New research from northern Scandinavia and Svalbard reveals that Arctic lakes could emit more methane as climate change increases lake and ecosystem productivity. The study highlights how even modest warming can drive greenhouse gas emissions from Arctic sediments—fuelled by lake algal production and plant growth around the lakes.
A research team from the University of Münster (Germany), the Fraunhofer Research Institution for Battery Cell Production (Germany) and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (USA) has used California as a case study to explore whether used electric vehicle batteries should be recycled immediately or given a second life through reuse.
Once current scientific limitations are overcome, AI-powered digital twins could become a transformative solution to the urgent challenge of shifting from fossil fuels to renewable and environmentally sustainable energy sources.
