Asphalted parking lots are environmental filters for multiple propagule dispersal and pollination strategies

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Understanding community assembly for wild species in anthropogenic settings has become increasingly important as biodiversity and ecosystem services are threatened by development pressures. Urban hardscape habitats such as parking lots are widespread, extreme, terrestrial anthropogenic environments that influence plant community assembly by way of ...

Functional design of warm mix additives and its influence on the performance of high-content SBS-modified asphalt

Case Studies in Construction Materials
FT wax is one of the most widely used organic warm mix additives due to its ability to significantly reduce the mixing and compaction temperatures of asphalt mixtures. However, its use is often accompanied by challenges, including poor compatibility with

Warm mix asphalt : Mechanical performances assessment and bonding quality measurement by thermal contact resistance [PDF]

, 2012
The classical asphalt mix manufacturing commonly requires the heating and the complete drying of aggregates. The induced energy cost has opened the way to develop alternatives processes with low energy/ carbon materials such as Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA ...

Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.

EAACI Guidelines on the Importance of Green Space in Urban Environments for Allergy and Asthma Prevention

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The allergy and asthma epidemic in urban societies following World War II is mostly caused by changes in the environment, diet and lifestyle. Disconnection of urban populations from the wider environment has reduced the protective factors building up immunological resilience.

Repeated injection of pooled frozen allogeneic umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stromal cells in 5 flat‐racing horses

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Tendinopathies in racehorses are challenging to treat, and restoring normal tendon composition remains elusive despite extensive research. Equine multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have shown promise for tendon repair, and various sources of MSC have been described.
