Life cycle inventory data for the Italian agri-food sector: background, sources and methodological aspectsNARA Subscribed
Purpose For the development of any life cycle assessment study, the practitioner frequently integrates primary data collected on-field, with background data taken from various life cycle inventory databases which are part of most commercial LCA software packages. However, such data is often not generally applicable to all product systems since, especially concerning the agri-food sector, available datasets may not be fully rep...
The circular economy (CE) concept has become a major interest for companies, promising new business opportunities and a decrease in environmental impacts. Though research on circular business models has recently increased, few scholars have investigated how companies engaged with CE view the connection between CE and sustainability. To address this gap, this paper uses a semi-quantitative survey and semi-structured interviews...
The extensive oil spill (> 2,900 km) that occurred in the southwestern Atlantic (2019/2020) increased the vulnerability of the Brazilian coast, affecting marine and coastal protected areas (MPAs). In addition to supporting conservation, MPAs are sustainably used by local populations to help maintain ocean-dependent livelihoods. In this sense, we aim to assess the socioeconomic vulnerability of human communities in MPAs affecte...
Common, low-frequency, rare, and ultra-rare coding variants contribute to COVID-19 severityNARA Subscribed
The combined impact of common and rare exonic variants in COVID-19 host genetics is currently insufficiently understood. Here, common and rare variants from whole-exome sequencing data of about 4000 SARS-CoV-2-positive individuals were used to define an interpretable machine-learning model for predicting COVID-19 severity. First, variants were converted into separate sets of Boolean features, depending on the absence or the pr...
Bacterial symbionts of B athymodiolus mussels and E scarpia tubeworms from C hapopote, an asphalt seep in the southern G ulf of M exicoNARA Subscribed
Summary Chemosynthetic life was recently discovered at C hapopote, an asphalt hydrocarbon seep in the southern G ulf of M exico. Preliminary morphological analyses indicated that one tubeworm and two mussel species colonize C hapopote. Our molecular analyses identified the tubeworm as E scarpia sp., and the mussels as B athymodiolus heckerae and B . brooksi . Comparative 16 S rRNA analysis and FISH showed that all three specie...
