Ecological economics in the age of fear
(Elsevier, 2020)
Far right political movements are rising and seizing power in many influential countries, affecting not only the governance of democratic regimes but also the science-policy relationship and the global environmental agenda. ...
Assessing risks of low-carbon transition pathways
(Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions, 2020)
A first chronology for the East Greenland Ice-core Project (EGRIP) over the Holocene and last glacial termination
(Climate of the Past, 2020)
This paper provides the first chronology for the deep ice core from the East Greenland Ice-core Project (EGRIP) over the Holocene and the late last glacial period. We rely mainly on volcanic events and common peak patterns ...
Coupling circularity performance and climate action: From disciplinary silos to transdisciplinary modelling science
(Sustainable Production and Consumption, 2022)
Technological breakthroughs and policy measures targeting energy efficiency and clean energy alone will not suffice to deliver Paris Agreement-compliant greenhouse gas emissions trajectories in the next decades. Strong ...
Double accounting in energy footprint and related assessments: How common is it and what are the consequences?
(ENERGY, 2021)
The number of input-output assessments focused on energy has grown considerably in the last years. Many of these assessments combine data from multi-regional input-output (MRIO) databases with energy extensions that ...
A simple model for the effect of thermal stress on the productivity of small ruminants
(Livestock Science, 2021)
Projected climatic changes are expected to change temperature and precipitation patterns and to increase the frequency of extreme events in many regions of the world. This will affect livestock systems through direct effects ...
On flexible hydropower and security of supply: Spain beyond 2020
(Elsevier, 2020)
Generation adequacy is a key ingredient to security of electricity supply (SoS). Some national plans envisage a future decrease in the number of coal-fired stations and an increase in renewable installed capacity. This ...
A game theory model to explore the role of cooperation and diversity in community food security: the case of Southern Malawi
(Springer-Verlag GmbH, 2020)
The Sustainable Development Goals aim at ending food insecurity by 2030. Therefore, civil society needs to understand the inherent complexities of both socio-economic and ecological dynamics and their interdependencies. ...
Guidelines for small ruminant production systems under climate emergency in Europe
(SMALL RUMINANT RESEARCH, 2020)
Projected climate change will involve an additional threat for the sustainability of small ruminant production systems in Europe. Aiming to understand its implications, we conducted a literature review on climate change ...
The potential land requirements and related land use change emissions of solar energy
(Nature, 2021-02-03)
Although the transition to renewable energies will intensify the global competition for land, the potential impacts driven by solar energy remain unexplored. In this work, the potential solar land requirements and related ...
