Neue Verordnung für Holz und Holzerzeugnisse tritt in Kraft

Am 3. März 2013 traten neue Rechtsvorschriften zur Bekämpfung des Handels mit illegal gewonnenem Holz in Kraft. Die neue EU-Verordnung für das Inverkehrbringen von Holz und Holzerzeugnissen betrifft alle am Holzhandel Beteiligten. Sie untersagt das Inverkehrbringen von Holz aus illegalem Holzeinschlag auf dem europäischen Markt, um zur Bewältigung des weltweiten Problems des illegalen Holzeinschlags beizutragen. Die neue Rechtsvorschrift gilt sowohl für eingeführte(s) als auch für im Inland erzeugtes Holz und hergestellte Holzerzeugnisse und umfasst eine breite Palette von Erzeugnissen, die von Papier und Zellstoff bis zu Massivholz und Holzfußböden reicht.

Monographs of Environmental Data for Active Substances in Veterinary Pharmaceuticals

This scientific opinion paper outlines existing problems related to data gaps, non-harmonized assessments, insufficient post-market control, and data transparency of pharmaceuticals, and identifies possible solutions through the introduction of a monograph system for active pharmaceutical substances. From ⁠ UBA ⁠'s point of view, monographs are the crucial bridge between risk assessment, risk communication and risk management and this across different regulatory areas. The current revision of the general pharmaceutical legislation of the EU offers the opportunity to establish a monograph system for active substances for both veterinary medicinal products and medicinal products for human use.

Navigation Lock Filling - Modeled Geometry and Physical Model Measurement Data

Navigation Lock Filling - Modeled Geometry and Physical Model Measurement Data This data set provides the geometry files and physical model measurement data for the filling process of a large navigation lock with a ship in the lock chamber from a water saving basin. The measured data contains water levels, pressure differences, forces on the ship and the opening height of the valves. The lock consists of a lock chamber with a pressure chamber underneath. Both chambers are hydraulically connected with vertical cylindrical filling nozzles inside the floor between both chambers. The three lateral saving basins are connected to the pressure chamber via two lateral culverts each of smoothly varying rectangular shape. Each saving basin has two of these connecting culverts. A vertical lifting valve in each culvert allows the controlled filling operation from the saving basins into the pressure chamber. In the experiment, the lock chamber is filled from the lowest saving basin. The physical model was constructed at a scale of 1:25. The provided data (geometry and model test results) is scaled to prototype scale by Froude's similitude. The data was used in the following publication: Thorenz, C., Schulze, L. (2021): Numerical Investigations of Ship Forces During Lockage. Journal of Coastal and Hydraulic Strucures. Please cite the paper when using the data.

Unlocking the Societal Potential for Change

As humanity navigates the complexities of human-environment interactions, interdisciplinary approaches that integrate psychological insights within the broader environmental discourse are essential for fostering meaningful engagement with sustainability and addressing global environmental concerns. In this publication the authors, who were participants of the “4th Summer School on Environmental Psychology” on Vilm Island in May/June 2023, explore distinct yet interconnected research topics, ranging from climate justice and emotional responses to sustainability strategies, incentives for pro-environmental behavior and the social implications of emerging technologies. In conclusion, these papers show how environmental psychology offers a multifaceted lens through which to examine and address pressing environmental challenges. These insights therefore offer valuable tools on how to further proceed on the United Nations Goal of living in harmony with nature on the global and local level.

Krauthausen data set

This data set comprises different types of data acquired at the Krauthausen test site. The data are arranged in different folders corresponding to the method used to collect the data. The different folders are: • Crosshole GPR data • Borehole deviation data • Cone penetration test data • Direct-push data (acquired by the UFZ Leipzig) • Flowmeter data • Grain size data • 3D aquifer models derived from multi-point statistical simulations Each folder includes a documentation-file which briefly explains the data structure and which provides additional information e.g. about the exact location of measurement points or about the original source of the data. Papers describing the experimental setup / processing of the data are included as well.

Natural Radionuclides in Groundwater (NORM) (WMS)

Considering water as the primary resource necessary for social life, agriculture, industry, and wealth, the importance of groundwater investigation is clear. Apart from many other pollutants, this work focusses on geogenic uranium (U) and radium (Ra), which both stand for natural radionuclides (NORM) that need to be considered frame of groundwater exploration and monitoring programmes due to their specific mobility and chemo-/radiotoxicity. As investigation of U and – to a lesser extent - Ra is done by an increasing number of scientific working groups, the global dataset is improving continuously. In order to give a summarized overview on available and recent literature, scientific papers, reports, and governmental documents have been reviewed for U-238 mass concentrations and Ra-226 and Ra-228 activity concentrations and collected in tables and global maps. Further natural isotopes of U and Ra have been rarely subject of investigation. The collected data were evaluated and interpreted in frame of an associated scientific publication (see citation). From the available data it can be concluded that high geogenic U occur mainly under oxidizing conditions and carbonate rich groundwater, which might be seen as indicator for elevated U concentrations. Certain geological formations, as for example sedimentary, granitic, and volcanic host rocks, promote high U concentrations in groundwater. For geogenic Ra, the search for definite indications proved difficult, since less clear correlation is given for any observed factor. In a global perspective, the most promising evidence for elevated Ra are highly reducing redox conditions, as well as the occurrence of Fe/Mn mineral phases. Furthermore, barite represents a sink for Ra due to its ability to incorporate Ra isotopes. Dissolution of those mineral phases eventually results in co-dissolution of Ra, when Ra is found in host rocks of investigated aquifers, or downstream of such groundwater reservoirs. Furthermore, cation exchange might enhance Ra mobility process, especially in case of sedimentary aquifers with low sorption capacity and/or aquifers with high salinity. Given those chemical requirements for the occurrence of U and Ra, a negative correlation between mother and daughter nuclide can be established. When knowledge on present geological and geochemical constraints is available, elevated U and Ra concentrations might be predictable, as long as anthropogenic influence is excluded.

METOP GOME-2 - Ozone (O3) - Global

The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment-2 (GOME-2) instrument continues the long-term monitoring of atmospheric trace gas constituents started with GOME / ERS-2 and SCIAMACHY / Envisat. Currently, there are three GOME-2 instruments operating on board EUMETSAT's Meteorological Operational satellites MetOp-A, -B, and -C, launched in October 2006, September 2012, and November 2018, respectively. GOME-2 can measure a range of atmospheric trace constituents, with the emphasis on global ozone distributions. Furthermore, cloud properties and intensities of ultraviolet radiation are retrieved. These data are crucial for monitoring the atmospheric composition and the detection of pollutants. DLR generates operational GOME-2 / MetOp level 2 products in the framework of EUMETSAT's Satellite Application Facility on Atmospheric Chemistry Monitoring (AC-SAF). GOME-2 near-real-time products are available already two hours after sensing. The operational ozone total column products are generated using the algorithm GDP (GOME Data Processor) version 4.x integrated into the UPAS (Universal Processor for UV / VIS Atmospheric Spectrometers) processor for generating level 2 trace gas and cloud products. The new improved DOAS-style (Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy) algorithm called GDOAS, was selected as the basis for GDP version 4.0 in the framework of an ESA ITT. GDP 4.x performs a DOAS fit for ozone slant column and effective temperature followed by an iterative AMF / VCD computation using a single wavelength.
