To bring to fruition the capability of nature-based solutions (NBS) in mitigating hydro-meteorological risks (HMRs) and facilitate their widespread uptake require a consolidated knowledge-base related monitoring methods, efficiency, functioning ecosystem services they provide. We attempt fill this knowledge gap by reviewing compiling existing scientific literature on including ground-based measurements (e.g. gauging stations, wireless sensor network) remote sensing observations from...
Abstract Attempts to estimate photosynthetic rate or gross primary productivity from remotely sensed absorbed solar radiation depend on knowledge of the light use efficiency (LUE). Early models assumed LUE be constant, but now most researchers try adjust it for variations in temperature and moisture stress. However, more exact methods are required. Hyperspectral remote sensing offers possibility changes xanthophyll cycle, which is closely coupled photosynthesis. Several studies have shown...
Abstract It is well established that Africa particularly exposed to climate extremes including heat waves, droughts, and intense rainfall events. How the co‐occurrence of these events however virtually unknown. This study provides first analysis projected changes in five such compound Africa, under a low (RCP2.6) high (RCP8.5) emissions scenario. These are combined with population projections for (SSP1) (SSP3) growth scenario, order provide estimates number people may be at end 21st century....
Analyses of climate change vulnerability and risk have been steadily evolving, moved from an impact-focused towards a more risk-based approach. In the communities, relevance resilience adaptive capacity (AC) are increasingly emphasized. Another emerging analytical framework is idea assessing AC in terms Sustainable Livelihoods Approach (SLA), which studies welfare as function multiple forms assets ('capital') that systems agents may utilize to both recover well increase future. We assess new...
The readily prepared di-Schiff base of pyridine-2-aldehyde and ethane-1,2-diamine 1 reacts with silver(I) tetrafluoroborate to form by self-assembly the double-stranded D2-helicate (±)-[Ag212](BF4)2; corresponding Schiff (1R,2R)-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine [(R,R)-2] nitrate produce homochiral single-strandedC2-coordination polymer M-{[Ag{(R,R)-2}]NO3·2H2O}∞.
Nature-based solutions (NBS) are being deployed around the world in order to address hydrometeorological hazards, including flooding, droughts, landslides and many others. The term refers techniques inspired, supported copied from nature, avoiding large constructions other harmful interventions. In this work development evaluation of an NBS applied Spercheios river basin Central Greece is presented. susceptible heavy rainfall bank overflow, therefore intervention selected a natural water...
Three configurationally homogeneous diastereomers of the linear hexa(tertiary phosphine) Ph(2)PCH(2)CH(2)P(Ph)CH(2)CH(2)P(Ph)CH(2)CH(2)P(Ph)CH(2)CH(2)P(Ph)CH(2)CH(2)PPh(2) (hexaphos) have been isolated in enantiomerically pure form, namely (R,S,S,R)-, (R,S,S,S)-, and (S,S,S,S)-hexaphos. The strongly helicating (R,S,S,R)-(-) form ligand combines with copper(I) ions to generate by stereoselective self-assembly P enantiomer a parallel helicate type [Cu(3)(hexaphos)(2)](PF(6))(3), which has...
The use of nature-based solutions (NbS) to address the risks posed by hydro-meteorological hazards have not yet become part mainstream policy response, and one main reasons cited for this, is lack evidence that they can effectively reduce disaster risk. This paper addresses this issue, providing model-based from five European case studies which demonstrate effectiveness different NbS in reducing magnitude hazard thus risk, present-day possible future climates. In OAL-Austria, a deep-seated...
Background and Aims Metabolomic screening studies normally contain thousands of samples with each individual sample being thoroughly analysed for observed differences in multiple compounds. A comparative screen is often employed to narrow down the search field before undertaking an intensive quantitative search. This study optimised parameters two solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fibres recently reported be optimum extraction aroma compounds from a white wine create validated method fibre...
