A review of the combined effects of climate change and other local human stressors on the marine environment
(SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT, 2021)
Climate change (CC) is a key, global driver of change of marine ecosystems. At local and regional scales, other local human stressors (LS) can interact with CC and modify its effects on marine ecosystems. Understanding the ...
Evolutionary dynamics of higher-order interactions in social networks
(Nature Human Behaviour, 2021)
We live and cooperate in networks. However, links in networks only allow for pairwise interactions, thus making the framework suitable for dyadic games, but not for games that are played in larger groups. Here, we study ...
Protected areas to deliver biodiversity need management effectiveness and equity
(Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020)
It is widely recognized in science, policy, and practice that protected areas (PAs) that are equitably and effectively managed are essential for halting biodiversity loss. However, our understanding of the relationships ...
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 ...
39 hints to facilitate the use of semantics for data on agriculture and nutrition
(Data Science Journal, 2020)
In this paper, we report on the outputs and adoption of the Agrisemantics Working Group of the Research Data Alliance (RDA), consisting of a set of recommendations to facilitate the adoption of semantic technologies and ...
Quantifying regulating ecosystem services with increased tree densities on European Farmland
(Sustainability (switzerland), 2020)
Agroforestry systems have been compared to agricultural and forestry alternatives, providing a land-use solution for additional environmental benefits while maintaining similar levels of productivity. However, there is ...
Carbon-nitrogen interactions in European forests and semi-natural vegetation - Part 1: Fluxes and budgets of carbon, nitrogen and greenhouse gases from ecosystem monitoring and modelling
(Biogeosciences, 2020)
The impact of atmospheric reactive nitrogen (Nr) deposition on carbon (C) sequestration in soils and biomass of unfertilized, natural, semi-natural and forest ecosystems has been much debated. Many previous results of this ...
Homeostatic Response to Three Years of Experimental Warming Suggests High Intrinsic Natural Resistance in the Páramos to Warming in the Short Term
(Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021)
Páramos, tropical alpine ecosystems, host one of the world s most diverse alpine floras, account for the largest water reservoirs in the Andes, and some of the largest soil carbon pools worldwide. It is of global importance ...
Allometric biomass models for european beech and silver fir: Testing approaches to minimize the demand for site-specific biomass observations
(Forests, 2020)
In this paper, site-specific allometric biomass models were developed for European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) to estimate the aboveground biomass in Sinca virgin forest, Romania. Several ...
A multiple-uncertainty analysis framework for integrated assessment modelling of several sustainable development goals
(Elsevier, 2020)
This research introduces a two-level integration of climate-economy modelling and portfolio analysis, to simulate technological subsidisation with implications for multiple Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), across ...
