Factors affecting energy-efficiency investment in the hotel industry: survey results from Spain
(Energy Efficiency, 2021)Increasing energy efficiency is a major way of saving energy and thus reducing energy expenses. However, adoption of energy efficiency is generally low, as demonstrated by the energy efficiency gap. To understand that gap, ... -
Farmers vulnerability to global change in Navarre, Spain: large-scale irrigation as maladaptation
(Springer, 2019)Agricultural landscapes are dynamic environments which change in response to cropping and trade opportunities, available technologies and climatic conditions. In this article, we investigate farmers vulnerability to ... -
Finance, energy and the decoupling: an empirical study
(Springer-Verlag, 2018)This paper investigates the empirical and theoretical basis of the decoupling between energy throughput and economic growth, with a critical view of the use of the decoupling concept as a policy priority. We provide an ... -

Financing climate and sustainability policies: The impact of sustainability bonds on the Basque country
(Ekonomiaz, 2020-01-01)Climate finance refers to the flow of financial resources for the fight against climate change and contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). The debt market can play an essential role through ... -
Fire risk modeling: An integrated and data-driven approach applied to Sicily
(Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023-09-06)Wildfires are key not only to landscape transformation and vegetation succession, but also to socio-ecological values loss. Fire risk mapping can help to manage the most vulnerable and relevant ecosystems impacted by ... -

Flight delays in Germany: a model for evaluation of future cost risk
(European Journal of Transport and Infrastructure Research, 2022-01-01)Air traffic has been increasing in Germany over the last decades reaching in 2018 an all-time high with more than 3 million flights. This increase has led to a rise in delays, which generate different costs to airlines, ... -
Floating matter: a neglected component of the ecological integrity of rivers
(Springer, 2019)Floating matter (FM) is a pivotal, albeit neglected, element along river corridors contributing to their ecological integrity. FM consists of particulate matter of natural (e.g. wood, branches, leaves, seeds) and anthropogenic ... -
FlowRegEnvCost: An R Package for Assessing the Environmental Cost of River Flow Regulation
(Springer Nature, 2020)FlowRegEnvCost is an R package developed for evaluating the environmental costs of river flow regulation. The methods for calculating the costs are separated in three steps: (i) measuring the admissible range of variability ... -
Fluvial geomorphological dynamics and land use changes: impact on the organic carbon stocks of soil and sediment
(Bosque, 2019)The drainage basin of the Turrilla river (SE of Spain) went through important land cover changes since 1950s; from mainly an agrarian scenario in 1956 to other depopulated and forested in 2015. This study analyzes the ... -
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 ... -
Forest expansion in mountain protected areas: Trends and consequences for the landscape
(Landscape and Urban Planning, 2021)Mountain regions in Western Europe have gone through a massive rural urban migration and the collapse of their traditional socioeconomic system. As a result, forest has occupied many old pastures and croplands. In protected ... -
Framing natural assets for advancing sustainability research: translating different perspectives into actions
(Springer, 2018)Sustainability is a key challenge for humanity in the context of complex and unprecedented global changes. Future Earth, an international research initiative aiming to advance global sustainability science, has recently ... -

Fresh perspectives for classic forest restoration challenges
(Society for Ecological Restoration, 2020)Restoration ecology is a young scientific discipline whose limitations can compromise the recovery of ecosystem biodiversity and functions. Specifically for limitations on forest restoration, we first recommend considering ... -
Freshwater megafauna diversity: Patterns, status and threats
(DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTIONS, 2018)Aim: Freshwater megafauna remain underrepresented in research and conservation, despite a disproportionately high risk of extinction due to multiple human threats. Therefore, our aims are threefold; (i) identify global ... -
From consultation toward co-production in science and policy: A critical systematic review of participatory climate and energy initiatives
(Energy Research and Social Science, 2021-03-01)In recent decades, co-production has become a cornerstone both in science and policy-making, motivating further collaboration between different actors. To scrutinize such participatory processes within the climate and ... -
