Multivariate space-time modelling of multiple air pollutants and their health effects accounting for exposure uncertainty [PDF]
, 2018 The long-term health effects of air pollution are often estimated using a spatio-temporal ecological areal unit study, but this design leads to the following statistical challenges: (1) how to estimate spatially representative pollution concentrations ...

Climatic modulation of recent trends in ocean acidification in the California Current System
Environmental Research Letters, 2016 We reconstruct the evolution of ocean acidification in the California Current System (CalCS) from 1979 through 2012 using hindcast simulations with an eddy-resolving ocean biogeochemical model forced with observation-based variations of wind and fluxes ...

Effects of eutrophication on sedimentary organic carbon cycling in five temperate lakes [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2019 Even though human-induced eutrophication has severely impacted temperate lake ecosystems over the last centuries, the effects on total organic carbon (TOC) burial and mineralization are not well understood.
