The living infinite: Envisioning futures for transformed human-nature relationships on the high seas
Marine Policy, Volume 153, 2023, 105644, ISSN 0308-597X
We are at a critical crossroads for the future governance of the high seas. We used the Nature Futures Framework to explore desirable futures for the high seas. Creative endeavours of co-production encourage imagination to address challenges. Participatory processes are important tools in the science-policy interface. Stories and art can be powerful ways to overcome barriers.
The main idea of this work is: To provide a brief review of India's capability for the deployment of carbon capture, utilization, and storage technology on a large scale.
Increasing plant productivity resilience to drought plays an important role in ecosystem services, and while soil organic matter (SOM) promotes plant growth, its role in mitigating aboveground biomass (AGB) loss as a result of drought in alpine grasslands is unclear. This study by Zhao et al., 2023 examined 209 alpine grassland sites on the Tibetan Plateau and revealed that AGB decreases with increasing aridity (above 0.37), and a stronger positive relationship between AGB and SOM is observed in more arid conditions, suggesting the significance of soil carbon sequestration strategies for biomass production and climate change mitigation in arid areas.
This article supports SDG # 13 by calculating the share of climate damages that fossil fuel companies owe the world.
This article advances SDG # 13 by quantifying the extent - and rigor - of existing regulation and makes recommendations for future policies for addressing the issue of Methane emissions.
Selective copepod grazing and water mass origin impacted spring bloom composition. Diatom bloom enhanced zooplankton recruitment and deep carbon export. Spring bloom composition impacted summer plankton community. Mixo- and heterotrophic protists dominated the nutrient-poor summer months. Copepod grazers controlled the summer protist community.
This study proposes a deep learning model based on a convolutional neural network, which can effectively fuse atmospheric information (wind field) and station water level information and can effectively forecast the station water level and also have a good response to the anomalous water level increase brought by storm surge.
This One Earth Primer article explains the current understanding of how social norms can modulate more sustainable behaviors. The implications are relevant for progress on many of the SDGs, especially 11 (sustainable communities) and 13 (climate action).
This One Earth Perspective Article lays out a research agenda for better understanding what motivates adolescent engagement in sustainability, such as climate action (SDG 13) and other efforts towards sustainable communities (SDG 11).
This article, relating to SDGs 7 and 13, details Europe's race to maintain its position as a leader in renewable energy as global green wars intensify. Although Europe is investing heavily in new green technologies, they face significant challenges including increasing competition from countries like China and the US, as well as political and economic challenges.
