Ecosystem service coproduction across the zones of biosphere reserves in Europe
(Ecosystems and People, 2021-09-06)Biosphere reserves (BR) balance biodiversity protection and sustainable use through different management restrictions in three zones: core areas, buffer zones, and transition areas. Information about the links between ... -
Ecosystem service mismatches evidence inequalities in urban heat vulnerability
(Science of the Total Environment, 2024-04-20)Exposure to heat poses a pressing challenge in cities, with uneven health and environmental impacts across the urban fabric. To assess disparities in heat vulnerability and its environmental justice implications, we model ... -
Ecosystem services and nature's contribution to people: negotiating diverse values and trade-offs in land systems
(Elsevier, 2019)Land is increasingly managed to serve multiple societal demands. Beyond food, fiber, habitation, and recreation, land is now being called on to meet demands for carbon sequestration, water purification, biodiversity ... -
Ecosystem transpiration and evaporation: Insights from three water flux partitioning methods across FLUXNET sites
(GLOBAL CHANGE BIOLOGY, 2020)We apply and compare three widely applicable methods for estimating ecosystem transpiration (T) from eddy covariance (EC) data across 251 FLUXNET sites globally. All three methods are based on the coupled water and carbon ... -
Ecosystem-based management planning across aquatic realms at the Ria de Aveiro Natura 2000 territory
(Elsevier, 2019)Ria de Aveiro represents a coastal territory, in which its natural capital, mostly classified under a Natura 2000 network of protected areas, is of paramount importance for the regional and national economy, supporting ... -
Edge disturbance drives liana abundance increase and alteration of liana host tree interactions in tropical forest fragments
(John Wiley and Sons, 2018)Closed-canopy forests are being rapidly fragmented across much of the tropical world. Determining the impacts of fragmentation on ecological processes enables better forest management and improves species-conservation ... -
Editorial overview: Relational values: what are they, and what's the fuss about?
(Elsevier, 2018)Relational values as preferences, principles and virtues about human-nature relationships have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years. The term has been used to include concepts and knowledge from a wide range ... -
Efectos en el medio rural de la energía solar y bioenergética en los escenarios de descarbonización de España para 2050
(Papeles de energía, 2020)En un futuro descarbonizado en España, el papel de la energía solar y la bioenergía requiere una ocupación de la tierra, con impactos negativos y positivos para las zonas más rurales del país. -
Effect of dairy cattle production systems on sustaining soil organic carbon storage in grasslands of northern Spain
(Regional Environmental Change, 2022)Predicting the regional net greenhouse gas emissions (Net GHG) of grasslands is increasingly important, as these are one of the most globally widespread vegetation types, providing several ecosystem services. In this study, ... -
Effectiveness of monetary information in promoting the purchase of energy-efficient appliances: Evidence from a field experiment in Spain
(Energy Research and Social Science, 2023)The effectiveness of energy labels is crucial in nudging the adoption of energy-efficient products. Here we analyse how providing monetary information on the cost of energy affects the purchases of energy-efficient appliances. ... -
Effects of Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage in Germany on European Electricity Exchange and Welfare
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2012-06-06)In the course of European efforts to mitigate global warming, the application of carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technologies is discussed as a potential option. Some political opposition was raised – inter alia ... -
Effects of climate change and management policies on marine fisheries productivity in the north-east coast of India
(Elsevier, 2020)The study covers two important deltaic systems of the north-east coast of India, viz. the Bengal and Mahanadi delta that support about 1.25 million people. The changes in potential marine fish production and socio-economic ... -
Effects of Climate Change on the European Nuclear Power Sector
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2010-09-23)Anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases cause climate change and this change in turn induces various direct impacts, e.g., changes in regional weather patterns. The frequency of heat waves and droughts in Europe is ... -
Effects of disturbance and alien plants on the phylogenetic structure of riverine communities
(Journal of Vegetation Science, 2021-01-01)Questions: Phylogenetic analyses provide important insights in the study of biological invasions. Previous studies have shown contrasting effects of alien species on the phylogenetic structure of recipient communities. In ... -
Effects of historical land-use change in the Mediterranean environment
(Science of the Total Environment, 2020-08-25)During the Holocene (last ~11,700 years), societies have continuously modified the landscape of the Mediterranean Basin through changes in land-use, exerting extraordinary pressures onto the environment and adding variability ... -
Effects of impurities on the ice microstructure of Monte Perdido Glacier, Central Pyrenees, NE Spain
(Cambridge University Press, 2023)Monte Perdido Glacier, located in the central Pyrenees, is one of the southernmost glaciers in Europe. Due to climate change, this glacier is suffering an accelerated mass loss, especially in the last decades. If the current ... -
Effects of international trade of food and feed and human diet shifts on food security and environmental safety: integrating scales
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2013-12-16)*International trade of food and feed (expressed as protein content) has increased eightfold during the last 50 years. Nowadays a small number of countries are feeding the rest of the world. Population growth but also a ... -
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. ... -
