The Eco‐Exposome Concept: Supporting an Integrated Assessment of Mixtures of Environmental Chemicals
(Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2021-12-29)Organisms are exposed to ever‐changing complex mixtures of chemicals over the course of their lifetime. The need to more comprehensively describe this exposure and relate it to adverse health effects has led to formulation ... -
The Goldilocks Zone in Cooling Demand: What Can We Do Better?
; ; (Earth's Future, 2022-01-18)
The higher frequency and intensity of sustained heat events have increased the demand for cooling energy across the globe. Current estimates of summer‐time energy demand are primarily based on Cooling Degree Days (CDD), ... -
The link between product service lifetime and GHG emissions: A comparative study for different consumer products
Glöser‐Chahoud, Simon;; Schultmann, Frank (Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2021-03-18)
The production, use, and final disposal of goods are directly linked to various environmental impacts caused along their supply chains and over their entire life cycles. When assessing these impacts for energy‐consuming ... -
The Power of Nature-Based Solutions: How Peatlands Can Help Us to Achieve Key EU Sustainability Objectives
; ; ; ; ; ; (Advanced Sustainable Systems, 2020)
Peatlands are lands with a peat layer at the surface, containing a large proportion of organic carbon. Such lands cover ≈1 000 000 km2 in Europe, which is almost 10% of the total surface area. In many countries, peatlands ... -

(Univ. Münster (Westfalen), 2002)Pinus albicaulis ist eine nordamerikanische Hochlagenkiefer die sich durch schwere, flügellose Samen und einer zoochoren Verbreitung durch den nordamerikanischen Tannenhäher (Nucifraga columbiana) auszeichnet. Diese Arbeit ... -
The relationship between environmental performance and environmental disclosure: A meta-analysis
; (Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2020)
This research conceptually and empirically summarizes multiple aspects of the association between corporate environmental performance and corporate environmental reporting in previous literature, addressing the questions ... -
The Response in Air Quality to the Reduction of Chinese Economic Activities During the COVID-19 Outbreak
; (Geophysical Research Letters, 2020)
During the COVID-19 outbreak that took place in early 2020, the economic activities in China were drastically reduced and accompanied by a strong reduction in the emission of primary air pollutants. On the basis of ... -
The role of women empowerment and labour dependency on adoption of integrated soil fertility management in Malawi
; ; ; ; ; (Soil Use and Management, 2020)
This paper explores the role of women empowerment and labour on enabling farmers to cross two hurdles: adopt and intensify soil fertility management (SFM), coming after six decades of SFM research that disseminated several ... -
THE TETREM SMALL MINE
(2013-09-02)After a long decline of gold production in Ghana since 1986 the gold mining sector is recovering and mainly foreign investment led to substantial exploration efforts as well as to the opening up of new mines and/or ... -
Thermal Characterization of Pockmarks Across Vestnesa and Svyatogor Ridges, Offshore Svalbard
; ; Freudenthal, T.; ; ; Bohrmann, G. (Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2020-11-26)
The Svalbard margin represents one of the northernmost gas hydrate provinces worldwide. Vestnesa Ridge (VR) and Svyatogor Ridge (SR) west of Svalbard are two prominent sediment drifts showing abundant pockmarks and sites ... -
Tillage erosion as an important driver of in‐field biomass patterns in an intensively used hummocky landscape
; ; ; ; ; (Land Degradation & Development, 2021-05-07)
Tillage erosion causes substantial soil redistribution that can exceed water erosion especially in hummocky landscapes under highly mechanized large field agriculture. Consequently, truncated soil profiles can be found on ... -
Towards a standardization of soil-related ecosystem service assessments
; ; ; ; (European Journal of Soil Science, 2020)
The concept of ecosystem services (ES) creates understanding of the value of ecosystems for human well-being. With regard to soils, it provides a framework for assessments of soil contributions and soil management impacts. ... -
Toxicity of aliphatic amines on the embryos of zebrafish Danio rerio - experimental studies and QSAR
(Univ. Dresden, 2001)The toxicity of 36 aliphatic amines on the embryos of the zebrafish Danio rerio were investigated. The DarT (Danio rerio Toxicity assay) was used to determine the lethal concentrations within a 48 h static acute toxicity ... -
