Tropical forests and woodlands are key components of the global carbon and water cycles. Yet, how climate change affects these biogeochemical cycles is poorly understood because of scarce long-term observations of tropical tree growth. The recent rise in tropical tree-ring studies may help to fill this …

Soil compaction and soil bulk density are key soil properties affecting soil health and soil ecosystem services like crop production, water retention and purification and carbon sequestration. The standard method for soil bulk density measurements using Kopecky rings is very labour intensive, time consuming …

In this study, we present the e ects of time and temperature on the formation of urea deposits and their composition under conditions realistic to mobile heavy-duty SCR applications. To this end, various synthesis times were evaluated (1 h, 4 h and 24 h), as well as temperatures (298–673 K). The formed …

In the search for low greenhouse gas propulsion, the dual fuel engine provides a solution to use low carbon fuel at diesel-like high efficiency. Also a lower emission of NOx and particles can be achieved by replacing a substantial part of the diesel fuel by for example natural gas. Limitations can be …

Materials with semiconducting properties are present in every microelectronic device and form the backbone of our information society. Commonly used inorganic semiconductors are poorly modular and their production is expensive and energetically demanding. Moreover, the use of metals and critical raw …

The title of this report can’t be interpret otherwise, the Blending-on-Board unit, or BOB-unit, placed two years ago on board of Maersk Line vessel is a piece of technology that shows a high range of flexibility when it comes to sailing with different kinds of Sulphur levels in the used fuels on board. After …

Purpose/objective: Stereotactic radiosurgery of brain metastases requires highly conformal dose distributions. Besides beams setup, characteristics of the linear accelerator collimator may also play a role. In this study we compared the impact of leaf width on the dose outside the target for stereotactic …

In dit onderzoek wordt onderzocht wat het effect is van het gebruik van dwangstellingen in vergelijking tot een traditionele manier van leren op het oefen- en leerresultaat van de zwaaihoogte bij het ringenzwaaien.

Study the effects of repeated harvest activities with an Anderson biobaler in natural willow rings around Saskatchewan prairie marshes, on the regeneration characteristics of willow and determine management tactics that increase the efficientcy of the system.

The following document proposes a marketing communication strategy which will contribute to the achievement of the first year’s marketing objectives of the F&L Designer Guide for Engagement Rings, a project invented and established by LeadGenerators, a specialist online marketing boutique in London. …
