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. ...
