Preliminary feasibility study on the development of a marina at Noordwijk (2008)

Smits, M.C.J.

Preliminary feasibility study on the development of a marina at Noordwijk The Dutch coast is a popular destination for tourists. The coast offers all kinds of water sports and activities on the...

Life cycle assessment of conventional and organic milk production in the Netherlands. (2008)

Thomassen, M.A., Smits, M.C.J., Iepema, G.

Production of milk causes environmental side effects, such as emission of greenhouse gases and nutrient enrichment in surface water. Scientific evidence that shows differences in integral...

The VELD experiment: An evaluation of the ammonia emissions and concentrations in an agricultural area (2008)

Vellinga, O.S., Smits, M.C.J.

From July 2002until September 2003, a detailed ammonia emission inventory was carried out in concurrence with detailed measurements of the ammonia concentrations in air in a 3 × 3 km area in the...

Het 'VELD'-project, addendum : uitwerking juli en augustus 2003 (2007)

Smits, M.C.J.

In een gebied van 3x3 km rond het dorp Vragender in de Achterhoek zijn uitgebreid metingen van ammoniakconcentraties (NH3) gedaan en emissies berekend aan de hand van in detail geregistreerde...

Effect of rumen degradable protein balance and forage type on bulk milk urea concentration and emission of ammonia from dairy cow houses (2005)

Andre, G., Smits, M.C.J., Monteny, G.J., Sebek, L.B.J.

As the Dutch government and dairy farming sector have given priority to reducing ammonia emission, the effect of diet on the ammonia emission from dairy cow barns was studied. In addition, the...

Ammoniakemissie uit de melkveestal bij beperkte weidegang in relatie tot melkureumgehalte (2004)

Smits, M.C.J., Sebek, L.B.J., Vereijken, P.F.G., Andre, G., Monteny, G.J.

Ammoniak (NH3) ontstaat wanneer ureum uit de urine wordt afgebroken door het enzym urease, dat onder andere aanwezig is in mest. Urine en mest komen met elkaar in contact op stalvloeren en in...

Relatie tussen voeding en ammoniakemissie vanuit de melkveestal = Relation between diet and ammonia emission from the dairy cow barn (2003)

André, G., Smits, M.C.J., Monteny, G.J., Blanken, K., Wagemans, M.J.M., ...

De ammoniakemissie vanuit natuurlijk geventileerde melkveestallen is via voermaatregelen sterk te beonvloeden. Met name door verlaging van de OEB van het rantsoen is een forse emissiereductie...

Effect of nutrition and management factors on ammonia emission from dairy cow herds: models and field observations (2003)

Smits, M.C.J., Monteny, G.J.

In the Netherlands and other regions with a high density of farm animals, it is important to reduce ammonia emission, which causes undesirable deposition of nitrogen in ecosystems with a low nitrogen...

Ammoniakemissie op de Marke : Onderzoek en resultaten van 1994 tot 2001 (2003)

Koskamp, G.J., Kool, A., Middelkoop, N., Huijsmans, J.F.M., Hol, J.M.G., Smits, M.C.J., ...

Strenge doelstelling gehaald Voor ammoniak is de landelijke norm een reductie van 70% ten opzichte van 1980. Dit is in het Nationaal Milieubeleidsplan (NMP3) vastgelegd en door De Marke overgenomen....

Prediction of Ammonia Emission from Dairy Barns using Feed Characteristics. Part II: Relation between Urinary Urea Concentration and Ammonia Emission. (2002)

Monteny, G.J., Smits, M.C.J., Mollenhorst, H.

Emission of NH3 from dairy barns can be reduced substantially by changing the cows’ diet. Emission of NH3 is reduced most effectively when dietary changes result in a reduction of urinary urea...
