Advanced microgrid optimization using price-elastic demand response and greedy rat swarm optimization for economic and environmental efficiency by Arvind R. Singh, Bishwajit Dey, Mohit Bajaj, Sahil Kadiwala, Rangu Seshu Kumar, Soham Dutta, Ievgen Zaitsev

“…The primary objective is to minimize the generation cost and environmental impact of microgrid systems by effectively scheduling distributed energy resources (DERs), including renewable energy sources (RES) such as solar and wind, alongside fossil-fuel-based generators. Four distinct demand response models—exponential, hyperbolic, logarithmic, and critical peak pricing (CPP)—are developed, each reflecting a different price elasticity of demand. …”

Investigating the formation and evolution of plant diversity patterns in the Qiangtang Plateau based on phylofloristics approach by Xiaoping Li, Yun Han, Lei Miao, Hao Xu, Jingya Yu, Shuang Han, Faqi Zhang

“…Concurrently, our findings indicate that the primary climatic determinants of phylogenetic beta diversity in these regions are bio15 (precipitation seasonality) and bio17 (precipitation in the driest quarter). Furthermore, using fossil data, we deduced that the emergence of seed plant families in this region dates back to the Cretaceous period (145.00 Ma), with a significant acceleration in evolutionary rates observed since the onset of the Quaternary Ice Age (2.00 Ma). …”
