Mapping the “Supply–Demand–Flow” of Ecosystem Services for Ecosystem Management in China

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a “supply–demand–flow” framework clarifies how ecosystem services move between regions by distinguishing potential and actual supply and demand. Using integrated biophysical–socioeconomic modeling, nine services in China were mapped.

Comparing global models of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP): analysis of the seasonal atmospheric CO₂ signal [PDF]

Global Change Biology, 1999
SummaryEight terrestrial biospheric models (TBMs) calculating the monthly distributions of both net primary productivity (NPP) and soil heterotrophic respiration (RH) in the Potsdam NPP Model Intercomparison workshop are used to simulate seasonal patterns of atmospheric CO2 concentration.

Coupling Water Purification and Carbon Sequestration at Various Spatial Scales From Supply and Demand Perspective

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Balancing ecosystem‐service supply and demand is central to understanding both the natural and social dimensions of ecosystem services and to enhancing human well‐beings. Concurrently, collaborative efforts are underway to improve multiple ecosystem services, including the promotion of carbon neutrality and water purification (WP) within basin

Global urban expansion offsets climate-driven increases in terrestrial net primary productivity

Nature Communications, 2019
Robust estimates of either urban expansion worldwide or the effects of such phenomenon on terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP) are lacking. Here the authors used the new dataset of global land use to show that the global urban areas expanded ...

Water use efficiency of China\u27s terrestrial ecosystems and responses to drought [PDF]

, 2015
Water use efficiency (WUE) measures the trade-off between carbon gain and water loss of terrestrial ecosystems, and better understanding its dynamics and controlling factors is essential for predicting ecosystem responses to climate change.

A Country That Never Sleeps? A Web Scrapping Analysis of the 24‐h Economy Policy in Ghana

Thunderbird International Business Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In light of revitalizing Ghana's economic landscape through sustainable job creation underpinned by 24‐h operations across all key sectors, the National Democratic Congress proposed the ‘24‐h economy’ policy proposal. This study employs the web‐scraping technique through text mining and python codes to analyse 1820 comments from Facebook, X ...

Decreasing water availability reduces productivity in Swiss forests along an altitudinal gradient

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Forests are one of the most important terrestrial carbon sinks, but are increasingly under pressure due to drought, heat and the occurrence of extreme events. There are opposing longer term trends for European forest growth reported, and severe drought and disturbance ...
