Explaining Government Spending: a Cointegration Approach [PDF]

open access: yes
Based on a comprehensive theoretical model we investigate the determinants of government spending. Besides GDP, commonly associated with either Walra´s law or Keynesian macro stabilization policies, we consider some variables identified with the public ...

Certification of public organic procurement in Denmark, Finland, Italy and Norway as compared to Germany [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the iPOPY project (innovative Public Organic food Procurement for Youth), one of the tasks was to map the challenges linked to the supply chains of organic food, and to which extent the participating countries have developed any form of certification ...

The macroeconomic cost of catastrophic pollinator declines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We develop a computable general equilibrium (CGE) approach to assess the macroeconomic impacts of productivity shocks due to catastrophic losses of pollination ecosystem services at global and regional scales.

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

Experimental data from the development of Lymnaea stagnalis embryo test for chemicals hazard assessment

open access: yesData in Brief
This study aimed to contribute to the development of an embryo-test using the gastropod Lymnaea stagnalis, identified by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) as a potential invertebrate test animal model.

Golden‐Ratio–Guided Aperiodic Architected Metamaterials with Simultaneously Enhanced Strength and Toughness

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Guided by the golden ratio, a class of aperiodic architected metamaterials is introduced to address the intrinsic trade‐off between strength and toughness. By unifying local geometric heterogeneity with global order, the golden‐ratio‐guided aperiodic architecture promotes spatial delocalization of damage tolerence regions, leading to more tortuous ...

Roles of sperm serine proteases in mammalian fertilization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Fertilization is a unique process whereby two gametes from female(egg) and male(sperm) unite to produce offspring whose genetic makeup is deifferent from both parents. The bisexual ...Thesis (Ph. D. in Agriculture)--University of Tsukuba, (A), no.

Harmonizing the Pyrene and Ether Groups in Covalent Triazine Polymers for Highly Effective H2O2 Photosynthesis via One‐Step Two‐Electron Oxygen Reduction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The pyrene and ether groups are incorporated into the covalent triazine polymer (CTP) structure. The synergistic effect of the two functional groups endows CTP with better electron transfer, light absorption, and oxygen activation properties. An impressive apparent quantum yield (13.2% @420 nm) and a remarkable solar‐to‐chemical conversion efficiency ...
