Thus, mature riparian forests around headwater systems are often dominated by coniferous trees of uniform age and structure (Ring et al., 2018). Such forests provide low energy detrital resources (i.e., needles) to aquatic and riparian consumers and prevent solar radiation from reaching the ...
An important research gap concerns whether sustainability orientation iseconomicallyattractive for SMEs in the first place. Schumpeter (1934,1942) assumes that technological innovations provide SMEs with abusiness case(often associated with more cost-efficient production than incumbents), which is the underl...
There are about 50,729 small hydropower systems across Asia while Africa is lagging with 580 small hydropower systems. Meanwhile, in Ghana, the existing plants have a total installed capacity of 5,1324 MW, including 33% hydro, 66% thermal, and less than 1% solar [14]. The Akosombo ...
Furthermore, distributed solar systems offer a major opportunity. These systems deliver power where it's needed. This reduces costs and boosts energy independence. Federal incentives, like the IRA’s domestic content bonus, have encouraged developers to use local materials, supporting the i...
Many eco-friendly businesses are converting over to solar energy and the benefits it has on the environment are huge. This transition will revolutionize how we utilize natural energy sources to generate power for our local grids. The application is the same across the board, but the politics dif...
In order to do so, decision-makers at all levels require improved methods and frameworks within which to assess the suitability of their current infrastructure systems, plan for future needs, and implement investment and policy actions that enhance the sustainability of the national infrastructure ...
Classification and analysis of impact on small-signal dynamics and stability from expansion of VSC-HVDC systems to multi-terminal HVDC grids This paper presents a structured approach for analysing the effect of HVDC transmission system expansion on the small signal dynamics. The methodology deco... ...
After that, the detected diversity was considered as rationale for modeling optimal distribution of land use types. The application of the method provides new opportunities for effective use of landscape resources as well for the sustainable development of natural and social systems. This method is ...
Sites were sampled monthly for discharge and inflow/outflow water quality parameters (temperature, specific conductance, pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, alkalinity, total phosphorus, total nitrogen, nitrate, ammonium). While the proportion of developed land cover within watersheds had positive ...
same system. "That's really powerful, because we can work out what's happened to this system as a whole," Fortney said. "Comparative planetary science is how we've come to understand oursolar system, so this is much better than just finding more solitary hot Jupiters around other stars....
