Linking Land and Sea Through an Ecological-Economic Model of Coral Reef Recreation
(Ecological Economics, 2020-11-01)
Coastal zones are popular recreational areas that substantially contribute to social welfare. Managers can use information about specific environmental features that people value, and how these might change under different ...
Differences in temperature sensitivity and drought recovery between natural stands and plantations of conifers are species-specific
(Science of the Total Environment, 2021-11-20)
Forests are being impacted by climate and land-use changes which have altered their productivity and growth. Understanding how tree growth responds to climate in natural and planted stands may provide valuable information ...
Agro-economic and socio-environmental assessments of food and virtual water trades of Iran
(Scientific Reports, 2021-12-01)
Ending hunger and ensuring food security are among targets of 2030 s SDGs. While food trade and the embedded (virtual) water (VW) may improve food availability and accessibility for more people all year round, the ...
Risk blindness in local perspectives about the Alberta oil sands hinders Canada's decarbonization
(Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions, 2021-09-01)
Local perspectives can conflict with national and international climate targets. This study explores three stakeholder (community, provincial, and federal) perspectives on the Alberta oil sands as risks for a sustainability ...
Relational quality and uncertainty in common pool water management: an exploratory lab experiment
(Scientific Reports, 2021-12-01)
If there is one certainty for the sustainable management of water resources is that facing uncertainty is an unavoidable matter. A concern that, in addition to the best available scientific knowledge and models, requires ...
Memory order decomposition of symbolic sequences
(Physical Review E, 2021-07-01)
We introduce a general method for the study of memory in symbolic sequences based on higher-order Markov analysis. The Markov process that best represents a sequence is expressed as a mixture of matrices of minimal orders, ...
Distribution of responsibility for climate change within the milieu
(Philosophies, 2021-09-01)
This article approaches the challenges of the distribution of responsibility for climate change on a local level using the framework of the milieu. It suggests that the framework of the milieu, inspired by Japanese and ...
Opportunities for an African greenhouse gas observation system
(Regional Environmental Change, 2021-12-01)
Global population projections foresee the biggest increase to occur in Africa with most of the available uncultivated land to ensure food security remaining on the continent. Simultaneously, greenhouse gas emissions are ...
Guiding cities under increased droughts: The limits to sustainable urban futures
(Ecological Economics, 2021-11-01)
