Update of the Köppen-Geiger climate classification for EFSA PLH risk assessment. [PDF]
Abstract The Köppen–Geiger climate classification is widely used for characterising global climatic conditions. At EFSA, in the context of Plant Health Risk Assessment, the Köppen–Geiger system is used as a preliminary step to delineate zones of potential pest establishment across EU territories, providing a first screening prior to more detailed ...

Assessing the Physical Habitat Condition of Navigable Canals and Rivers in England
ABSTRACT Monitoring can identify environmental problems and help to set environmental objectives, design management interventions, and assess environmental responses. The need to monitor rivers for such purposes has long been emphasized, but canals have received less attention.

The Los Angeles River: a monument to the rationalization of nature and one of the more visible productions of social‐natural urban river space. Photo by Matt Gush. ABSTRACT Despite the close connection between urbanization and the ecology of rivers, the co‐constitution of rivers and urban space remains undertheorized.

Abstract Less than 6% of US farmlands are cover cropped, an on‐farm management practice with potential to sequester carbon and provide environmental co‐benefits (e.g., improved soil health and water quality). Despite their promise as a nature‐based climate solution that can enhance soil carbon storage, cover crops remain underutilized, in part due to ...

The Global Declining Effect of Population Aging on Water Use
Abstract Little has been known whether intensified global population aging has an independent effect on water use (which corresponds to the global water security). We here use panel analysis to quantitatively find out an obvious declining effect of global population aging (measured by proportion of aged population) on water use (measured by total water

High‐Resolution Modeling of Future Urban Area and Population Exposure to Floods and Landslides
Abstract Future population growth is expected to concentrate in urban agglomerations that overlap with various natural hazard zones. However, quantifying the resulting risks remains challenging, as hazard areas tend to be bounded locally while population forecasts are produced at much coarser scales.
