Use of remotely sensed data to enhance estimation of aboveground biomass for the dry afromontane forest in south-central Ethiopia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Periodic assessment of forest aboveground biomass (AGB) is essential to regulate the impacts of the changing climate. However, AGB estimation using field-based sample survey (FBSS) has limited precision due to cost and ... -
Seasonal Harvest Patterns in Multispecies Fisheries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Fishers face multidimensional decisions: when to fish, what species to target, and how much gear to deploy. Most bioeconomic models assume single-species fisheries with perfectly elastic demand and focus on inter-seasonal ... -

Water scarcity and water quality: Identifying potential unintended harms and mitigation strategies in the implementation of the biosand filter in rural Tanzania
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Bottom-up public health interventions are needed which are built on an understanding of community perspectives. Project SHINE is a community-based participatory action research intervention focused on developing sustainable ... -
Growth inhibition in Raphidocelis subcapita – Evidence of nanospecific toxicity of silver nanoparticles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Silver, known for its antibacterial properties and for its toxicity to aquatic organisms, is one of the most frequently used nanomaterials and silver nanoparticles can be found in a range of consumer products as well as ... -
Frequency and time in recreational demand
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In the standard single-site travel cost model, it is assumed that time spent on-site is exogenous. This assumption results in a willingness to pay (WTP) for time on-site of zero, which may be less realistic for many urban ... -
Effect of Liquid Absorbent Pads and Packaging Parameters on Drip Loss and Quality of Chicken Breast Fillets
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Visible liquid inside food packages is perceived as unattractive to consumers, and may result in food waste—a significant factor that can compromise sustainability in food value chains. However, an absorber with overdimensioned ... -
