Structure dependence of molecular reactions on surfaces
The research presented in this thesis makes use of small molecules (as H2 , D2 and O2 ) on well-defined single crystal surfaces (flat Pt(111), flat Cu(211) and curved Pt(111)) to elucidate the role of surface structure and degrees of freedom in the reactant in specific surface reactions.

Who gets what, when, and how? An analysis of stakeholder interests and conflicts in and around Big Science
Big Science, commonly defined as conventional science made big in three dimensions, namely organizations, machines, and politics, brings a plethora of different stakeholders together, often for a long period of time. This includes policymakers, scientists, (scientific) managers as well as local “host”…

Research project The Power of Evidence
De wetenschappelijke onderbouwing van beleid wordt cruciaal geacht voor goed bestuur. Maar ondanks de overvloed aan beschikbare kennis uit onderzoek en evaluaties, weten we nog maar weinig over de daadwerkelijke invloed die dergelijke evidence heeft op overheidsbeleid. Het onderzoeksprogramma ‘Power…

Monitoring drought and salinity stress in agriculture by remote sensing for a sustainable future
Food security is challenged by a growing global population and by climate change. Drought and soil salinity are considered the most important ones that inhibit crop yield and distribution. Worryingly, climate change is predicted to increase not only their frequency and severity, but also their co-occurrence,…

Geometry of Vegetation Pattern
One of the effects of climate change is the phenomenon of desertification, a process that occurs in semi-arid and arid areas and causes land degradation as well as vegetation loss. Due to the lack of resources, vegetation self-organizes to sustain itself by forming large-scale spatial patterns.

‘Toen ik het in 2010 had over de materialen voor een energietransitie, werd er nog net niet gelachen’
Om windturbines en elektrische auto’s te bouwen, hebben we tonnen magneten nodig. Momenteel importeren we die voornamelijk uit China, waardoor Europa voor de energietransitie erg afhankelijk is van deze grootmacht. Daar moet verandering in komen, aldus Industrieel ecoloog René Kleijn. In het project…
