Addendum to Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities
(IOP Publishing, 2018)This addendum adds to the analysis presented in Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities Abadie et al (2017 Environ. Res. Lett . 12 [https://doi.org/10.1088 ... -
Advancing protected area effectiveness assessments by disentangling social-ecological interactions: A case study from the Luangwa Valley, Zambia
(Conservation Science and Practice, 2023-08-01)Protected and conserved areas (PCAs) target at biodiversity conservation and human well-being, but often reflect low levels of effectiveness. Understanding PCAs social-ecological systems in which people and nature interact ... -
African Review of Economics and Finance
(African Journals Online (RF) S.A, 2019)This paper provides insights into the current socioeconomic and biophysical state of the Volta Delta, Ghana. We employed non-survey methods, notably the Flegg Location Quotient (FLQ) method of regionalization and construction ... -
Agent-based modelling to assess community food security and sustainable livelihoods
(SimSoc Consortium, 2018)We present a methodological approach for constructing an agent-based model (ABM) to assess community food security and variation among livelihood trajectories, using rural Malawi as a case study. The approach integrates ... -
Agro-economic and socio-environmental assessments of food and virtual water trades of Iran
(Scientific Reports, 2021-12-01)Ending hunger and ensuring food security are among targets of 2030 s SDGs. While food trade and the embedded (virtual) water (VW) may improve food availability and accessibility for more people all year round, the ... -
Allometric biomass models for european beech and silver fir: Testing approaches to minimize the demand for site-specific biomass observations
(Forests, 2020)In this paper, site-specific allometric biomass models were developed for European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) to estimate the aboveground biomass in Sinca virgin forest, Romania. Several ... -
Alteration of the tree–soil microbial system triggers a feedback loop that boosts holm oak decline
(Functional Ecology, 2023)In anthropic savanna ecosystems from the Iberian Peninsula (i.e. dehesa), complex interactions between climate change, pathogen outbreaks and human land use are presumed to be behind the observed increase in holm oak ... -
Altered leaf litter quality exacerbates the negative impact of climate change on decomposition
(Journal of Ecology, 2019-01-01)Leaf litter decomposition is a key component of global biogeochemical cycles that influence soil carbon storage, nutrient availability and plant productivity. Ongoing climate change will lead to warmer and drier conditions ... -
Alternative societal solutions to pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment
(JOURNAL OF CLEANER PRODUCTION, 2020)Environmental contamination with pharmaceuticals is widespread, inducing risks to both human health and the environment. This paper explores potential societal solutions to human and veterinary pharmaceuticals in the aquatic ... -
Alternative trajectories for decarbonizing urban transportation
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2013-11-21)The transportation sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for one-quarter (?7 Gt CO2) of present day annual releases, 75% of which come from road transportation. *Unless there is a ... -
An estimation of Armington elasticities at the EU-28 level
(2019)The Armington substitution elasticity is a key parameter for trade-policy analysis. The purpose of this study then is no other than to re-estimate NEST 11 Armington elasticities making use of the upgraded versions of WIOD ... -
An explanation for the isotopic offset between soil and stem water in a temperate tree species
(New Phytologist Trust, 2020)A growing number of field studies report isotopic offsets between stem water and its potential sources that prevent the unambiguous identification of plant water origin using water isotopes. We explored the causes of this ... -
An inclusive typology of values for navigating transformations towards a just and sustainable future
(Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2023-10-10)Achieving the intertwined goals of justice and sustainability requires transformative changes to meaningfully engage diverse perspectives. Therefore, scholars and policymakers need new ways of recognising and addressing ... -
An update of IPCC climate reference regions for subcontinental analysis of climate model data: definition and aggregated datasets
(Earth System Science Data, 2020)Several sets of reference regions have been used in the literature for the regional synthesis of observed and modelled climate and climate change information. A popular example is the series of reference regions used in ... -
