Hydrological models commonly use very simple snow accumulation and melt models based on air temperature information, namely, a temperature threshold for snow accumulation as well as for snowmelt, and a melt factor. This ...

Background and Objectives: Climate change, resulting from the continuous increase in greenhouse gas emissions, has become one of the most critical global challenges. The IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report emphasizes that l...

Abstract With the exponential growth of the world population and the decline in agricultural production due to global warming, it is predicted that there will be an inevitable shortage of food and meat resources in the f...

Global warming which results in climate change resulting in an increase in air temperature and rainfall is a major problem in the world, especially Pekanbaru City. The significant increase in air temperature and rainfall...

Abstract This is the first study which presents integrated geo-spatial prospective life cycle and supply chain sustainability modelling of two compound semiconductors: Indium Gallium Nitride (InGaN) and Indium Gallium Ph...

Abstract Methane hydrate dissociation along continental margins has been widely associated with global carbon cycle perturbations and climate changes. However, the relationship between hydrate dynamics, carbon cycle dist...

Introduction: Water is a precious substance that sustains life on our planet. Nowadays, the quantity and quality of this natural resource is threatened by the global warming, industrialization and urbanization. Purpose:...

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) plays a crucial role in regulating global and regional climate by distributing heat meridionally across the planet. Future projections indicate a weakening of the AM...

Over a century of industrial growth has led to several environmental issues that now require urgent attention, including soil erosion, deforestation, environmental pollution and water pollution, global warming, and the d...

Abstract The observed decline of sea ice in the Arctic, if it persists into the future, can create more favorable conditions for shipping activity in the region. To estimate possible changes in key sea ice characteristic...

Abstract Emission of anthropogenic greenhouse gases has resulted in greater Arctic warming compared to global warming, known as Arctic amplification (AA). From an energy‐balance perspective, the current Arctic climate ...

This study aims to systematically analyze the new characteristics, evolution trends, and causes of major extreme weather in China in the context of global climate change, and evaluate the current forecasting, early-warni...

The global shift towards sustainable bioenergy demands not only improved biomass upgrading methods but also credible validation of their techno-economic and environmental feasibility at an industrial scale. Torrefaction ...

Cerca de 30% das espécies do grupo de sapos, rãs e pererecas sofrem ameaça de extinção, já tendo sido extintas 35 dessas espécies. Por apresentarem pele fina e permeável e, na maioria dos casos, fase larval que v...

ABSTRACT Global warming is one of the major environmental threats facing the world in the 21st century. This fact will have a significant impact on pig production due to its direct effects on welfare, health, and perform...

Abstract Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) transforms wet or dry biomass into hydrochar, generating a nutrient-rich process water, hereafter termed HTC-PW, which is often overlooked as waste. This review synthesizes curre...

Understanding public perception of electric vehicles (EVs) is imperative for increasing EV adoption, which can significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, thereby mitigating climate change and global warming. Wh...

Radiative cooling, as a renewable cooling technology, is expected to mitigate growing global warming. However, the barrier when promoting radiative cooling from the laboratory to practice is still a blind spot and needs ...

Abstract Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a strong greenhouse gas that contributes significantly to global warming and causes depletion of ozone in the stratosphere. Recent observational records show an unprecedented acceleration ...

Abstract Expediting the construction of the new energy systems is crucial to achieving an energy transition, decreasing carbon dioxide emissions, and alleviating global warming. Utilizing Chinese province panel data from...

ABSTRACT: Despite the reduction in deforestation rate in recent years, the impact of global warming by itself can cause changes in vegetation cover. The objective of this work was to investigate the possible changes on t...

Abstract Warming climate has greatly affected the stability of the world’s glaciers. In 1957, as part of the International Geophysical Year, nine North American glaciers were surveyed in great detail so that they could...

To keep the position in being a world-wide exporter of chicken meat, Brazil must meet international quality standards, always seeking alternative resources of improvement, without increasing production costs, including l...

Abstract Since the mid of 1990th, Mosul city over all Iraq cities, is used widely the local power diesel generators. The generators exhaust emits a large amounts of hydrocarbon gases, including, of course, carbon dioxide...
