Lake drying and livelihood dynamics in Lake Chad: Unravelling the mechanisms, contexts and responses
Ambio - Tập 45 - Trang 781-795 - 2016
This article examines lake drying and livelihood dynamics in the context of multiple stressors through a case study of the “Small Lake Chad” in the Republic of Chad. Livelihoods research in regions experiencing persistent lake water fluctuations has largely focused on the well-being and security of lakeshore dwellers. Little is known about the mechanisms through which lake drying shapes livelihood...... hiện toàn bộ
Shark recreational fisheries: Status, challenges, and research needs
Ambio - - 2016
For centuries, the primary manner in which humans have interacted with sharks has been fishing. A combination of their slow-growing nature and high use-values have resulted in population declines for many species around the world, and to date the vast majority of fisheries-related work on sharks has focused on the commercial sector. Shark recreational fishing remains an overlooked area of research...... hiện toàn bộ
Oil spill response capabilities and technologies for ice-covered Arctic marine waters: A review of recent developments and established practices
Ambio - Tập 46 - Trang 423-441 - 2017
Renewed political and commercial interest in the resources of the Arctic, the reduction in the extent and thickness of sea ice, and the recent failings that led to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, have prompted industry and its regulatory agencies, governments, local communities and NGOs to look at all aspects of Arctic oil spill countermeasures with fresh eyes. This paper provides an overview of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Between uncertainty and hope: Young leaders as agents of change in sustainable small-scale fisheries
Ambio - Tập 51 - Trang 1287-1301 - 2021
The path to sustainable small-scale fisheries (SSF) is based on multiple learning processes that must transcend generational changes. To understand young leaders from communities with sustainable SSF management practices in Mexico, we used in-depth interviews to identify their shared motivations and perceptions for accepting their fishing heritage. These possible future decision-makers act as agen...... hiện toàn bộ
Balancing the trade-offs between land productivity, labor productivity and labor intensity
Ambio - Tập 52 Số 10 - Trang 1618-1634 - 2023
Agricultural intensification, through increased yields, and raising incomes, through enhanced labor productivity, are two dimensions prioritized for sustainable agricultural development. Prioritizing these two outcomes leaves labor intensity as a hidden adjustment variable. Yet, when agriculture is mainstay and the prospects of labor absorption in other sectors are scarce, the density of agricultu...... hiện toàn bộ
Revaluating forest drought experiments according to future precipitation patterns, ecosystem carbon and decomposition rate responses: A meta-analysis
Ambio - Tập 51 - Trang 1227-1238 - 2021
Moisture availability is a strong determinant of decomposition rates in forests worldwide. Climate models suggest that many terrestrial ecosystems are at risk from future droughts, suggesting moisture limiting conditions will develop across a range of forests worldwide. The impacts of increasing drought conditions on forest carbon (C) fluxes due to shifts in organic matter decay rates may be poorl...... hiện toàn bộ
Climate Warming and the Recent Treeline Shift in the European Alps: The Role of Geomorphological Factors in High-Altitude Sites
Ambio - Tập 40 - Trang 264-273 - 2010
Global warming and the stronger regional temperature trends recently recorded over the European Alps have triggered several biological and physical dynamics in high-altitude environments. We defined the present treeline altitude in three valleys of a region in the western Italian Alps and reconstructed the past treeline position for the last three centuries in a nearly undisturbed site by means of...... hiện toàn bộ
Slow Money for Soft Energy: Lessons for Energy Finance from the Slow Money Movement
Ambio - Tập 41 - Trang 900-903 - 2012
Root Causes and Impacts of Severe Accidents at Large Nuclear Power Plants
Ambio - Tập 42 - Trang 267-284 - 2013
The root causes and impacts of three severe accidents at large civilian nuclear power plants are reviewed: the Three Mile Island accident in 1979, the Chernobyl accident in 1986, and the Fukushima Daiichi accident in 2011. Impacts include health effects, evacuation of contaminated areas as well as cost estimates and impacts on energy policies and nuclear safety work in various countries. It is con...... hiện toàn bộ
