Effects of agroforestry tree species on microclimate and enset ( Ensete ventricosum ) morphophysiology in South Ethiopia
Enset (Ensete ventricosum), a multipurpose crop domesticated solely in Ethiopia, serves as a staple food for more than 20 million smallholder farmers. In some traditional enset-based systems, it is cultivated under trees, but enset’s response to canopy cover remains unclear. This study examined how scattered trees in enset farms affect the microclimate and morphophysiology of enset in South Ethiopia. Trees significantly modified microclimate cond…
A seasonal inventory of household fuel consumption and associated emissions using digital methods in Eastern Rwanda
Composition, structural diversity, and regeneration patterns of tree species in the Kihamba agroforestry system
More than half of trees species in Kihamba system are non-native • Nativeness of the tree species influence structural diversity of the tree layer • Native tree species in Kihamba are at risk of extinction Agroforestry systems in mountainous landscapes deliver essential ecosystem services; however, changes in the overstory trees may threaten their structural integrity and resilience. We assessed the introduction of non-native tree species on the …
Revisiting wildfire resilience from a territorial perspective
Wildfires are increasingly recognized as a complex socioecological phenomenon, yet their linkages with territorial development are not clearly spelled out. This article seeks to unveil the sociopolitical and sociospatial ramifications of wildfires by framing them as a territorial issue, and understanding fire-prone territories as dynamic entities that emerge in essentially political processes, defined by socioecological relations that unfold acro…
Does increased tree cover in eastern Rwanda result in higher woody biomass availability for energy consumption
Woody biomass stock trends were assessed based on land cover and stock changes • Estimating biomass without per capita changes misrepresents its supply potential • Agroforestry stock decreased by 22.9% due to household overdependence • Per household biomass dropped from 3.7 to 2.9 m3, indicating unsustainable wood use • Policy should promote clean energy to ease pressure on woody biomass resources. Tree planting has been promoted for climate chan…

Critical slowing down precedes regime shifts in a Miombo woodland in Zambia
Climate change and anthropogenic pressures are increasingly driving abrupt regime shifts (RSs) in natural ecosystems, leading to biodiversity loss and disruptions in their functioning. In systems with alternative stable states maintained by feedback mechanisms, such shifts are difficult to reverse due to hysteresis. These systems may show early warning signals (EWSs) (e.g. critical slowing down (CSD)), indicating ecological resilience loss prior …

The more the merrier? Perceived forest biodiversity promotes short‐term mental health and well‐being—A multicentre study
Forests can foster mental health and well‐being. Yet, the contribution of forest biodiversity remains unclear, and experimental research is needed to unravel pathways of biodiversity–health linkages. Here, we assess the role of tree species richness, both actual and perceived, and how stress reduction and attention restoration can serve as potential mediating pathways to achieve positive mental health and well‐being outcomes. We conducted an expe…
The priorities in managing forest disturbances to enhance forest resilience
Roadmap to develop a stress test for forest ecosystem services supply
Forests play a key role in a bio-based economy by providing renewable materials, mitigating climate change, and accommodating biodiversity. However, forests experience massive increases in stresses in their ecological and socioeconomic environments, threatening forest ecosystem services supply. Alleviating those stresses is hampered by conflicting and disconnected governance arrangements, competing interests and claims, and rapid changes in techn…
Governing Europe's forests for multiple ecosystem services
Europe's forest provide multiple ecosystem services for societies, ranging from provisioning (e.g. wood) and regulating (e.g. climate mitigation and biodiversity) to cultural (e.g. recreation) services. In this paper, we assess the state and prospects of forest ecosystem services provision in Europe, introducing new data from the European collaborative research projects SINCERE, NOBEL and CLEARING HOUSE, and combining it with findings from the li…
Blazing the trail
Mediterranean territories have co-evolved and been shaped by fire throughout history. However, global environmental change conditions are increasing the size, intensity and severity of wildfires, which have gone from a regular natural disturbance to a serious threat for civil protection, surpassing firefighting capacities. Therefore, building resilience in fire-prone territories is an increasingly relevant policy and management objective. However…

Are forest disturbances amplifying or canceling out climate change-induced productivity changes in European forests
Recent studies projecting future climate change impacts on forests mainly consider either the effects of climate change on productivity or on disturbances. However, productivity and disturbances are intrinsically linked because 1) disturbances directly affect forest productivity (e.g. via a reduction in leaf area, growing stock or resource-use efficiency), and 2) disturbance susceptibility is often coupled to a certain development phase of the fo…

Contributions of a global network of tree diversity experiments to sustainable forest plantations
The area of forest plantations is increasing worldwide helping to meet timber demand and protect natural forests. However, with global change, monospecific plantations are increasingly vulnerable to abiotic and biotic disturbances. As an adaption measure we need to move to plantations that are more diverse in genotypes, species, and structure, with a design underpinned by science. TreeDivNet, a global network of tree diversity experiments, respon…
Sustainability in Development Cooperation
This study assesses for the first time the environmental sustainability of development organizations involved in North–South cooperation by quantifying the carbon footprint as a widely adopted indicator. Our objectives are to (1) analyze the criteria that should be met for correct greenhouse gas accounting of development organizations, (2) gain insight into the emission profile for a limited sample of development organizations from Belgium and Ge…

Carbon and Water Footprints and Energy Use of Greenhouse Tomato Production in Northern Italy
This study reports on the carbon, water, and energy footprints of tomatoes grown in a greenhouse in Northern Italy and two possible future variations of heating and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) fertilization on the current setup. The heat supply in place, consisting of natural gas (NG) and canola oil combustion, is compared to cogeneration and incineration of municipal solid waste for heating and CO 2 from industrial exhaust for fertilization. As a ben…
