Translating area-based conservation pledges into efficient biodiversity protection outcomes
Communications Biology, 2021 Cunningham et al. comment on the U.K.’s commitment to protect 30% of land by 2030, by identifying priority landscapes for expansion of the current protected area network in the UK using 445 priority species ranges across the country, under two baseline ...

Reduced effective radiative forcing from cloud–aerosol interactions (ERFaci) with improved treatment of early aerosol growth in an Earth system model [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 Historically, aerosols of anthropogenic origin have offset some of the warming from increased atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations. The strength of this negative aerosol forcing, however, is highly uncertain – especially the part originating from ...

Cambridge Encyclopedia of Anthropology, 2019 ‘The Anthropocene’ is a term that is increasingly used to define a new planetary epoch: one in which humans have become the dominant force shaping Earth’s bio-geophysical composition and processes. Although it originated in the Earth Sciences, it has since been widely adopted across academia and the public sphere as a catch-all description for the ...

Drivers and variability of CO2:O2 saturation along a gradient from boreal to Arctic lakes
Scientific Reports, 2022 Lakes are significant players for the global climate since they sequester terrestrially derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and emit greenhouse gases like CO2 to the atmosphere.

Questioning the ‘Anthropos’ in the Anthropocene: Is the Anthropocene Anthropocentric? [PDF]
SHS Web of Conferences, 2020 The word ‘Anthropocene’ has been controversial scientific concept, to name a new geological epoch that situates ‘Anthropos’ or ‘Man’ as an actor changing geological structure, altering the Earth system, and also making in unpredictable planetary changes.

Phosphorus Availability Promotes Bacterial DOC-Mineralization, but Not Cumulative CO2-Production
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 The current trend of increasing input of terrestrially derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to boreal freshwater systems is causing increased levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) supersaturation and degassing.
