Multiscale modelling of CO₂ Electroreduction on Cu - based gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs)
… (solar and wind). Gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) are an important component of the electrochemical cell employed to conduct this reaction. Compared to other electrocatalysts used for CO₂RR, copper electrocatalysts have the advantage of producing several products in a single electrolytic …

Remote sensing for detecting rapid post-fire recovery as Groundwater-Dependent Ecosystems in the Cape Floristic Region
Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems (GDEs) concentrate high levels of biodiversity and several species not found anywhere else. They prevail in the landscape through the ecological contribution of groundwater. They, GDEs, are vulnerable to drastic changes in groundwater depth. If, for example, bulk …

Biodiversity assessment of groundwater-dependent ecosystems in Malta : evaluating copepods as bioindicators of groundwater health
… of groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) in Malta, focusing on copepods as bioindicators of groundwater health. Groundwater is essential in sustaining GDEs, yet these ecosystems remain underexplored, particularly in terms of local biodiversity. The aim of this research is to assess …

Gas diffusion electrodes and operating conditions for electrochemical energy storage applications
… (Chapter 4). Optimized gas diffusion electrodes (GDEs) outperform commercially available GDEs and exhibit no decay in performance during continuous operation. In addition, micro-porous layers (MPLs) composed of carbon powder exhibit better durability leading to high cathode performance compared to …

J-integral Computations for Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics in h,p,k Mathematical and Computational Framework
… requires the governing differential equations (GDEs) to be satisfied in the numerical process used for its computations (ii) It has been shown that the J-integral path must be continuous and differentiable (iii) The integrand in the J-integral must be continuous along the path as well as normal …

Digital change detection and separation of anthropogenic and natural impacts on ecohydrological conditions in the Pilbara region, WA
A deficiency in crucial digital data, such as vegetation cover, in remote regions is a challenging issue for sustainable water management and planning, especially for areas undergoing rapid development, such as mining in the Pilbara, Western Australia. This is particularly relevant to Inflow and …
