Interpreting China's carbon flows

Interpreting China's carbon flows.

Feng et al. present an insightful analysis of China’s interregional carbon flows, using a consumption-based approach and multiple region input–output model (1). Their report shows convincingly that the production, consumption, and export of high-value goods and services in rich regions depend upon the emissions-intensive products from poorer regions in China, consistent with what has become cle...

Interpreting the Carbon Isotopic Composition of Ureilites

Ureilites and carbonaceous chondrites: The origin of ureilite meteorites has been consistently regarded as problematic [1]. A distinctive feature of ureilites is that they contain carbonaceous matter up to 6 wt. %, particularly in the form of graphite in veinlets between silicate (mostly olivine) crystals, and along their cleavage planes. The carbonaceous matter within them suggests a relations...

Interpreting physical flows in networks as a communication system

Information theory concepts and methodologies constitute the background of how communication systems are studied and understood. They are focused mainly on the source-channel-receiver problem and on the asymptotic limits of accuracy and communication rates, which are the classical problems studied by Shannon. However, the impact of information theory on networks (acting as the channel) is just ...
