Top-down characterization of resource use in LCA: from problem definition of resource use to operational characterization factors for resource inaccessibility of elements in a short-term time perspective
PurposeWhen resources are extracted and used by society, they are not necessarily lost for future generations. Therefore, recent publications on...

A new life cycle impact assessment methodology for assessing the impact of abiotic resource use on future resource accessibility
PurposeAbiotic resource is included as an impact category in life cycle impact assessment (LCIA). The most widely accepted LCIA method is abiotic...

Resource use differences of two coexisting chironomid species at localized scales
Competing species may show positive correlations in abundance through time and space if they rely on a shared resource. Such positive correlations...
