Summary: Understanding emissions flow with trade is crucial for effective climate action. Trade-adjusted emission accounting can target producers, consumers, and traders more effectively. As food consumption moves away from producer regions, accounting for emissions embodied in trade becomes more important. The study finds that emissions are dependent on a country's consumption patterns and agricultural emission intensities relative to trading partners.

Summary: The study examines the effects of forest plantation area, renewable energies, GDP, and technological innovation on CO2 emissions in New Zealand. It finds that planted forest areas can reduce CO2 emissions in the long run but not in the short run. Non-renewable energy consumption is the major contributor to CO2 emissions in both short and long term. Technological innovation and renewable energy consumption can reduce carbon emissions in the short term but contribute to increased CO2 emissions in the long term. The forest plantation areas in Manawatu-Whanganui and Gisborne are important regions for reducing CO2 emissions.

Summary: Although the utilization of biosolids in agricultural lands is considered effective in improving resource reuse, the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) limits its application. A 12-year experiment found that biosolids application significantly increased the abundance of ARGs in soil, and the increase was positively correlated with the dose of biosolids applied. Several subtypes of ARGs were detected, with mobile genetic elements (MGEs), aminoglycoside, and multidrug resistance genes being the most dominant types. Controlling the rate of biosolid application is crucial in reducing the accumulation and transfer of ARGs in soils.

Summary: This study focused on monitoring a biogas digester for food waste treatment using an e-nose system. The e-nose system and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) were utilized to monitor the gaseous headspace of the digester. By analyzing the e-nose data, the digester's feeding was controlled based on monitoring indices. The results showed that the digester maintained steady-state conditions and good performance, with high organic acid reduction, pH stabilization, and methane production.

Summary: The growing volume of municipal solid waste (MSW) generated worldwide often undergoes open dumping, landfilling, or uncontrolled burning, releasing massive pollutants and pathogens into the soil, water, and air. On the other hand, MSW can be used as a valuable feedstock in biological and thermochemical conversion processes to produce bioenergy carriers, biofuels, and biochemicals in line with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Valorizing MSW using advanced technologies is highly energy-intensive and chemical consuming.

Summary: Paddy fields-based cropping systems located in areas with dense water networks can cause pollution risks to surrounding water bodies due to nitrogen and phosphorous losses from rice paddy fields caused by runoff. However, research on establishing a low fertilizer input paddy-based cropping system with comprehensive management to reduce runoff losses of nitrogen and phosphorous is insufficient. A five-year field trial found that a rice-fava planting system can significantly reduce nitrogen and phosphorous runoff losses by selecting a rotation system and reducing chemical fertilizer input through manure application and straw returning, thus reducing the nitrogen and phosphorous surplus in the system. Additionally, it was observed that the runoff water in the early stage of rice growth, which has high concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorous, poses potential risks to the watershed.

Summary: Nitrogen pollution from agricultural land is a major threat to shallow groundwater. While extensive research has been done on nitrogen losses through leaching and runoff, the soil nitrogen losses caused by fluctuating groundwater levels are often overlooked. This study found that soil nitrogen losses were mainly concentrated in the initial 12 days after flooding, followed by nitrogen immobilization, and eventually reached a balance between inflow and outflow after 50 days. Alterations between drying and flooding significantly increased nitrogen losses. Adjusting the planting structure is a key measure to reduce soil nitrogen storage and mitigate groundwater contamination.

Summary: The organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) is a promising feedstock for biofuel production. However, inhibitory compounds from fruit and food/beverage wastes as well as lignocellulosic fractions hinder its bioconversion. This review provides the latest inhibitory compound removal and pretreatment techniques for efficient OFMSW conversion into biofuels and discusses their mode of action, consumption, feasibility, and sustainability. It also highlights the knowledge gap and future perspectives for OFMSW valorization, contributing to energy-resilient cities and addressing environmental crises.

Summary: This paper presents a non-contact method of thickness measurement for thin-walled rotary shell parts based on a chromatic confocal sensor. The method involves using a flip method to obtain surface profiles from both sides of the workpiece, measuring the decentration and tilt errors of the workpiece using a centering system, establishing a unified reference coordinate system, reconstructing the external and internal surface profiles, and calculating the thickness. Experimental results show that the method can accurately measure the thickness of a sapphire spherical shell workpiece and is consistent with measurements of other materials.

Summary: Measurement and quantitative characterization of aging-induced gradient properties is crucial for accurate analysis and design of asphalt pavement. This research proposes the composite specimen method to obtain asphalt binders at different depths within the mixture and uses dynamic shear rheometer tests to measure aging-induced gradient properties and reveal internal mechanisms. G* master curves are constructed to investigate gradient aging effects in a wide range. The study finds that the composite specimen method can effectively restore the boundary conditions and that it is feasible to study gradient aging characteristics within the asphalt mixture. The study also observes variations in G* and delta values and the depth range of gradient aging effects for different aging levels.

Summary: Due to the limitations of ground monitoring stations in China for the BDS, the accuracy of BDS Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite orbits can be influenced. To overcome this, low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites can be used as additional monitoring stations. In this study, data from two LEO satellites were collected to improve the precise orbit determination of the BDS. By comparing the results with GPS and BDS-2/3 solutions, it was found that including the LEO satellites significantly improved the accuracy of GPS and BDS-2/3 orbits.
