RemPlex and IAEA convene international leaders to tackle recruitment and retention in complex environmental cleanup efforts.

New datasets delineating global urban land support scientific research, application, and policy, but they can produce different results when applied to the same problem making it difficult for researchers to decide which to use.

The demand for energy is growing—and so is the technology supporting it. However, future development of power generation technologies could be affected by a key factor: material supply.

Tuning the environment of supported palladium atoms with hydrogen treatment enhances their catalytic activity.

A switchable single-atom catalyst is activated in the presence of surface intermediates and reverts to its stable inactive form when the reaction is completed.

Increasing the concentration of ions in zeolite micropores leads to a significant increase in the rate of acid catalyzed reactions.

The Delaware River Basin is projected to experience a regional increase in flood severity under future climate scenarios.

Electronic modifications from hydrogen spillover onto the oxide support increase the activity of single-atom rhodium catalysts.

ChemReasoner combines decades of chemistry knowledge with large language models to propose strategies for effective new catalysts.

Researchers found that in a future where the Great Plains are 4 to 6 degrees Celsius (°C) warmer as projected in a high-emission scenario, these storms could bring three times more intense rainfall.

A recent study suggests a higher global mean precipitation increase and narrows the uncertainty range.

Catalysts that efficiently transfer hydrogen for storage in organic hydrogen carriers are key for more sustainable generation and use of hydrogen. New research identifies activity descriptors that can accelerate novel catalyst development.
