van der Voorn, Tom (author), van den Berg, Caroline (author), Quist, J.N. (author), Kok, Kasper (author)The current COVID-19 pandemic has affected societies across the world while its economic impact has cut deeper than any recession since the Second World War. Climate change is potentially an even more disruptive and complex global challenge. Climate change could cause social and economic damage far larger than that caused by COVID-19. The...journal article 2022

Vijay, V. (author), Kapoor, Rimika (author), Priyanka Singh, P. (author), Hiloidhari, Moonmoon (author), Ghosh, Pooja (author)Clean energy transition via utilizing biomass resources has been projected as an important climate change mitigation strategy. A vital characteristic of biomass is its localized nature; therefore, bioenergy utilization should follow decentralized planning. Agrarian countries like India can take benefit of its large agricultural biomass waste...journal article 2022

Zhang, Chao (author), Tan, Yiqiu (author), Gao, Y. (author), Fu, Yongkang (author), Li, Jilu (author), Li, Shuai (author), Zhou, Xingye (author)The service performances of asphalt pavement, especially rutting, will be inevitably affected by climate change. However, existing studies have generally focused on the rutting depth and rutting life, and thus became insufficient for comprehensively evaluating the influence of climate change on rutting over the service life. A resilience...journal article 2022
