Evaluating climate-related financial policies' impact on decarbonization with machine learning methods.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Joint Lab Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, Osnabrück University, 49074, Osnabrück, Germany.

This study examines how Climate-Related Financial Policies (CRFPs) support decarbonization and renewable energy transitions across 87 countries from 2000 to 2023. Using the Policy Sequencing Score (PSS) and a bindingness-weighted adoption indicator, it explores the relationships between CRFPs, CO2 emissions, and Renewable Energy Production (REP) across diverse economic and institutional contexts. Findings reveal significant variation in outcomes.

This study presents a comprehensive workflow for developing and deploying Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP)-based soft sensors on embedded FPGAs, addressing diverse deployment objectives. The proposed workflow extends our prior research by introducing greater model adaptability. It supports various configurations-spanning layer counts, neuron counts, and quantization bitwidths-to accommodate the constraints and capabilities of different FPGA platforms.

Integrating climate and physical constraints into assessments of net capture from direct air capture facilities.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

January 2025

Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Carleton University, Ottawa, ON K1S 5B6, Canada.

Limiting climate change to targets enshrined in the Paris Agreement will require both deep decarbonization of the energy system and the deployment of carbon dioxide removal at potentially large scale (gigatons of annual removal). Nations are pursuing direct air capture to compensate for inertia in the expansion of low-carbon energy systems, decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors, and address legacy emissions. Global assessments of this technology have failed to integrate factors that affect net capture and removal cost, including ambient conditions like temperature and humidity, as well as emission factors of electricity and natural gas systems.

Anthropogenic climate change is projected to become a major driver of biodiversity loss, destabilizing the ecosystems on which human society depends. As the planet rapidly warms, the disruption of ecological interactions among populations, species and their environment, will likely drive positive feedback loops, accelerating the pace and magnitude of biodiversity losses. We propose that, even without invoking such amplifying feedback, biodiversity loss should increase nonlinearly with warming because of the non-uniform distribution of biodiversity.

The ongoing rise in global temperatures poses significant challenges to ecosystems, particularly impacting bacterial communities that are central to biogeochemical cycles. The resilience of wild mesophilic bacteria to temperature increases of 2-4 °C remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted experimental evolution on six wild strains from two lineages ( and ) to examine their thermal adaptation strategies.
