Techno-economic assessment of the deployment potential of solar district heating in high solar radiation plateau regions

Solar district heating is a promising low-carbon heating option for high-altitude Xizang, yet county-level assessment methods that simultaneously account for collector-field siting constraints and techno-economic performance remain lacking. This study develops an integrated count...

On the price elasticity of residential electric vehicle charging in Denmark

As power systems increasingly rely on renewable energy generation and accommodate flexible loads, understanding short-term demand flexibility becomes essential. Denmark provides a particularly relevant setting with a high share of variable renewable generation and widespread elec...

The LOLland offshore Lidar EXperiment (LOLLEX): a novel observational approach for the study of wind farm flow and entrainment

Vertical momentum entrainment is driven by vertical shear and turbulent mixing and plays a key role in the recovery of wind turbine and wind-farm wakes, but remains poorly documented by field measurements. The LOLland offshore Lidar EXperiment (LOLLEX) campaign introduced a novel...

Diatom–lipid–copepod nexus under threat by global change

The central role of lipids in the ecology of high-latitude and temperate seas is under threat by global change. This hinges on the tight ecological links between diatoms and copepods of the genus Calanus and similar (e.g. Neocalanus, Calanoides) that produce and accumulate energy...

Sea Level Rise Damages on Ecosystem Quality─A Life Cycle Impact Pathway

Abstract Climate change causes species extinction not only by the direct increase in surface temperatures but also by indirect mechanisms, like sea level rise (SLR). These indirect mechanisms are rarely integrated into environmental impact assessment methods, such as life cycle a...

Probing the Energy Landscape of α‐Synuclein Amyloid Fibril Formation by Systematic K‐to‐Q Mutagenesis

ABSTRACT Aggregation of α‐synuclein (αSyn) is a hallmark of Parkinson's disease, yet its pathological roles remain poorly understood. Elucidating these roles requires detailed knowledge of the free energy landscape of αSyn self‐assembly, i.e. the states that can be populated and...

Supporting AI Readiness Through Digital Workflows in Materials Science

Materials science produces heterogeneous data across experiments, simulations, and industrial processes that often remain bound to local formats, manual procedures, and project‐specific software. Digital workflows address this fragmentation through explicit, repeatable, and machi...

Direct Observation of Tantalum Nitride Photoelectrode Degradation by Environmental Transmission Electron Microscopy

Abstract Stability under realistic operating conditions remains a critical challenge for photoelectrochemical (PEC) materials in solar fuel production, where photocorrosion often leads to rapid performance degradation. In particular, the formation of insulating amorphous TaOx/Ta(...

Instability-Driven Mechanically Locked States in Functional Oxide Membranes

Abstract While mechanical instabilities enable engineered nonlinear responses, their controlled application in functional crystalline oxides has remained largely unexplored. Recent advances in freestanding oxide membranes now allow their integration into nanoscale, bistable archi...

Prospective life cycle assessment of redesigned airplane rudder with thermoplastic composites

Abstract The aviation industry is innovating to decrease its environmental impacts while maintaining high standards of safety. For example, new thermoplastic composite materials are being investigated to reduce weight and allow for material recycling (currently impossible with in...

Effects of graphene nanoplatelets and carbon nanotubes on the mechanical–electrochemical performance and hydration evolution mechanisms of solid-waste-based cementitious structural electrodes

Abstract Building-integrated distributed energy storage offers a promising route toward energy self-sufficiency in buildings. In this study, industrial solid-waste-based composite structural electrodes were fabricated by incorporating graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) or carbon nanotu...

Prenatal bisphenol A exposure is associated with sex-specific cerebellar transcriptomic alterations and altered motor performance in rat offspring

Abstract Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by a significant male-to-female bias and cerebellar abnormalities. Although bisphenol A (BPA) has been increasingly investigated as a potential environmental risk factor, the molecu...

Consistent drivers of coastal biodiversity across the tree of life

Coastal ecosystems are threatened by global change but remain understudied despite their importance for biodiversity and human society. For instance, most coastal studies and monitoring programs focus on a few groups of organisms owing to methodological limitations. However, high...

Science-driven or engagement-driven? Shaping commercialisation pathways in public research organisations

This paper analyses how scientists’ commercialisation pathways differ depending on how researchers balance two distinct orientations towards advancing science: an orientation to expand the pool of scholarly work (science-driven orientation) and an orientation to achieve practical...

Governing green enabling megaprojects: reconciling transformative risk-taking with megaproject delivery discipline

This paper introduces green enabling megaprojects (GEMs) to characterize an increasingly important class of infrastructure for climate change mitigation. GEMs are large-scale green infrastructure projects whose primary value lies in enabling broader socio-technical transformation...

On-wafer 16-term calibration approach for dual-setup, bias-dependent RF characterization of scaled InP HBTs

Abstract In this article, indium phosphide heterojunction bipolar transistors measured at two different measurement setups are characterized by systematic comparison of the 16-term corrected and conventional 8-term multiline Thru-Reflect-Line (mTRL) corrected scattering parameter...

No group-level changes in corticospinal excitability following low-intensity theta-burst ultrasound stimulation of the primary motor hand area

Abstract Low-intensity transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS) is a novel non-invasive brain stimulation technique offering high spatial precision and depth penetrance. Theta burst TUS (tbTUS), featuring a temporal theta burst stimulation pattern, has been reported to facilitat...

Health co-benefits of sustainable dietary transitions to reduced red and processed meat intake in the United Kingdom: a modelling study

Abstract Purpose Reducing meat intake and increasing plant-based food consumption are priorities for chronic disease prevention and environmental sustainability across Europe. Previous modelling has outlined how policy interventions could shift dietary patterns to align with meat...

Calibration of Event-Based Camera for High-Speed Observations of Lightning and Transient Luminous Events

Event-based vision sensors (EVSs) offer an innovative approach to optical sensing by responding solely to changes in photon flux with asynchronous pixels. This enables high-speed imaging with minimal data throughput and a large dynamical range > 120 dB. Despite their growing use...

Limits to the Hall Effect and Other Nonreciprocal Effects in Three‐Dimensional Metamaterials

ABSTRACT Metamaterials can exhibit exotic nonreciprocal properties, yet corresponding fundamental limits and design blueprints achieving them are largely unexplored. Here, we derive comprehensive bounds on the effective nonreciprocal properties of three‐dimensional metamaterials...
