Mining of Radioactive Raw Materials as an Origin of the Nuclear Fuel Chain [PDF]
Acta Montanistica Slovaca, 2007 The mining of radioactive raw materials may be considered as an origin of the nuclear fuel chain and thus determines the amount of radioactive wastes which have to be stored safety in the final stage of the fuel chain.

Analytical Modeling of Heat Transfer and Deformation Around a Circular Cavity in Elastic Ground
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The subsurface is increasingly exploited to host energy, utilities, and infrastructure systems that interact with surrounding soils and rocks through their thermal and functional operation. Prominent examples are provided by energy geostructures, district heating networks, buried power cables, steam and water pipes, and underground nuclear ...

Azole antifungal contaminants disrupt mycorrhizal function and risk agricultural sustainability
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Global food production is increasingly threatened by soil degradation, climate change and the rising costs of synthetic fertilisers. Circular agriculture, which promotes resource reuse, is a promising solution, but using treated wastewater and biosolids in farming introduces risks from emerging contaminants like pharmaceutical residues.

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.

THE AESTHETICS OF URBAN METABOLISM: Landscape, Design and the Politics of In/Visibility
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract In this article, we chart the evolving aesthetic contours of urban metabolism across London, focusing on the River Lea and Thamesmead to the north and south of the River Thames, respectively. We begin in the nineteenth century, when these two sites formed critical nodes within a new sewerage system that relegated the city’s circulatory flows ...
