Microbial activity in sub-surface hydrogen storage unlikely to be an impediment
A new study into microbial activity when hydrogen, a low-carbon energy source critical for the net-zero transition, is injected into potential underground storage sites has generated valuable findings as to where the gas could be stored in future. There have been concerns that injecting hydrogen into subsurface porous media could stimulate enough microbial activity to […]
The Digital Self
https://blogs.ed.ac.uk/keywordsindigitalsociology/2020/01/09/the-digital-self/
When it comes to the presentation of self, the framework called dramaturgical analysis coined by Erving Goffman is worth a mention.

Intervention project
Teachers must abandon the traditional classroom settings they are accustomed to and accept electronic tools for instruction as a result of the arrival of the digital age (Barma, Lacasse, & Massé-Morneau, 2014). However, if parents are unaware of the problems pertaining to their children’s learning, they frequently respond unfavourably to these non-traditional techniques (Deslandes & […]

Engaged Online Teaching and Time Management Because technology is often associated with flexibility and fast time, this can lead to assumptions that online learning is faster and better. Institutions need to provide education in ways that fit with the lives of individual learners, and that means restructuring teaching time in flexible and personalised ways. A […]
Summary of the Kolmogorov-Obukhov (1941) theory. Part 3: Obukhov’s theory in k-space.
Summary of the Kolmogorov-Obukhov (1941) theory. Part 3: Obukhov’s theory in k-space. Obukhov is regarded as having begun the treatment of the problem in wavenumber space. In [1] he referred to an earlier paper by Kolmogorov for the spectral decomposition of the velocity field in one dimension and pointed out that the three-dimensional case is […]
