Urbanisation, Land Use and Soil Resource: Spatio-Temporal Analyses of Trends and Environmental Effects in Two Metropolitan Regions of Ghana (West Africa)
(2020-12-23)With more than half of the world’s population already urbanised, global sustainability is partly hinged on how the urbanisation process is impacting the natural environment. Therefore, it is important to characterise, ... -
Charakterisierung minimaler und maximaler Hemmkonzentrationen verschiedener Spurenelemente in Biogasprozessen und Entwicklung eines vereinfachten Bestimmungsverfahrens
(2020-08-24)For optimal biogas formation processes in biogas plants numerous operating parameters must be within certain limits. A sufficient supply of essential macro- and micronutrients must be guaranteed for the conversion and ... -
Automated data processing and numerical methods for travel-time based hydraulic tomography
(2020-08-13)Travel time based hydraulic tomography is a useful and promising technique for reconstructing the spatial distribution of aquifer hydraulic properties (e.g., hydraulic diffusivity). Simultaneous Iterative Reconstruction ... -
Transfer of Nutrient and Harmful Elements from Soil to Rice and Health Risk Assessments for the Vietnamese Population
(2019-10-11)“Transfer of nutrient and harmful elements from soil into rice and health risk assessments for the Vietnamese population” Main and trace element concentrations in paddy soils and corresponding rice plants collected along ... -
Geochemical Characterization of Tea Leaves (Camellia sinensis) and Soils for Provenance Studies based on Compositional Data Analysis
(2019-06-17)Provenance studies on tea (Camellia sinensis) are an important tool to reconstruct the origin of tea products. This thesis explores the potential of using solely the ionome (main and trace element concentrations) of tea ... -
Chemical water quality in Selenge River Basin in Mongolia: spatial-temporal patterns and land use influence
(2018-10-18)Water is essential for life and for all human activities but also for preserving the environment and its resources. Rapidly growing population, intensification of agriculture, industrialization, urbanization, development ... -
Transfer of Main and Trace Elements from Soil to Plant with an Emphasis on Trace Element Supply for Biogas Digestion Plants
(2018-10-01)In this study trace element uptake by different plants and plant species on different soils was investigated. A special focus was on the uptake of the elements Co, Ni, Mn and Mo, as those were essential elements for ... -
Bioenergy resources from waste, energy crops and forest in Los Ríos Region (southern Chile) - A systemic approach based on sustainability on designing a bioenergy area
(2016-07-01)As many countries today, Chile is facing the taking off of renewable energies. Los Ríos Region in south-central Chile shows one of the highest biomass productivity. Therefore, in the quest for a scientific analysis of ... -
Integrated approaches of social-ecological resilience assessment and urban resilience management
(2016-02-10)The urban system is a multi-interaction system, due to the rapid urbanization and intertwined vulnerability of the ecological system. It will be a challenge to maintain a sustainable development of the urban and urbanizing ... -
