Thermo-hydro-mechanical coupling mechanisms and sensitivity analysis of abandoned mine thermal energy storage systems by Liyuan LIU, Yaohui LI, Tao WANG, Tongbin ZHAO, Qiang KOU, Zerui MI, Le ZHANG

“…A three-dimensional thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) coupled numerical model is developed to calculate the coupled effects over a decade of system operation and analyze heat transfer processes along with stress variation patterns in the roadway’s surrounding rock. Results indicate that the MTES system effectively utilizes geothermal environments for high-efficiency storage of waste heat, achieving a residual temperature of 35.5 ℃ (44.4% retention rate) during the first year following the injection of 80 ℃ water, with winter extraction temperatures progressively increasing annually. …”

Assessing the potential for carbon storage enhancement in forests of Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, China by Zhizhong Chen, Mei Zan, Jingjing Kong

“…This study integrates multi-source remote sensing and forest inventory data to model Xinjiang’s forest age and carbon density (2019 baseline: 186.76 Mg/hm2 biomass, 93.38 Mg/hm2 carbon density, 46-year average age), revealing a south-to-north “low-high-low” spatial pattern. Using predictive models excluding anthropogenic and natural disturbances, we project forest carbon stock to reach 203.71 ± 2.31 Tg C by 2030 and 283.08 ± 4.23 Tg C by 2060, with declining carbon sink rates (3.67 ± 0.57 Tg C/a in 2019–2030 vs. 2.65 ± 0.56 Tg C/a in 2031–2060). …”
