Methodology for the Life Cycle Assessment of Clay Masonry from Energy and Water Consumption

Considering the clay masonry production, energy and water’s resources consumption has a high relevance, mainly at raw extraction materials, and transformation phases, highlighting the environmental impacts ensued by these types of activities. Life Cycle As ...

Modelling the potential of Natural Flood Management practices in an upland peatland catchment with the distributed TOPMODEL

Hélène Amélie Madeleine Boisgontier

In order to reduce flood risk, there is a growing interest in more nature-based solutions, such as Natural Flood Management (NFM), rather than hard-engineering ones. To help build the evidence towards these solutions, we analysed the influence of different ...

Pilot studies on optimizing land use, building density and solar electricity generation in dense urban settings

François Maréchal, Shanshan Hsieh, Arno Schlueter

Previous studies have identified links between the urban form and the performance of urban energy systems. Land use and density are two important aspects of urban planning and design. This paper studies the relationship between these aspects and the perfor ...

Cultural ecosystem services provision in response to urbanization in Cameroon

Jérôme Chenal, Armel Firmin Kemajou Mbianda, Rémi Jaligot

In Africa, cities are unable to accommodate population growth within their current administrative limits, putting pressure on ecosystem services (ES) in peripheral areas. Existing ES related studies in the region were conducted in East and South Africa, an ...

Quantifying the effects of land use and climate on Holocene vegetation in Europe

Jed Oliver Kaplan

Early agriculture can be detected in palaeovegetation records, but quantification of the relative importance of climate and land use in influencing regional vegetation composition since the onset of agriculture is a topic that is rarely addressed. We prese ...

Persistence of butterfly populations in fragmented habitats along urban density gradients: motility helps

Stéphane Joost, Estelle Rochat, Ivo Widmer

In a simulation study of genotypes conducted over 100 generations for more than 1600 butterfly’s individuals, we evaluate how the increase of anthropogenic fragmentation and reduction of habitat size along urbanisation gradients (from 7% to 59% of impervio ...

Evaporation from cultivated and semi-wild Sudanian Savanna in west Africa

Marc Parlange, Natalie Claire Ceperley, Theophile Mande, Nicolaas Cornelis van de Giesen

Rain-fed farming is the primary livelihood of semi-arid west Africa. Changes in land cover have the potential to affect precipitation, the critical resource for production. Turbulent flux measurements from two eddy-covariance towers and additional observat ...

Integrating geo-biodiversity features in the analysis of landscape patterns

Alexandre Buttler, Alexander Ludwig Johannes Peringer, Ioana Stoicescu

Spatial patterns are deeply linked to ecological processes and this relationship lies at the core of landscape ecology. In turn, landscape patterns are influenced by physical, biological and anthropogenic factors. The aim of this study was to explore how s ...
