Patterns and environmental drivers of root traits across hydrological gradients in old growth boreal forests

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Many key ecosystem functions are affected by plant roots and their traits. However, understanding of the patterns in, and drivers of, root traits lags far behind equivalent knowledge of above‐ground tissues, particularly in boreal old growth forests. We surveyed community‐level root traits across 11 old growth forests spanning a wide latitudinal range ...

The role of BECCS in Germany: a key to sustainable and permanent CO2 removal?

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications
BECCS (bioenergy with CO _2 capture and storage) combines CO _2 capture and storage with the use of bioenergy. This is a promising carbon dioxide removal method that can contribute to reaching national net-zero climate targets. In this study, we analyzed

Meeting global temperature targets—the role of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2013
In order to meet stringent temperature targets, active removal of CO _2 from the atmosphere may be required in the long run. Such negative emissions can be materialized when well-performing bioenergy systems are combined with carbon capture and storage ...

Carbon dioxide removal to combat climate change? An expert survey on perception and support

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications, 2023
The most recent IPCC report considers Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) as an unavoidable climate change mitigation measure, although controversial discussions about CDR have taken place in the past.

The Role of BECCS in Achieving Climate Neutrality in the European Union

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The achievement of climate neutrality in the European Union by 2050 will not be possible solely through a reduction in fossil fuels and the development of energy generation from renewable sources.

Niche‐tracking as a collecting method: Habitat‐targeted search strategies for taxon‐focused botany

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity science depends on more than collecting plants—it depends on how we search for them. Although GPS and digital maps have transformed fieldwork, they can also encourage repeated visits to the same easy‐to‐access sites, leaving other habitats and populations unknown to science.

Bioresources and bioproducts with carbon capture and storage: a firm energy option for carbon neutrality

open access: yesJournal of Bioresources and Bioproducts
Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is the most promising option among various carbon dioxide removal technologies needed to cope with hard-to-abate emissions and limit global warming to below 1.5 or 2 °C above pre-industrial levels.

Expansion of the Brazilian Sugarcane Bioenergy System Promotes Greenhouse Emission Reductions and Sustainable Development Without Compromising Food Security

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing global demand for biofuels has raised concern about compromising food security. This study uses two independent economy‐wide models to evaluate the impact of expanding the Brazilian sugarcane bioenergy system on economic growth, social outcomes and food security.

A “Conveyor Belt” From International Standards to Domestic Regulation? Evidence From the International Political Economy of Net Zero Governance

open access: yesRegulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT When and how do international standards influence domestic policies? The literature identifies a range of ways international standards may relate to domestic regulations—including by exporting, substituting, supplanting, or bolstering national rules—creating theoretical ambiguity.
