For the case of phosphorus there is for example an apparent gap in the dis-aggragted material flows analysis before the creation of bio-mass.

In this project we will investigate the dynamics of diversity on corporate boards. We want to study which determinants influence appointments to corporate boards. Further we will investigate if and how the composition of the board influences governance.

The project is funded by the Austrian Science Fund.
