Forest Resource Conservation in Nepal (FORCONEPAL)
Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
Managing natural resources to sustain human livelihood needs while minimizing the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services is, arguably, the greatest challenge facing our generation. Top-down approaches to preserve natural resources, e.g. protected areas, have had limited success in integrating local social needs with natural resource management. Local communities use and manage more than 10% o ...

Advanced materials for batteries (MAT4BAT)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
"Li-ion technologies initiated in the 90’ at a fast development pace thanks mainly to emerging ICTs with more than 20 GWh sold in 2010. Soon, it appeared as a credible technology for electrical vehicles as it could provide average energy densities of about 140 Wh/kg. However and since then,major breakthroughs have been expected to reach higher storage levels of 250 Wh/kg on battery system level wi ...

Quantifying Aerobic Methane Oxidation in the Ocean: Calibration and palaeo application of a novel proxy (AMOProx)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
Methane, a key greenhouse gas, is cycled by microorganisms via two pathways, aerobically and anaerobically. Research on themarine methane cycle has mainly concentrated on anaerobic processes. Recent biomarker work has provided compellingevidence that aerobic methane oxidation (AMO) can play a more significant role in cycling methane emitted from sediments thanpreviously considered. AMO, however, i ...

Development of the Future Rail Freight System to Reduce the Occurrences and Impact of Derailment (D-RAIL)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
D-RAIL will focus on freight traffic, identifying root causes of derailment of particular significance to freight vehicles, which have a wider range of operating parameters (as a result of the huge range in loads, speeds and maintenance quality) than passenger vehicles. One key question that will be studied is how independent minor faults (e.g., a slight track twist and a failing bearing) could co ...
