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 ...
Deadwood density, C stocks and their controlling factors in a beech-silver fir mixed virgin European forest
(Forest Ecology and Management, 2023-07-01)
Deadwood is a fundamental structural and functional component of forests, with a crucial role in supporting forest biodiversity, nutrient and carbon cycling. Precise deadwood density estimates and its relation to environmental ...
Using Deep Learning and Radar Backscatter for Mapping River Water Surface
(International Conference on Geographical Information Systems Theory, Applications and Management, GISTAM - Proceedings, 2023-01-01)
In the last decades, the effects of global warming combined with growing anthropogenic activities have caused a mismatch in the water supply-demand, resulting in a negative impact on numerous Mediterranean rivers regime ...
Underrated past herbivore densities could lead to misoriented sustainability policies.
(npj Biodiversity, 2023-01-06)
Knowing the carrying capacity of the Earth’s grazed ecosystems, and the relevance of herbivory, is important for many scientific disciplines, as well as for policy. Current herbivore levels are estimated to be four to five ...
A global meta-analysis of the impacts of forest fragmentation on biotic mutualisms and antagonisms
(Conservation Biology, 2023)
Forest fragmentation is a grave threat to biodiversity. Forests are becoming increasingly fragmented with more than 70% now < 1 km from forest edge. Although much is known about the effects of forest fragmentation on ...
A data-driven approach to analyse the co-evolution of urban systems through a resilience lens: A Helsinki case study
(Environment and Planning B: Urban Analytics and City Science, 2024)
Urban areas are dynamic systems, in which different infrastructural, social and economic subsystems
continuously co-evolve. As such, disruptions in one system can propagate to another.
However, open challenges remain in ...
The resurgence of commons and the governance of traditional commons systems at risk: The case of Enirio-Aralar
(Lurralde: Investigacion y Espacio, 2018)
The study of commons has resurged vigorously. In this context the analysis of traditional grazing commons whose governance is subject to great challenges associated with changing socio-economic conditions and the co-existence ...
