Carbon Credits Through Wood Use: Revisiting the Maximum Potential and Sensitivity to Key Assumptions by Jari Niemi, Sampo Soimakallio, Elias Hurmekoski, Tanja Myllyviita, Janni Kunttu, Federico Lingua, Tord Snäll

“…ABSTRACT Wood use generates technosphere carbon credits (TCCs) through avoided fossil‐based emissions and net sequestration of carbon into the technosphere (harvested wood products and geological storage). We investigated how large and uncertain TCCs of wood use per carbon harvested are considering the current and alternative ways of using wood, and the effects of the decarbonization of societies over 25‐, 50‐, and 100‐year time horizons. …”

Analysis of Rainfall Erosion and Protective Measures for the Aeolian Sand Subgrade Slope of the Wuma Expressway by Wenhua Yin, Fang Wang, Weizheng Liu, Yongxiang Wu, Xu Wang

“…Typically, the rainfall period in aeolian sand areas worldwide is concentrated and the rainfall volume is relatively large, which combined with small and unstable nature and the aeolian sand particles means roads built in these areas can be easily washed away and are vulnerable to water damage. Given geological conditions, topographic features and hydrometeorological conditions differ depending on the region, basic research into water damage in highway roadbed slopes in aeolian sand areas is necessary to formulate treatment measures that are versatile and applicable in different regions. …”
