text: The shift towards sustainable transportation is an urgent worldwide issue,
leading to the investigation of creative methods to decrease the environmental
effects of traditional vehicles. Electric vehicles (EVs) are a promising alternative,
but the issue lies in establishing efficient and environmentally friendly charging
infrastructure. This review explores the existing research on the subject of photovoltaic-powered
electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs). Our analysis highlights the potential
for economic growth and the creation of robust and decentralized energy systems
by increasing the number of EVCSs. This review summarizes the current knowledge
in this field and highlights the key factors driving efforts to expand the use
of PV-powered EVCSs. The findings indicate that MATLAB was predominantly used
for theoretical studies, with projects focusing on shading parking lots. The energy
usage varied from 0.139 to 0.295 kWh/km, while the cost of energy ranged from
USD 0.0032 to 0.5645 per kWh for an on-grid system. The payback period (PBP) values
are suitable for this application. The average PBP was demonstrated to range from
1 to 15 years. The findings from this assessment can guide policymakers, researchers,
and industry stakeholders in shaping future advancements toward a cleaner and
more sustainable transportation system.

text: A precise understanding of the mechanisms causing phytoplankton blooms in
reservoirs is still lacking, especially in large riverine reservoirs. To better
understand these blooms, the role of the complex hydrodynamics caused by dam operation
must be quantified. Here we examine how synergistic hydrodynamic processes, rather
than individual metrics, trigger blooms in Xiangxi Bay, a typical tributary bay
of the Three Gorges Reservoir, China. We used a 3D ecological-hydrodynamic model,
which integrated hydrodynamics with the abiotic factors that limit phytoplankton
growth to simulate one whole year (2010). By implementing a scaling criterion,
we quantified the contribution of local phytoplankton growth and hydrodynamic
processes, including advection transport and vertical mixing, on bloom dynamics.
Results indicated vertical mixing was the main process inhibiting blooms in colder
months (from October to February) but horizontal advection, which flushed and
diluted blooms, was dominant in warmer months (from May to July) when stratification
was intense and nutrients were replete. Accordingly, blooms occurred when both
vertical mixing and horizontal advection were low. We suggested a potential dam
operation strategy to mitigate blooms during stratification, which involves withdrawing
the warm surface water from upstream reservoirs to increase horizontal flows in
the surface layer. Extending the application of critical turbulence model, our
study shows how vertical mixing and horizontal advection rate interact with phytoplankton
growth rate to drive blooms in highly dynamic riverine systems.

text: Formulating energy policies at national, European, and global levels is extremely
challenging. The move away from fossil fuels is associated with a variety of technological,
economic, and social implications, each of which is subject to dynamic changes
and societal scrutiny and can hardly be predicted with certainty. Therefore, a
fact-based assessment for the path to a sustainable green energy future is sought
out in this paper, using the road-based mobility sector of the Federal Republic
of Germany as an example. The analysis performed in this paper is built on publicly
accessible, reputable sources like DESTATIS and EUROSTAT. In addition, some very
simple calculations were made, e.g., on the potential for wind and photovoltaic
energy within Germany. Such an analysis needs to start with the overall energy
consumption of any one country. A basic assumption of the paper is that the energy
system of the future will be based to a large extent on electricity and its storage
in chemical energy. It is assumed that, in addition to hydrogen, liquid energy
sources will play a significant role due to the simplicity of their logistics
and the subsequent implications on cost. Examples of green, electricity-based
fuels with great potential are methanol, methane, and ammonia. Additionally, biomass
plays an important role, either for direct use as a fuel or as a source of non-fossil
carbon. Today, biofuels, i.e., biodiesel and bioethanol, deliver the largest contribution
to climate protection in the EU transport sector. The main goal—the reduction
of greenhouse gas emissions—often collides with geopolitical circumstances or
national political necessities. This includes, for example, the current world
market situation and its national impacts caused by the Russian attack on Ukraine.
The prospect for a green, sustainable, and defossilized energy supply are discussed
in this context. The paper concludes that a defossilized world energy supply and
trade based on renewable electricity and its derivatives, eHydrogen and refuels,
and on biomass, is feasible.

text: Groupage transports are frequently calculated based on freight rates assuming
a declining rate with respect to volume and to transportation distance. This paper
investigates the case of feeding many small shipments to customers via a freight
forwarder network. It is argued that costs for post-carriage transport dominate
other costs. Based on a theoretical estimate, simulation experiments for the case
of a uniform distribution of customer locations around the subsidiary with a fixed
shipment size per drop suggest that the aggregate costs grow progressively with
increasing customer drop distances from the subsidiary. The resulting implications
for transport modelling are discussed.
