Delivering resilience for people and nature in Anthropocene landscapes
People and NatureThe concept of resilience is widespread in strategies for enhancing biodiversity and ecosystem services, but, in practice, resilience means different things in different socio‐ecological and policy contexts and to different people.

In‐Lake GHG Production Constrained by Lake DOM Mass Balance in a Boreal Catchment
Water Resources ResearchThe processing of organic carbon in surface waters represents a critical component of the carbon (C) cycle in boreal landscapes and is closely linked to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4).

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.

Governing in the Anthropocene: What Future Systems Thinking in Practice? [PDF]
, 2016 The revealing and concealing features of the metaphor ‘earth as Anthropocene’ are explored in an inquiry that asks: In the Anthropocene what possible futures emerge for systems thinking in practice? Framing choice, so important yet so poorly realised, is

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.

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022 Boreal lakes are the most abundant lakes on Earth. Changes in acid rain deposition, climate, and catchment land use have increased lateral fluxes of terrestrial dissolved organic matter (DOM), resulting in a widespread browning of boreal freshwaters ...
