Diffusion of Material Flow Cost Accounting and its Contribution to Sustainable Development
(2022)
This thesis aims to analyze how further take-up of Material Flow Cost Accounting (MFCA) in practice can be encouraged to support sustainable development. To achieve the aim of the thesis, three studies on MFCA are conducted at multiple levels. The first study provides a better understanding of MFCA application at the corporate level in developing countries, which are characterized by rapid structure transformation leading to serious environmental problems. The second study considers the contextual and transformational ...

Assessment of the variation of marbling and intramuscular fat content of beef, and validation of possible factors to increase sensory beef quality
(2021-11)
This thesis focuses on the intramuscular fat content (IMF) or the marbling of beef as main parameters of sensory beef quality. The aim is to identify the high variability of these traits and to verify possible influences such as genetics, age, gender and feeding strategies to increase marbling.
The first part of this research focuses on the variation of quality traits within a genetically homogeneous line of an endangered German beef cattle breed “Rotes Höhenvieh” (RHV). The intramuscular fat content of beef samples ...

Molecular mechanisms controlling the precision of chemokine guided cell migration
(2007-06-21)
By the end of the first day of embryonic development, zebrafish primordial germ cells (PGCs) arrive at the site where the gonad develops. In our study we investigated the mechanisms controlling the precision of primordial germ cell arrival at their target.
We found that in contrast with our expectations which were based on findings in Drosophila and mouse, the endoderm does not constitute a preferred migration substrate for the PGCs. Rather, endoderm derivatives are important for later stages of organogenesis keeping ...

Die Wirkung von Sustainability Management Control Systems auf Risiko und Resilienz von Unternehmen
(2024)
Die Dissertation mit dem Titel „Die Wirkung von Sustainability Management Control Systems auf Risiko und Resilienz von Unternehmen“ befasst sich mit der Forschungsfrage, ob Unternehmen durch den Einsatz von Sustainability Management Control Systems (SMCS) das Risiko ihres Unternehmens senken und mittels SMCS eine ambidextre Unternehmensstrategie in Resilienzfähigkeiten überleiten können. Die Dissertation folgt einem positivistischen Forschungsansatz und wertet mittels Fragebögen gewonnene Daten anhand der quantitativ ...

Value relevance of ESG reporting
(2024)
In this doctoral thesis I analyzed the value relevance of ESG reporting in a broad Europe-focused context. In doing so, this thesis takes a holistic view by examining the value relevance of ESG reports. On the one hand, it focuses on certain characteristics such as the type of report or institutional environment. On the other hand, it seeks to obtain a deeper insight into what influences the perception of ESG reporting in general, analyzing ESG-related factors such as ESG controversies.

Transformative research for sustainability: characteristics, tensions, and moving forward
(2024-02-14)
Technical summary:
The question of how science can become a lever in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals permeates most recent sustainability research. Wide-ranging literature calling for a transformative approach has emerged in recent years. This ‘transformative turn’ is fueled by publications from fields such as sustainability science, social-ecological research, conservation science, sustainability transitions, or sustainability governance studies. However, there is a lack of a shared understanding ...
