Wrangling Reactive Nitrogen: Strategies for Mitigating Pollution

Wrangling Reactive Nitrogen: Strategies for Mitigating Pollution

The role of technology and policy in mitigating regional nitrogen pollution

Human activity greatly influences nitrogen (N) pollution in urbanized and adjacent areas. We comprehensively studied the N cycling in an urban–rural complex system, the Greater Hangzhou Area (GHA) in southeastern China. Our results indicated that subsurface N accumulation doubled, riverine N export tripled and atmospheric N pollutants increased 2.5 times within the GHA from 1980–2004. Agricultu...

A New Modelling Approach of Evaluating Preventive and Reactive Strategies for Mitigating Supply Chain Risks

Supply chains are becoming more complex and vulnerable due to globalization and interdependency between different risks. Existing studies have focused on identifying different preventive and reactive strategies for mitigating supply chain risks and advocating the need for adopting specific strategy under a particular situation. However, current research has not addressed the issue of evaluating...

Mitigating Strategies for Carbon Dioxide Problems

Ranking wrangling

will consist of biofuels rather than conventional petrol or diesel by 2020. But this component of the Commission's goals is just one that has been causing concern for researchers. In the face of rapidly rising demand for crops to be used as food, and growing worries about the true environmental benefit of some potential biofuels, concerns have been raised about this EU target. Stavros Dimas, th...
