The FAO estimates that food supplies need to increase by 70% to feed a growing population of 9 billion people by 2050. The changes in agricultural practices required to grow more tend to exert higher demand on resources and put eco-system services at risk ...
Food security is a crucial topic in sustainability science. Agricultural land occupies approximately 37–38% of the Earth’s land surface, and about one third of the EU’s environmental impact is caused by the current food system. Further, feeding the world’s ...
Given the great concern about phosphorus (P) resource depletion, it's promising to recover P from waste activated sludge (WAS) especially for agricultural application. To this end, it's necessary to understand the P speciation and fractionation within the ...
A transition towards a circular economy of phosphorus (P) in Switzerland is a multi-faceted challenge as P use is subject to a variety of influencing factors comprising policy interventions, consumption trends, or technological innovations on different spa ...
As an opportunity to discuss “Teaching in Research,” at EDAR’s Fourth Rencontre, I will be sharing my past experience in teaching without a Ph.D. and why I have decided to invest in obtaining a Ph.D. I shall discuss the differences between teaching with an ...
Refining Biomass Residues for Sustainable Energy and Bioproducts: Technology, Advances, Life Cycle Assessment and Economics is a one-stop reference on the biorefinery of various kinds of residue and waste feedstock for the sustainable production of biofuel ...
Mapping with Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs whose weight does not exceed 5 kg) is gaining importance in applications, such as corridor mapping, road and pipeline inspections, or mapping of large areas with homogeneous surface structure, e.g. forest or agricul ...
Rain-fed farming is the primary livelihood of semi-arid west Africa. Changes in land cover have the potential to affect precipitation, the critical resource for production. Turbulent flux measurements from two eddy-covariance towers and additional observat ...
The introduction of regional planning to Turkey dates to late 1950s in parallel to the postwar development discourse brewed under the agency of the Marshall Plan. The financial and technical assistance programs of the Marshall Plan and the United Nations p ...
This article discusses the problem of time registration between navigation and imaging components on Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs). Accurate mapping with MAVs is gaining importance in applications such as corridor mapping, road and pipeline inspections or m ...
