IAOx induces the SUR phenotype and differential signalling from IAA under different types of nitrogen nutrition in Medicago truncatula roots
(Plant Science, 2019-10-01)Indole-3-acetaldoxime (IAOx) is a particularly relevant molecule as an intermediate in the pathway for tryptophan-dependent auxin biosynthesis. The role of IAOx in growth-signalling and root phenotype is poorly studied in ... -
Identification of conservation and restoration priority areas in the Danube River based on the multi-functionality of river-floodplain systems
(Elsevier, 2019)Large river-floodplain systems are hotspots of biodiversity and ecosystem services but are also used for multiple human activities, making them one of the most threatened ecosystems worldwide. There is wide evidence that ... -
Identification of potential locations for small hydropower plant based on resources time footprint: A case study in Dan River Basin, China
(Renewable Energy, 2023)mall hydropower has attracted extensive interest as a clean technology. This study first identified possible sites of small hydropower plants with estimated capacity, and then utilized resources time footprint as a novel ... -
Identification of suspicious behavior through anomalies in the tracking data of fishing vessels
(EPJ Data Science, 2024-12-01)Automated positioning devices can generate large datasets with information on the movement of humans, animals and objects, revealing patterns of movement, hot spots and overlaps among others. However, in the case of Automated ... -
Identifying optimal technological portfolios for European power generation towards climate change mitigation: A robust portfolio analysis approach
(Elsevier, 2019)Here, an integrative approach is proposed to link integrated assessment modelling results from the GCAM model with a novel portfolio analysis framework. This framework comprises a bi-objective optimisation model, Monte ... -
Impact and distribution of climatic damages: a methodological proposal with a dynamic CGE model applied to global climate negotiations
(Springer Nature, 2018)The UNFCCC Paris Agreement, entered into force on 4 November 2016, represents a step forward in involving all countries in mitigation actions, even though it is based on a voluntary approach and lacks the active participation ... -
Impact of environmental factors on the presence of quinolizidine alkaloids in lupins: a review
(Food Additives and Contaminants - Part A, 2023)Lupin seeds have a high potential as an alternative for animal proteins in feed and food. However, the possible presence of alkaloids hinders the usage of lupins in human diets. This review aims to identify the main factors ... -
Impactos y adaptación al cambio climático en rumiantes
(ITEA-Informacion Tecnica Economica Agraria, 2020)Climate change will affect ruminant systems through direct effects on animal performance, and indirect effects on pasture and forage availability. As impacts will be very unequal amongst different regions and production ... -
Implementing Integrated Water Resources Management in the Ebro River Basin: From Theory to Facts
(MDPI, 2015)In this article, we analyze how successful the implementation of Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) in the Ebro river catchment (in Spain) has been. Our main aim is to show some gaps between theory and practice. ... -
Implications of switching fossil fuel subsidies to solar: A case study for the European Union
(MDPI, 2017)Fossil fuel subsidies (FFS) constitute one of the most obvious barriers to tackling climate change, as they encourage inefficient energy consumption and divert investment away from clean energy sources. According to the ... -
Importance of fisheries for food security across three climate change vulnerable deltas
(Elsevier, 2018)Deltas are home to a large and growing proportion of the world's population, often living in conditions of extreme poverty. Deltaic ecosystems are ecologically significant as they support high biodiversity and a variety ... -
La importancia de la eficiencia energética: evidencia reciente para España
(Papeles de Economía Española, 2022-12-05)The IPCC report shows that there is a gap between the need to achieve net GHG emissions by 2050, and what has been promised by political leaders. In this context, energy efficiency can play a key role in promoting ... -
Improving collaboration between ecosystem service communities and the IPBES science-policy platform
(Taylor and Francis, 2020)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 ... -

Incorporating non-stomatal limitation improves the performance of leaf and canopy models at high vapour pressure deficit
(Oxford University Press, 2019)Vapour pressure deficit (D) is projected to increase in the future as temperature rises. In response to increased D, stomatal conductance (gs) and photosynthesis (A) are reduced, which may result in significant reductions ... -
Increasing crop richness and reducing field sizes provide higher yields to pollinator-dependent crops
(Journal of Applied Ecology, 2023)Agricultural landscapes cover >60% of terrestrial landscapes. While biodiversity conservation and crop productivity have been seen as mutually exclusive options for a long time, recent research suggests that agricultural ... -
Indicators for relational values of nature s contributions to good quality of life: the IPBES approach for Europe and Central Asia
(Taylor and Francis, 2020)Relational values are values of desirable relationships between people and nature and among people (through nature). We report on the approach to capture relational values of nature s contributions to people in the regional ... -
Indirect interactions between pollinators drive interaction rewiring through space
(Ecosphere, 2023-06-01)In recent years, an extended body of literature has focused on the importance of either temporal or spatial dynamics in shaping the structure of interacting plant and pollinator communities. This improvement from a previously ... -
Influence of farm diversity on nitrogen and greenhouse gas emission sources from key European dairy cattle systems: A step towards emission mitigation and nutrient circularity
(Agricultural Systems, 2024)European dairy cattle production systems (DPS) are facing multiple challenges that threaten their social, economic, and environmental sustainability. In this context, it is crucial to implement options to promote the ... -
Influence of methodological choices in farm sustainability assessments: A word of caution from a case study analysis of European dairy farms
(Environmental Science and Policy, 2024-06-01)In a context where sustainability assessments are increasingly popular, this perspective article discusses the influence of methodological choices on measurements of farm sustainability. We build the argumentation on the ...
