Participation in modeling social-ecological systems across scales in agriculture and forestry Open
Participatory approaches have gained recognition in scientific research, particularly in modeling human-environmental interactions and social-ecological systems (SES). Despite this achievement, a lack of in-depth understanding prevails to …
Assessing holistic agroecological resilience of agroecosystems from a landscape perspective: a systematic review Open
Agricultural landscapes generally fulfill partially contradictory objectives: ensuring agricultural production (social and economic interests) and providing ecosystem functions (ecological interests). On one hand, maximizing production has…
Communicative Interventions for Autistic Employees in Academic Workplaces Open
This essay provides an autoethnographic account of my experiences as an autistic employee in academia. By examining organizational communication literature on autism in the workplace, I identify some key issues that autistic employees face…
Bee-Friendly Native Seed Mixtures for the Greening of Solar Parks Open
Photovoltaics is one of the key technologies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving climate neutrality for Europe by 2050, which has led to the promotion of solar parks. These parks can span up to several hundred hectares, and…
Linking food and land system research in Europe Open
Food-system studies often assess dynamics in production, consumption or processing and logistics in a spatially abstract manner. Land-system studies traditionally analyze land-use/land cover change with its environmental and societal drive…
A systematic review of the impact of food security governance measures as simulated in modelling studies Open
To effectively address food security, we need tools that assess governance measures (for example, strategic storage reserves, cash transfers or trade regulations) ex ante. Simulation models can estimate the impact of such measures via scen…

Observation of radiation damage in CdTe Schottky sensors created by 20 keV photons Open
The polarization characteristics of ohmic and (Al-)Schottky type CdTe sensors supplied by Acrorad have been characterized with the low noise, charge integrating readout chip JUNGFRAU, revealing defined areas in the Schottky type sensors, w…
Resilience Meets the Water–Energy–Food Nexus: Mapping the Research Landscape Open
Resilience thinking is increasingly promoted to address some of the grand challenges of the 21 st century: providing water, energy, and food to all, while staying within the limits of the Earth system that is undergoing (climate) change. C…

Characterization of Chromium Compensated GaAs Sensors with the Charge-Integrating JUNGFRAU Readout Chip by Means of a Highly Collimated Pencil Beam Open
Chromium compensated GaAs or GaAs:Cr sensors provided by the Tomsk State University (Russia) were characterized using the low noise, charge integrating readout chip JUNGFRAU with a pixel pitch of 75 × 75 µm2 regarding its application as an…
Patterns and drivers of recent agricultural land-use change in Southern Germany Open
Traditionally, agricultural land-use change (LUC) analyses focus on the conversion of natural land to agriculture especially in developing countries. Studies considering recent agricultural LUC (e.g., to built-up land) for the last two dec…
Superordinate Voltage Control in Smart Low-Voltage Grids –Laboratory and Field Test Results Open
Voltage control in low voltage grids is usually done using decentralized voltage control devices as on-load-tap changers or line voltage regulators, Volt/VAR-characteristics of infeeders or batteries. The application of a centralized super…
Replication Data for: Risk perception and decision-making: do farmers consider risks from climate change? Open
Data were collected during interviews with experts and farmers in Cauca between July and October 2014. After finishing both interview series, we analyzed the differences in perception between experts and farmers. To aggregate the individua…

Risk perception and decision-making: do farmers consider risks from climate change? Open
Small-scale farmers are highly threatened by climate change. Experts often base their interventions to support farmers to adapt to climate change on their own perception of farmers’ livelihood risks. However, if differences in risk percept…
Do ecosystem services provide an added value compared to existing forest planning approaches in Central Europe? Open
In forestry research, the concept of ecosystem services (ESS) is less prominent than in agricultural studies. One reason might be that multifunctional forestry and the concept of forest functions, i.e., societal demand from forest, are est…
Assessing Regional-Scale Impacts of Short Rotation Coppices on Ecosystem Services by Modeling Land-Use Decisions Open
Meeting the world's growing energy demand through bioenergy production involves extensive land-use change which could have severe environmental and social impacts. Second generation bioenergy feedstocks offer a possible solution to this pr…
Making environmental assessments of biomass production systems comparable worldwide Open
Global demand for agricultural and forestry products fundamentally affects regional land-use change associated with environmental impacts (EIs) such as erosion. In contrast to aggregated global metrics such as greenhouse gas (GHG) balances…
How can farmers‘ decisions and policy actions on novel bioenergy feedstocks affect the supply of ecosystem service bundles? Open
Meeting the world’s growing energy demand through bioenergy production involves land-use change which could have severe environmental and social impacts. In this context, decision-making problems in agricultural management need to be infor…
