This research article highlights the need to improve menstrual hygiene practices and address urinary tract infection (UTI) prevalence through better facilities during sea invasions. Collaboration with local authorities to address related concerns is recommended.
The Elsevier Foundation Chemistry for Climate Action Challenge is a collaboration between the Elsevier Foundation, a non-profit focused on inclusive res
This study investigates variations in the ice-flow speed of the Shirase Glacier ice tongue in East Antarctica from July 2018 to December 2021 using Sentinel-1 radar imagery. It identifies significant slowdown events linked to icebergs grounding on the seafloor, revealing that the ice tongue provides limited support to the grounding line, which has broader implications for understanding glacier dynamics and the potential consequences of ice loss in the context of climate change.
This research article presents a comprehensive review of the snow cover area, mass balance, glacial area loss, surface velocities, and the application of snowmelt runoff models in the Kashmir Himalayas and Upper Indus Basin. It finds that glaciers in these regions are experiencing significant ice loss and negative mass balance, with broader implications for water resources and ecosystems as climate change accelerates.
In this round up of 2024, we share the Special Collections published on the SDG Resource Centre throughout the year, featuring more than 800 research articles and book chapters made freely available to advance knowledge and accelerate the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
In this episode of the "World We Want" podcast, Márcia Balisciano interviews three global experts, Ronald DiPippo, Andrew Chiasson, and Luis Carlos Gutiérrez-Negrín. Their book, the 2nd edition of Geothermal Power Generation, was recently published by Elsevier. They discuss the development and potential of geothermal energy as a reliable and sustainable energy source, and how their work aligns with the UN sustainable development goals.
This text ties into SDG 13 (Climate Action) by focusing on innovative methods for CO2 capture using ionic liquids, which can help mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. It also relates to SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) through the use of advanced computational approaches and generative models to accelerate the discovery and optimization of new materials.
This article provides a valuable tool for developing hypoxia scenarios, aiding in identifying restoration hotspots for climate-threatened lagoons.
