REDD+ is moving beyond readiness and piloting into real implementation, where measured verified emission reductions can result in payments to countries or subnational governments [...]

Cellular Vehicle to Everything (C-V2X) in 5G communications has attracted researchers' attention due advantages such as higher throughput, data rate and lower delay, etc. However, achieving Quality of Service (QoS) disseminating emergency messages is a challenging task frequent topology changes concurrent link losses between vehicles. To address this issue, we propose the QoS guaranteed Routing...

BACKGROUND To implement the REDD+ mechanism (Reducing Emissions for Deforestation and Forest Degradation, countries need to prioritize areas to combat future deforestation CO2 emissions, identify the drivers of deforestation around which to develop mitigation actions, and quantify and value carbon for financial mechanisms. Each comes with its own methodological challenges, and existing approach...

Forest management strategies and policies such as REDD (reduced emissions from deforestation and forest degradation) may have unintentional implications for forest sectors in countries not targeted by such policies. The success of a policy effort like REDD would result in a significant reduction in deforestation and forest degradation and an ensuing reduction in the supply of natural forest tim...

The bldC locus, required for formation of aerial hyphae in Streptomyces coelicolor, was localized by map-based cloning to the overlap between cosmids D17 and D25 of a minimal ordered library. Subcloning and sequencing showed that bldC encodes a member of a previously unrecognized family of small (58- to 78-residue) DNA-binding proteins, related to the DNA-binding domains of the MerR family of t...

This thesis investigates the question how emissions from land-use displacement can be assessed and accounted for, using the example of carbon-leakage accounting in the planned UNFCCC mechanism on ‘Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation’ (REDD). REDD serves here as example of an international forest conservation policy that might be effective locally but could lead to displ...
