1. Repurposing brownfields as urban greenspace with gentle remediation options: A circular outlook
Sammanfattning : Circular Economy (CE) is regarded as an efficient strategy to address the challenges arising from the linear ‘take-make-use-dispose’ system of exploitation of resources. Urban land and soil are among the most exploited resources wherein brownfields, the potentially contaminated and currently obsolete land, can be considered the waste of the linear land use system.

2. An Assessment of the Potential for Bio-based Land Uses on Urban Brownfields
Sammanfattning : Circular Economy (CE) is expected to accelerate the emerging shift in resource consumption from finite to renewable, and plants are key in enabling the switch as industries would opt more and more for resources with a bio-based origin. Cities have an important role in the process not only as the main consumers of the resources but also because vegetation provides numerous tangible and intangible ecosystem services essential for the wellbeing of urban dwellers.

3. Gentle Remediation Options (GRO) for Managing Risks and Providing Ecosystem Services at Contaminated Sites
Sammanfattning : Soils are a non-renewable resource and comprise a key component of the world's stock of natural capital. Due to industrialisation, urbanisation and other patterns of unsustainable development, widespread land degradation in the form of contamination, soil sealing, compaction, etc. LÄS MER
4. Provtagnings- och analysstrategi för lämplig mätosäkerhet
Sammanfattning : Prior to the remediation of brownfields, extensive sampling and analysing isdone. The planned and reached measurement uncertainties are seldom asked forcontracting such types of investigations. Therefore they are usually not statednor discussed in the tenders. LÄS MER
5. Uncertainty in environmental decision-making : effects of defined or undefined guidance in the decision process
Sammanfattning : Decision-making in environmental issues often includes uncertainty in the input data and the resulting uncertainty when the data is used. Some spatial decisions are however taken without any formal analysis, meaning that the decision-makers have a mental map and preconceived notions about the decision options before the final decision actually is taken.
