  1. 11. Traps and transformations : Exploring the potential of water system innovations in dryland sub-Saharan Africa

    Författare :Elin Enfors; Line Gordon; Christian Valentin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :smallholder farming; water system innovations; agricultural droughts; multi-functional landscapes; development trajectories; uncertainty; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; naturresurshushållning; Natural Resources Management;

    Sammanfattning : In semi-arid and dry sub-humid sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), high poverty levels and a heavy reliance on small-scale rainfed agriculture make rural livelihoods difficult. Upgrading current farming systems, in a way that safeguards productivity beyond field-scale, is urgent. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Linking Landscapes and Livelihoods : Ecosystem services as a lens in Sudano-Sahelian West Africa

    Författare :Hanna Sinare; Line Gordon; Anders Malmer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ecosystem services; landscapes; livelihoods; agroforestry; Sudano-Sahel; West Africa; Natural Resources Management; naturresurshushållning;

    Sammanfattning : Integrated landscape approaches are increasingly called for to reconcile multiple objectives from the perspectives of agriculture, forestry, poverty alleviation and biodiversity conservation. Sudano-Sahelian West Africa with low agricultural productivity and widespread poverty is a hotspot for these issues and has attracted international interest in interventions to improve livelihoods.

  4. 13. Developing strategies for improved economic performance and reduced climate impact of landfill mining in Europe

    Författare :John Laurence Esguerra; Joakim Krook; Niclas Svensson; Steven Van Passel; Anders Damgaard; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; waste management; landfill management; resource recovery; sustainability assessment; emerging concept;

    Sammanfattning : Landfill mining refers to the re-circulation of resources from the previously deposited wastes. It is an alternative approach for managing landfills that integrates resource recovery with site remediation. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Probing the Precipitationshed : A quantification of the biophysical dimensions of terrestrial moisture recycling

    Författare :Patrick W. Keys; Line Gordon; Steve Lyon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; moisture recycling; precipitation; evaporation; variability; ecosystem services; naturresurshushållning; Natural Resources Management;

    Sammanfattning : Terrestrial moisture recycling is the phenomena whereby water evaporates from the land surface, travels through the atmosphere, and fall as precipitation downwind. The interaction of societies with this branch of the hydrological cycle, though critical to the productive functioning of ecosystems around the planet, remains poorly understood. LÄS MER
