Exposure

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Particulate matter ≤2.5 µm (PM2.5) elevates risks of neurological and chronic metabolic diseases, but the underlying mechanisms linking PM2.5‐induced central nervous system (CNS) injury to metabolic dysfunction remain unclear. Hypothalamic pro‐opiomelanocortin‐expressing (POMC+) neurons regulate systemic metabolic homeostasis, and tripartite motif ...

Scaling laws in the spatial structure of urban road networks

, 2006
The urban road networks of the 20 largest German cities have been analysed, based on a detailed database providing the geographical positions as well as the travel-times for network sizes up to 37,000 nodes and 87,000 links.

Structural Change in Urban Growth [PDF]

, 1995
The so-called industrial countries are by no means industrial any more. For the average age, employment in the industrial sector accounts for less than 40 percent of total employment in the OECD countries; in the United States it accounts for even less than 20 percent.
