Bridging Social Innovation with Forest and Landscape Restoration
Environmental Policy and Governance, Volume 32, Issue 6, Page 520-531, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Mitigating climate change, preventing mass species extinctions, improving rural livelihoods, and disaster risk reduction are among today's most urgent challenges. To meet these challenges, a large number of social actors need to agree to engage and act collectively on Forest and Landscape Restoration (FLR), ensuring its dual goal of restoring ...

Fertilizer usage and cadmium in soils, crops and food [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Phosphate fertilizers were first implicated by Schroeder and Balassa in 1963 for increasing the Cd concentration in cultivated soils and crops. This suggestion has become a part of the accepted paradigm on soil toxicity. Consequently, stringent fertilizer control programs to monitor Cd have been launched. Attempts to link Cd toxicity and fertilizers to

Potential Global Sequestration of Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide by Semi-Arid Forestation [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Carbon sequestration was studied in the planted Israeli Yatir forest, a 28 ${km}^2$ Aleppo pine forest growing at the semi-arid timberline (with no irrigation or fertilization). The organic carbon sequestration rate (above and below ground) was measured as 550 gram $CO_2 {m}^{-2} {yr}^{-1}$, by Eddy Covariance flux and Carbon Stock counting methods ...

Identity and difference: how topology helps to understand quantum indiscernability [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This contribution, to be published in Imagine Math 8 to celebrate Michele Emmer's 75th birthday, can be seen as the second part of my previous considerations on the relationships between topology and physics (Mouchet, 2018). Nevertheless, the present work can be read independently.
