Motivated by the increasing importance of today’s environmental issues as well as by the increasing concerns related to energy use, the study is intended to perform an energy intensity decomposition in order to analyze the effects of structural and technical changes on the energy patterns and in specific on the energy intensity of ten major developing countries in Asia and in Latin America. The ma

Transpiration drives up to 40 % of terrestrial precipitation, with forests playing a critical role. This study combines long-term sap flow measurements and surface-based cloud observations to examine how different clouds affect tree transpiration across boreal and temperate European forests. Under specific cloudy conditions, sap flow can exceed clear-sky levels, reflecting distinct radiation effec

The mountain front recharge (MFR) process significantly influences the movement of water and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in alpine catchments. However, no existing watershed models can adequately simulate this process, hindering accurate quantification of streamflow and DOC dynamics. To address this gap, this study explicitly incorporated the MFR process into a watershed-scale integrated water–

This paper examines how expanding the legal definition of sexual assault affects fertility and sexual behavior, using a panel of European countries. I find that switching to tacit consent-based legislation reduces fertility by about 4% relative to the mean. This effect is driven by a decrease in couple formation and an increase in abortion rates. Supporting evidence is consistent with a behavioral

Canopy decline is increasingly prevalent in high-elevation snow gum (Eucalyptus pauciflora) forests across the Australian Alps. This phenomenon, known as snow gum dieback, is associated with infestations by the wood-boring beetle, Phoracantha mastersi. The larvae of this beetle create feeding galleries in the tree trunk, leading to the exudation of kino, a tannin-rich resin produced as a defense r

Northwest China's arid climate and fragile ecosystems are becoming wetter and greener. However, the rapid expansion of photovoltaic (PV) infrastructure in this region alters land-atmosphere interactions, with potential consequences for local climate and water resources. Here, we use a combined climate and dynamic vegetation modeling approach to assess the effects of hypothetical PV deployment acro

Agroforestry systems – combining trees with crops and/or livestock – are increasingly promoted as sustainable and climate-resilient land-use strategies. Despite their widespread presence in the Sahel, experimental data on their potential as carbon sinks are scarce. This study presents a full-year, high-frequency dataset of CO2 fluxes in a Sahelian agro-silvo-pastoral parkland dominated by Faidherb

Under sustained global warming, Arctic climate is projected to become more responsive to changes in North Pacific meridional heat transport as a result of teleconnections between low and high latitudes, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we reconstruct subarctic humidity changes over the past 400 kyr to investigate the role of low-to-high latitude interactions in regulat

Elevated air temperature and atmospheric vapor pressure deficit (VPD) are key drivers of plant physiological and ecological processes. However, their relative impacts on vegetation productivity remain difficult to isolate due to the strong coupling between them. This coupling complicates efforts to disentangle independent effects, particularly under compound drought conditions at regional or globa

Shallow lakes worldwide face escalating pressures from eutrophication and climate change, yet comprehensive monitoring of Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) spatiotemporal dynamics remains challenging due to the high costs and logistical constraints of traditional sampling approaches across large, heterogeneous water bodies. Lake Balaton, a large shallow lake system (80 km long, 7 km wide, 3.7 m mean depth) in

Understanding greenhouse gas fluxes in semi-arid ecosystems is critical for improving our understanding of biogeochemical cycles, particularly in underrepresented regions like the African Sahel. In these landscapes, greenhouse gas exchange arises from ground, trees, and water ponds, and is further shaped by environmental conditions and grazing. The carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide fluxes

Litter decomposition is a source of gaseous products, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to the atmosphere. The quantity and the chemical composition of the VOC blends released from litter vary between plant species and depend on environmental factors and litter microbial communities. Here, we assessed VOC release from decomposing litter in a 3-year incubation conducted in a climate manip

Borell101101b_Ny101214 LTHs 6:e Pedagogiska Inspirationskonferens, 15 december 2010 Abstract— När svarsfrekvensen på en kursvärdering är låg väcks frågan vad de som inte svarade tyckte. Om det finns upplevelseskillnader mellan de som fyller i kursvärderingen och de som inte gör det verkar det sannolikt att det även finns skillnader mellan de som fyller i kursvärderingen direkt när den skickas ut o
