Understanding what drives deadwood decomposition over time is important to understanding forest carbon dynamics. Using a tailored experimental design in a temperate forest environment, it was found that initially wood characteristics explained the decomposition rate, while subsequently bark characteristics …

The catalytic conversion of oleic acid to aromatics (benzene, toluene, and xylenes, BTX) over a granular H-ZSM-5/Al2O3 catalyst (ϕ 1.2–1.8 mm, 10 g loading) was investigated in a continuous bench-scale fixed-bed reactor (10 g oleic acid h–1). A peak carbon yield of aromatics of 27.4% was obtained at …

Een recente ontwikkeling in kalversector, is de verhoging van de transportleeftijd van kalveren in Duitsland van 14- naar 28-dagen. Ook op Europees niveau wordt er gesproken om de 28-dagenregeling in te voeren in Nederland. De regeling lijkt simpel, maar de praktijk is nog niet optimaal ingericht voor …

Both consumer and industrial electronics have become increasingly complex and advanced in recent years. High performance semiconductor devices are essential to the function of these electronics, which is why rapid growth of the microelectronics industry and major technological advancements in this field …

To determine the effect of a standardized program for family participation in essential care activities in the ICU on symptoms of anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress and satisfaction among relatives, and perceptions and experiences of ICU healthcare providers (HCPs). A standardized program to facilitate …

Objectives Providing an overview of the clinimetric properties of the steep ramp test (SRT), a short-term maximal exercise test, to assess cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), describing its underlying physiological responses, and summarizing its applications in current clinical and research practice. Data …

Evaluation of the hydrological performance of grassed swales usually needs long-term monitoring data. At present, suitable techniques for simulating the hydrological performance using limited monitoring data are not available. Therefore, current study aims to investigate the relationship between saturated …

Several interventions have been developed to support families living with parental mental illness (PMI). Recent evidence suggests that programmes with whole-family components may have greater positive effects for families, thereby also reducing costs to health and social care systems. This review aimed …

Dit onderzoek onderzocht of tweeëndertig studenten klas drie (experimentele groep), van Yuverta Amersfoort, die de Bloemwerklessen volgen bewust leren plannen, monitoren en controleren en evalueren door een interventie. Het leerarrangement (interventie), ontworpen door Skills-Netherlands, legt de nadruk …
