The ecosystem services (ES) framework was developed to articulate and measure the benefits humans receive from ecosystems. Cultural (CES), usually defined as intangible nonmaterial ecosystems provide, have been relatively neglected by researchers policy-makers compared provisioning, supporting, regulating services. Although valuing CES poses several conceptual methodological difficulties, it is of huge interest importance because linkages between cultural values, valuation methods,...
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology provides potential for very high spatial resolution (<25 cm) mapping of relatively large areas at a user-defined re-survey frequency. In riparian context, UAV mechanism managers to (a) quantify terrain and vegetation units (b) identify standing dead wood canopy mortality. this study paraglider was used survey 174 ha 6.8–21.8 cm ground resolution. Pixel-based object-oriented classification approaches were the scale single image channel mosaic....
This paper employs data from selected sample survey areas in the northern Fertile Crescent to demonstrate how initial urbanization developed along several pathways. The first, during Late Chalcolithic period, was within a dense pattern of rural settlement. There followed profound shift settlement that resulted formation large walled or ramparted sites ('citadel cities') associated with more dynamic phase exemplified by short cycles growth and collapse. By later third millennium BC,...
The promise that ecosystem service assessments will contribute to better decision-making is not yet proven. We analyse how knowledge on services actually used inform land and water management in 22 case studies covering different social-ecological systems European Latin American countries. None of the reported instrumental use a sense would have served as an impartial arbiter between policy options. Yet, most cases, there was some evidence conceptual learning result close interaction...
Understanding uncertainties in land cover projections is critical to investigating land-based climate mitigation policies, assessing the potential of adaptation strategies and quantifying impacts change on system. Here, we identify quantify global European over a diverse range model types scenarios, extending analysis beyond agro-economic models included previous comparisons. The results from 75 simulations 18 are analysed show large area projections, with highest variability occurring...
Addressing climate change vulnerability requires an understanding of both the level impacts and capacity exposed population to cope. This study developed a methodology for allowing users explore changes in ecosystem services as result climatic socio-economic changes. It focuses on Europe across multiple sectors by combining outputs regional integrated assessment (IA) model, CLIMSAVE IA Platform, with maps coping based five capitals approach. The presented enables stakeholder-derived futures...
The Paris Agreement established the 1.5 and 2 °C targets based on recognition "that this would significantly reduce risks impacts of climate change". We tested assertion by comparing at regional scale between low-end (< °C; RCP2.6) high-end (> 4 RCP8.5) change scenarios accounting for interactions across six sectors (agriculture, forestry, biodiversity, water, coasts urban) using an integrated assessment model. Results show that there are only minor differences in most impact indicators...
Future patterns of European ecosystem services provision are likely to vary significantly as a result climatic and socio-economic change the implementation adaptation strategies. However, there is little research in mapping future no integrated assessment approach map combined impacts these drivers.Map changing for different futures (a) identify role driving forces; (b) explore potential influence options.The CLIMSAVE platform used spatial (food, water timber provision, atmospheric...
Two independent axion searches have been carried out near a well-shielded radioactive $^{65}\mathrm{Zn}$ source (\ensuremath{\sim}15 kCi). One experiment used four NaI(Tl) scintillators to detect coincident photons generated in the decay a\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}. The second shielded 145-${\mathrm{cm}}^{3}$ low-background intrinsic-Ge detector single produced by ``Compton'' interactions with electrons and Primakoff conversion off Ge nuclei Pb shield. We...
Abstract This paper uses imagery captured by ultra-light and unmanned aerial vehicles (ULAVs) in combination with satellite remote sensing to explore vegetation development on braided reaches the Southern Eastern French Alps. Findings demonstrate that while asexual reproduction processes dominate, sexual through seed dissemination wind transport play a significant role during periods of low flow following large floods. progressive establishment leads general trend river corridor narrowing....

We give a complete phenomenological analysis of parity mixing in the hydrogen atom, showing connection between relativistic neutral-current interactions and nonrelativistic potentials. The matrix elements these potentials are evaluated for $n=2$ hydrogen, $2S\ensuremath{-}2P$ states is computed at each level crossings. A systematic discussion invariant decomposition $2S\ensuremath{-}2{S}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ microwave transitions given, providing catalogue possible experiments. One particular...
