Valuing nature’s contributions to people: the IPBES approach
(Elsevier, 2017-06)Nature is perceived and valued in starkly different and often conflicting ways. This paper presents the rationale for the inclusive valuation of nature's contributions to people (NCP) in decision making, as well as broad ... -
Variation in diversity–function relationships can be explained by species interactions
(Journal of Animal Ecology, 2023)Research Highlight: Wu, D., Xu, C., Wang, S., Zhang, L., & Kortsch, S. (2022). Why are biodiversity–ecosystem functioning relationships so elusive? Trophic interactions may amplify ecosystem function variability. Journal ... -
La verdadera pérdida causada por las políticas de compensación de la biodiversidad
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2015-12)•Los ecosistemas son sistemas complejos irremplazables •Los ecosistemas tienen valores ecológicos, instrumentales y no instrumentales •Existen perdidas ecológicas, normativas y morales que no se consideran en las políticas ... -
VisualDom: An R package for estimating dominant variables in dynamical systems[Formula presented]
(Software Impacts, 2023-05-01)The R package VisualDom estimates and plots the correlation coefficients obtained via the wavelet local multiple correlation and the variables that maximizes the wavelet multiple correlation through time and scale, i.e. ... -
Volcanism and climate change as drivers in Holocene depositional dynamic of Laguna del Maule (Andes of central Chile - 36° S)
(Climate of the Past, 2020-07-02)Late Quaternary volcanic basins are active landscapes from which detailed archives of past climate and seismic and volcanic activity can be obtained. A multidisciplinary study performed on a transect of sediment cores was ... -
W2CWM2C reloaded: Ten years later[Formula presented]
(Software Impacts, 2023)We present an updated version v2.2 of the R package W2CWM2C (a graphical tool for wavelet (cross) correlation and multiple wavelet (cross) correlation analysis) v1.0. W2CWM2C contains a set of R functions that improve the ... -
Warning to navigators: IPCC report on climate change mitigation
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2014-05-13)Despite the proliferation of climate change plans and strategies, global emissions have accelerated over the last decade. *If the present trends continue, temperatures will have risen between 3.7 and 4.3ºC by the end of ... -
Warsaw Conference: “Small steps forward while awaiting major decisions at the 2015 Paris Conference”
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2013-12-20)Consensus was reached on the text on which the future global agreement in Paris 2015 on cutting emissions will be based. The countries will have to explain by means of biannual reports from 2014 onwards how they are going ... -
Water taken up through the bark is detected in the transpiration stream in intact upper-canopy branches
(Plant Cell and Environment, 2022)Alternative water uptake pathways through leaves and bark complement water supply with interception, fog or dew. Bark water-uptake contributes to embolism-repair, as demonstrated in cut branches. We tested whether bark ... -

“We are the Green Capital”: Navigating the political and sustainability fix narratives of urban greening
(Cities, 2022)With increasing attention on green(ing) cities, urban nature is used to increase liveability, to create new sectors such as tourism, and to boost international investment. What counts as desirable green intervention generally ... -
Weighting social preferences in participatory multi-criteria evaluations: a case study on sustainable natural resource management
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2012-08-23)The use of multi-criteria evaluation tools in combination with participatory approaches provides a promising framework for integrating multiple interests and perspectives in the effort to provide sustainability. However, ... -
What can conservation strategies learn from the ecosystem services approach? Insights from ecosystem assessments in two Spanish protected areas
(Springer, 2018)Biodiversity conservation strategies that overlook the interests of local people are prone to create conflicts. The ecosystem service approach holds potential for more comprehensively integrating the social dimension into ... -
What climatic impacts are Spanish cities preparing for?
(Ekonomiaz, 2020)Cities play an important role in identifying climate impacts on population, urbanization and infrastructure, and in making decisions regarding how, how much and when we should adapt. We present here an analysis of the ... -
What economic benefit is achieved by reducing air pollution through trees in the Basque Country?
(Ekonomiaz, 2020-01-01)This study estimates air pollution removal by trees in the Basque Country and calculates their economic value. The study has developed a model that simulates the process of dry deposition on trees on an hourly basis of ... -
What happened during the climate change negotiations in Copenhagen 2009?
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2009-06-05)This policy briefing summarizes the results of the last United Nations Climate Change summit (COP 15) held in Copenhagen (Denmark) between 7-18 December. The postures taken by the main countries during the summit, the main ... -
What is the Price of Conservation? A Review of the Status Quo and Recommendations for Improving Cost Reporting
(BioScience, 2022)Wildlife conservation is severely limited by funding. Therefore, to maximize biodiversity outcomes, assessing financial costs of interventions is as important as assessing effectiveness. We reviewed the reporting of costs ... -
When two movements collide: Learning from labour and environmental struggles for future Just Transitions
(Futures, 2022)The term ‘Just Transition’ (JT) emerged from the 1970s North American labour movement to become a campaign for a planned energy transition that includes justice and fairness for workers. There is diversity in the JT ... -
When we cannot have it all: Ecosystem services trade-offs in the context of spatial planning
(Elsevier, 2018)Spatial planning has to deal with trade-offs between various stakeholders wishes and needs as part of planning and management of landscapes, natural resources and/or biodiversity. To make ecosystem services (ES) trade-off ... -
Where is the EU headed given its current climate policy? A stakeholder-driven model inter-comparison
(Science of the Total Environment, 2021-11-01)Recent calls to do climate policy research with, rather than for, stakeholders have been answered in non-modelling science. Notwithstanding progress in modelling literature, however, very little of the scenario space traces ...
