  • Agroforestry creates carbon sinks whilst enhancing the environment in agricultural landscapes in Europe 
    Sonja, Kay; Rega, Carlo; Moreno, Gerardo; den Herder, Michael; Palma, João H. N.; Borek, Robert; Crous-Duran, Josep; Freese, Dirk; Giannitsopoulos, Michail; Graves, Anil; Jäger, Mareike; Lamersdorf, Norbert; Memedemin, Daniyar; Mosquera-Losada, Rosa; Pantera, Anastasia; Paracchini, Maria Luisa; Paris, Pierluigi; Roces-Díaz, José V.; Rolo, Victor; Rosati, Adolfo; Sandor, Mignon; Smith, Jo; Szerencsits, Erich; Varga, Anna; Viaud, Valérie; Wawer, Rafal; Burgess, Paul J.; Herzog, Felix (Elsevier, 2019-03-06)
    Agroforestry, relative to conventional agriculture, contributes significantly to carbon sequestration, increases a range of regulating ecosystem services, and enhances biodiversity. Using a transdisciplinary approach, we ...
  • Land use and soil characteristics affect soil organisms differently from above-ground assemblages 
    Burton, Victoria J.; Contu, Sara; De Palma, Adriana; Hill, Samantha L. L.; Albrecht, Harald; Bone, James S.; Carpenter, Daniel; Corstanje, Ronald; De Smedt, Pallieter; Farrell, Mark; Ford, Helen V.; Hudson, Lawrence N.; Inward, Kelly; Jones, David T.; Kosewska, Agnieszka; Lo-Man-Hung, Nancy F.; Magura, Tibor; Mulder, Christian; Murvanidze, Maka; Newbold, Tim; Smith, Jo; Suarez, Andrew V.; Suryometaram, Sasha; Tóthmérész, Béla; Uehara-Prado, Marcio; Vanbergen, Adam J.; Verheyen, Kris; Wuyts, Karen; Scharlemann, Jörn P. W.; Eggleton, Paul; Purvis, Andy (BioMed Central, 2022-11-17)
    Background: Land-use is a major driver of changes in biodiversity worldwide, but studies have overwhelmingly focused on above-ground taxa: the effects on soil biodiversity are less well known, despite the importance of ...
  • Making hedgerows pay their way: the economics of harvesting field boundary hedges for bioenergy 
    Smith, Jo; Westaway, Sally; Mullender, Samantha; Giannitsopoulos, Michail; Graves, Anil (Springer, 2021-04-17)
    Existing landscape features, such as field boundary hedgerows, can contribute to food, fodder, material, and energy production for an EU bio-based circular economy. Recent trials undertaken by the project team in the UK ...
  • Projected changes in mineral soil carbon of European forests, 1990–2100 
    Smith, Pete; Smith, Jo; Wattenbach, Martin; Meyer, Jeannette; Lindner, Marcus; Zaehle, Sönke; Hiederer, Roland; Jones, Robert J. A.; Montanarella, Luca; Rounsevell, Mark; Reginster, Isabelle; Kankaanpää, Susanna (Agricultural Institute of Canada, 2006)
    Forests are a major land use in Europe, and European forest soils contain about the same amount of carbon as is found in tree biomass. Changes in the size of the forest soil carbon pool could have significant impacts on ...
  • The three-peat challenge: business as usual, responsible agriculture, and conservation and restoration as management trajectories in global peatlands 
    Girkin, Nicholas T.; Burgess, Paul J.; Cole, Lydia; Cooper, Hannah; Coronado, Euridice Honorio; Davidson, Scott J.; Hannam, Jacqueline; Harris, Jim A.; Holman, Ian P.; McCloskey, Christopher S.; McKeown, Michelle M.; Milner, Alice M.; Page, Susan; Smith, Jo; Young, Dylan (Taylor and Francis, 2023-11-01)
    Peatlands are a globally important carbon store, but peatland ecosystems from high latitudes to the tropics are highly degraded due to increasingly intensive anthropogenic activity, making them significant greenhouse gas ...
