This study explored sunscreen storage temperature affects the efficacy of sunscreen to block UV light.

The authors investigated adoption rates of solar photovoltaic power at K-12 schools in California.

The authors used developed a machine learning tool for studying social media discourse surrounding use of tobacco and cannabis.

Detecting cervical spondylosis using deep learning

Here the authors present an autonomous drone air filtration system that uses a novel algorithm, the gradient ascent ML particle filter (GA/MLPF), to efficiently locate and mitigate outdoor air pollution. They demonstrate that their GA/MLPF algorithm is significantly more efficient than the conventional gradient ascent algorithm, reducing both the time and number of waypoints needed to find the source of pollution.

The authors used machine learning to predict the presence of anxiety and burnout in students based on facial expressions and demographic information.

Using machine learning to predict the risk of algae bloom

The escalating crisis of climate change, driven by the accumulation of greenhouse gases from human activities, demands urgent and innovative solutions to curb rising global temperatures. Plasma-based methane (CH₄) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) reforming offers a promising pathway for carbon capture and the sustainable production of hydrogen fuel and syngas components. To advance this technology, particularly in terms of energy efficiency and selectivity, it is essential to enhance the conversion efficiencies of CO₂ and CH₄.

The authors looked at alternative production processes for PHB plastic in an effort to reduce environmental impact. They found that no alternative process was able to significantly decrease the environmental impact of PHB production, but that optimizing dewatering steps during production could lead to the largest improvement on environmental impact.
