global regionalized impacts of eutrophication on freshwater fish biodiversity
Freshwater biodiversity has been threatened by eutrophication due to excessive nutrients in the environment. Releasing the freshwater species from such pressures requires efforts from industry and manufacturers to avoid emissions to vulnerable and high-risk regions.

ecosystem services and alternative ways to express the value of biodiversity
Do sustainability values play a role in motivating people to act for biodiversity in successful projects and in successful leadership action? And how could these values be incorporated in current economic valuation methods?

Digging for data: the rise and fall of a Miocene mammal biodiversity hotspot in the Vallès-Penedès (Catalonia, Spain)
The Vallesian, 11.1-9 Ma, was a special time in the Vallès-Penedes basin near Barcelona, where a biodiversity hotspot existed. Europe had a subtropical climate, with rhinos, forest giraffes, lions, hyenas, flying squirrels and primates.

Remote sensing-based assessment of functional diversity for polar ecosystems
1: What is the relative importance of alfa and beta biodiversity in polar ecosystems, and how does intraspecific variation influence this? 2: How can we use remote sensing to determine functional biodiversity (within communities) in polar ecosystems? 3: Temporal and spatial scales of functional biodiversity:…

Satellite remote sensing of plant functional diversity
Biodiversity enables ecosystems to thrive through the synergy of functional differences among organisms. While human well-being strongly depends on biodiversity-driven ecosystem services, human actions are also at the root of current unprecedented biodiversity declines.

Minder vlees betekent meer land (en dat kunnen we gebruiken om het klimaat een handje te helpen)
Door de komst van alternatieven kunnen we de komende decenia radicaal minderen met vlees, zuivel en andere dierlijke producten. Dit zou enorme hoeveelheden land vrijmaken om schone energie te produceren en koolstof uit te atmosfeer te halen. Milieuwetenschappers Laura Scherer en Oscar Rueda schrijven…
