We agree with Larkin et al. 2019: Restoration is context specific
(Royal Society B-Biological Sciences, 2019)... -
Unexplained hydrogen isotope offsets complicate the identification and quantification of tree water sources in a riparian forest
(EGU Publications, 2019)We investigated plant water sources of an emblematic refugial population of Fagus sylvatica (L.) in the Ciron river gorges in south-western France using stable water isotopes. It is generally assumed that no isotopic ... -
To what extent is climate change adaptation a novel challenge for agricultural modellers?
(Elsevier, 2019)Modelling is key to adapting agriculture to climate change (CC), facilitating evaluation of the impacts and efficacy of adaptation measures, and the design of optimal strategies. Although there are many challenges to ... -
Dedicated versus mainstreaming approaches in local climate plans in Europe
(Elsevier, 2019)Cities are gaining prominence committing to respond to the threat of climate change, e.g., by developing local climate plans or strategies. However, little is known regarding the approaches and processes of plan development ... -
Empirical and dynamic approaches for modelling the yield and N content of European grasslands
(Elsevier, 2019)We applied two approaches to model grassland yield and nitrogen (N) content. The first was a series of regression equations; the second was the Century dynamic model. The regression model was generated from data from ... -
Spatially explicit species distribution models: A missed opportunity in conservation planning?
(John Wiley and Sons, 2019)Aim: Systematic conservation planning is vital for allocating protected areas given the spatial distribution of conservation features, such as species. Due to incomplete species inventories, species distribution models ... -
Urban green space: creating a triple win for environmental sustainability, health, and health equity through behavior change
(MDPI, 2019)Urbanization, costs of green space maintenance, and diminishing connection between people and nature all exert pressures on urban green space. This is regrettable as green space has the potential to create wins for ... -
Exploring the usefulness of scenario archetypes in science-policy processes: Experience across IPBES assessments
(The Resilience Alliance, 2019)Scenario analyses have been used in multiple science-policy assessments to better understand complex plausible futures. Scenario archetype approaches are based on the fact that many future scenarios have similar underlying ... -
Fluvial sedimentary deposits as carbon sinks: Organic carbon pools and stabilization mechanisms across a Mediterranean catchment
(EGU Publications, 2019)p'The role of fluvial sedimentary areas as organic carbon sinks remains largely unquantified. Little is known about mechanisms of organic carbon (OC) stabilization in alluvial sediments in semiarid and subhumid catchments ... -
Social equity shapes zone-selection: Balancing aquatic biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services delivery in the transboundaryDanube River Basin
(Elsevier, 2019)Freshwater biodiversity is declining, despite national and international efforts to manage and protect freshwater ecosystems. Ecosystem-based management (EBM) has been proposed as an approach that could more efficiently ... -
Ten lessons for good practice for the INHERIT triple win: Health, equity, and environmental sustainability
(MDPI, 2019)The world s challenges of climate change, damage to ecosystems, and social and health inequalities require changes in human behaviours at every level of organisation, among governments, business, communities, and individuals. ... -
Restaurando la funcionalidad de los ecosistemas: La importancia de las interacciones entre especies
(AEET, 2019)Restoration of natural ecosystems has traditionally focused on recovering specific richness to recover ecosystem functionality. However, species within a natural ecosystem are not isolated, they interact with others forming ... -
Risk measures and the distribution of damage curves for 600 European coastal cities
(IOP Publishing, 2019)A good understanding of climate change damages is vital to design effective adaptation policies and measures. Using a dataset of probabilistic sea-level rise and other of flood damages and protection cost curves for the ... -

Taxing air pollutants and carbon individually or jointly: results from a CGE model enriched by an emission abatement sector
(The International Input Output Association, 2019)We analyse the separate and collective impacts of emissions taxation to understand the internalisation effects of externalities. The analysis is carried out using a static computable general equilibrium model, with ... -
Interactive effects of forest die-off and drying-rewetting cycles on C and N mineralization
(Elsevier, 2019)Mediterranean forests will experience more frequent and intense drought periods and extreme rainfall events in the coming decades. Concomitantly, drought-induced forest die-off is likely to increase. Changes in rainfall ... -
How to make ecological models useful for environmental management
(Elsevier, 2019)Understanding and predicting the ecological consequences of different management alternatives is becoming increasingly important to support environmental management decisions. Ecological models could contribute to such ... -
The Role and Need for Space-Based Forest Biomass-Related Measurements in Environmental Management and Policy
(Springer, 2019)The achievement of international goals and national commitments related to forest conservation and management, climate change, and sustainable development requires credible, accurate, and reliable monitoring of stocks and ... -
A novel optimization approach incorporating non-stomatal limitations predicts stomatal behaviour in species from six plant functional types
(Oxford University Press, 2019)The primary function of stomata is to minimize plant water loss while maintaining CO 2 assimilation. Stomatal water loss incurs an indirect cost to photosynthesis in the form of non-stomatal limitations (NSL) via reduced ... -
Presión antrópica sobre cuencas de drenaje en ecosistemas frágiles: variaciones en las existencias (stock) de carbono orgánico asociadas a cambios morfológicos fluviales
(Universidad de La Rioja, 2019)Anthropic changes in the drainage area of catchments can influence dominant erosion processes and sediment sources and mobilize specific carbon pools. It also causes changes in the sedimentary dynamics and thus in the ...
