The 'South–North Dialogue Proposal' outlines an approach for an 'equitable' differentiation of post-2012 commitments. An analysis of the proposal shows that for the stringent stabilisation targets…

Decision-makers, societal groups and scientists have at various moments in time expressed their interest in renewable energy sources such as power from wind, sun and biomass-derived fuels. Recently…

In this study, we focus on bacterial reduction of N 2 O to N 2 and discuss the likeliness of N 2 O uptake in different systems, including soils and aquatic systems. Our results indicate that soils are…

The study shows stabilization as low as 450 ppm CO 2 -eq. to be technically feasible, even given relatively high baseline scenarios. To achieve these lower concentration levels, global emissions need…

Biodiversity is of crucial importance for ecosystem functioning and human well-being. Using quantitative projections of changes in land use and climate from the four Millennium Ecosystem Assessment…

Both newly fixed N and recycled N (e.g., manure) are processed by terrestrial ecosystems. A substantial portion of this recycled N is subsequently transferred to groundwater, wetlands, lakes, rivers…

In this paper we present the latest analysis of N 2 O and NO emission measurement data for agricultural soils which has been used in the update of the IPCC Guidelines for National Emission Inventories…

In the past 30 years world production of ruminant meat and milk has increased by about 40%, while the global area of grassland has increased by only 4%. This is because most of the increase in…
