Net zero portfolio targets for development finance institutions: challenges and solutions by Fankhauser, S, Srivastav, S, Sundvor, I, Hirmer, S, Shrimali, G

“…These include (1) setting context-specific emissions pathways with granular bottom-up data and emphasising climate-development win-wins; (2) dealing with inertia and lumpiness in the portfolio through ‘when’ flexibility (multiyear carbon budgets) and ‘where’ flexibility (sharing of carbon space); (3) encouraging transition projects through future-emissions accounting and transition credits; (4) managing climate-development and other trade-offs with an internal carbon price and ESG standards; and (5) accounting for emissions after project-end with monitoring and legal provisions.…”

Modelling the impact of vector control on lymphatic filariasis programs: current approaches and limitations by Davis, EL, Prada, J, Reimer, LJ, Hollingsworth, TD

“…Vector control is widely considered an important tool for lymphatic filariasis (LF) elimination but is not usually included in program budgets and has often been secondary to other policy questions in modelling studies. …”

The ‘2°C capital stock’ for electricity generation: Committed cumulative carbon emissions from the electricity generation sector and the transition to a green economy by Pfeiffer, A, Millar, R, Hepburn, C, Beinhocker, E

“…This paper defines the ‘2°C capital stock’ as the global stock of infrastructure which, if operated to the end of its normal economic life, implies global mean temperature increases of 2°C or more (with 50% probability). Using IPCC carbon budgets and the IPCC’s AR5 scenario database, and assuming future emissions from other sectors are compatible with a 2°C pathway, we calculate that the 2°C capital stock for electricity will be reached by 2017 based on current trends. …”

Democratising "Microscopi": a 3D printed automated XYZT fluorescence imaging system for teaching, outreach and fieldwork by Wincott, M, Jefferson, A, Dobbie, IM, Booth, MJ, Davis, I, Parton, RM

“…Commercial fluorescence microscope stands and fully automated XYZt fluorescence imaging systems are generally beyond the limited budgets available for teaching and outreach. We have addressed this problem by developing "Microscopi", an accessible, affordable, DIY automated imaging system that is built from 3D printed and commodity off-the-shelf hardware, including electro-mechanical, computer and optical components. …”

Analysis of the cost structure: perspectives from the manufacturing companies in Sri Lanka / Nuwan Gunarathne and Dileepa Samudrage. by Gunarathne, Nuwan, Samudrage, Dileepa

“…There is no relationship between the cost structure and the level of advanced manufacturing technology used, which suggests a low level of technology related costs in the cost structure. Budgeting and cost control are the main reasons for classifying costs while there is inadequate use of information for strategizing pricing decisions. …”

Hybrid Chemical-Electric Propulsion Systems for CubeSats by Gentgen, Chloé

“…On the other hand, electric propulsion systems have a much lower thrust but a high specific impulse, thus resulting in large delta-v budgets. While common for larger spacecraft to include both types of propulsion on-board, the stringent size, weight, and power constraints on CubeSat have mainly limited CubeSats to only one type of propulsion. …”

Sources, spectral characteristics, and fluxes of dissolved organic matter in coastal groundwater and river water in western Guangdong, China by Chao Wang, Chao Wang, Chao Wang, Chao Wang, Xuanyu Hu, Yilin Liu, Guangzhe Jin, Guangzhe Jin, Guangzhe Jin

“…Currently, the source, composition, and efflux of groundwater and riverine dissolved organic matter to the tropical northern South China Sea remain poorly understood, preventing an accurate estimate of coastal carbon budgets. In July 2021, nine groundwater and six river water samples were collected along the coast of western Guangdong and were characterized using dissolved organic carbon (DOC) analysis, UV-visible, and fluorescence spectroscopy techniques. …”
