A conceptual framework for understanding the biogeochemistry of dry riverbeds through the lens of soil science
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Von Schiller Calle, Daniel Gaspar
(Elsevier, 2019)
Intermittent rivers and ephemeral streams (IRES) encompass fluvial ecosystems that eventually stop flowing and run dry at some point in space and time. During the dry phase, channels of IRES consist mainly of dry riverbeds ... -
A CRITICAL REVIEW of COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS for CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION in CITIES
(Climate Change Economics, 2019-11-01)his study systematically reviews the scientific literature (n=56) on cost-benefit analysis (CBA) of adaptation measures in cities and similar urban environments. The review is conducted to assess existing or proposed actions ... -
A cross-scale worldwide analysis of coastal adaptation planning
(IOP Publishing, 2019)The Paris Agreement requires measurement of the progress made on adaptation. Tracking the progress made by governments through analysis of policies provides insight into the goals and means to achieve adaptation targets. ... -
A data-driven approach to analyse the co-evolution of urban systems through a resilience lens: A Helsinki case study
(Environment and Planning B: Urban Analytics and City Science, 2024)Urban areas are dynamic systems, in which different infrastructural, social and economic subsystems continuously co-evolve. As such, disruptions in one system can propagate to another. However, open challenges remain in ... -
A dynamic assessment of instrument interaction and timing alternatives in the EU low-carbon policy mix design
(ENERGY POLICY, 2018)The European Union low-carbon strategy includes a range of complementary policies. Potential interactions between instruments and different timing of their implementation can influence the cost and likelihood of achieving ... -
A dynamic CGE modelling approach for analyzing trade-offs in climate change policy options: the case of Green Climate Fund
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2014-09-08)We investigate the trade-offs between economic growth and low carbon targets for developing and developed countries in the period up to 2035. Policy options are evaluated with an original version of the dynamic CGE model ... -
A first chronology for the East Greenland Ice-core Project (EGRIP) over the Holocene and last glacial termination
(Climate of the Past, 2020)This paper provides the first chronology for the deep ice core from the East Greenland Ice-core Project (EGRIP) over the Holocene and the late last glacial period. We rely mainly on volcanic events and common peak patterns ... -
A framework for using autonomous adaptation as a leverage point in sustainable climate adaptation
(Climate Risk Management, 2021-10-31)Planned adaptations are commonly adopted by governments considering large-scale socio-economic and political interventions, while local communities innovate their adaptive responses using locally available resources â ... -
A game theory model to explore the role of cooperation and diversity in community food security: the case of Southern Malawi
(Springer-Verlag GmbH, 2020)The Sustainable Development Goals aim at ending food insecurity by 2030. Therefore, civil society needs to understand the inherent complexities of both socio-economic and ecological dynamics and their interdependencies. ... -

A global meta-analysis of the impacts of forest fragmentation on biotic mutualisms and antagonisms
(Conservation Biology, 2023)Forest fragmentation is a grave threat to biodiversity. Forests are becoming increasingly fragmented with more than 70% now < 1 km from forest edge. Although much is known about the effects of forest fragmentation on ... -
A global review of past land use, climate, and active vs. passive restoration effects on forest recovery
(PloS One, 2017)Global forest restoration targets have been set, yet policy makers and land managers lack guiding principles on how to invest limited resources to achieve them. We conducted a meta-analysis of 166 studies in naturally ... -
A meta-analysis of environmental factor effects on ammonia emissions from dairy cattle houses
(Elsevier, 2019)Livestock housing is one of the main sources of ammonia (NH3) emissions from agriculture. Different management and environmental factors are known to affect NH3 emissions from housing systems. The aim of this study was to ... -
A method for selecting a climate model: an application for maximum daily temperature in Southern Spain
(Theoretical and Applied Climatology, 2023)General circulation models (GCM) show projections of climate variables that when downscaled can be applied to analyse future behaviour in different areas or places. Using them is possible not just to obtain expected values ... -
A methodological approach for assessing flexibility and capacity value in renewable-dominated power systems: A Spanish case study in 2030
(Energy, 2023)Maintaining the security of supply is one of the challenges that system operators face. Variability and uncertainty increase due to the penetration of variable renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, while flexible ... -
A multi-model analysis of long-term emissions and warming implications of current mitigation efforts
(Nature Climate Change, 2021-12-01)Most of the integrated assessment modelling literature focuses on cost-effective pathways towards given temperature goals. Conversely, using seven diverse integrated assessment models, we project global energy CO2 emissions ... -
A multi-model analysis of the EU's path to net zero
(Joule, 2023-12-20)The European Union (EU) recently ratcheted its climate ambition to net-zero emissions by 2050, with a milestone of 55% emissions cuts in 2030. This study carries out a model inter-comparison to assess the EU's path, from ... -
A multi-resolution and multivariate analysis of the dynamic relationships between crude oil and petroleum-product prices
; ; Fernández Macho, Francisco Javier (Elsevier, 2018)
This paper proposes the use of a novel multivariate, dynamic approach wavelet local multiple correlation (WLMC) (Fernández-Macho, 2018) to analyse the relationship between oil time series in the time-scale domain. This ... -
A multimodel analysis of post-Glasgow climate targets and feasibility challenges
(Nature Climate Change, 2023-06-01)The COP26 Glasgow process resulted in many countries strengthening their 2030 emissions reduction targets and announcing net-zero pledges for 2050–2070 but it is not clear how this would impact future warming. Here, we use ... -
A multiple-uncertainty analysis framework for integrated assessment modelling of several sustainable development goals
(Elsevier, 2020)This research introduces a two-level integration of climate-economy modelling and portfolio analysis, to simulate technological subsidisation with implications for multiple Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), across ...
