A meta-analysis of environmental factor effects on ammonia emissions from dairy cattle houses
(Elsevier, 2019)
Livestock housing is one of the main sources of ammonia (NH3) emissions from agriculture. Different management and environmental factors are known to affect NH3 emissions from housing systems. The aim of this study was to ...
Landscape-scale modelling of agroforestry ecosystems services in Swiss orchards: a methodological approach
(Springer, 2018)
Context: Agroforestry systems in temperate Europe are known to provide both, provisioning and regulating ecosystem services (ES). Yet, it is poorly understood how these systems affect ES provision at a landscape scale in ...
Stakeholders perspectives on the operationalisation of the ecosystem service concept: Results from 27 case studies
(Elsevier, 2018)
The ecosystem service (ES) concept is becoming mainstream in policy and planning, but operational influence on practice is seldom reported. Here, we report the practitioners perspectives on the practical implementation ...
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 ...
Land markets, Property rights, and Deforestation: Insights from Indonesia
(Elsevier, 2017)
We examine the emergence of land markets and their effects on forest land appropriation by farm households in Jambi Province, Sumatra, using micro-level data covering land use and land transactions for a period of more ...
Historical energy price shocks and their changing effects on the economy
(Elsevier, 2017)
The purpose of this paper is to identify the changes in the impact of energy shocks on economic activity with an interest in assessing if an economy's vulnerability and resilience to shocks improved with economic ...
Border Carbon Adjustments Based on Avoided Emissions: Addressing the Challenge of Its Design
(Elsevier, 2018)
Carbon pricing is an essential instrument to address climate change. However international differences in carbon control policies may cause not only carbon leakage but also competitiveness disadvantages. In this context, ...
Recovery of lakes and coastal marine ecosystems from eutrophication: A global meta-analysis
(Wiley, 2017)
In order to inform policies aimed at reducing nutrient emissions to surface waters, it is essential to understand how aquatic ecosystems respond to eutrophication management. Using data from 89 studies worldwide, we examined ...
Anthropogenic ecosystem disturbance and the recovery debt
(Nature, 2017)
Ecosystem recovery from anthropogenic disturbances, either without human intervention or assisted by ecological restoration, is increasingly occurring worldwide. As ecosystems progress through recovery, it is important to ...
Elevated CO2 did not affect the hydrological balance of a mature native Eucalyptus woodland
(John Wiley and Sons, 2018)
Elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration (eCa) might reduce forest water-use, due to decreased transpiration, following partial stomatal closure, thus enhancing water-use efficiency and productivity at low water availability. ...
