Transparency and Reproducibility in Participatory Systems Modelling: the Case of Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping
(John Wiley and Sons, 2018)
By aggregating semi-quantitative mind maps from multiple agents, fuzzy cognitive mapping (FCM) allows developing an integrated, cross-sectoral understanding of complex systems. However, and especially for FCM based on ...
The potential of behavioural change for climate change mitigation: a case study for the European Union
(Springer, 2018)
Mainstream literature on climate change concentrates overwhelmingly on technological solutions for this global long-term problem, while a change towards climate-friendly behaviour could play a role in emission reduction ...
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 ...
Emergence of new knowledge for climate change adaptation
(Elsevier, 2018)
Decision-making for climate change adaptation requires an integrated and cross-sectoral approach to adequately capture the complexity of interconnected systems. More meaningful decisions can be taken in an arena where ...
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. ...
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 ...
Targeting PML in triple negative breast cancer elicits growth suppression and senescence
(Nature, 2020-04)
Oncogene addiction postulates that the survival and growth of certain tumor cells is dependent upon the activity of one oncogene, despite their multiple genetic and epigenetic abnormalities. This phenomenon provides a ...
Flat-shaped carbon-graphene microcomposites as electrodes for high energy supercapacitors
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-06-28)
Herein, we report a simple approach for the preparation of phosphate-functionalized carbonaceous graphene-based composites. The homogeneous deposition of a thin layer of phenolic resin on the surface of graphene oxide (GO) ...
