Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Water governance is increasingly influenced by a paradox at the nexus of environmental scarcity and food security. Escalating water scarcity crises coincide with geopolitical disruptions that have exposed the fragility of global food supply chains, prompting states to expand domestic food production at the expense of water conservation ...

Optimizing vibration parameters of thick single-layer concrete pavements: results of the Belgian Monocrete project [PDF]
peer reviewedThick single-layer concrete pavements are increasingly popular in Europe because they help tackle the increasing traffic loads on highways, airport taxiways, or industrial logistic platforms. They require less maintenance than other pavement

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Local environmental politics in China is often said to be dominated by state‐controlled modes of multi‐level governance. However, top‐down governance is embedded within and transformed by local politics, adding complexity to governance practices and environmental outcomes.

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This research examines how wrongdoers may use narration to ‘work through’ a transgression committed, towards self‐forgiveness and reconciliation. In Study 1 (N = 30), reflexive thematic analysis was used to identify narrative types observable in wrongdoers’ storying of a recent interpersonal transgression, informing our conceptual framework ...
