Explaining the seasonal cycle of the globally averaged CO2 with a carbon cycle modeldoi:10.5194/esdd-5-63-2014Georgii Alexandrov
The industry life cycle (ILC) model "is so widely accepted and its basic premises so taken for granted that it has become conventional wisdom" (McGahan, Argyres et al. 2004). The ILC is a stylised characterization of observed regularities of how industries evolve from the initial development...
Carbon lock-in Socio-technical Path dependency Energy transition Coal phase-out Japan 1. Introduction Amidst mounting recognition of the incompatibility between unabated coal combustion and climate change mitigation [1], [2], numerous studies have documented the difficulty of phasing-out coal-fired powe...
Removing the applied electric field allows the electrons in the dielectric to return to their normal distribution around the nuclei to which they’re attached, or the molecules in the substance to return to their original random orientation or shape. In the process of so doing, most of the cha...
which would approximate what carbon cycle modelers use, since it is known that El Nino and La Nina (as well as other natural modes of climate variability) also impact yearly changes in CO2 concentrations. Or, if you think year-on-year changes are due to only sea surface temperature, ...
In European forests, most tree species form symbioses with ectomycorrhizal (EM) and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. The EM fungi are classified into dif
Nitrate (NO3−) is the substrate that is reduced to N2O by denitrifying microbes using electrons donated from organic carbon when high soil moisture creates anoxic soil conditions conducive for the anaerobic process of denitrification. In locations with greater soil NO3−and dissolved organic carbon...
(see Materials and Methods) suggests that regional boom and bust dynamics are characterized by long-term oscillations of characteristic periods and amplitudes (Fig.2). In particular, half-cycle periods (estimated by the first minimum of the Autocorrelation Function, ACF) cluster around 500 years (...
Having broadly available diet plans and the tools to generate them can be a good way to enhance children’s diets while reducing carbon emissions. But this means that these models and programs would be used by people not especially trained in linear programming, because not every school can hir...
"In Australia, C4plants are critical to grazing, soil carbon storage and biodiversity. We need to understand the factors that are likely to influence their survival in the future, to provide a basis for future conservation of these important plants." ...
