This paper examines derivative pricing and risk management under carbon market uncertainty, extending classical models (Black-Scholes, Heston) to energy, weather, and carbon derivatives. It identifies key risk sources (volatility, policy un…

Weihua Qu, Z D Guo

This paper examines the impact of carbon risk on corporate financial distress in China, using the Paris Agreement as an exogenous shock and combining difference-in-differences with double machine learning. It finds that high-carbon firms ar…

X LIU

Using a difference-in-differences approach with China's 2021 national carbon market launch as a quasi-natural experiment, the study finds that treated power-sector firms significantly increase green patent applications. Mechanism tests show…

This study models post-fire stream dissolved organic carbon (DOC) dynamics by incorporating fire-altered terrestrial carbon pools. Using the 2021 Schneider Springs Fire in Washington, the coupled ELM-BGC and ATS-PFLOTRAN models show an orde…

Xin Gao, Xuanzhi Yang, Feifei Li +1

This study finds a U-shaped relationship between digital innovation (DI) and carbon emissions (CE) in Chinese manufacturing firms: DI reduces CE initially but increases it after further expansion. Environmental regulation steepens the curve…

Wan‐Yu Liu, Yi-Hsin Lu, Rachel Sui Kei Lee

This study estimates carbon price thresholds for making forest conservation economically competitive with timber production in Taiwan's Cunninghamia lanceolata plantations. Estate-level analysis yields NT$958/tCO2e; stand-level break-even r…

Yuming Jin, Eric J. Morgan, Britton B. Stephens +2

This study uses the Ocean Circulation Inverse Model (OCIM) to quantify coupling coefficients between ocean heat, oxygen, and carbon fluxes, providing an independent constraint on climate-driven CO2 fluxes. From 2005-2024 observations, the n…

This paper analyzes governance barriers to consumption-based carbon accounting in European cities, focusing on how institutional and policy obstacles impede accurate accounting of indirect emissions. It provides insights for improving urban…

Marco Fiorentini, Matteo Francioni, Stefano Zenobi +9

This study develops a machine learning framework using remote sensing and multiple data sources (satellite, climate, soil, crop) to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC). Adding an artificial 'zone management' covariate improves prediction acc…

Sarah Nordahl, Evan Sherwin, Caspar Donnison +3

This study analyzes how accounting methods for carbon removal credits affect their integrity and actual climate mitigation outcomes. It examines different accounting approaches and their implications for environmental integrity and market v…

Paola Grenni, Marco Falconi

This paper synthesizes seven key advancements from RemTech Europe 2024, presenting an integrated framework linking industrial risk assessment, subsurface contaminant dynamics, and nature-based remediation. It offers an operational roadmap f…

Jafar Iqbal

This paper analyzes the policy framing of mangroves as protective infrastructure in Bangladesh, examining how ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction (Eco-DRR) and nature-based solutions (NbS) are integrated into cyclone risk reduction gove…

This study develops a replicable scorecard to evaluate the integration of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) in climate policies of 57 small island states and territories (SISTs). Using six categories, it finds substantial variation: Dominica sco…

M Anam, S Shooshtarian, Nilupa Udawatta +2

This review examines the integration of circular economy (CE) and nature-based solutions (NbS) in construction. It identifies 17 applications including 9 real-world cases and proposes four interdependent strategies: nature-integrated circul…
