Monitoring environmental sustainability in Japan: an ESGAP assessment
(Sustainability Science, 2024-01-01)
This paper assesses the environmental sustainability of Japan by applying the environmental sustainability gap (ESGAP) framework, which builds on the concepts of strong sustainability, critical natural capital, environmental ...
Why nature matters: A systematic review of intrinsic, instrumental, and relational values
(BioScience, 2024-01-01)
In this article, we present results from a literature review of intrinsic, instrumental, and relational values of nature conducted for the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, ...
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 ...
Platforms for ecosystem services modeling: An applied example to the northern Patagonia
(Ecologia Austral, 2023-12-01)
Los avances tecnológicos y metodológicos de las últimas décadas (e.g., información satelital, potencia de los ordenadores, análisis geoespacial, desarrollo de algoritmos) facilitaron buscar soluciones a problemas complejos ...
Influence of farm diversity on nitrogen and greenhouse gas emission sources from key European dairy cattle systems: A step towards emission mitigation and nutrient circularity
(Agricultural Systems, 2024)
European dairy cattle production systems (DPS) are facing multiple challenges that threaten their social, economic, and environmental sustainability. In this context, it is crucial to implement options to promote the ...
Three different directions in which the European Union could replace Russian natural gas
(Energy, 2024-03-01)

Adaption planning to climate change in industrial fisheries: Progress in the Basque tropical tuna fishery
(Marine Policy, 2024-03-01)
Climate change impacts on ocean living organisms and ecosystems have flow-on effects on fisheries and their associated values. Industrial fisheries operate long distance fleets that potentially have the capacity to respond ...
Spatial biases reduce the ability of Earth system models to simulate soil heterotrophic respiration fluxes
(Biogeosciences, 2024-02-02)
Heterotrophic respiration (Rh) is, at a global scale, one of the largest CO2 fluxes between the Earth's surface and atmosphere and may increase in the future. The previous generation of Earth system models (ESMs) was able ...
Convergence and divergence in science and practice of urban and rural forest restoration
(Biological Reviews, 2024-02-01)
Forest restoration has never been higher on policymakers' agendas. Complex and multi-dimensional arrangements across the urban–rural continuum challenge restorationists and require integrative approaches to strengthen ...
Are there gender differences in household carbon footprints? Evidence from Spain
(Ecological Economics, 2024-05-01)
Identifying the main drivers of the household carbon footprint (HCF) is a priority to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and move towards a more sustainable economy. Among the multiple factors that explain the HCF, some ...
