(MDPI, 2021-08-01)Current European environmental sustainability standards call for achieving a reduction in energy consumption and CO2 emissions for a horizon set in the year 2050. It has been verified that buildings and cities have a higher ... -
Environmental Awareness and Its Relationship with the Concept of the Living Being: A Longitudinal Study
(MDPI, 2018-07)There is currently a growing theoretical discussion about the foundations that underlie the development of environmental awareness and nature care in early childhood. The aim of this study is to analyze how the environmental ... -
Environmental balance of the high speed rail network in Spain: A Life Cycle Assessment approach
(Elsevier, 2021-12)Spain has the world's second longest network of high speed rail lines built and in service. High-Speed Rail (HSR) is usually presented as a sustainable means of transport with huge potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) ... -
Environmental conditions associated with young delinquency events: a temporal, meteorological, and contextual perspective
(SAGE, 2022-04)Research on youth delinquency has been essential for gaining a deeper understanding of the etiology of delinquent behavior. Studies considering the environmental perspective have increased during the last decade, ... -
Environmental corporate social responsibility, R&D and disclosure of “green” innovation knowledge
(Elsevier, 2023-04)The literature on the environment has analyzed how firms carry out R&D to reduce their pollutant emissions, assuming that they maximize profits. However, empirical evidence shows that firms are increasingly concerned about ... -
Environmental Determinants of COVID 19 Transmission Across a Wide Climatic Gradient in Chile
(Nature Publishing Group, 2021-05-10)Several studies have examined the transmission dynamics of the novel COVID-19 disease in different parts of the world. Some have reported relationships with various environmental variables, suggesting that spread of the ... -
Environmental drivers and spatial scaling of species abundance distributions in Palaearctic grassland vegetation
(Wiley, 2022-08)[EN] Species abundance distributions (SADs) link species richness with species abundances and are an important tool in the quantitative analysis of ecological communities. Niche-based and sample-based SAD models predict ... -
Environmental Enrichment Rescues Endocannabinoid-Dependent Synaptic Plasticity Lost in Young Adult Male Mice after Ethanol Exposure during Adolescence
(MDPI, 2021-07-16)Binge drinking (BD) is a serious health concern in adolescents as high ethanol (EtOH) consumption can have cognitive sequelae later in life. Remarkably, an enriched environment (EE) in adulthood significantly recovers ... -
Environmental enrichment shapes striatal spike-timing-dependent plasticity in vivo
(Nature, 2019-12-19)Behavioural experience, such as environmental enrichment (EE), induces long-term effects on learning and memory. Learning can be assessed with the Hebbian paradigm, such as spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), which ... -
