TL;DR: In this article, the authors identified and assessed three promising measures to decrease nitrogen losses from agriculture, i.e., balanced fertilization, low protein animal feeding, and ammonia (NH3) emissions abatement measures.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare GlobCover and MODIS v.5 and show that the thematic accuracy in the cropland domain has decreased when comparing these two latest products.
Abstract: In the last 10 years a number of new global datasets have been created and new, more sophisticated algorithms have been designed to classify land cover. GlobCover and MODIS v.5 are the most recent global land cover products available, where GlobCover (300 m) has the finest spatial resolution of other comparable products such as MODIS v.5 (500 m) and GLC-2000 (1 km). This letter shows that the thematic accuracy in the cropland domain has decreased when comparing these two latest products. This disagreement is also evident spatially when examining maps of cropland and forest disagreement between GLC-2000, MODIS and GlobCover. The analysis highlights the continued uncertainty surrounding these products, with a combined forest and cropland disagreement of 893 Mha (GlobCover versus MODIS v.5). This letter suggests that data sharing efforts and the provision of more in situ data for training, calibration and validation are very important conditions for improving future global land cover products.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use population projections by age, sex and educational attainment to obtain income per capita paths to the year 2100 for 144 countries, using the robust link between educational attainment, age structure dynamics and economic growth.
Abstract: The quantitative assessment of the global effects of climate change requires the construction of income projections spanning large time horizons. Exploiting the robust link between educational attainment, age structure dynamics and economic growth, we use population projections by age, sex and educational attainment to obtain income per capita paths to the year 2100 for 144 countries. Such a framework offers a powerful, consistent methodology which can be used to study the future environmental challenges and to address potential policy reactions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suggest ways to choose the most appropriate sustainability assessment tool after briefly introducing the main assumption of each sustainability assessment assessment tool category, and identify the main implications that the choice of a tool entails.

TL;DR: Although Beijing's mutualism indices remained generally stable, the ecological relationships among compartments changed greatly, and ways to further optimize this system and the relationships amongcompartments are revealed, thereby optimizing future urban water resources development.
