Ammonia (NH3) emissions have large impacts on air quality and nitrogen deposition, influencing human health and the well-being of sensitive ecosystems. Large uncertainties exist in the "bottom-up" NH3 emission inventories due to limited source information ...
The countries in Western Africa have the greatest potential for renewable energy generation in the world and are likely to be vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change. Unfortunately, only a few of them have tapped into this potential, as non-ren ...
Air pollution is a major environmental health risk and it contributes to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and excess mortality worldwide. The adverse health effects have been associated with the inhalation of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and indu ...
The Iron and Steel Industry is one of the most carbon-intensive in the European Union, and to meet the climate agreement objectives for 2050, it must dramatically reduce its environmental footprint. The present study analyzes the potential for CO2 emission ...
Precisely predicting the future is an almost impossible challenge. However, predicting possible trend-lines is a more common thing. Current greenhouses gases emissions and climate change are among the most worrying issues humanity will face in a near futur ...
This thesis presents the first large-scale assessment of past, present and future impacts of climate change on river temperatures in Switzerland. Water temperature is a crucial factor influencing, among others, the health of aquatic ecosystems, the industr ...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) evasion from inland waters is an important component of the global carbon cycle. However, it remains unknown how global change affects CO2 emissions over longer time scales. Here, we present seasonal and annual fluxes of CO2 emissions ...
The use of oxygen-enriched air (OEA) is an important strategy for reducing process cost and CO2 emissions in several industrial processes. Membrane-based processes, attributing to their high energy efficiency, are promising alternatives to cryogenic distil ...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere from running waters are estimated to be four times greater than the total carbon (C) flux to the oceans. However, these fluxes remain poorly constrained because of substantial spatial and temporal variabilit ...
Probabilistic arguments about the existence of technological life beyond Earth traditionally refer to the Drake equation to draw possible estimates of the number of technologically advanced civilizations releasing, either intentionally or not, electromagne ...
