Europe’s seas are a rich and of ten underestimated source of innovation, growth and employment. They provide valuable ecosystem services and resources on which all marine activities depend. Our seas are essential for improving relations, enhancing regional trade and consequently, for the prosperity and development.
Ensuring the sustainable development of the marine and maritime environment requires effective coordination and co-operation between relevant bodies, and actions at all levels.
Governments are called to promote integrated, multidisciplinary and multi-sectoral maritime policies.
The strong contribution of maritime sectors to Europe’s economy and the objectives of the Europe 2020 strategy must be reinforced by coordinated action to lower costs, improve resource efficiency, reduce risks, support innovation and make better use of public money.
A valid approach to reach these objectives is represented by the Integrated Maritime Policy (IMP), created in 2007, which seeks to provide a more coherent approach to maritime issues, with increased coordination between different policy areas. The IMP is a process addressing all maritime sectors that takes account of competing sectors and interests to provide a coherent unified policy.
Speaking notes for What works well power point presentation

Detecting causes of low urban accessibility: a comparative approach
This document summarizes a study that used a comparative approach to analyze urban accessibility in Madrid, Spain. It calculated accessibility to jobs from origin-destination pairs using different transport scenarios for private cars and public transit. The study found that private cars provided much higher accessibility than public transit. Accessibility was highest in central areas and lowest in peripheries for both transport modes. For public transit, travel times varied more in peripheries and were more affected by frequencies. The analysis identified constraints on accessibility to help define policy responses to improve transport equity and sustainability.

City of Gothenburg
Gothenburg is facing challenges from a growing population and increased congestion. The city has implemented measures like congestion charges and improved public transportation to manage traffic. Gothenburg has succeeded in reaching its target of reducing traffic fatalities and serious injuries by 50% by 2010 through strategies like collecting hospital data, setting clear targets, and dedicating resources. Traffic calming measures like raised crossings, central islands at bus stops, lateral road deflections, and road humps have helped reduce speeds. The city's vision for 2020 is to have fewer than three traffic fatalities and less than 75 injuries annually.
86 scott elaurant.pptx
This document discusses issues with transport funding, project selection, and project delivery in Australia. It argues that transport funding levels have increased but are still below long-term averages. Project selection is too influenced by politics and ideology, prioritizing roads over rail and rural over urban. Many projects experience delays and cost overruns due to changing political priorities between governments. Project delivery is inefficient, with most recent toll road PPPs going bankrupt and megaprojects routinely exceeding costs. The document calls for independent decision making on infrastructure, more transparency, and national policies to bring more consistency and effectiveness to transport planning.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
