One of the major advantages of using steam propulsion is that boil-off gas, created by thermal conductivity through the tank walls and movement of the liquid in a seaway, can be readily burned in the ship's boilers. This saves the consumption of fuel oil bunkers (which escalated in price ...
Estimates of remaining oil and natural gas vary widely (Mohr et al., 2015), but the cheap high quality oil, at scale, has largely been found and exploited (Fustier et al., 2016; Masnadi and Brandt, 2017). The left side of Fig. 4 conveys a misleading, but common interpretation of ...
Climate change and increasing water use associated with socio-economic growth have exacerbated the water crisis in many parts of the world. Many regional studies rely on Earth System Models that, however, do not fully exploit streamflow observations. Her
parameter is set randomly in the Monte Carlo simulation rather than derived through a general equilibrium model. The results should therefore be interpreted with caution as indicating potential future climate change risks to the existing economy rather than as quantitative predictions, given that the sta...
Shale oil in Northern America has been dismissed as unworkable and unprofitable ever since it started influencing global prices. Predictions of collapse have only grown more intense with rising production. But if you didn't predict the coming of shale oil in NA, what makes you think you can ...

2023, International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control Citation Excerpt : January is typically the busiest month for OCGT power plants. Wilkes et al. (Wilkes et al., 2021a) showed the daily OCGT generation between 2016 and 2019, which provided comparable results and easily explainable operational...
Reducing food waste is not only an ethical imperative but also represents a massive economic and environmental opportunity. According to analysis by the World Resources Institute, cutting food waste in half by 2030 could generate $73 billion in annual cost savings, reduce greenhouse gas emissions by...
Our results suggest that achieving any given global temperature stabilization target will require steeper greenhouse gas emissions reductions than previously calculated.
