Here, we build an open-source model of a liquid solvent direct air capture technology and analyze its capture performance as a function of hourly varying ambient environmental conditions across Canada. We find that, in the cool climate considered, capture performance is degraded due to both ...
Permafrost is permanent year-round frozen ground. The permafrost zone includes northern Alaska, most other Arctic land, such as northern Canada and much of Siberia, and the higher reaches of mountainous regions such as the Alps, Andes and Tibet. ...

primarily due to pronounce seasonal rainfall patterns within tropical regions. Additionally, rainfall patterns in wetlands are subject to the impact of interannual and interdecadal climate fluctuations, further amplifying the variability in fluctuation amplitudes84. By synthesizing water table data from 31 we...
