[PROJECT] BIODOS - Development of Biological Dosimetry systems for monitoring the impact of solar UVB radiation on the biosphere and human health
ID: ENV4950044
Start date: 1996-02-01, End date: 1998-07-31
It is the aim of the project, to develop and calibrate reliable field dosimetry systems for monitoring environmental UV radiation based on complementary biological UV dosimeters. The first objective is to characterise existing biological UV dosimeters according to a standard p...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Cross-cutting paper, stock and flows: Interaction and substitution (Stefan Schleicher)
Despite the well-known definition of sustainability in the Brundtland Report (WVED, 1987) it is still controversial how this quality of an economy could be put into a coherent frame-work of economic analysis.
We attempt, therefore, a rather pragmatic approach, by making the ...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Working paper, comparison Part 2: Model simulations. Impact of CO2 taxes on GDP, energy, and CO2 emissions. TranSust Working Paper, 2004
As a second step for obtaining a better understanding of the different model structures and their impact on policy analysis a set of standardized simulations was agreed upon. The following procedure was applied.
First for each model a business-as-usual scenario was made up to...
