Ge, X. (author), Schaap, M. (author), de Vries, W. (author)Ammonia emissions to the atmosphere have a range of negative impacts on environmental quality, human health, and biodiversity. Despite the considerable efforts in quantifying spatially explicit ammonia emissions, there are significant uncertainties in ammonia emission estimates at regional scales. We aimed to improve the modeling of atmospheric...article 2023

(author)Dermal transfer of pesticide residues to human skin due to contact with treated crops, treated surfaces, or contaminated surfaces is an important route of exposure for operators, workers and possibly for bystanders and residents. However, information on dermal transfer data is limited and mainly available for workers. The aim of the present...article 2022

Witte, J.P.M. (author), Zaadnoordijk, W.J. (author), Buyse, J.J. (author)Since the nineteen fifties, groundwater levels in the Netherlands dropped more than as simulated by hydrological models. In the rural sandy part of the Netherlands, the difference amounts to approximately 0.3 m on average. The answer to the question of what or who caused this ‘background decline’ of groundwater tables may have juridical and...article 2019

Seaweed is one of the most promising aquaculture crops of the future. Seaweed components are used in many different industries such as food, animal feed, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, bioplastics and fuels. Needing only seawater, nutrients present and CO2, it is on its way to become a significant sustainable crop in the transition to a biobased...other 2018

(author)This paper presents a new perspective for the temporal variation of crop cultivation adoption during the period 6000-5400BP in Flevoland (central Netherlands) based on the spatial evolution of soils and hydrology. To determine the role of soil properties and groundwater level rise in the adoption of crop cultivation in wetlands, mapping of the...article 2015

(author)Due to mismatch of nutrients, high sodium concentration, growth inhibition or system failures, greenhouse growers with substrate-grown crops tend to discharge their drain water. To comply with Water Framework regulations, in future, they must re-use drain water streams as much as possible. With membrane distillation or reverse osmosis, about 80...article 2014

Use of supplementary lighting top screens and effects on greenhouse climate and return on investmentvan 't Ooster, A. (author), van Henten, E.J. (author), Janssen, E.G.O.N. (author), Bongaerts, E. (author), TNO Bouw en Ondergrond (author)Discomfort caused by light pollution from greenhouses that apply supplementary lighting is an issue in Dutch society nowadays. At this moment Dutch legislation requires an opaque screen that reduces light transmission of the greenhouse wall by 95%. In 2008 also the light transmission of the greenhouse roof must be reduced equally and...conference paper 2008
