The Role of the Sustainable Development Concept in Shaping Energy Policy Transformations in the Caspian Region Countries by R. A. Aliev

“…This approach entails the adaptation of the oil and gas sector to decarbonization processes, while simultaneously embracing the development of carbon-free energy sources within a dynamically evolving geopolitical landscape. The research endeavor seeks to determine the main directions for transforming the energy policies of oil and gas producing countries in the Caspian region in response to imperatives of sustainable development.At present, the most relevant aspects of energy policy in the Caspian countries involve the further development of oil and gas projects, strict adherence to environmental standards and regulations, ensuring energy efficiency across the entire production chain, and the implementation of "operational decarbonization" measures and carbon capture and storage technologies to reduce the carbon footprint of the fuel and energy complex. …”

Fractionation of rare earth elements in tropical soils from marine mudstone along a toposequence by Marvin D. Cascante, Cho-Yin Wu, Zeng-Yei Hseu

“…The results showed the highest REE concentrations (ranging from 176 to 221 mg kg−1) in the foot slope, while the summit had the lowest content (ranging from 95.7 to 156 mg kg−1), revealing the influence of the landscape on the distribution of REEs. Increasing ∑LREEs/∑HREEs ratios (ranged from 1.5 to 3.9), δCe (ranged from 0.3 to 1.0), and δEu (ranged from 1.1 to 1.4) values were observed relative to the decreasing elevation, which was dictated by the solubility and mobility of the elements during the transportation processes, provoking the fractionation of REEs. δCe positively and significantly (p < 0.001) correlated with dithionite-citrate-carbonate extractable iron, indicating the close interactions of iron oxides and the redox chemistry of Ce. …”
