The enhancement and protection of coastal ecosystems that sequester carbon for climate change mitigation have developed over the last 15 years, and today are part of climate governance. After an initially challenging start in terms of policy interest, Blue Carbon is now included in some countries’ national inventories, and as such, enters the global sums of emissions and sinks, and becomes relevan

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change needs to do more to include the expertise and voices of women, even as numbers and policies improve.

The aim of this chapter is to analyse and describe how teachers’ use of theoretical conjectures in instruction during a Learning Study (LeaS) process affected high-functioning autism spectrum disorder (HFASD) students’ learning outcomes when following the national curriculum. Participants were students in grades 7 to 9 (n = 11) and their teachers (n = 5). The 11 adolescents (4 females and 7 males)

Declining butterfly abundance over recent decades coincides with both habitat loss and increasingly warmer springs. Warmer temperatures could pose a problem for ‘capital’ breeders, especially those species that enter winter diapause as a pupa or adult, since a higher metabolic rate pre-eclosion is expected to further deplete lipid stores needed for egg production. We undertook an experiment on Pie

The ability to generate and control movement is essential for human interactions and overall well-being. Neuromuscular impairment caused by neurological injuries and diseases, such as stroke or limb amputation, severely limits the ability of affected individuals to interact with the surrounding environment, necessitating advanced strategies for rehabilitation and restoration of motor function. Vol

Mänsklig aktivitet i buffertzonen på Cypern gör det nödvändigt att för det första utveckla en tydlig förståelse av detta områdes folkrättsliga status och för det andra i möjligaste mån besvara spörsmål om vem som har det folkrättsliga ansvaret där. Före-varande studie behandlar dessa frågor i tre delar: - Kapitel 2 ger en kort beskrivning av buffertzonen och dess historia, från dess inrättande 197

Despite the increasing recognition of the critical role that nature-based solutions (NBS) play in urban resilience, decision-makers in many cities across the Global South continue to prioritize grey infrastructure and engineered solutions. This prevailing approach may offer short-term economic advantages but ultimately falls short in ensuring the long-term sustainability and resilience of communit

A substantial part in planning for linear infrastructure like road and railways are dependent on the conditions of the ground. As such, much data is collected to categorise the subsurface in order to adequately design the planned structure, estimate volumes in earth works and apply reinforcements. This data, pertaining to the subterranean structure and composition, is usually not plentiful in earl
