Unraveling the link between agricultural patterns and dust storm occurrence in Mesopotamia
Dust storms have been an increasing concern in the Middle East. Severe drought events and human activities, particularly water and land management, have led to emerging dust sources in the last few decades. This study combines spatio-temporal maps of land susceptibility to dust storm incidence with agricultural land use change data to examine the link between farming patterns and dust storm generation in the Tigris and Euphrates Basin from 2000 t…
Framing energy cultures: Materiality and motivators of household energy transition in Nepal
Nepal has made major progress in expanding its national electricity grid, creating the potential for a double transition as increased access to electricity benefits the energy-poor while setting the infrastructural ground for a transition to renewable energy sources. However, despite increased access, many households in Nepalcontinue to rely on traditional and transition fuels such as firewood and gas. This can be problematic as without the actua…

Envisioning sustainable carbon sequestration in Swedish farmland
Negative trends of climate change and biodiversity loss are closely linked with farming practices, and it is therefore essential to re-think how agricultural systems can sequester more carbon, and simultaneously create vital ecosystems. The overall aim of this research is to imagine Swedish farms as carbon sinks rather than sources, and how to re-design the current farm- and food system to also address other social, economic, and environmental su…
Struggling for an ideal dialogue. An analysis of the regional dialogue processes within Sweden's first National Forest Program
In 2018, a strategy for Sweden's first National Forest Program was launched. As part of its implementation, County Administrative Boards have initiated dialogue processes for drafting regional forest strategies. Stakeholder deliberation is ascribed the potential to promote trust and mutual understanding, lead to more robust decisions and smoother implementation. We examine the dialogue processes, focusing on the two regions of Västra Götaland and…
Values held by Swedish primary school students towards forest ecosystems and the relevance for a nature’s contributions to people approach
How the concept of value is defined within ecosystem services operates as a filter through which important ecosystem features are identified by the specific benefits they provide to society and individuals. This value narrative reflects intrinsic and instrumental concepts which have been challenged by the Nature’s Contributions to People approach in additionally highlighting the importance of relational values, stemming from socio-cultural and et…
Explaining low yields and low food production in Cameroon: A farmers’ perspective
Living without buffers—illustrating climate vulnerability in the Lake Victoria basin
Exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity are essential, albeit theoretically vague, components of climate vulnerability. This has triggered debate surrounding how these factors can be translated into, and understood in, an empirical context subject to present and future harm. In this article, which draws on extensive fieldwork in the Lake Victoria Basin of Kenya and Tanzania, we illustrate how exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity play o…
GIS proximity analysis and environmental assessment of sugar beet transport in Scania, Sweden
Despite a heightened focus on sustainable transport and the increased use of biofuels, few studies have assessed the effects of such changes on a wider range of parameters. The aim of this study was to assess sugar beet transport in Scania, Sweden to determine how a switch to improved European vehicle standards and biodiesel impacts not only CO 2 releases, but also the parameters of regional land use and air pollutants. The study estimated lorry …
Agricultural performance on marginal land in Eastern Inner Mongolia, China – Development in the pre- and post-1978 reform periods
Rural Reforms and Changes in Land Management and Attitudes: A Case Study from Inner Mongolia, China
The international science community stresses the importance of the local perspective in the context of dryland degradation. This paper explores changes in management and attitudes in a mixed farming system in northern China, since the introduction of the economic reforms in the early 1980s, and the following changes in land-use rights. The area encompasses a dune landscape scattered with crop-land, as well as the Daqinggou Nature Reserve, an area…

The Energy of Raindrops
Høgh-Schmidt, K. & Brogaard, S.: The energy of raindrops, Geografisk Tidsskrift: 24–29. København juni 1, 1976. In soil erosion the precipitation energy is one of the main factors. It is generally expressed as the gravitional energy of the drops, but normally these also have a horizontal movement, i. e. an energy in the wind direction. By means of a simple mathematical model, the velocity of a drop can be calculated approximately and its dependen…
