Concrete structures in coastal–industrial regions are simultaneously exposed to acid rain, carbonation, and chloride ingress; however, most durability studies investigate these mechanisms independently, limiting realistic service-life prediction. This study presents an integrated experimental, statistical, and artificial neural network (ANN)-based evaluation of M40-grade concrete subjected to synthetic acid rain, accelerated c...

Energy peat extraction has declined rapidly in Europe in recent years, leaving thousands of hectares of land requiring after‐use management and planning. A popular after‐use option, afforestation, is understudied and there is a limited understanding of its overall effect on greenhouse gas (GHG) and energy exchange. In this study, we present a multi‐year record of eddy covariance fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), energy fluxes...

Aim Squamate fitness is affected by body temperature, which in turn is influenced by environmental temperatures and, in many species, by exposure to solar radiation. The biophysical drivers of body temperature have been widely studied, but we lack an integrative synthesis of actual body temperatures experienced in the field, and their relationships to environmental temperatures, across phylogeny, behaviour and climate. Locatio...
