The influence of land use and mobility policy on travel behavior : a comparative case study of Flanders and the Netherlands [PDF]
, 2015 Numerous transportation studies have indicated that the local built environment can have an important effect on travel behavior; people living in suburban neighborhoods travel more by car than people living in urban neighborhoods. In this paper, however,

Long‐Term Elevated CO2 Improves Soil Health and Rice Yields in Paddy Fields
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Combining the two longest‐running rice free‐air CO2 enrichment experiments with a global data synthesis, this study demonstrates that long‐term elevated CO2 consistently enhances soil health. In rice paddies, this improvement sustains the CO2 fertilization effect over decades.

Architecture Image Studies, 2020 The society of the network is one that is more connected than ever through the ubiquity of cybernetic activity, yet this has been paralleled by fragmentation of space and de-localisation of place. This speculative project explores a re-conception of perceived space in response to contemporary trends in social practice. Contextualised against a backdrop
