Digital twin for city traffic emissions using deep vision and real time monitoring

Urban on-road air pollution remains a pervasive threat to public health, yet its management is fundamentally constrained by a lack of spatiotemporal precision in emission inventories. Conventional inventories rely on static, registration-based proxies that fail to capture the hig...

Individual Differences and Task Complexity in Second Language Writing: A Methodological Review

ABSTRACT This article provides a methodological review of empirical studies on second language (L2) writing and task complexity that have investigated the role of learner individual differences (IDs) in L2 writing processes and outcomes. Thirty journal articles published between...

Separation and Recovery of High-Purity Dysprosium from Electric Vehicle Scrap Permanent Magnets Using Cyanex 572, a Cationic Extractant in a Membrane Solvent Extraction Process

Abstract Rare earth elements (REEs), especially heavy rare earth elements such as dysprosium (Dy), have gained immense attention globally due to their widespread use in many state-of-the-art technologies. Consequently, demand for REEs is increasing rapidly in comparison to their...

Rewetting pulses, more than soil properties, control nitrogen losses from drought-stressed agroecosystems

Climate change is intensifying drought–rewetting cycles in Mediterranean drylands, yet their interactive effects with soil texture on agricultural trace gas emissions remain poorly understood. We conducted a year-long rainfall manipulation experiment using co-located soils of thr...

Matters of care in transportation: Addressing disabling environments in the movement for care-full transitions

Urban scholars are increasingly calling for greater attention to care, as both a practice and ethic, in response to socio-environmental issues. In the urban transportation literature, care has helped to underscore uneven mobility patterns and the need for inclusive planning frame...
