    Small costs for large gains: climate resilience in Small Island Developing States
    (Colorado School of Mines. Arthur Lakes Library, 2025-10-13) Saghir, Jamal; Ijjasz-Vasquez, Ede Jorge; Colorado School of Mines. Payne Institute for Public Policy
    Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are increasingly affected by the growing impacts of climate hazards, including tropical cyclones, storm surges, increases in temperature, heatwaves, droughts, coastal and riverine flooding, changing precipitation patterns, and sea level rise among others. Disasters cost SIDS approximately 18% of their gross domestic product (GDP) on average, significantly higher than the world average of around 3%.

    Planning, policies, and governance: the importance of strategy when it comes to climate finance for Small Island Developing States
    (Colorado School of Mines. Arthur Lakes Library, 2025-10-13) Flores, Daniel; Eichhorn, Julia; Saghir, Jamal; Ijjasz-Vasquez, Ede Jorge; Colorado School of Mines. Payne Institute for Public Policy
    Ramping up climate finance flows for adaptation is critical to addressing the irreversible impacts of climate change, but this alone will not be enough to protect Small Island Developing States (SIDS). Planning is crucial when making strategic choices for policies and programs for climate change adaptation, particularly in the face of constrained budgets. Climate change is a complex and multifaceted challenge that affects various sectors and all of society.

    The future of AI runs through Indian country
    (Colorado School of Mines. Arthur Lakes Library, 2025-10-01) Brunson, Alexandra DakotaTomi; Previdi, Elise; Luarkie, Richard; Bazilian, Morgan; Colorado School of Mines. Payne Institute for Public Policy
    By 2030, the U.S. is projected to experience a significant increase in demand for power capacity to meet the needs of its rapidly expanding network of data centers. This surge is being driven in part by the explosive growth of AI models, cloud services, and high-performance computing workloads, which require unprecedented levels of energy and computational power.

    Laser powder bed fusion 316L process settings to tensile properties
    (2025-09-03) Gonzalez, Alexander
    This dataset contains process parameter sets from a laser powder bed fusion additive manufacturing experiment (PBF-LB) together with resulting mechanical test outcomes (e.g. tensile strength, elongation, etc.). The goal is to enable analysis of how variations in process settings (laser power, scan speed, hatch spacing, layer thickness, etc.) correlate with mechanical properties.
