Abstract Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), which are a portion of non-protein-
coding RNAs (ncRNAs), have manifested a paramount role in the pathophysiology of human …

Solar energy serves as a great alternative to fossil fuels as they are clean and renewable
energy. Accurate solar radiation (SR) prediction can substantially lower down the impact …

Renewable energy is expected to become the main electricity source in the world in the
coming decades, with solar and wind power taking a big share of the energy supply …

Soiling by dry deposition affects the power output of photovoltaic (PV) modules, especially
under dry and arid conditions that favor natural atmospheric aerosols (wind-blown dust). In …

As glaciers adjust their size in response to climate variations, long-term changes in
meltwater production can be expected, affecting the local availability of water resources. We …

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are the cheapest source of electricity in sunny locations and
nearly all European countries. However, the fast deployment of PV systems around the …

As a clean and renewable resource, solar energy is increasingly being used to relieve the
pressures on environmental protection and the exhaustion of conventional energy. Although …

High-accuracy solar radiation data are needed in almost every solar energy project for
bankability. Time series of solar irradiance components that spans decades can be supplied …

Energy storage systems (ESS) are a structural solution for the integration of renewable
energy systems. To plan the optimal combination of ESS, storage expansion planning …

The past few years have seen the rise of large-scale, low-priced solar energy projects
around the world. Oil-producing countries in the Middle East, in particularly the United Arab …
