Reforestation in a high‐CO2 world—Higher mitigation potential than expected, lower adaptation potential than hoped for

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
We assess the potential and possible consequences for the global climate of a strong reforestation scenario for this century. We perform model experiments using the Max Planck Institute Earth System Model (MPI‐ESM), forced by fossil‐fuel CO2 emissions ...

Nature‐Positive Materials Engineering: Carbon Electrodes from Satoyama Biomass

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Nature‐positive materials engineering can link satoyama forest stewardship with the design of carbon electrodes for batteries, supercapacitors, and electrocatalysis. By turning underused firewood and charcoal resources into functional carbons, this approach reduces mining footprints while supporting biodiversity, landscape resilience, and regional ...

Nests in trees are as good as or better than cliffs for two formerly persecuted, primarily cliff nesting eagles in Spain: a cautionary tale in defining the habitat of range‐restricted or threatened species

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In the late‐20th century, golden and Bonelli's eagles suffered population declines on the Iberian Peninsula, partly due to human persecution. Habitat assessments – especially for Bonelli's eagles – always found or assumed strong associations with cliffs that provided nesting sites.

Both forest cover and land management practices explain variation in recovering pine marten densities

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Robust monitoring of wildlife populations to guide interventions is fundamental to conservation and wildlife management. Understanding how landscape characteristics are influencing predator population dynamics is often vital to inform recovery strategies, management, and policy. The pine marten Martes martes is recovering in the UK; however, population

Adaptive harvesting of two trophic levels stabilises predator–prey dynamics. Simulations with Eurasian lynx and European roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Europe has seen the recovery of many species of wild herbivores, which are now widespread across much of the continent. In addition, large carnivores are also recolonising many European countries. Most ungulates are managed through hunting, but natural predation can also have a significant influence in many areas.

Spatiotemporal dynamics and machine learning‐based prediction of above‐ground biomass in the Indus Delta mangroves

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mangrove forests are important blue carbon ecosystems, yet long‐term above‐ground biomass (AGB) dynamics in arid deltaic systems remain poorly understood. Here, we integrated field‐derived AGB data with multisource remote sensing and machine learning models (random ...

Necessity of clear concepts and convergence of discourse for climate-smart agriculture (Costa Rica) [PDF]

, 2015
Since the 80's, many environmentalist discourses were elaborated at the international level, either in the form of technical topics or in the form of vaster concepts like “sustainable development”. Studying the applications and effects at the local level

Carbon Farming Optimisation With Market Premiums for Biodiversity Co‐Benefits Under Climate Change Socio‐Economic Pathway Scenarios

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Achieving global climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation and restoration goals requires innovative solutions that balance carbon sequestration with biodiversity conservation. Payments for ecosystem services markets often treat carbon sequestration and biodiversity separately, but integrating biodiversity as a co‐benefit within ...
