Local and Global Externalities, Environmental Policies and Growth
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2010-10-25)The paper analyzes the implications of local and global pollution when two types of abatement activities can be undertaken. One type reduces solely local pollution (e.g., use of particulate matter filters) while the other ... -
Local mortality impacts due to future air pollution under climate change scenarios
(Science of the Total Environment, 2022-06-01)... -
Local Observations of Climate Change and Adaptation Responses: A Case Study in the Mountain Region of Burundi-Rwanda
(Land, 2023)Mountain regions and their communities are particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts. However, little is known on the impacts observed and adaptation responses used in Burundi’s mountain region and if these are ... -
Local perceptions of ecosystem services across multiple ecosystem types in Spain
(Land, 2020)Combining socio-cultural valuations of ecosystem services with ecological and monetary assessments is critical to informing decision making with an integrative and multi-pronged approach. This study examined differences ... -
Long Run Demand for Energy Services: the Role of Economic and Technological Development
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2013-01-01)This paper investigates how the demand for energy services has changed since the Industrial Revolution. It presents evidence on the income and price elasticities of demand for domestic heating, passenger transport and ... -
Long Run Trends in Energy-Related External Costs
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2011-01-12)This paper considers how energy-related external costs change through time. It focuses on one of the key periods in the history of energy. After a period of declining coal prices and soaring consumption which fuelled the ... -
Long Run Trends in the Price of Energy and Energy Services
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2011-11-10)Energy prices have risen considerably since the beginning of the twenty-first century. It is valuable to place these price rises within a historical context. Many peaks preceded the price hike of 2008, and there will, no ... -
Long-term effectiveness of sustainable land management practices to control runoff, soil erosion, and nutrient loss and the role of rainfall intensity in Mediterranean rainfed agroecosystems
(Elsevier, 2020)Mediterranean environments are especially susceptible to soil erosion and to inappropriate soil management, leading to accelerated soil loss. Sustainable Land Management (SLM) practices (such as reduced tillage, no-tillage, ... -
Looking for orbital signals in stable isotopes of carbon and oxygen of belemnites from the Early Jurassic in the Basque Cantabrian basin through the smoothed Lomb-Scargle periodogram
(Estudios Geologicos, 2021-06-30)The use of time series of stable isotopes obtained from fossilized samples of macrofossils, such as belemnites from the early Jurassic, until now, have not been used to explore whether these paleoindicators may have recorded ... -
Low Climate Stabilisation under Diverse Growth and Convergence Scenarios
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2011-08-08)In the last decade, a few papers have analysed the consequences of achieving the greenhouse gas concentration levels necessary to maintain global temperature increases below 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels. ... -
Low Climate Stabilisation under Diverse Growth and Convergence Scenarios
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2012-08-01)In the last decade, a few papers have analysed the consequences of achieving the greenhouse gas concentration levels necessary to maintain global temperature increases below 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels. ... -
Low growth resilience to drought is related to future mortality risk in trees
(Springer Nature, 2020)Severe droughts have the potential to reduce forest productivity and trigger tree mortality. Most trees face several drought events during their life and therefore resilience to dry conditions may be crucial to long-term ... -
Low sensitivity of gross primary production to elevated CO2 in a mature eucalypt woodland
(EGU Publications, 2020)The response of mature forest ecosystems to a rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration (span classCombining double low line"inline-formula"iC/ia/span) is a major uncertainty in projecting the future trajectory of ... -
Luxury and legacy effects on urban biodiversity, vegetation cover and ecosystem services
(npj Urban Sustainability, 2023-12-01)Socio-economic and historical drivers shape urban nature distribution and characteristics, as luxury (wealth-related) and legacy (historical management) effects. Using remote sensing and census data on biodiversity and ... -
Lyapunov exponents for temporal networks
(Physical Review E, 2023)By interpreting a temporal network as a trajectory of a latent graph dynamical system, we introduce the concept of dynamical instability of a temporal network and construct a measure to estimate the network maximum Lyapunov ... -
Machine learning for ecosystem services
(Elsevier, 2018)Recent developments in machine learning have expanded data-driven modelling (DDM) capabilities, allowing artificial intelligence to infer the behaviour of a system by computing and exploiting correlations between observed ... -
Mapping land-use fluxes for 2001–2020 from global models to national inventories
(Earth Syst. Sci., 2022-08-22)With the focus of climate policy shifting from pledges to implementation, there is an increasing need to track progress on climate change mitigation at country level, especially for the land-use sector. Despite new tools ... -
Mapping the landscape of water and society research: Promising combinations of compatible and complementary disciplines
(Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Water, 2024-03-01)Coupled human-water systems (CHWS) are diverse and have been studied across a wide variety of disciplines. Integrating multiple disciplinary perspectives on CHWS provides a comprehensive and actionable understanding of ... -
Mapping the planet’s critical natural assets
(Nature Ecology and Evolution, 2023)Sustaining the organisms, ecosystems and processes that underpin human wellbeing is necessary to achieve sustainable development. Here we define critical natural assets as the natural and semi-natural ecosystems that provide ... -
Marginal Damage of Methane Emissions: Ozone Impacts on Agriculture
(Environmental and Resource Economics, 2023)Methane directly contributes to air pollution, as an ozone precursor, and to climate change, generating physical and economic damages to different systems, namely agriculture, vegetation, energy, human health, or biodiversity. ...
