Abstract:
... In developed regions worldwide, so-called anti-consumers are increasingly resisting high-level consumption lifestyles or shifting to alternative forms of consumption. A general reduction in consumption levels is considered necessary to attain global sustainability goals. However, knowledge regarding the factors driving people to deliberately consume less and how anti-consumption affects individual ...

Abstract:
... In general, the LBK is considered a very assertive cultural phenomenon characterized by rapid expansion and subsequent high population density in agriculturally favorable areas. On the one hand, for the first time larger and long-term populated places were created, on the other hand, a strong colonial tendency is obvious. A closer look at the settlement areas on the upper Danube in Bavaria and Bad ...

Abstract:
... For forty years, Germany was cut in two, its internal border a legacy of the Second World War and ground zero of the Cold War. But the border region, shaped for decades by demographic and economic decline, became an ecological refuge for many of Germany’s endangered plant and animal species. When the wall fell in 1989, conservationists launched an effort to protect the former borderlands and conve ...

Abstract:
... The taxonomy of Gymnodinium and the Gymnodiniaceae is inconsistent, because the systematic position of the type species, G. fuscum, is elusive at present. Historical names of microscopic species are frequently ambiguous, making reliable determination difficult, although it is crucial to fully explore the biology of the organisms. We collected material at the type locality of a historical variety, ...

Abstract:
... This paper explores the case of peripheral settlement growth in the Greater Frankfurt (Main) region within current debates on global suburbanization. Within Germany’s sophisticated spatial planning regime, Greater Frankfurt’s system of regionalized land-use planning marks an ambitious initiative to contain urban sprawl. Nonetheless, expansive peripheral settlement growth, and socio-spatial polariz ...

Abstract:
... Flash flood research crucially relies on historical event information for hypothesis testing. However, flash flood science suffers from data scarcity. Due to the high effort for event data collection, few long-term and comprehensive flash flood datasets exist. Yet, to advance flash flood research, scientists should spend time on creating event datasets. Therefore, to reduce the data collection and ...

Abstract:
... This study starts from the assumption that, besides its more obvious techno-scientific and economic claims, the bioeconomy is primarily a political project where actors with different interests and strategies pursue different agendas. It thus proposes a reconceptualization of the wood-based bioeconomy network in Germany (WBN). For this purpose, a mixed methodological-approach that combines quantit ...

Abstract:
... Although biodiversity is generally diminishing, in some areas its conservation is expanding. However; the exact path of this expansion is uncertain. This can lead to problems of path-dependence and lock-in effects. Path dependence describes situations where history strongly influences present decisions and lock-in effects refer to situations where an earlier decision provides strong incentives to ...

Abstract:
... Renewable energy auctions have been lauded for bringing about price reductions. However, the methods applied in investigating such impacts have so far been inadequate and often do not allow conclusions to be drawn as to whether observed price reductions were caused by auctions or by other factors. We have analysed the outcomes of the first onshore wind auctions in Germany held in 2017 and 2018, ta ...

Abstract:
... After exposure of soils to anthropogenic organic chemicals non-extractable residues (NER) can be formed. The quantitative proportion of a compound which remains non-extractable is operationally defined by the extraction procedure employed and can be quantified only when using isotope labelled compounds (e.g. ¹⁴C or ¹³C). In Germany and the EU, there is no standardised procedure, how to determine N ...

Abstract:
... Biogas plants have to be continuously or periodically mixed to ensure the homogenization of fermenting and fresh substrate. Externally installed mixers provide easier access than submerged mixers but concerns of insufficient mixing deter many operators from using this technology. In this paper, a new approach to improve homogenization of the substrate mixture is proposed by optimizing external mix ...
