This document discusses methods for mapping land degradation and sustainable land management. It describes a method jointly revised by LADA and DESIRE that places more emphasis on impacts to ecosystem services and direct and indirect causes of degradation. This method is being tested in several countries at national and local levels. The document also outlines some challenges in mapping degradation, such as how to visualize combinations of degradation types in a mapping unit and how to display complex data on impacts to ecosystem services. Additional challenges include area calculations and analysis, quantification and verification of results, and using remote sensing and modeling to improve the mapping system.

The mother of James and John asked Jesus if her sons could sit at his right and left hands in his kingdom. Jesus said they did not know what they were asking and being at his right or left was not his to grant. When the other disciples heard, they were indignant with the two brothers. Jesus then taught his disciples that to be great in the kingdom, one must serve others.

Hong Kong in July 2012 saw widespread protests against the government's plan to introduce moral and national education in schools. Thousands of residents marched in the streets and argued the curriculum promoted Chinese propaganda and patriotism over Hong Kong's local identity and values. The protests led the government to eventually suspend the curriculum plan.

The document discusses the concept of a green economy and how to transition towards one. It defines a green economy as one that improves human well-being and reduces inequality while not exposing future generations to environmental risks. It argues that a green economy is needed for both environmental and economic reasons, as current resource use is unsustainable. Key policies to transition include pricing environmental costs, government subsidies and regulations, and infrastructure investment. Metrics to measure progress combine economic and environmental performance.The Cost of Action and of Inaction Against Land Degradation

Soil erosion is one of the eight threats in the Soil Thematic Strategy, the main policy
instrument dedicated to soil protection in the European Union (EU). During the last decade, soil
erosion indicators have been included in monitoring the performance of the Common Agricultural
Policy (CAP) and the progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This study comes
five years after the assessment of soil loss by water erosion in the EU [Environmental science & policy 54,
438–447 (2015)], where a soil erosion modelling baseline for 2010 was developed. Here, we present an
update of the EU assessment of soil loss by water erosion for the year 2016. The estimated long-term
average erosion rate decreased by 0.4% between 2010 and 2016.

1) The 2018 European drought caused significant reductions in photosynthesis (GPP) at most forest flux tower sites, primarily through non-stomatal limitations rather than stomatal limitations.
2) Analysis showed a reduction in the maximum carboxylation rate (Vcmax, a measure of biochemical capacity) when relative extractable water (REW) dropped below 0.4, indicating decreased photosynthetic activity due to drought effects on biochemical processes rather than on stomatal conductance.
3) The degree of limitation (DoL) analysis demonstrated that non-stomatal mechanisms, likely including decreased mesophyll conductance and biochemical effects, were the dominant short-term reason for reduced GPP during the 2018Prognosverktyg i regional skala Julien Moeys

Global land degradation was assessed using satellite data on net primary productivity (NPP) from 1981-2006. Hotspots of degradation covered 25% of global land area, particularly in Africa south of the equator, Southeast Asia, southern China, and northern Australia. Degradation correlated with forest and grassland land uses. Though the analysis has limitations, it indicates large-scale trends that require further local verification of degradation drivers.

- Degraded land areas are defined as areas where biological or economic productivity has been reduced or lost due to pressures including land use and management practices.
- Sustainable Development Goal 15 aims to protect and sustainably manage terrestrial ecosystems and combat land degradation by 2030. Target 15.3 focuses on restoring degraded land and achieving land degradation neutrality.
- The UNCCD has developed a methodology using the SEPAL platform to calculate indicator 15.3.1, which measures the proportion of degraded land, using sub-indicators of trends in productivity, land cover, and soil organic carbon. SEPAL allows users to efficiently process satellite data to assess and monitor land degradation.

Interpretation of Landscape Values, Typology and Quality Using Methods of Spa...Universität Salzburg
The main result of this work consists in determined ecological significant areas of habitats that are under protection´s system of Natura 2000 Sites. The patches quantification of habitats is the partial result that influences process of determination of ecological significance. The interpretative process examines land cover patches by the set of landscape metrics for the area, size, density and shape (NP, PD, MPS, PSSD and MSI). The output values could express a spatial processes in the landscape, such as perforation, dissection, fragmentation, shrinkage or attrition. The final ecological significance of the study area-Sitno Natura 2000 site-is at degree 3, what means that the area is represented by moderately significant land cover patches-habitats. It indicates the same value as the one at the initial level. According to the value of the ecological significance, the study area has been diversified into three zones, where each one indicates specific level of conservation. The zones and the final degree of the ecological significance of habitats are retroactively compared to historical and cultural human development that started in this area as early as in 1st century BC. Theoretically, such a long period of intense human impacts on the local environment should completely destroy natural environment. Nevertheless, this area demonstrates rather good natural ecosystems conditions and well functioning ecological processes within the habitats. The human impact is now observed only in small range of size not more than 1,50% from total area of Sitno Natura 2000 Site. It can be explained, first, by low population density within the study area comparing to other EU areas, secondly, by accurate usage of the living area by the local population in general, and thirdly, by high resilience of the elements of landscapes towards any human impacts.Current estimates of land-related global emissionsand mitigation potentials/s...
1) Agriculture is responsible for 44% of global methane emissions and 81% of nitrous oxide emissions according to estimates.
2) The natural response of land to human-induced environmental change is estimated to be -11.2 ± 2.6 GtCO2e per year, partially offsetting net anthropogenic emissions.
3) Agriculture, forestry, and other land use activities account for 23% of total net anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions according to estimates, releasing 12 GtCO2e per year.

Frequency response analysis studies how a linear system responds to sinusoidal inputs. It has advantages over root locus analysis such as being able to infer performance from plots, handle time delays correctly, and work with measured data when no model is available. A frequency response shows how the amplitude and phase of the system's output changes with the input frequency. Bode plots on logarithmic scales are commonly used to display a system's frequency response based on its transfer function.

1) The document describes using diagonal reference models to analyze the effect of social mobility on long-term limiting illness using data from the UK ONS Longitudinal Survey.
2) Diagonal reference models estimate the effects of stable and mobile social classes on health outcomes. The models were fit separately for men and women using the gnm package in R.
3) The results found higher odds of long-term illness for lower social classes, and that the effect of social mobility was to dilute health inequalities, with larger effects for stable lower classes.
Enforcement and inequality in collective payments to conserve tropical forests
This study examined the effectiveness, efficiency, and equity of different monitoring and sanctioning strategies (public monitoring, external/government sanctions, and internal/community sanctions) for collective payments for ecosystem services (PES) programs. The study used framed field experiments with 720 participants across villages in Indonesia, Peru and Brazil.
The results showed that government sanctions were most effective at reducing deforestation but community sanctions had mixed and sometimes negative impacts on equity. Public monitoring alone had little impact. Inequality in wealth reduced effectiveness, efficiency and equity outcomes in some sites but not others, depending on local context factors. Overall, monitoring and external enforcement generally improved conservation outcomes, but there were also trade-offs between effectiveness and equity/efficiency that

This document describes a methodology for defining and assessing land desertification risk using simple indicators. Researchers analyzed data from over 1,600 field sites across 17 study areas to identify important indicators for various degradation processes. Multiple regression analysis was used to develop models for assessing desertification risk from water erosion, tillage erosion, soil salinization, water stress, overgrazing and forest fires. The results identified the most important indicators for evaluating desertification risk from each process.

This document summarizes a study assessing land degradation indicators in the Ribeira Seca watershed on Santiago Island, Cape Verde. The study aims to evaluate desertification risks using an integrated approach. Data was collected from 103 survey points and analyzed using indicators based on the DPSIR framework. Results show that almost 90% of the area has high sensitivity to desertification due to steep slopes, low vegetation cover, and high population density. While soil conservation techniques have been implemented, the indicators reveal they are not fully addressing the risks. The study demonstrates that indicators are useful for comparing desertification risks across locations and evaluating mitigation strategies.

1) The document describes a study evaluating sustainable land management techniques at a farm in semi-arid southeast Spain, including green manure, reduced tillage, water harvesting systems, mulching, and reduced tillage for cereals.
2) Preliminary results show that water harvesting increases soil water content and almond yields, while green manure also increases almond yields and reduces soil and water loss compared to conventional practices.
3) Final conclusions on the effects of these techniques on sediment yields are uncertain due to challenges calculating runoff contribution areas from laser scan data. Mulching also did not clearly improve outcomes so far.

The results identified the most important indicators for evaluating desertification risk from each process.
Cn 2 th14_inida_assessment of land degradation_baptista
This document summarizes a study assessing land degradation indicators in the Ribeira Seca watershed on Santiago Island, Cape Verde. The study aims to evaluate desertification risks using an integrated approach. Data was collected from 103 survey points and analyzed using indicators based on the DPSIR framework. Results show that almost 90% of the area has high sensitivity to desertification due to steep slopes, low vegetation cover, and high population density. While soil conservation techniques have been implemented, the indicators reveal they are not fully addressing the risks. The study demonstrates that indicators are useful for comparing desertification risks across locations and evaluating mitigation strategies.
Cn 3 th14_eeza_slm_measures_in_spain_sole_benet
1) The document describes a study evaluating sustainable land management techniques at a farm in semi-arid southeast Spain, including green manure, reduced tillage, water harvesting systems, mulching, and reduced tillage for cereals.
2) Preliminary results show that water harvesting increases soil water content and almond yields, while green manure also increases almond yields and reduces soil and water loss compared to conventional practices.
3) Final conclusions on the effects of these techniques on sediment yields are uncertain due to challenges calculating runoff contribution areas from laser scan data. Mulching also did not clearly improve outcomes so far.
Cn 4 th14_iswc_selecting_slm_technologies_using_stakeholders_wangfei
This document describes two stakeholder workshops conducted as part of the DESIRE initiative project in China's Loess Plateau region. The first workshop had 17 stakeholders and aimed to build understanding of land degradation issues and identify existing strategies. It improved awareness of land and water cycles. The second workshop had 21 stakeholders and used the WOCAT tools to select and evaluate promising strategies, including checkdams and converting grassland, to implement using criteria like environmental and economic impacts. The workshops demonstrated that stakeholder input and the WOCAT method can effectively select soil and water conservation practices, with balanced consideration of all options and criteria needed.
Cn 5 th14_inia_mitigatio_of_water_erosion_martinez
1) The study evaluated the effects of no-tillage systems and other soil conservation practices on mitigating water erosion in the Mediterranean climatic zone of central Chile.
2) Results showed that no-tillage systems significantly reduced runoff, soil losses, and nutrient losses compared to conventional tillage. Soil water content was also higher under no-tillage systems.
3) Specifically, no-tillage with subsoiling resulted in the highest crop yields, especially during drier years, by increasing water infiltration and reducing soil compaction compared to other treatments.
Cn 6 th14_aveiro_modelling_runoff_and_erosion_in_a_fire-prone_environment_coelho
This document summarizes research that used the PESERA model to simulate runoff and erosion in fire-prone environments in Portugal. The study areas have experienced extensive wildfires that damaged vegetation and increased erosion. The model was modified to account for fire impacts such as biomass and soil organic matter reduction. Simulation results showed that erosion response to fires depends strongly on rainfall intensity after fires. Prescribed fires reduced total erosion but not necessarily small wildfire frequency. A temperature rise scenario increased fire frequency and severity but total erosion rates were not higher due to more rapid post-fire vegetation regrowth.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
