Global scenario modelling for climate stabilization lacks national resolution, particularly the agriculture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) sector, impeding effective policymaking. We generate 850 randomized scenarios of activity combinations Ireland’s AFOLU sector in year 2050 evaluate associated greenhouse gas fluxes to 2100. Using a GWP100 ‘net-zero’ definition, 146 achieve neutrality 3...

In the wake of 21st century, climate change has emerged as biggest lifethreatening challenge with a potential evolving into largest, if not most complex, economic opportunity since industrial revolution. While narrowing down its focus to carbon tax regulatory fiscal aspect international law, this article explores role in moulding line commitments assumed by countries under 2015 Paris Agreement....

The Euro 7 legislation and the Zero-Impact Emissions concept aim at significantly improving air quality. Technologies that reduce pollutant emissions beyond current gasoline passenger cars have already been intensively investigated, but a holistic system layout considering extended boundary conditions is missing so far. This paper therefore develops technical solutions to achieve scenario for 2...

Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) is a mode of combustion in IC engines in which premixed fuel and air are ignited spontaneously. There is a belief that HCCI engines have a great potential to improve fuel consumption and reduce NOx emissions. In this study, a single zone, zero dimensional, thermo-kinetic model has been developed and a computer program with MATLAB software is use...

Audi ological evaluation in infants should include the middle ear (immitance measures and otoscopy) and also a cochlear evaluation. Aim: To check which tympanometry tone test (226 Hz or 1000 Hz), transient otoacoustic emissions and otoscopy. Methods: Transient otoacoustic emissions were taken from sixty infants ranging from zero to four months of age. The babies were assigned to two groups of 3...
