GEOECOLOGY – UNITY OF GEOLOGICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL SCIENCES

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2020
This article reviews the theory of Geoecology as a modern science in the geological and geographical series. There are propositions that geography of underground spaces will arise in the future due to intensive human use of the geological space ...

Forest resources of nations in relation to human well-being.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
A universal turnaround has been detected in many countries of the World from shrinking to expanding forests. The forest area of western Europe expanded already in the 19th century. Such early trends of forest resources cannot be associated with the rapid

Road Development and the Geography of Hunting by an Amazonian Indigenous Group: Consequences for Wildlife Conservation

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Protected areas are essential for conservation of wildlife populations. However, in the tropics there are two important factors that may interact to threaten this objective: 1) road development associated with large-scale resource extraction near or ...

Assessing the carbon sink capacity of coastal mariculture shellfish resources in China from 1981–2020

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The ocean has considerable potential to function as a carbon sink, absorbing anthropogenic CO2 and buffering the effects of climate change. How the culture of shellfish can be used to increase the ocean carbon sink warrants evaluation.

Latitudinal limits to the predicted increase of the peatland carbon sink with warming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The carbon sink potential of peatlands depends on the balance of carbon uptake by plants and microbial decomposition. The rates of both these processes will increase with warming but it remains unclear which will dominate the global peatland response ...

The dominant role of semi-arid ecosystems in the trend and variability of the land CO2 sink [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The growth rate of atmospheric carbondioxide(CO2) concentrations since industrialization is characterized by large interannual variability, mostly resulting from variability in CO 2 uptake by terrestrial ecosystems (typically termed carbon sink ...

Temporal and spatial variation in the efficiency of a Floc & Sink technique for controlling cyanobacterial blooms in a tropical reservoir

open access: yes, 2022
One of the main symptoms of eutrophication is the proliferation of phytoplankton biomass, including nuisance cyanobacteria. Reduction of the external nutrient load is essential to control eutrophication, and in-lake interventions are suggested for ...
