Bioclimatic Design of Sustainable Campuses using Advanced Optimisation Methods

Silvia Coccolo

Cities occupy 0.5% of the earth surface, but they consume 75% of worldwide energy, and they are responsible of 50% to 80% of CO2 emissions. Cities are directly responsible for the climate change. However, they are the key for providing solutions to this pr ...

Energy metabolism in the rat cortex under thiopental anaesthesia measured

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Rolf Gruetter, Nathalie Just, Sarah Catherine Sonnay

Barbiturates, commonly used as general anaesthetics, depress neuronal activity and thus cerebral metabolism. Moreover, they are likely to disrupt the metabolic support of astrocytes to neurons, as well as the uptake of nutrients from circulation. By employ ...

Climate-Induced Changes in Spring Snowmelt Impact Ecosystem Metabolism and Carbon Fluxes in an Alpine Stream Network

Enrico Bertuzzo, Tom Ian Battin, Amber Joy Ulseth

Although stream ecosystems are recognized as an important component of the global carbon cycle, the impacts of climate-induced hydrological extremes on carbon fluxes in stream networks remain unclear. Using continuous measurements of ecosystem metabolism, ...
