The fabrication of indium-based microcolumns and nanowires with controlled phase and morphology.
Stump Harvesting for Bioenergy: Climatic and Environmental Impacts
Could stumps from managed forests provide sustainable biomass in a future bio-economy or are they all needed in the forest to support other ecosystem services and biodiversity?
From Damaged Woods to Renewable Bioenergy
The opportunities and challenges of salvage logging of biomass after natural disturbances to supply wood-based bioenergy.
Protecting Mangroves Can Reduce Carbon Emission
As the home of the largest mangrove area in the world, Indonesia is a key player in the international blue carbon agenda. While it has over 22% of world’s mangroves, Indonesia is also facing rapid mangrove degradation.
Methanol Then and Now
Making methanol for use as a renewable energy carrier.
In Flight and Fight – The Turbulence Carbon Dioxide Causes
We have recently learned that the high levels of carbon dioxide we breathe for extended periods inside planes can cause neurological problems.
Technical and Social Problems of Nuclear Waste
The waste forms produced during the process of generating nuclear energy constitute a nearly intractable management problem because of technical and social factors.
Nitrogen Reduction Reactions: Fact or Artifact
Greener catalytic ammonia synthesis requires robust control experiments to eliminate artifacts.
The Global Warming “Pause” that Wasn’t
The divergence of physical model simulations from observations that precipitated the notion of a “global warming pause” does not signify a crisis in climate science or understanding but simply the limitations of current physical climate models.
Decarbonizing Natural Gas: Methane Fuel without Carbon Dioxide
A fascinating approach for utilizing the chemical energy contained in the carbon–hydrogen bonds of methane without the co-production of carbon dioxide in the combustion process is discussed.
