Finding best practices for fossil fuel extraction.
COVER Remains of an older woman buried in the mid-1800s at Badia Pozzeveri graveyard in Altopascio, Italy. She is one of several skeletons entombed in lime, probably to quell infection during an epidemic. Archaeologists are currently studying skeletons buried over the course of 1000 years at this site for clues to ancient health and disease. For further information, see pages 1291 and 1306 and ...
متن کاملDownside risks in EU carbon and fossil fuel markets
The European Union carbon market is undergoing rapid development and its interdependence with fossil fuel markets is increasingly important for energy investors. In this study, exponential general autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic models, extreme value theory and copulas are used to evaluate downside risk through the traditional value-at-risk and expected shortfall measurements. Empiri...
متن کاملFossil Biodiversity: Red Noise
We have examined the Fourier power spectrum of extinction, origination, and total biodiversity in the marine fossil record. We find them inconsistent with self-similarity as well as random walk behavior, but instead dominated by low-frequency power. Even in the background of this low-frequency dominance, the 62 My biodiversity cycle is predominant. A recent analysis 1 of fossil biodiversity fou...
متن کاملbiosorption vanadium recovery from fossil fuel power plant wastewater
fossil fuel power plant is one of the most important sources of environmental pollution of the vanadium toxic metal. this survey showed that the penicilium austuranium is the best microorganism for biosorption of vanadium isolated from environment of fossil fuel power plant. to determine the optimum ph and most biosorption and accumulation of vanadium by these fungi, power plants wastewater, pa...
متن کاملFossil fuel subsidies and health.
In calling for a switch of fossil fuel subsidies to funding of universal health coverage, Vinay Gupta and colleagues (June, 2015) miss two health-relevant issues: all fossil fuels are not the same and all subsidies are not the same. Liquefi ed petroleum gas (LPG) has major, direct health advantages in household cooking in countries of low and middle income, its primary use. Indeed, the Global B...
