Biodiversity indicators can help companies make more sustainable decisions. But only 9% of the world's largest companies in sectors with a major impact on biodiversity use such indicators, according to a new study from Lund University. The researchers also show that different indicators can lead to different conclusions and present seven recommendations for how they should be used.

Convergence of Roberts flow dynamos in Eulerian and Lagrangian codes

Announce Type: new Abstract: Standard benchmark tests for numerical magnetohydrodynamics codes focus on one- and two-dimensional problems that ignore the possibility of dynamos, i.e., an exponential instability converting kinetic energy into magnetic energy. They also tend to ignore magnetic helicity conservation that can have dramatic effects in periodic domains. The existence of magnetic diffusion is crucial for dynamos, as was exemplified by the impossibility of finding dynamo solutions...
