Streamlining the regionalization of economy-wide material flow accounts (EW-MFA): The case of swiss cantons

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Aristide Henri Roger Athanassiadis, Nicole Sophie Wiedmann

Current levels of resource use and pollution emissions are responsible for the trespassing of most planetary boundaries. As such, operational and contextual analysis is needed to provide mitigation strategies and policies. This article aims to streamline E ...

Towards a metabolic theory of catchments: scaling of water and carbon fluxes with size

Sara Bonetti, Francesca Bassani

Catchments are heterogeneous ecosystems involving several abiotic and biotic processes, where the mutual interactions among water, vegetation, and biogeochemical fluxes take place at different scales. Many biological processes in nature are characterized b ...

Promoting synergies for sustainability through peer-to-peer sharing: an analysis of drivers and barriers

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Ralph Hansmann

Peer-to-peer (P2P) sharing may foster sustainability synergistically by saving resources, reducing costs and promoting satisfaction of consumer needs and social connectivity. A survey of Swiss and Swedish consumers (N = 1522) was conducted to analyze drive ...

More from Less? Environmental Rebound Effects of City Size

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda

Global sustainability relies on our capacity of understanding and guiding urban systems and their metabolism adequately. It has been proposed that bigger and denser cities are more resource-efficient than smaller ones because they tend to demand less infra ...

Primary and Net Ecosystem Production in a Large Lake Diagnosed From High-Resolution Oxygen Measurements

Alfred Johny Wüest, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Bieito Fernandez Castro, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Shubham Krishna, Pascal Perolo

The rates of gross primary production (GPP), ecosystem respiration (R), and net ecosystem production (NEP) provide quantitative information about the cycling of carbon and energy in aquatic ecosystems. In lakes, metabolic rates are often diagnosed from die ...

Regimes of primary production and their drivers in Alpine streams

Tom Ian Battin, Amber Joy Ulseth, Marta Boix Canadell, Mélanie Clémençon

Primary production is a fundamental ecosystem process that influences nutrient and carbon cycling, and trophic structure in streams. The magnitude and timing of gross primary production (GPP) are typically controlled by hydrology, light, nutrient availa ...

The Metabolic Regimes at the Scale of an Entire Stream Network Unveiled Through Sensor Data and Machine Learning

Tom Ian Battin, Enrico Bertuzzo, Pier Luigi Segatto

Streams and rivers form dense networks that drain the terrestrial landscape and are relevant for biodiversity dynamics, ecosystem functioning, and transport and transformation of carbon. Yet, resolving in both space and time gross primary production (GPP), ...

Fiscal Policy, Relative Prices and Net Exports in a Currency Union

Christian Pröbsting

This paper studies the effects of fiscal policy on net exports, the terms of trade and expenditure switching. Using data on government spending and consumption taxes for twelve euro area countries over 1996 to 2018, it shows that fiscal austerity shocks im ...
