Comparative Life Cycle Assessment of Carbon Dioxide Mineralization Using Industrial Waste as Feedstock to Produce Cement Substitutes
The mineralization of carbon dioxide offers a way to permanently sequester carbon while producing construction materials, combining the concepts of carbon capture and utilization (CCU) and carbon capture and storage (CSS). However, it is important to evaluate different mineralization processes in…Systems methods for analyzing trade-offs between food security and conserving biodiversity
The endeavor for greater food security has caused trade-offs between increasing agricultural production and conserving habitat of threatened species. We take a novel approach to analyze these trade-offs by applying and comparing three systems methods (systems diagrams, influence matrices, and land…Die Ermittlung der Ressourceneffizienz und der Klimabelastung von Bauwerken
Die Bauindustrie ist der Industriesektor, der in der Wirtschaft für die höchsten Umweltbelastungen, in Form von Treibhausgas (THG)-Emissionen und der Nutzung natürlicher Ressourcen, verantwortlich ist. Die Umsetzung ambitionierter Maßnahmen im Bausektor für mehr Klimaschutz und Ressourceneffizienz…Investigating the representation of heatwaves from an ensemble of km-scale regional climate simulations within CORDEX-FPS convection
Heatwaves (HWs) are high-impact phenomena stressing both societies and ecosystems. Their intensity and frequency are expected to increase in a warmer climate over many regions of the world. While these impacts can be wide-ranging, they are potentially influenced by local to regional features such as…Editorial: Interactions between land surface and climate
