Water balance of the Beles basin, North-West Ethiopia Ghent University
Water balance of Beles basin must be known for better management of its water resources, addressing knowledge gaps mainly on surface-groundwater dynamics and understanding the hydro-system. Research related to water resources in remote Beles basin of Ethiopia is affected by problems of data availability, given the poor accessibility. Remote sensing data are combined with field data to reach the objectives.
Deposition, diffusion and convection: BLUES approximants and some exact results KU Leuven
An analytic procedure for solving nonlinear differential equations, the BLUES function method, is studied. It is first implemented for differential equations that can be reduced to ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with one independent variable. When an inhomogeneous source (or sink) is present in the equation, the BLUES function method provides a natural way to obtain approximate solutions. In this setup, different systems from ...
Sabbatical Claes Tom Ghent University
My research focuses broadly on the theme of Sexual Justice. During the scientific assignment, I want to further expand and consolidate my work on this subject through publications, publication projects and an intensification of networks. More precisely, I want to use the time to achieve four concrete objectives through 4 results. Specifically, I want to complete and deliver three scientific articles to develop a policy-oriented manual ...

Pink cloud or baby blues? The role of emotion regulation and attachment in first-time parents’ response to stress during the transition to parenthood. Ghent University
The birth of a child is an important and potentially challenging life transition. For some parents, the transition goes along with lowered psychosocial well-being. One of the most proximal predictors for well-being is parental stress. This project investigates the role of emotion regulation in experienced stress. Moreover, attachment relationships are investigated with regard to interindividual differences in postnatal emotion regulation.

What works for high risk students? Looking for clues to improve their academic outcomes KU Leuven
What works for high-risk students? Looking for clues to improve their academic outcomes.
Gudrun Vanlaar (Supervisors prof. B. De Fraine & prof. J. Van Damme)
Educational research shows that students with a low socioeconomic status (SES), an immigrant background, and/or special educational needs are more vulnerable for academic underachievement. This doctoral project focuses on the question how the gap between high- and ...
Discourse analysis on climate issues Ghent University
Klimaatverandering stelt ons als samenleving voor een aantal fundamentele keuzes, wat leidt tot heel wat maatschappelijk debat. Zo bestaat er onder andere onenigheid over effecten, oorzaken en verbanden tussen onze consumptie- en productiepatronen, over de beste klimaatstrategieën en -maatregelen die kunnen gevolgd worden binnen bepaalde sectoren, en over hoe de kosten en baten verdeeld zouden moeten worden binnen de samenleving. Dit ...
