The end of the first working program of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) provided an opportunity to draw lessons from its work. This perspective paper captures ...
Evaluating integrated impacts of low-emission transitions in the livestock sector
(Elsevier, 2020)
This paper provides the results of a combined qualitative and quantitative assessment of key impacts for two low-emission transition pathways for the Dutch livestock sector. These impacts or side-effects can be positive ...
Combining eight research areas to foster the uptake of ecosystem-based management in fresh waters
(John Wiley and Sons, 2019)
Freshwater ecosystems are under a constant risk of being irreversibly damaged by human pressures that threaten their biodiversity, the sustainability of ecosystem services (ESs), and human well-being. Despite the implementation ...
Factors affecting energy-efficiency investment in the hotel industry: survey results from Spain
(Energy Efficiency, 2021)
Increasing energy efficiency is a major way of saving energy and thus reducing energy expenses. However, adoption of energy efficiency is generally low, as demonstrated by the energy efficiency gap. To understand that gap, ...
Biodiversity and the challenge of pluralism
(Nature Sustainability, 2021)

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 ...
