A comprehensive quantification of global nitrous oxide sources and sinks.
Global human-induced emissions of nitrous oxide, which are dominated by nitrogen additions to croplands, increased by 30% over the past four decades to 7.3 (4.2-11.4) teragrams of nitrogen per year…
Developing multi-scale and integrative nature-people scenarios using the Nature Futures Framework
Nature is under pressure. Given current development trajectories, without substantial transformations, it is unlikely that we will achieve the prosperous future imagined in global sustainability…
Societal benefits of halving agricultural ammonia emissions in China far exceed the abatement costs
Mitigating agricultural ammonia (NH3) emissions in China is urgently needed to avoid further damage to human and ecosystem health. Effective and feasible mitigation strategies hinge on integrated…

Verhuisstromen van en naar de stad ontwikkelen zich als een dynamische, moeilijk voorspelbare dans. Wanneer is een verandering in verhuisstromen structureel en wanneer slechts tijdelijk? Deze vraag is…
Improving Climate Change Mitigation Analysis: A Framework for Examining Feasibility
Limiting global warming to 2°C or less compared with pre-industrial temperatures will require unprecedented rates of decarbonization globally. The scale and scope of transformational change required…
Particuliere verhuur vormt problematische oplossing voor structureel probleem
In dit artikel beschrijft het PBL het huidige conflict tussen particuliere verhuurders en starters op de woningmarkt. Lange tijd leek een toename van de particuliere verhuur gewenst om de woningmarkt…
Impact of methane and black carbon mitigation on forcing and temperature: a multi-model scenario analysis
The relatively short atmospheric lifetimes of methane (CH 4 ) and black carbon (BC) have focused attention on the potential for reducing anthropogenic climate change by reducing Short-Lived Climate…
Agricultural Diffuse Pollution and the EU Water Framework Directive
Progress has been made on improving Europe’s water quality. Nevertheless, there is much scepticism as to whether the goals of the European Water Framework Directive will be realised by 2027…
A new international scenario-based modelling study suggests that ambitious action can reverse the trend of terrestrial biodiversity loss resulting from habitat conversion. This requires an integrated…
The role of residential rooftop photovoltaic in long-term energy and climate scenarios
The use of solar photovoltaic has strongly increased in the last decade. A significant part of this growth comes from home owners installing rooftop photovoltaic. Despite this key role, most long-term…
