Floating matter: a neglected component of the ecological integrity of rivers
(Springer, 2019)
Floating matter (FM) is a pivotal, albeit neglected, element along river corridors contributing to their ecological integrity. FM consists of particulate matter of natural (e.g. wood, branches, leaves, seeds) and anthropogenic ...
Unexplained hydrogen isotope offsets complicate the identification and quantification of tree water sources in a riparian forest
(EGU Publications, 2019)
We investigated plant water sources of an emblematic refugial population of Fagus sylvatica (L.) in the Ciron river gorges in south-western France using stable water isotopes. It is generally assumed that no isotopic ...
Empirical and dynamic approaches for modelling the yield and N content of European grasslands
(Elsevier, 2019)
We applied two approaches to model grassland yield and nitrogen (N) content. The first was a series of regression equations; the second was the Century dynamic model. The regression model was generated from data from ...
Spatially explicit species distribution models: A missed opportunity in conservation planning?
(John Wiley and Sons, 2019)
Aim: Systematic conservation planning is vital for allocating protected areas given the spatial distribution of conservation features, such as species. Due to incomplete species inventories, species distribution models ...
Social equity shapes zone-selection: Balancing aquatic biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services delivery in the transboundaryDanube River Basin
(Elsevier, 2019)
Freshwater biodiversity is declining, despite national and international efforts to manage and protect freshwater ecosystems. Ecosystem-based management (EBM) has been proposed as an approach that could more efficiently ...
Ten lessons for good practice for the INHERIT triple win: Health, equity, and environmental sustainability
(MDPI, 2019)
The world s challenges of climate change, damage to ecosystems, and social and health inequalities require changes in human behaviours at every level of organisation, among governments, business, communities, and individuals. ...
Risk measures and the distribution of damage curves for 600 European coastal cities
(IOP Publishing, 2019)
A good understanding of climate change damages is vital to design effective adaptation policies and measures. Using a dataset of probabilistic sea-level rise and other of flood damages and protection cost curves for the ...
Flat-shaped carbon-graphene microcomposites as electrodes for high energy supercapacitors
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-06-28)
Herein, we report a simple approach for the preparation of phosphate-functionalized carbonaceous graphene-based composites. The homogeneous deposition of a thin layer of phenolic resin on the surface of graphene oxide (GO) ...
Impact of MOF-5 on pyrrolidinium-based poly(ionic liquid)/ionic liquid membranes for biogas upgrading
(ACS, 2019-12-03)
Bearing in mind that Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have remarkable CO2 adsorption selectivity and Mixed Matrix Membranes (MMMs) have been identified as potential solution for advancing the current state of the art of ...
The Musical Bridge—Intercultural Regionalism and the Immigration Challenge in Contemporary Andalusia
(MDPI, 2019-12-30)
The ideals of tolerance and cultural exchange associated with the interfaith past of Muslim Spain (al-Andalus) have become a symbol for Andalusian regionalism and for the integration of Moroccan communities. Nowhere is ...
