Safeguards for enhancing ecological compensation in Sweden

open access: yesLand Use Policy, 2017
Ecological compensation (EC) is being explored as a policy instrument for the European Union’s ‘No Net Loss of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services’ initiative. EC is commonly associated with the Polluter-Pays Principle, but we propose the Developer-Pays Principle as a more comprehensive principle.

Perturbations in growth trajectory due to early diet affect age-related deterioration in performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Fluctuations in early developmental conditions can cause changes in growth trajectories that subsequently affect the adult phenotype. Here, we investigated whether compensatory growth has long-term consequences for patterns of senescence.
