    • Advances in bi-reforming of methane: Syngas production for low-carbon energy solutions
      Chan, Yi Herng; Yiin, Chung Loong; Huang, Mee Mee; Lock, Serene Sow Mun; Chin, Bridgid Lai Fui ; Wee, Jia Sheng; Foong, Shin Ying; Lam, Su Shiung (2025)
      Syngas, composed mainly of H2 and CO, is a key intermediate for the synthesis of chemicals and fuels. Traditionally, syngas is produced from steam methane reforming (SMR), a well-established but carbon-intensive process. ...
    • Effects of royalty payment on petroleum profit tax evasion: evidence from the Nigerian non-renewable energy sector
      Ya’u, Abba ; Umar, M.A.; Saad, N.; Rengasamy, Dhanuskodi ; Mustapha, U.A.; Bala, H. (2024)
      The impact of the tax regime on the non-renewable energy sector has been neglected in the current literature. The sector is reported to be at the heart of most oil and gas producing economies. Considering the immense ...

      The 2024 CHOGM Shadow Report examines the obligations of Commonwealth member states under international human rights law, while taking into consideration the Commonwealth Charter and the 2022 CHOGM Communiqué, in order ...
    • Translingual Entanglements of Emotions and Translanguaging in Language Learning and Teaching Contexts
      Dovchin, Sender ; Wang, Min; Steele, Carly (2025)
      In this review article, we present the idea of “translingual entanglements of emotions,” which seeks to illustrate how emotions can be inherently entangled within language learning and teaching contexts in relation to ...
    • Proteomic Characterization of Inbreeding-Related Cold Sensitivity in Drosophila melanogaster
      Vermeulen, C.J.; Pedersen, K.S.; Beck, H.C.; Petersen, J.; Gagalova, Kristina ; Loeschcke, V. (2013)
      Inbreeding depression is a widespread phenomenon of central importance to agriculture, medicine, conservation biology and evolutionary biology. Although the population genetic principles of inbreeding depression are well ...
    • Flies who cannot take the heat: Genome-wide gene expression analysis of temperature-sensitive lethality in an inbred line of Drosophila melanogaster
      Vermeulen, C.J.; Sørensen, P.; Gagalova, Kristina ; Loeschcke, V. (2014)
      Fitness decreases associated with inbreeding depression often become more pronounced in a stressful environment. The functional genomic causes of these inbreeding-by-environment (I × E) interactions, and of inbreeding ...
    • Complete chloroplast genome sequence of an engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii, genotype Se404-851) from Western Canada
      Lin, D.; Coombe, L.; Jackman, S.D.; Gagalova, Kristina ; Warren, R.L.; Hammond, S.A.; McDonald, H.; Kirk, H.; Pandoh, P.; Zhao, Y.; Moore, R.A.; Mungall, A.J.; Ritland, C.; Doerksen, T.; Jaquish, B.; Bousquet, J.; Jones, S.J.M.; Bohlmann, J.; Birol, I. (2019)
