This study demonstrates that a sodium-induced nanosilica gel serves as an effective, thermally stable sealant for remediation of CO₂ leaks in fractured wellbore cement, with sealing performance significantly enhanced by higher nanosilica concentrations and diminished by wider fracture widths.
This study reviews literature from 2002 to 2026 to assess how climate change, environmental deprivation, and socioeconomic factors interact to create significant health vulnerabilities in Dhaka's Korail and Rayer Bazar slums, highlighting distinct challenges in each settlement and the urgent need for systemic urban upgrading and integrated vector management to build climate resilience.
This systematic literature review of 60 studies reveals that coastal adaptation research in Small Island Developing States is geographically and thematically concentrated, with effectiveness increasingly framed through process quality and social legitimacy rather than explicit outcomes, suggesting that future adaptation efforts should prioritize multi-criteria approaches that negotiate trade-offs and sequence interventions over seeking a single optimal strategy.
This study employs a dual-endpoint life cycle assessment framework to compare four antibiotic wastewater treatment technologies, revealing that while constructed wetlands have the lowest global warming potential and cost per gram of fluoroquinolone removed, advanced oxidation processes incur the highest environmental costs despite their efficacy.
This paper presents a transient, climate-forced 1-D soil model that resolves seasonal soil radon exhalation in humid subtropical highland climates, revealing a bimodal flux pattern driven primarily by moisture's competing effects on diffusion and emanation, with moisture contributing more to variance than temperature.
This paper critiques traditional geothermal Probability of Success (PoS) methods for relying on static geological thresholds rather than project-specific performance needs, and introduces the Demand Oriented, Geologically Conditioned PoS (DOGC-PoS) framework, which defines success as the probability of meeting explicit thermal targets by integrating geological uncertainty with performance modeling, as demonstrated through a spatial application to the Rhaetian Deltaic System.
This study integrates three climate change scenarios into a pattern-based CLUE-s model to project that while Romania's agricultural and forest land use will remain largely stable by 2050, localized shifts driven primarily by temperature changes in mountainous regions necessitate adaptive management strategies.
This study analyzes 31 years of rainfall data (1994–2024) from Nigeria's Northern Guinea and Sudan Savannas, revealing a trend of decreasing annual rainfall and increasing irregularity in distribution, which necessitates a shift toward short-duration crops or irrigation to sustain agricultural productivity.
This study utilizes NMR technology to demonstrate that while water flooding effectively displaces oil from larger pores in ultra-low-permeability conglomeratic sandstone reservoirs, supercritical CO₂ flooding significantly enhances recovery from smaller pores through molecular diffusion and viscosity reduction, suggesting a complementary sequential development strategy for maximizing oil mobilization.
This study introduces INRA-Transformer, a novel multi-scale hybrid Vision Transformer that integrates Inception-based patch embedding and depthwise-convolutional feed-forward networks to achieve highly accurate and interpretable mapping of surface deformation from the 6.1 Mw Sındırgı earthquake by effectively distinguishing subtle seismic signals from complex DInSAR noise.
