Abstract

This study aims to detect, analyze, and evaluate the habitat changes, between 2010 and 2020, occurred in the Mediterranean wetland system of “Zone Umide della Capitanata e Paludi presso il Golfo di Manfredonia”. We classified habitats in 2020 using Eunis classification and we compared the obtained map with the Eunis map of 2010, obtained using the same approach, in terms of class area, Magnitude of Changes and the corresponding Trend Percentage of Change. It emerged that expansion of agricultural activities and alterations of the hydrological regime are behind most of the observed changes.

Abstract

Grassland is the second largest terrestrial ecosystem and a fundamental land resource for human survival and development. Although grassland degradation is a recognized and crucial ecological problem, there is no consensus on the area, scope, and degree of its global degradation trends, making the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 15.3 for achieving a land degradation-neutral world uncertain. This study quantitatively explored global grassland degradation trends from 2000 to 2020 by coupling vegetation growth and its response to climate change. Furthermore, the driving factors behind these trends were analyzed, especially in hotspots. Results show that the improvement in global grassland has been remarkable since 2000, with a 1.92 times larger area than degrading grassland, amounting to 372.47 × 104 and 193.57 × 104 km2, respectively. Africa and Asia lead in global grassland degradation and improvement, respectively. Globally, the combined effects of climate change and human activities are the main driving factors for grassland degradation and improvement, accounting for 84.72 and 87.76%, respectively. Notably, human activities played a crucial role in reversing the trend of grassland degradation in some hotspots. Finally, this study provides an essential scientific reference and support for realizing SDG 15.3 on global and regional scales. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

New Space technologies, Earth observation and satellite navigation in particular, have proven to be invaluable drivers of sustainable development, thus contributing to the protection of several human rights (the “Good”). At the same time, however, New Space technologies raise concerns for the right to privacy (the “Bad”), and face a number of challenges posed by hostile cyber operations (the “Ugly”). Dr. Arianna Vettorel analyzes the relevant international, European and domestic legal frameworks and highlights the need for several innovative approaches and reforms, in a transnational and bottom-up perspective, in order to maximize the Good, and minimize the Bad and the Ugly, of New Space technologies.
