The status and future of essential geodiversity variables
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering SciencesRapid environmental change, natural resource overconsumption and increasing concerns about ecological sustainability have led to the development of ‘Essential Variables' (EVs). EVs are harmonized data products to inform policy and to enable effective management of natural resources by monitoring global changes.

Understanding Instrumental Variables in Models with Essential Heterogeneity [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2006 Abstract This paper examines the properties of instrumental variables (IV) applied to models with essential heterogeneity, that is, models where responses to interventions are heterogeneous and agents adopt treatments (participate in programs) with at least partial knowledge of their idiosyncratic response.

The essentiality of Essential Biodiversity Variables: implementation in nature conservation policies
, 2022 Biological diversity on Earth is in decline. The current decline in biodiversity has been called (the onset of) the sixth mass extinction. Land cover change causes deforestation and loss of other ecosystems, such as wetlands, resulting in a lossof crucial habitats for various species. The importance of biodiversity for life on Earth, valued for its own
