      Jiborn, Magnus; Kander, Astrid; Kulionis, Victor; Nielsen, Hannah; Moran, Daniel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      In a world where climate goals are global but action remains firmly in the hands of states, reliable methods are needed to ensure that emissions reductions on a national level are not offset by carbon leakage. Appropriate ...
    • Do Amphibians and Cash Crops Compete for Scarce Water? A Spatial Correlation Analysis 

      Moran, Daniel; Petersone, Milda; Verones, Francesca (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      It has been argued that the trade of water intensive crops may be beneficial as it helps alleviate regional differences in water scarcity by effectively transporting moisture from humid regions to arid ones. However, the ...
    • Do Cash Crops and Species Compete for Scarce Water? 

      Petersone, Milda (Master thesis, 2015)
      Water scarcity is a major environmental challenge of today. More than 2/3 of global water consumption is used in agriculture, part of which for export production or so called cash crops. Some argue that trade of water ...
