Modelling district heating demand: A synthetic dataset for two residential neighbourhoodsZenodo by Katia Ritosa, Ina De Jaeger, Dirk Saelens, Staf Roels

“…Due to the computational effort of large-scale simulations, heating system performance was postprocessed using a data-driven approach assuming gas-fired heating systems. Six heating system configurations were allocated, including condensing and non-condensing boilers, each combined with one of three domestic hot water (DHW) setups: no integrated DHW, direct DHW, and DHW with a storage tank. …”

Diversity and Distribution of <i>Phytophthora</i> Species Along an Elevation Gradient in Natural and Semi-Natural Forest Ecosystems in Portugal by Carlo Bregant, Eduardo Batista, Sandra Hilário, Benedetto Teodoro Linaldeddu, Artur Alves

“…Globally, forests are constantly threatened by a plethora of disturbances of natural and anthropogenic origin, such as climate change, forest fires, urbanization, and pollution. Besides the most common stressors, during the last few years, Portuguese forests have been impacted by severe decline phenomena caused by invasive pathogens, many of which belong to the genus <i>Phytophthora</i>. …”

Physico-Chemical Properties of Granular Sorbents Based on Natural Bentonite Modified by Polyhydroxocations of Aluminum and Iron (III) by Co-Precipitation by Bakytgul Kussainova, Gaukhar Tazhkenova, Ivan Kazarinov, Marina Burashnikova, Raigul Ramazanova, Yelena Ivashchenko, Bekzat Saurbayeva, Batima Tantybayeva, Ainur Seitkan, Gulsim Matniyazova, Khalipa Sadiyeva, Aisha Nurlybayeva, Aidana Bazarkhankyzy

“…It is shown that the use of natural bentonite for the development of technology for the production of granular sorbents based on it has an undeniable advantage, firstly, in terms of its chemical and structural properties, it is easily and effectively modified, and secondly, having astringent properties, granules are easily made on its basis, which turn into ceramics during high-temperature firing. The result is a granular sorbent with high physical and mechanical properties. …”

Atmospheric Black Carbon Evaluation in Two Sites of San Luis Potosí City During the Years 2018–2020 by Valter Barrera, Cristian Guerrero, Guadalupe Galindo, Dara Salcedo, Andrés Ruiz, Carlos Contreras

“…One of the main findings was the dominance of annual mean concentrations of BC originating from fossil fuels (BCff) on the north site in the city was 0.97 and on the south site (BCff) was 0.91 due to some forest fires during the monitoring period. This study presented information from two zones of a growing city in Mexico to generate new air pollutant indicators to have a better understanding of pollutant interactions in the city, to decrease the emission precursor sources, and reduce the health risks in the population.…”

Les techniques de construction du second forum de Bavay (Nord) : utilisation, origine et datation des matériaux en terre cuite by Xavier Deru, Christine Louvion

“…An archaeomagnetic analysis estimated the firing period between 190 and 230 AD, which is in keeping with the date on a Commode coin (192 AD) and an important batch of terra sigillata, proposing 185 AD as a terminus post quem.After the architectural study and the digital rendering of the elevations, it was furthermore possible to estimate the volume of masonry at nearly 20,000 m3 and the roof surface at 8,000 m2. …”
