Explores AI's dual role in climate action: as a tool for mitigation/adaptation and as an environmental burden. Proposes an energy-aware responsible AI framework integrating technical efficiency, environmental responsibility, policy alignmen…

Komal Pandey, Shalini Singh Visen

This review synthesizes microbial strategies for climate mitigation, including biofilms for carbon capture, microbial electrosynthesis for renewable energy, and metagenomic tools for methane and nitrous oxide reduction. It highlights how en…

Fuhrman J.

This paper analyzes how ambitious reductions in residual emissions can reduce the need for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and lower peak temperature overshoot in a net-zero future. It explores the balance between emission reduction and CDR, p…

This study assesses carbon stocks and mitigation potential in the Perigi peatland, Indonesia, using field surveys and satellite imagery. Under a full restoration scenario, up to 950,259 tC of additional carbon storage is possible, highlight…

Chong Xu, Jianda Li, Jiandong Chen +2

This study analyzes the relationship between net primary productivity (NPP) and land use change across Chinese cities using satellite data, aiming to support carbon neutrality goals. The findings reveal heterogeneous effects, offering insig…

Xiaokang Tian, Menglin Liu, Y. Jun Xu +3

This study investigates methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) fluxes in an urban river-lake continuum, finding that CH4 diffusive emissions are offset by N2O sequestration, highlighting the complex GHG balance in urban aquatic systems.
