Abstract This study evaluated the effects of vegetation and internal water storage (IWS) on evapotranspiration (ET), hydrologic performance, and water quality in bioretention mesocosms. Twelve mesocosms were configured as planted/free-drainage (PF), planted/IWS (PI), unplanted/free-drainage (UF), and …

A large-scale field experiment was established in the Dubbele Dijk polder (Groningen, The Netherlands) to compare regenerative and conventional farming systems under identical crop rotations. The site presents a rare experimental condition: the upper 80 cm of topsoil was removed during construction of …

This inaugural volume, Breaking Barriers: Accelerating Transitions, brings together papers and abstracts presented at the Conference on Energy, Livestock, and Mobility Transitions, part of the New Energy Forum in Groningen. The publication reflects both the rapid development of the energy transition …

The integration of biomethane into existing gas distribution networks is a key component of the energy transition, but its implementation is often limited by local network constraints. This study investigates the impact of local pressure losses on biomethane injection capacity in a real-world low-pressure …

Small wind turbines face significant challenges in achieving commercial viability due to lower efficiency and higher energy costs compared to utility-scale systems and competing renewable technologies. Counter-rotating dual-rotor wind turbines (CR-DRWTs) with dual-rotational armature configurations offer …

In de gezondheidszorg zijn datasets van klinische onderzoeken vaak hoogdimensionaal en hebben ze een kleine steekproefomvang, wat het risico op overfitting vergroot. Bovendien richt onderzoek in deze context zich doorgaans niet alleen op de nauwkeurigheid van de resulterende modellen, maar ook op de …

Technieken op het gebied van machine learning (ML) worden op grote schaal toegepast in de gezondheidszorg, variërend van precisiegeneeskunde tot de mogelijkheid van preventieve zorg. Een algemeen probleem bij klinische studies is de combinatie van hoge dimensionaliteit en kleine steekproefomvang, wat …

This study investigates the integration of biochar production with CCS as a hybrid biomass-based CDR pathway that could enhance net carbon sequestration while reducing pyrolysis-related CO2 emissions. Biochar and BECCS are often treated as separate options, even though they rely on similar biomass supply …

Local energy transitions are promoted as means to achieve decarbonization, ensure democratic participation by local communities in energy decision-making, and foster social acceptance of renewable energy projects. However, despite the growing maturity of energy technologies and increased policy support, …

The increasing penetration of renewable energy (RE) and hydrogen technologies is reshaping the operational requirements of modern decarbonised energy systems, necessitating advanced control strategies to coordinate renewable generation, hydrogen storage, and heterogeneous end‐use demands. This paper …
