Is it all about supply? Demand-side effects on the Spanish electricity market following Covid-19 lockdown policies
(Utilities Policy, 2023)A key characteristic of electricity prices is their sensitivity to changes in supply and demand. In this sense, the Covid-19 lockdown policies modified electricity consumption patterns at both business and household levels, ... -
Is it just conservation? A typology of Indigenous peoples’ and local communities’ roles in conserving biodiversity
(One Earth, 2024-01-01)As conservation initiatives expand in response to biodiversity loss, there remains limited understanding about what forms of governance and roles for different actors produce the best ecological outcomes. Indigenous peoples’ ... -
Is renewable energy a cost-effective mitigation resource? An application to the Spanish electricity market
(Elsevier, 2018)This paper evaluates the net effect of renewable energy policy in Spain from 2002 to 2017 and calculates its cost-effectiveness in terms of CO2 emission reductions in the production of electricity. Our conclusions indicate ... -
Is Seasonal Households' Consumption Good for the Nexus Carbon/Water Footprint? the Spanish Fruits and Vegetables Case
(American Chemical Society, 2018)Proximity and in-season consumption criteria have been suggested as solutions for fruits and vegetables consumers to drive the economy to a more sustainable development. Using a new concept, seasonal avoided footprint by ... -
Isotopic offsets between bulk plant water and its sources are larger in cool and wet environments
(Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2022)Isotope-based approaches to study plant water sources rely on the assumption that root water uptake and within-plant water transport are non-fractionating processes. However, a growing number of studies have reported offsets ... -
Isótopos de Neodimio y Estroncio como indicadores del área fuente del material terrígeno depositado en el NE de Brasil
(Instituto Geologico y Minero de Espana, 2018)This study investigates the sedimentary origin of materials deposited by the Amazon River over the last 30 kyr BP and reconstructs the precipitation pattern of the source area at the time of the erosion. For this purpose, ... -
Justice, sustainability, and the diverse values of nature: why they matter for biodiversity conservation
(Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2023)Aiming at just and sustainable futures for biodiversity conservation requires clarity concerning how justice relates to the diverse values of nature. By drawing upon and expanding on the recent Values Assessment of ... -
KEYLINK: Towards a more integrative soil representation for inclusion in ecosystem scale models - II: Model description, implementation and testing
(PeerJ, 2021)New knowledge on soil structure highlights its importance for hydrology and soil organic matter (SOM) stabilization, which however remains neglected in many wide used models. We present here a new model, KEYLINK, in which ... -
KEYLINK: Towards a more integrative soil representation for inclusion in ecosystem scale models. I. review and model concept
(PeerJ, 2020-01-01)The relatively poor simulation of the below-ground processes is a severe drawback for many ecosystem models, especially when predicting responses to climate change and management. For a meaningful estimation of ecosystem ... -

Knowledge co-production and transdisciplinarity: Opening Pandora's box
(MDPI, 2019)This Special Issue aims to reflect on knowledge co-production and transdisciplinarity, exploring the mutual interaction between water governance and water research. We do so with contributions that bring examples from ... -
Land cover effects on hydrologic services under a precipitation gradient
(EGU Publications, 2018)Climate change impacts on the hydrological cycle are altering the quantity, quality, and temporal distribution of riverine discharge, necessitating a more rigorous consideration of changes in land cover and land use. This ... -
Land markets, Property rights, and Deforestation: Insights from Indonesia
(Elsevier, 2017)We examine the emergence of land markets and their effects on forest land appropriation by farm households in Jambi Province, Sumatra, using micro-level data covering land use and land transactions for a period of more ... -
