Global Land Use Change Impacts on Soil Nitrogen Availability and Environmental Losses by Jing Wang (6206297)

“…However, how global land use changes impact soil N supply and potential N loss remains elusive. By compiling a global data set of 1,782 paired observations from 185 publications, we show that land use conversion from natural to managed ecosystems significantly reduced NNM by 7.5% (−11.5, −2.8%) and increased NN by 150% (86, 194%), indicating decreasing N availability while increasing potential N loss through denitrification and nitrate leaching. …”

Upcycling of Postconsumer Recyclate Polypropylene into Low Warping and High Toughness 3D Printable Filaments by Animesh Gopal (18521180)

“…Polypropylene (PP) is widely used in commodity applications owing to its chemical stability, mechanical properties and low cost. However, almost 50% of the produced PP ends up as postconsumer waste (PCW) within a short period of usage. …”
