Bergstra, A.D. (author), Trijssenaar-Buhre, I.J.M. (author), de Bekker-Grob, E.W. (author), Burdorf, A. (author)The release of hazardous materials due to transport accidents can have major health consequences for bystanders. The number of casualties will partly be determined by their protective behaviour. This study describes a three-step approach to predict health consequences of protective behaviour (for example, hiding or escaping) of bystanders in the...article 2022

Gusatu, L.F. (author), Zuidema, C. (author), Faaij, A. (author)Growing EU energy ambitions in the North Sea region are urging for an accelerated deployment of large-scale renewable energy (RE) infrastructure, with offshore wind farms (OWF) playing an essential role. However, implementing the current EU targets is limited by the competing spatial claims between existing sea uses and OWFs and uncertainties...article 2022

(author)The combination of an exacerbated workload and impermeable nature of the personal protective equipment (PPE) worn by COVID-19 healthcare workers increases heat strain. We aimed to compare the prevalence of heat strain symptoms before (routine care without PPE) versus during the COVID-19 pandemic (COVID-19 care with PPE), identify risk factors...article 2022

(author), Buijtenhuijs, D. (author), Krop, E. (author), Huss, A. (author), Duyzer, J.H. (author)Background Pesticides can be transported from the site of application to homes via different routes and lead to exposure of residents, raising concerns regarding health effects. We built a deterministic model framework (OBOmod) to assess exposure of residents living near fields where pesticides are applied. Methods OBOmod connects five...article 2022
