A framework for the assessment of marine litter impacts in life cycle impact assessment

open access: yes, 2021
Purpose Marine litter, mostly plastics, is a growing environmental problem. Environmental decision makers are beginning to take actions and implement regulations that aim to reduce plastic use and waste mismanagement. Nevertheless, life cycle assessment (

ReCiPe2016: a harmonised life cycle impact assessment method at midpoint and endpoint level

open access: yesThe International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment, 2016
PurposeLife cycle impact assessment (LCIA) translates emissions and resource extractions into a limited number of environmental impact scores by means of so-called characterisation factors. There are two mainstream ways to derive characterisation factors,

Assessing LEDBAT's Delay Impact [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Communications Letters, 2013
The major goal of the LEDBAT congestion control mechanism is to limit the amount of queuing delay that it causes. Using simulations, we show two aspects of the mechanism that may sometimes make LEDBAT's delay impact quite significant: first, it updates its "base delay" every 10 minutes, but may measure its own induced delay in doing so, even in the ...

Flurochloridone induces responses of free radical reactions and energy metabolism disorders to BRL-3A cell

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Flurochloridone (FLC), a wildly used herbicide, could induce hepatotoxicity after long-term exposure to male rat, in addition to its reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent reproductive toxicity.
