Raap, Caspar (author), van der Vlist, Deborah (author), Kooiker, Jasper (author), Julia Sumarthinningrum Dahlan, Julia (author), Duan, Yu (author)The Netherlands has created a large nitrogen pollution problem in its soils, which is harming biodiversity. By intensifying and industrialized farming, by importing animal feed for dairy production and fertilizer for crop farming, too much nitrogen has accumulated in the soil. Consequently, ecological processes are disturbed due to...student report 2024

Deinega, Mariia (author), Anghileri, E. (author), Wang, Yuanjie (author), Dijkstra, M.C.J. (author)Cities are responsible for a great amount of CO2 emissions related to transportation (CBS). However, the greatest amount of CO2 is caused by private transport and is mainly associated with peri-urban (the peri-urban area is a common place to live for the natural environment and also near accessibility to city facilities) and rural areas due to...student report 2024

Poggione Garcia, A. (author), van der Meer, Brenda (author), van der Meer, Harma (author), Bange, Rein (author), Klootwijk, R. (author)The emission of CO2 is a significant contributor to global warming, with the mobility sector being a major source. The EU has set a goal to achieve climate neutrality by 2050, requiring substantial CO2 reduction efforts, particularly in densely populated regions like the Rhine-Delta (RDR). This region’s extensive mobility network, serving both...student report 2024

Xu, Shiming (author)Shanghai has experienced rapid urbanization over the past 30 years, with a large number of rural areas being transformed into semi-urbanized areas with mixed functions. The main drivers were top-down state-led development, market forces, and bottom-up rural industrialization. The scale and speed of this process have far exceeded expectations,...master thesis 2024

Feberwee, Kai (author)Throughout sub-Saharan Africa, agricultural activities in urban and peri-urban areas are threatened by urban sprawl. These activities are important not just for the livelihoods of those who take part in it, but also for the food security of the city. Historically, in Kumasi 40% of the crops in the city are sourced from urban and peri-urban...master thesis 2023

Gomes, S.L. (author), Hermans, L.M. (author), Chakraborty, Shreya (author), Luft, Sarah (author), Butsch, Carsten (author), Sarathi Banerjee, Partha (author)Peri-urban transformations in emerging economies like India demand scientific attention given their impact on global environmental change processes. Some studies examine past or ongoing peri-urban adaptation processes, but insight into future adaptation needs and aspirations of peri-urban communities is lacking. Also, it is unknown how the high...journal article 2023

Brouwer, Juliette (author)In the current era of global warming and urbanisation, it has become imperative to change the urban rhythm. Our current mobility habits make human and nature unhappy and unhealthy. This problem is apparent in sub-urban neighbourhoods, that often experience low connectivity and low local vitality. The 15-minute city is a model that puts focus on...master thesis 2022

Eggink, Jan (author)With the climate change and energy transition becoming evident and ever so relevant, industrialised regions focussed on fossil fuels need to rethink their socio-economic plan. Furthermore, urban designers are obliged to rethink the energy paradigm. This report combines energy landscape and resilient region theory and applies it on the peri-urban...master thesis 2022

THOMAS, NAYANTARA (author)When we think about the fact that 70% of the earth is covered by water, it may be easy to assume that water is abundant and that it would never have to be an issue in terms of having a constant supply to drink. In reality, it is a very complex matter for everyone to be able to access and drink safe water. Water is essential to maintain life on...master thesis 2020

Gomes, S.L. (author)Water resources in the Ganges delta are undergoing drastic change as a result of urbanisation. Increasing demand for water due to urban expansion around cities like Kolkata (India) and Khulna (Bangladesh) is affecting groundwater access in nearby peri-urban communities. Peri-urban areas lie outside the formal purview of urban institutions, while...doctoral thesis 2019

Mittal, Aashna (author)The city of Kolkata in India is undergoing rapid urbanization and expansion. As the city expands and engulfs its neighboring areas, it threatens the sustainability of natural resources in peri-urban areas – spaces that are gradually transitioning from rural to urban areas. One such natural resource, groundwater, forms the lifeline of peri-urban...master thesis 2019
