Abstract In this paper, we revisit the topic of genetic biobanks and the ethical issues surrounding them. Focusing on the centrality of altruism to their conception, design and governance, we explore the ways in which the idea of participation as a “free gift” has served to defin...

Rapid Declinesin European Traffic NO x and NMVOC EmissionsRevealed by Eddy-Covarianceand Remote Sensing

Abstract Reliable quantification of anthropogenic emission trends remains a major uncertainty in air-quality and climate assessments. Here we present nearly a decade of eddy-covariance flux measurements of NOx, nonmethane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs), and CO2 in the Alpine...
