Linking Relationship of Ecosystem Service Supply and Demand Into Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ecosystem services (ES) play a crucial role in sustainable development. We systematically assessed the spatial and temporal dynamics of ecosystem service supply (ES‐s) and demand (ES‐d) in China from 1990 to 2020 by using a supply–demand matrix integrated with land use/cover data. The findings indicate that in 2020, grasslands accounted for 28.

Novel Distances for Dollo Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate distances on binary (presence/absence) data in the context of a Dollo process, where a trait can only arise once on a phylogenetic tree but may be lost many times.

Inundation of different river bank heights influences organic matter concentrations and zooplankton abundance

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Regulation and water extraction change flow regimes in lowland rivers, affecting ecosystem functions and wetting patterns of riverbanks. River connectivity to lateral environments is crucial for organic matter cycling and the life cycles of diapausing microinvertebrates. While extreme hydraulic periods (floods and cease‐flow) are well‐studied,

Biodegradable Polymer Coatings: Current State‐of‐the‐Art, Recent Advances, and Still Open Challenges

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
Classification of biodegradable coatings. Two examples of biodegradation curves referring to biodegradable polyurethane‐based and poly(ester amide)‐based coatings are also reported. ABSTRACT Polymer coatings represent both a key academic research topic and a viable and well‐established industry market.
