Abstract Agriculture faces key challenges of increasing productivity while reducing adverse impacts on the environment. Conventional practices that rely tillage, inefficient and over‐application chemicals, monoculture row cropping are leading to growing resistance weeds pests nutrient sediment run‐off, declining soil carbon stocks in United States. Digital technologies artificial intelligence (AI) enabling collection vast amounts geo‐referenced information about conditions within field,...
The development of microalgal biorefineries, utilizing high-value coproducts, offers a strategy to lower production costs, while the use saline-tolerant species contributes reducing freshwater consumption. This study evaluates...
Achieving the United States' target of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 will require technological transformations and energy sector migration.
Abstract The heavy reliance on herbicides for weed control has led to an increase in resistant weeds the United States. Robotic is emerging as alternative technology removing mechanically using artificial intelligence. We develop integrated ecological and economic dynamic (I‐WEED) model examine biophysical drivers of adopting robotic management simulate optimal timing intensity adoption within across growing seasons. specify a cohort‐based growth that relates yield damages effective density...
Renewable fuel standards for biofuels have been written into policy in the U.S. to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity of transportation energy supply. Biofuel feedstocks sourced from within a regional market potential also address sustainability goals. The Mid-Atlantic region could meet advanced designation specified Fuel Standard (RFS2), which requires 50% reduction GHG emissions relative gasoline baseline fuel, through ethanol produced winter barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). We estimate...
Abstract District heating (DH) systems can improve energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and be a cost‐effective residential space alternative over conventional decentralized heating. This study uses radiative forcing (RF), time‐sensitive life cycle assessment metric, to evaluate alternatives. We compare forest residue willow biomass resources natural as fuel sources against using oil. The comparison is performed for selected locations in the Northeastern United States...
Biochemical reactions are the basis of life, allowing processes move with a time scale. Enzymes proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions. These enzyme‐catalyzed controlled in number ways. Among them, inhibitors play major role. A simulation model helps to monitor parameters at each and every step, otherwise difficult analyze experimentally. Cell‐based models, such as Cellular Automata (CA) provide an understanding organizational principles interacting cellular systems, link individual...
Abstract The selection of locations and practices for energy crops requires the economics to be planned carbon intensity fuel assessed. This study develops a framework selecting near‐optimal cropland sites minimize cost produce targeted quantity an crop, considering soil properties, fertilizer management, spatio‐temporal trends in crop yield emissions. DayCent, biogeochemical model, simulates site‐level yield, As case study, this is applied 2.08 × 10 8 L year −1 capacity barley‐to‐ethanol...
Renewable liquid fuels production from landfill waste provides a promising alternative to conventional carbon-intensive management methods and has the potential contribute transition toward low-carbon fuel pathways. In this work, we investigated life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of producing Fischer-Tropsch diesel (LFG) using TriFTS catalytic conversion process compared it fossil-based petroleum diesel. A cycle-based comparison was made between other LFG pathways, LFG-to-Electricity...
