Coventry University researchers are easing access to cooked food in Rwanda by introducing solar-powered cookers to households with limited energy access.This post was originally published on this site.
Analysis of nitrogen isotope ratio in coral skeletons shows strong decadal oscillations in the size of the world’s largest oxygen-deficient zone (ODZ) over the last 80 years. These findings imply that this ODZ is more […]
A decade ago, a Singapore Management University academic took in the sights of colorful, healthy corals playing host and habitat to myriad marine creatures at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.This post was originally published […]
Rice paddies, responsible for approximately 10% of global anthropogenic methane (CH₄) emissions, are increasingly recognized as a key contributor to global warming. Reducing emissions from rice cultivation is essential to achieving international climate goals, especially […]
The headline goal of the UK’s peatland strategy—a framework published by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) that sets out how to improve UK peatlands—is simple, yet ambitious. The aim is for 20,000km2 […]
A new 3D design for electrodes enables the Battolyser, a battery and electrolyzer in one, to store twice the amount of electricity it could previously hold and do so four times faster. Researchers from Delft […]
Up to now, wood waste has had to be disposed of at great expense and, at best, has been used to generate energy in incineration plants. Fraunhofer researchers are now using this valuable resource to […]
Perovskites are materials with advantageous optoelectronic properties that could be used to develop more affordable photovoltaics (PVs). While in recent years engineers were able to significantly improve the power-conversion efficiencies of perovskite solar cells, these […]
Ski resorts faced with falling visitor numbers due to climate change should hedge their income by taking out separate weather derivatives (insurance-like financial products) for each month of the season, academics suggest.This post was originally […]
Some A$13 billion in taxpayer dollars and 30 years of policy reform have failed to arrest the devastating decline in the health of Australia’s most important river system, the Murray-Darling Basin, new research shows.This post […]
