Quantifying the services of natural and built infrastructure in the context of climate change: The case of the Tana River Basin, Kenya
(IWMI Research Report, 2019)
A study was conducted to explore the synergies and trade-offs between built and natural infrastructure in the Tana River Basin. A simple framework for better understanding the interactions and co-dependencies between ...
Combined artificial intelligence, sustainable land management, and stakeholder engagement for integrated landscape management in Mediterranean watersheds
(Environmental Science and Policy, 2023)
In the context of water scarcity, soil erosion, and biodiversity decline, the Mediterranean basin urges to manage its nearly hundred coastal watersheds in a coordinated manner. To this end, we propose an integrated approach ...
Comparable GHG emissions from animals in wildlife and livestock-dominated savannas
(npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023)
Pastoralism in Old World savannas is known to emit a significant share of global livestock-sourced greenhouse gases (GHG). Here, we compare calculated emissions from animals in a wildlife-dominated savanna (14.3 Mg km−2), ...
NonParRolCor: An R package for estimating rolling correlation for two regular time series
(SoftwareX, 2023)
The R package NonParRolCor estimates rolling window correlations between two regular time series. The statistical significance estimated for the rolling correlation coefficients addresses effects due to multiple testing. ...
Connected Conservation: Rethinking conservation for a telecoupled world
(Biological Conservation, 2023)
The convergence of the biodiversity and climate crises, widening of wealth inequality, and most recently the COVID-19 pandemic underscore the urgent need to mobilize change to secure sustainable futures. Centres of tropical ...
Ensuring a just energy transition: A distributional analysis of diesel tax reform in Spain with stakeholder engagement
(Energy Policy, 2023)
Despite the consensus that green taxation is an effective way to accelerate the decarbonization of economies, few countries are implementing ambitious tax reforms. This is the case of diesel for transport in Spain. The ...
Moist and warm conditions in Eurasia during the last glacial of the Middle Pleistocene Transition
(Nature communications, 2023)
The end of the Middle Pleistocene Transition (MPT, ~ 800-670 thousand years before present, ka) was characterised by the emergence of large glacial ice-sheets associated with anomalously warm North Atlantic sea surface ...
Whose waters, whose nutrients? Knowledge, uncertainty, and controversy over eutrophication in the Mar Menor
(Ambio, 2023)
This work explores the role of knowledge claims and uncertainty in the public dispute over the causes and solutions to nonpoint-driven overfertilization of the Mar Menor lagoon (Spain). Drawing on relational uncertainty ...
W2CWM2C reloaded: Ten years later[Formula presented]
(Software Impacts, 2023)
We present an updated version v2.2 of the R package W2CWM2C (a graphical tool for wavelet (cross) correlation and multiple wavelet (cross) correlation analysis) v1.0. W2CWM2C contains a set of R functions that improve the ...
Animal board invited review: Opportunities and challenges in using GWP* to report the impact of ruminant livestock on global temperature change
(Animal, 2023)
Ruminant livestock is a large contributor of CH4 emissions globally. Assessing how this CH4 and other greenhouse gases (GHG) from livestock contribute to anthropogenic climate change is key to understanding their role in ...
