Climate change effects on groundwater recharge and temperatures in Swiss alluvial aquifers

Adrien Michel

Climate change will have both quantitative and qualitative effects on groundwater resources. These impacts differ for aquifers in solid and unconsolidated rock, in urban or rural locations, and in the principal processes of groundwater recharge. Having kno ...

Calibration of a lumped karst system model and application to the Qachqouch karst spring (Lebanon) under climate change conditions

Emmanuel Qays Dubois

Flow in complex karst aquifers is challenging to conceptualize and model, especially in poorly investigated areas, in semiarid climates, and under changing climatic conditions; however, it is necessary in order to implement long-term sustainable water mana ...

Daily entropy of dissolved oxygen reveals different energetic regimes and drivers among high‐mountain stream types

Tom Ian Battin, Mélanie Clémençon

High‐resolution time series of dissolved oxygen (DO) have revealed different ecosystem energetics regimes across various stream types. Ecosystem energetic regimes are relevant to better understand the transformation and retention of nutrients and carbon in ...

Effects of climate warming on Sphagnum photosynthesis in peatlands depend on peat moisture and species-specific anatomical traits

Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Constant Signarbieux

Climate change will influence plant photosynthesis by altering patterns of temperature and precipitation, including their variability and seasonality. Both effects may be important for peatlands as the carbon (C) sink potential of these ecosystems depends ...

Global and local anthropogenic effects on hydrodynamics of lakes

Carl Love Mikael Råman Vinnå

In many countries water quality is a major concern for drinking water management authorities. Freshwater is a limited resource and the demand for good-quality water from natural aquatic systems is therefore high. Additional stress arises from anthropogenic ...

Land management trumps the effects of climate change and elevated CO2 on grassland functioning

Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Aurélie Thébault

Grasslands cover similar to 30% of the Earth's terrestrial surface and provide many ecosystem services. Many grasslands are heavily managed to maximize these services for human benefit, but the outcome of management is anticipated to be increasingly inf ...

Exploring barriers to climate change adaptation in the Swiss tourism sector

Philippe Thalmann, Cecilia Matasci

Increasingly, various sectors are affected by climate change and need to find ways to adapt with much public guidance and support. This paper examines the adaptation process of a sector that started it some time ago - Swiss Alpine tourism. It identifies ba ...

Past and future landscape dynamics in pasture-woodlands of the Swiss Jura Mountains under climate change

Alexandre Buttler, François Gillet, Thomas Spiegelberger, Joël Chételat, Alexander Ludwig Johannes Peringer

Silvopastoral systems are traditional components of the landscape in the Swiss Jura Mountains, and are promising approaches for the sustainable management of mountain areas worldwide. Due to complex vegetation dynamics, pasture-woodlands are very vulnerabl ...

Used planet: A global history

Jed Oliver Kaplan

Human use of land has transformed ecosystem pattern and process across most of the terrestrial biosphere, a global change often described as historically recent and potentially catastrophic for both humanity and the biosphere. Interdisciplinary paleoecolog ...
