Effects of climate change on combined labour productivity and supply: an empirical, multi-model study (2021)
Journal Article
Dasgupta, S., van Maanen, N., Gosling, S. N., Piontek, F., Otto, C., & Schleussner, C. F. (2021). Effects of climate change on combined labour productivity and supply: an empirical, multi-model study. The Lancet Planetary Health, 5(7), e455-e465. https://doi.org/10.1016/S2542-5196%2821%2900170-4Background: Although effects on labour is one of the most tangible and attributable climate impact, our quantification of these effects is insufficient and based on weak methodologies. Partly, this gap is due to the inability to resolve different imp... Read More about Effects of climate change on combined labour productivity and supply: an empirical, multi-model study.

Scientific floras can be reliable sources for some trait data in a system with poor coverage in global trait databases (2021)
Journal Article
Cutts, V., Hanz, D. M., Barajas-Barbosa, M. P., Algar, A. C., Steinbauer, M. J., Irl, S. D. H., …Field, R. (2021). Scientific floras can be reliable sources for some trait data in a system with poor coverage in global trait databases. Journal of Vegetation Science, 32(3), Article e12996. https://doi.org/10.1111/jvs.12996Aim:
Trait‐based approaches are increasingly important in ecology and biogeography, but progress is often hampered by the availability of high‐quality quantitative trait data collected in the field. Alternative sources of trait information include... Read More about Scientific floras can be reliable sources for some trait data in a system with poor coverage in global trait databases.
