This paper demonstrates the use of model-based predictive control for energy
storage systems to improve the dispatchability of wind power plants. Large-scale wind
penetration increases the variability of power flow on the grid, thus increasing...

Concentrations of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs),
pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons were measured in 136 fish from 14 remote
lakes in 8 western U.S. National Parks/Preserves between
2003 and...

The terrestrial biosphere sequesters up to a
third of annual anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions,
offsetting a substantial portion of greenhouse
gas forcing of the climate system. Although a number
of factors are responsible for this...
