Big Data Approaches for Coastal Flood Risk Assessment and Emergency Response
Researchers have identify a series of ‘Big Data Approaches’ (BDAs) with the potential to shed new light on the complexities and challenges surrounding coastal flood risk management.
Personal Mobility and Climate Change
An exploration of how travel can also be understood as something intimately connected to historic, economic and cultural influences.
Protonic Ceramics for Fuel Cells at Intermediate Temperatures
Protonic ceramic fuel cells operate in an intermediate temperature range (300–600 °C), avoiding the problems faced by other fuel cell types. Enhanced peak power densities have now been generated using a microstructured anode and a very thin electrolyte.
Gene Editing and Weed Management
Precise gene editing could control weed populations.
Solar-Driven Water Oxidation on Perovskite Oxynitride Photoanodes
Developing strategies to enable solar-light driven splitting of water.
Let’s Get Connected: Understanding Braided River Morphodynamics
There are striking similarities between the structure of natural river networks and others found in systems as diverse as brains, roads and the communication technologies. Using a series of examples, the authors illustrate how a suite of graph theory-based metrics derived from diverse disciplines can be used to provide new insights into the structure and kinematics of braided river networks.
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?
A Reversible Positive Electrode for Lithium and Sodium Ion Batteries
Prof. Nicola Pinna and co-workers prepare a fluoride-based electrode capable of reversible insertion of lithium and sodium ions.
