CO2/NH3 Bi-Direction Shipping between Canada and Asia

“Green shipping corridors” are being established globally, including interest in new cargos of hydrogen (H2) and carbon dioxide (CO2). The former is challenging to transport in neat form, making liquid organic carriers (LOCs) and ammonia (NH3) attractive forms for transport. Carbon sequestration sites are also being established for CO2 disposal, however many are located far […]

Évolution des conditions hydrologiques de la plaine du Haouz (Maroc) en lien avec le climat, l’anthropisation et les séismes

La région du Haouz (Maroc), abrite l’un des aquifères les plus importants du pays et joue un rôle essentiel dans l’agriculture, le tourisme et l’industrie. Cependant, les sécheresses récurrentes, aggravées par les changements climatiques, entraînent une surexploitation des eaux souterraines. La pression croissante exercée par les activités humaines met en péril l’équilibre hydrique de l’aquifère, […]
