Historical precedents and feasibility of rapid coal and gas decline required for the 1.5°C target

To limit global warming to 1.5°C, fossil fuel use must rapidly decline, but historical precedents for such large-scale transitions are lacking. Here we identify 147 historical episodes and policy pledges of fossil fuel decline in 105 countries and global regions between 1960 and 2018. We analyze 43 cases in larger systems most relevant to climate scenarios. One-half of 1.5°C-compatible scenarios e

Genetics of type 2 diabetes

Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex disorder that is affected by multiple genetic and environmental factors. Extensive efforts have been made to identify the disease-affecting genes to better understand the disease pathogenesis, find new targets for clinical therapy, and allow prediction of disease.Content: Our knowledge about the genes involved in disease pathogenesis has increased sub

Evaluation of grain boundary energy, structure and stiffness from phase field crystal simulations

A two-mode phase field crystal (PFC) model is employed to investigate the equilibrium configurations of a range of grain boundaries in fcc-structured materials. A total of 80 different symmetrical tilt grain boundaries are evaluated by PFC simulations in 3D and the results are shown to agree well with data taken from the literature, both regarding the variation of grain boundary energy and also in

Flexibilitet och kontroll: Hur ser användarna på smart laddning?

Elbilar kommer att spela en avgörande roll i omställningen till en fossilfri fordonsflotta. En förutsättning för att nå detta mål är dock att bilarna laddas med förnybar el och att laddningen sker smart för att inte överbelasta elnätet.Med hjälp av uppkopplad teknik och smarta tjänster, så kallad smart laddning, kan laddningen optimeras och bidra till ett mer flexibelt och stabilt elnät. Smart lad

Vitryssland eller Belarus? : Namnskick, långdistansnationalism och identitetspolitik

In 2019, the Swedish government officially switched terminology from using the traditional endogenous term Vitryssland to the exogenous Belarus. Vitryssland (lit: White Russia) had been in use in the Swedish language since the 17th century, and the decision was neither easy nor swift. There was no consensus about the utility of the change, and significant opposition from linguists and editors agai

To what extent has COVID-19 impacted hard-to-reach energy audiences?

Energy users who don’t participate in efficiency and conservation programmes despite ongoing outreach are often referred to as ‘Hard-to-Reach’ (HTR). These individuals or organisations can include, e.g., low income or vulnerable households; renters; and small businesses. More effectively engaging HTR audiences is key to ensuring everyone benefits equitably from low-carbon energy transitions and re

Quantifying Non-Thermal Silicate Weathering Using Ge/Si and Si Isotopes in Rivers Draining the Yellowstone Plateau Volcanic Field, USA

In active volcanic regions, high-temperature chemical reactions in the hydrothermal system consume CO2 sourced from magma or from the deep crust, whereas reactions with silicates at shallow depths mainly consume atmospheric CO2. Numerous studies have quantified the load of dissolved solids in rivers that drain volcanic regions to determine chemical weathering rates and atmospheric CO2 consumption

Predictors of follow-up completion among runaway substance-abusing adolescents and their primary caretakers

Follow-up rates reported among longitudinal studies that focus on runaway adolescents and their families are relatively low. Identifying factors associated with follow-up completion might be useful for improving follow-up rates and therefore study validity. The present study explored how individual- and family-level constructs, as well as research project activities, influence the follow-up comple
