The forest-hydrology-poverty nexus in Central America : An heuristic analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
A"forest-hydrology-poverty nexus"hypothesis asserts that deforestation in poor upland areas simultaneously threatens biodiversity and increases the incidence of flooding, sedimentation, and other damaging hydrological processes.

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

Co-located ecological data for exploring top- and subsoil carbon dynamics across grassland-woodland contrasts

open access: yesScientific Data
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a soil health indicator and understanding dynamics changing SOC stocks will help achieving net zero goals. Here we present four datasets featuring 11,750 data points covering co-located aboveground and below-ground metrics ...

Investigating the effects of large wood and forest management on flood risk and flood hydrology

open access: yes, 2013
The changes to catchment scale flood risk following river restoration works, including the addition of large wood logjams to the channel, are poorly quantified in the literature.

Insights into Red Deer Ecology during the Late Epigravettian: New isotopic evidence from Riparo Tagliente (Italian Prealps)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Late Glacial marked a shift from the cold conditions of Greenland Stadial‐2 (GS‐2) to the warmer phases of Greenland Interstadial‐1 (GI‐1), enabling the reoccupation of Alpine regions by Late Palaeolithic hunter‐gatherers.

Late Quaternary climatic variability in the Eastern Mediterranean recorded in Hermes Cave, Corinth Rift, Greece

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Greek peninsula lies at the intersection of major atmospheric circulation systems, making it a key location for reconstructing past climate variability in the Eastern Mediterranean. In this study, we present a new high‐resolution multi‐proxy speleothem record from Hermes Cave, located on the shoulder of the Corinth Rift in southern Greece.

Monitoring of forest ecosystems in Ireland : FOREM 9 project : final report

open access: yes, 2004
Intensive monitoring has been carried out under EC Regulation 3528/86 (project number 8860 IR 001.0) at Ballyhooly, Co. Cork since 1988. In 1991, three new plots (Roundwood, Cloosh and Brackloon) were established (9060IR0030) to give a more ...

Forest Cover and Locality Regulate Response of Watershed Discharge to Rainfall Variability in Caribbean Region

open access: yes
Reforestation often occurs when the economy shifts from agriculture to industry and services such as tourism. However, there is a lack of coherent knowledge and investigation about the impact of reforestation in the tropics on hydrological variability as

The Impact of Climate Change upon the Snowmelt Hydrology of an Upland UK Catchment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Snowmelt hydrology is important in the winter flow regime of upland catchments in the UK as it can attenuate the extremes of the river flow hydrograph.
