Article 6 market mechanisms under the PA allow countries to utilize internationally transferred mitigation outcomes (ITMOs) toward their NDC targets. We are seeing a growing trend of...
B and W are often found enriched in high-temperature geothermal waters associated
with the development of subduction-related mafic to felsic arc magma. However, knowledge about
the sourcing and transportation of these elements from such hydrothermal systems is sparse and
ambiguous. Being the only active continental collision site in the world...
