Nature is perceived and valued in starkly different and often conflicting ways. This paper presents the rationale for the inclusive valuation of nature's contributions to people (NCP) in decision making, as well as broad methodological steps for doing so. While developed within the context of the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), this approach is more widel

In this paper a simple analytical method is introduced for calculating the overall thermal conductivity of a twin pipe in district heating network. The method is developed based on calculating the conductive and convective heat transfer around the casing pipe in different perimetral sections. Temperature inside the supply and return pipes and also over the heating pipe is measured on different poi

10TAL nr 17/18 Ukraina är en unik intro­duk­tion till sam­tida ukrainsk lit­te­ra­tur, konst och kul­tur­de­batt. Vi pre­sen­te­rar 25 ukrainska för­fat­tare, över­sät­tare och konst­nä­rer, som alla på ett eller annat sätt för­hål­ler sig till kri­get, inva­sio­nen och lit­te­ra­tu­rens roll i dagens Ukraina. 10TALs num­mer är det första någon­sin som helt foku­se­rar på Ukrainas sam­tida lit­te­

The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA) has been installed at the GANIL facility, Caen-France. This set-up exploits the stable and radioactive heavy-ions beams delivered by the cyclotron accelerator complex of GANIL. Additionally, it benefits from a large palette of ancillary detectors and spectrometers to address in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy of exotic nuclei. The set-up has been designed to coupl

PURPOSE: Welders are exposed to airborne particles from the welding environment and often develop symptoms work-related from the airways. A large fraction of the particles from welding are in the nano-size range. In this study we investigate if the welders' airways are affected by exposure to particles derived from gas metal arc welding in mild steel in levels corresponding to a normal welding day

Habitat connectivity is central for life-cycle progression for migrating organisms. Passage of hydropower dams is associated with mortality, delay, and migratory failure for migrating fish, and the need for remedial measures to facilitate passage is widely recognized. Lately, nature-like fishways have been promoted for upstream migrating fish, and low-sloping turbine intake racks for downstream mi
