Transition to a Sustainable Circular Society: More than Just Resource Efficiency

Calisto Friant, Martin; Vermeulen, Walter J.V.; Salomone, Roberta (Springer Nature, 2024)

While the conceptual underpinnings of the circular economy (CE) date back to the 1970s, the concept has recently become a major discourse in contemporary sustainability debates. The idea of CE, as it is now understood, is ...
The rise, fall and rebirth of ocean carbon sequestration as a climate 'solution'

De Pryck, Kari; Boettcher, Miranda (Elsevier Limited, 2024-03)

While the ocean has long been portrayed as a victim of climate change, threatened by ocean warming and acidification, it is now increasingly framed as a key solution to the climate crisis. In particular, the promising ...
Hydrological Droughts in the Netherlands: from Simulations to Projections using Data-Driven Methods

Hauswirth, Sandra (Utrecht University, 2024-04-12)

Droughts in Europe have become more frequent and recent examples such as the droughts in 2003, 2015, 2018, and 2022, highlight their impact. The past few extreme drought events showed that even countries that are usually ...
Relevance of pharmacological boosters in the disposition of oral anticancer drugs: Mouse models

Loos, Nancy H C (Utrecht University, 2024-04-10)

Drug response and toxicity, as well as drug-drug interactions, are in part determined by the influence of drug transporters and drug-metabolizing enzymes. The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) drug efflux transporters and organic ...
A Model-Data Comparison of the Hydrological Response to Miocene Warmth: Leveraging the MioMIP1 Opportunistic Multi-Model Ensemble

Acosta, R. P.; Burls, N. J.; Pound, M. J.; Bradshaw, C. D.; De Boer, A. M.; Herold, N.; Huber, M.; Liu, X.; Donnadieu, Y.; Farnsworth, A.; Frigola, A.; Lunt, D. J.; von der Heydt, A. S.; Hutchinson, D. K.; Knorr, G.; Lohmann, G.; Marzocchi, A.; Prange, M.; Sarr, A. C.; Li, X.; Zhang, Z. (Wiley Online Library, 2024-01)

The Miocene (23.03–5.33 Ma) is recognized as a period with close to modern-day paleogeography, yet a much warmer climate. With large uncertainties in future hydroclimate projections, Miocene conditions illustrate a potential ...
ALICE luminosity determination for Pb-Pb collisions at √ s NN= 5.02 TeV

ALICE Collaboration (IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2024-02-01)

Luminosity determination within the ALICE experiment is based on the measurement, in van der Meer scans, of the cross sections for visible processes involving one or more detectors (visible cross sections). In 2015 and ...
How technological and new societal trends may influence the European sustainable energy transition: analysis of policies, methodologies and impacts

Mikova, Nadezhda (Utrecht University, 2024-04-12)

Although a number of European countries have developed low-carbon energy strategies and analysed them in the form of scenarios, only a part of them consider projections to 2050. No country so far developed a complex view ...
Threatened by the immoral, challenged by the incompetent: Cardiovascular responses to intragroup morality vs. competence evaluations

van der Lee, Romy; Ellemers, Naomi; Zarzeczna, Natalia; Scheepers, Daan (SAGE Publications Ltd, 2024)

In group contexts, moral judgments are used as social influence tactics to regulate the behavior of group members. We argue that communicating moral disapproval with the aim of adapting group members’ behavior might backfire ...
‘The human shield effect’: Human-wildlife co-occurrence patterns in the coffee forests of southwestern Ethiopia

Rodrigues, Patrícia; Dorresteijn, Ine; Gimenez, Olivier (Elsevier BV, 2023-09)

Understanding species (co)-occurrence patterns and how these are affected and mediated by humans is essential for the development of management plans to guide coexistence between humans and wildlife. Here, we evaluated two ...
Usutu virus avian and human infection after more than 25 years of circulation

Giglia, Giuseppe; Gianfilippo, Agliani; Mandara, Maria Teresa; de Bruin, Erwin; Gröne, Andrea; van den Brand, Judith M A (Springer, 2024-03)
From greenwashing to screenwashing?: How the tech industry plays around with children's future

Koning, Ina Maria; van den Eijnden, Regina J J M; Vossen, Helen G M (Akademiai Kiado, 2024-03-26)

In this viewpoint, we introduce the term 'screenwashing', which describes the phenomenon whereby social media platforms, such as TikTok and Instagram, pretend to be more socially responsible than they actually are. That ...
Respirable crystalline silica and lung cancer in community-based studies: impact of job-exposure matrix specifications on exposure-response relationships

Ohlander, Johan; Kromhout, Hans; Vermeulen, Roel; Portengen, Lützen; Kendzia, Benjamin; Savary, Barbara; Cavallo, Domenico; Cattaneo, Andrea; Migliori, Enrica; Richiardi, Lorenzo; Plato, Nils; Wichmann, Heinz-Erich; Karrasch, Stefan; Consonni, Dario; Landi, Maria Teresa; Caporaso, Neil E; Siemiatycki, Jack; Gustavsson, Per; Jöckel, Karl-Heinz; Ahrens, Wolfgang; Pohlabeln, Hermann; Fernández-Tardón, Guillermo; Zaridze, David; Jolanta Lissowska, Jolanta Lissowska; Beata Swiatkowska, Beata Swiatkowska; John K Field, John K Field; McLaughlin, John R; Demers, Paul A; Pandics, Tamas; Forastiere, Francesco; Fabianova, Eleonora; Schejbalova, Miriam; Foretova, Lenka; Janout, Vladimir; Mates, Dana; Barul, Christine; Brüning, Thomas; Behrens, Thomas; Straif, Kurt; Schüz, Joachim; Olsson, Ann; Peters, Susan (Finnish Institute of Occupational Health, 2024-04-01)

OBJECTIVES: The quantitative job-exposure matrix SYN-JEM consists of various dimensions: job-specific estimates, region-specific estimates, and prior expert ratings of jobs by the semi-quantitative DOM-JEM. We analyzed the ...
Evidence and Transnational Punitive Enforcement Proceedings in the European Union: The gathering, sharing, and use of evidence by Member States’ administrative and judicial authorities during transnational punitive enforcement proceedings in the EU’s integrated internal market and Area of Freedom, Security and Justice

de Vries, Aart Jacob (Eleven Publishing, 2024-04-05)

In many fields, enforcement of EU policies is performed by the Member States. In principle, Member States are free to decide how and by which means they enforce such policies, albeit under the observance of EU legal ...
The Monte Nuovo Episode and the Changing Balance between Nature and Heritage in Sixteenth-Century Descriptions of Naples

Hendrix, H.A. (De GruyterDe Gruyter, 2020-09-21)
The role of the Flb protein family in the life cycle of Aspergillus niger

Chen, Xiaoyi; Moran Torres, Juan P.; Wösten, Han A.B. (Springer, 2024-03-19)

Genes flbA-E are involved in sporulation and vegetative growth in Aspergillus nidulans. Inactivation of either of these genes results in a fluffy phenotype with delayed or even abolished sporulation. Previously, a ...
Postcolonial Theory and Crisis

ICON - Gender Studies; De Medeiros, Paulo; Ponzanesi, Sandra (De GruyterDe Gruyter, 2024-03-18)

In the millennial transition the prefix ‘post’ had come to signify more and more not just the realisation of a ‘coming after’ but also of the impossibility of not seeing the present as still very much working through the ...
Possible and Impossible Inferences From Reconstructed Evolutionary Processes using Phylogenies as an Example

Hohmann, Niklas (arXiv, 2024-03-04)

Our understanding of past evolutionary change is often based on reconstructions based on incomplete data, raising fundamental questions about the degree to which we can make reliable inferences about past evolutionary ...
