Ports’ criticality in international trade and global supply-chains
Nature Communications, 2022 A new study presents a new global modeling framework to explore the links between ports, maritime transport and global supply-chains, and identifies critical links and dependencies between 1300 ports and the economies that depend on them.

Technical Note: Cost-efficient approaches to measure carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes and concentrations in terrestrial and aquatic environments using mini loggers [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2015 Fluxes of CO2 are important for our understanding of the global carbon cycle and greenhouse gas balances. Several significant CO2 fluxes in nature may still be unknown as illustrated by recent findings of high CO2 emissions from aquatic environments ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Methane (CH4) is an important component of the carbon (C) cycling in lakes. CH4 production enables carbon in sediments to be either reintroduced to the food web via CH4 oxidation or emitted as a greenhouse gas making lakes one of the largest natural ...

The influence of terracettes on the surface hydrology of steep-sloping and subalpine environments: some preliminary findings [PDF]
Geographica Helvetica, 2015 Alpine and mountain slopes represent important pathways that link high-altitude grazing areas to meadows and rangelands at lower elevations. Given the often acute gradients associated with such environments, they potentially represent highly efficient ...

Targeting climate adaptation to safeguard and advance the Sustainable Development Goals
Nature Communications, 2022 Without targeted climate adaptation, impacts of climate change threaten achievement of all 169 SDG targets. Fuldauer et al. provide an actionable framework to assess these impacts and help systematically align national adaptation plans with the SDGs.

Understanding Business Disruption and Economic Losses Due to Electricity Failures and Flooding
International Journal of Disaster Risk Science, 2019 Failure of critical national infrastructures can cause disruptions with widespread economic impacts. To analyze these economic impacts, we present an integrated modeling framework that combines: (1) geospatial information on infrastructure assets ...

BASS - Biodiversity Assessments at Small Scales [PDF]
Research Ideas and OutcomesMuch of the work developed on biodiversity dynamics due to climate change focuses on large scales. Yet, we know that small scale is critical to fully understand biodiversity change, particularly for plants and small or less mobile organisms which might ...
