Prof. Qingjun Guo Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Geographic Sciences and Resources Research 11A Datun Road, Chaoyang Beijing 100101 China [email protected]

Qingjun Guo is employed as a professor at the Center for Environmental Remediation, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China. Dr. GUO obtained his Ph.D. in 2003 from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He was a Humboldt fellow and guest researcher for 48 months at the West fälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Germany, working together with Prof. Dr. Harald Strauss. In the end of 2009, he returned to China and has been one of the »One Hundred Talents« funded by the »One Hundred Program« of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Research interests center on biogeochemical processes on Early Earth accompanied by traditional and non-traditional stable isotope fractionation, quality assessment of modern environments, detection of the sources and the fate of anthropogenic and natural compounds in soil and water, as well as remediation of polluted soils. His studies demon- strate that the combination of geochemical and multiple isotope diagnosis is a useful approach in order to get deeper insights into isotope fractionations and their mechanisms in the field of environmental geochemistry, to assess environmental quality, and to detect the sources of distinct pollutants in urban and rural areas.

Fields of Research Environmental geochemistry, environmental quality

Research Themes sources of pollution, multiple stable isotopes

María del Carmen Álvarez Enciso – Universidad Nacional de Asunción, Paraguay Study on the Vulnerability and Impact of Climate Change on the Great American Chaco (Gran Chaco Americano) Knowledge Center for the Great American Chaco1: The study aimed at developing a vulnerability and impact of climate change analysis on the Gran Chaco region, focusing primarily on identifying impacts on agriculture and water resources, and based on the results, defining proposals for adaptation based on ecosystems. The methodology was based on the definition of the IPCC 2001 which mentions that vulnerability is a function of the variation to which a system is exposed, its sensitivity, and its adaptive capacity, thus determining vulnerability, considering the three vulnerability factors that make up a linear function, where the values obtained from exposure and sensitivity are added, and then the adaptive capacity is subtracted, obtaining the final value for vulnerability. To estimate the adaptation means available for a given society, the concept of capacity is used as a source of capital2, where more capital implies greater adaptability. In turn, the capacities are classified as human, social, natural, economic and productive, infrastructure or built, and institutional. The study identifies for each unit of analysis, the »weaknesses« and the »capabilities«. The weaknesses are the sensitivities of agriculture and water resources, considering the changes in the temperature and the precipitation. The capabilities can be seen as potential developers and considered as tools for action and investment. In other cases, they are only »potential«, defined as intrinsic strengths for the factors concerned (e.g.: natural, social, human) that can be developed through investments of other external factors to become capabilities. The information in the study consists of quantitative and qualitative data, which were categorized to relate to each other and finally to achieve a rating or index to help identify the level of vulnerability of the region to climate change. The study provides homogeneous information for people and governments to develop adaptation actions and plans to prioritize their policies according to the needs for the entire region. On the other hand, provides an integrated vision of the problem of Gran Chaco from a climate perspective, aimed at making public policy decisions. This study was funded by Regional Gateway for Technology Transfer and Climate Change Action in Latin America and the Caribbean (REGATTA) its objective is to strengthen capacity and knowledge sharing of climate change technologies and experiences for adaptation and mitigation in Latin America and the Caribbean. Its design and development is aligned with the international climate change negotiations in the context of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC), after the Cancun Agree- ments at COP16, which established a Technology Mechanism. This study has been developed by institutions of the three countries: Formosa University of Argentina, University and Foundation Cordillera of Bolivia and Development Institute of Paraguay.

Flora. 2006, »Social Capital and Advocacy Coalitions: Examples of Environmental Issues from Ecuador.« Torben Ellerbrok – Universität Heidelberg, Germany Sustainable Development and Intergenerational Equity in German Law The Federal Republic of Germany claims to be a »green« nation, leading the way to a sustainable society. During the lecture, we will deal with the question of whether Germany meets this claim from a legal perspective. Therefore, the session focuses on the regulatory framework which aims at economic, ecological and social sustainability, such as the »dept brake« of the German constitution, the mechanism to promote renewable energies, and the characteristics of Germany as a »social state«. On a more abstract level, the lecture will have a look at the different ways German law uses to implement sustainability concepts. Within the lecture, we will focus on a handful of institutions, certain procedural steps as well as rules defining particular development goals. The session will cast a glance at reform prospects as well. Finally, we will take a European perspective: The session will explore how German law relating to sustainability is integrated in the regulatory system of the European Union. This raises the question whether transnational arrangements are essential to ensure a sustainable development of society.

Ulrich A. Glasmacher – Universität Heidelberg, Germany Climate Change: Geological and social Properties The recent discussion related to the evolution and change of the climate on planet Earth is daily »bread«. This discussion is controlled and steered by the results of scientific analytical work over the last 30 to 50 years, computer-based simulations of future climate evolution, and feelings of human beings. As the defined and discussed scenarios have summarized a tremendous hazardous change to the environment in the future, politicians have started to be active to control the human induced changes. As our planet is already 4,600 Million years old and humans are only acting on the planet during the last about 3 Million years the climate evolution in the geological past has to be considered. Therefore, the presentation will guide into the evolution of the climate on planet Earth over the last about 600 Million years. The question how life has reacted to climate change in the past will be discussed and why is the recent climate change dangerous for life and/or human beings on planet Earth. The presentation will also follow the question: What climate do we want to conserve on planet Earth, and can we use a heater or cooler to create the climate?

Qingjun Guo – Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Application of Sulfur Stable Isotopes in Environmental Quality Assessment Rapid urbanization and fast economic growth in China are accompanied by increasing anthropogenic pressure to environment. The industry area and related pollution might serve as an example for how anthropogenic contributions have affected Beijing’s environment. Differing species ranges of sulfur isotopic composition of surface soil, several soil profiles, surface water, rain water, tab water from industrial area and from rural area of Beijing are utilized for characterizing sulfur sources, identifying soil and water sulfur turnover and environmental quality assessment. Moreover, this study demonstrates that the combination of different species sulfur isotope diagnosis is a useful approach in order to assess environmental quality and to detect the sources of distinct pollutants in urban and countryside. 32/33

Peter C. Hackspacher – Universidade Estadual Paulista »Júlio de Mesquita Filho«, Brazil The sustainable development on Brazilian coastal and oceanic regions The sustainable development in Brazilian coastal and oceanic regions needs to be observed with a political, social and an economic focus. The Portuguese colonialist policy, among the 16th and 18th centuries imprint, in Brazil, a cultural identity of exploration without any sustainable policy. At that time, Brazil was used as a source of natural resources (gold) and agriculture. This concept is ingrained until now with large impact in continental and coastal/oceanic areas. Current views understand the coastal/oceanic regions as a discharge area. The policy for sustainable development in coastal/oceanic regions needs to involve federal, state and local authorities. In this context, coastal and oceanic Environmental Protection Areas (APAS) were created along the 8 000 km of Brazilian coastline. The economic use of natural resource must be related to a sustainable development policy. Focusing geological resources, we have to consider the exploration of different materials as: sand and gravel, oil and gas, sulfides, manganese oxides, hydrates and others. For a rational exploration we have to consider the needs to have, sustainable without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. In coastal/oceanic areas, sustainability has to be seen in the interaction of environment, social, and economics.

Michael Hiete – Universität Kassel, Germany Standard setting for responsible mining – a path towards sustainability? Mineral mining may be associated with significant ecological, social and socio-economic aspects. Even though some of the aspects are fundamental to mining such as the reduction of the resource base, other aspects can be considerably reduced such as water consumption or emissions and even others completely avoided such as child labor. Whether a mineral is mined in a more responsible or sustainable way is difficult to judge for a buyer as mineral resources are traded based on the resources’ qualities. Information about the conditions of extraction and comminution cannot be determined from the mineral resource and is typically lost in the supply chain. This makes it difficult for a more responsible mining company to distinguish its products from that of less responsibly producing competitors reducing the incentive to behave so. But as there is a growing demand for sustainable products among consumers as well as investors there is an increasing interest to achieve transparency and allow the information about the circum- stances of resource extraction to be propagated in the supply chain. Standard setting in combination with transparency along the supply chain may therefore foster more responsible mining. But defining what is should be communicated and whether there should be ambition levels for what can be defined as »responsible« needs thorough discussion.

André Jasper – Centro Universitario UNIVATES, Brazil The Gondwanan Late Paleozoic icehouse/greenhouse cycle: a paleobotanical approach to understand actual and future climate change Global environmental changes are probably amongst the most important human challenges for the XXI century and the prediction of future developments of the environment is currently an important point of discussion in different spheres and areas of science. To be able to establish future scenarios is necessary to take a look at the evolution of the environment during time, mainly to see how and why the Earth has gone through numerous changing events. One way to use this approach is the current debate about global climate change in which the discussion has so far not resolved whether the current global warming reflects short-term climate oscillations or a unidirectional long-term trend. A global greenhouse stands in marked contrast to the past 20 m.y. of glaciation and icehouse climate and, consequently, the most recent icehouse period may be a poor model to deduce the dynamics of environmental change in continuously directional warming, as expected by current IPCC scenarios for future global warming. The only time in Earth history in which the mosaic of the terrestrial environments was subjected to a long term transition from icehouse to greenhouse conditions, similar to the one the Earth will maybe experience in the near future, was the Late Paleozoic. Understanding and explaining the different events connected to the Gondwanan icehouse/greenhouse cycle will, therefore, help to establish efficient local and global policies for future environmental issues.

Tong Jiang – China Meteorological Administration, China Building a Resilience Society through adaptation, climate services for risk management in China and Asian Countries – China and EU cooperation Recently, in order to build a resilience society for China and Asian Countries, a book with a title of »China National Assessment Report on Risk management and Adaptation of Climate Extremes and Disasters« has been published in China the aim of this report is to provide recommendations and suggestions to decision makers to implement a resilience society through climate change adaptation and climate services for reducing future climate related risks. Detailed suggestions can be presented in this talk. The Chinese experiences for strategy of building resilience society can be transfer to Asian counties, in particularly for Central and Southeast Asian counties, as those countries have been connected with China through several larger international trans-boundary rivers. Finally, several cooperation programs in term of China-EU cooperation are listed and briefly introduced.

Marcelo Leppe – Instituto Antártico Chileno, Chile Understanding a changing world: lessons from the deep time Looking at the world from the geological timescale concepts such as extinction and global change, they become relatively trivial. However, the short human presence as a species over the face of the Earth, has forced us to build our civilization with much more restrict- ed temporal scales. The improved measurement tools and the most complete record of the remote past is providing a new basis for interpreting the changes that humanity is facing. Multidisciplinary approaches allow better explanations of the extinction and survival patterns of different lineages of living beings. Finally, the climate takes a greater role in explaining the abundance and distribution of organisms, in front of the paradigm of biogeography explained only in terms of plate tectonics. As an example of the new approaches to the problem of the interaction between environment and life through time, an overview of the changing paradigms related with Antarctica will be developed during this talk.

Jiangfeng Li – China University of Geosciences, Wuhan, China Sustainable Development in Mountain Regions in China Mountain regions supply half of the world’s population with freshwater, are repositories of important cultural and biological diversity, are sources of key raw materials Yet many of these regions are sites of dire poverty, widespread land degradation and inequitable land rights. The mountainous regions in China number 217 mountain ranges in all, with an area of 6.49 million km2 and make up 67.6 % of the total territory. The population is 44.7 % of whole country. The mountainous agricultural economy occupies an important in whole country. Further, mountain ecosystems and people have already begun to experience the negative effects of climate change. High population growth, resettlement programs have increased the pressure on the fragile natural resources in many marginal mountainous areas. These processes often result in a downward spiral of poverty, unemployment and food insecurity particularly in regions that are ecologically fragile and economically and socio-culturally extremely heterogeneous. 34/35

Bertil Mächtle – Universität Heidelberg, Germany Global climate variability during the last 100.000 years The talk gives an overview about the climatic variability of the last 100 000 years, triggered by ocean and ice-sheet dynamics and the precession cycles. The observed Pleistocene seesaw pattern appeared also during Holocene times, which gives evidence about general superimposed mechanisms of climate and its teleconnections. A key role plays the shift of monsoon dynamics, reconstructed from a number of paleoclimatic archives. Using the example of highly vulnerable desert margin areas, it will be shown that climate controlled also the rise and fall of human cultures by modulating the potential output of agro-eco systems. Crossing the threshold of resilience, climate forced migration and adaptation. Climatic variability will continue also in the future.

Antonios Mazaris – Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece Priorities and challenges for biodiversity conservation The continued growth of human populations and of per capita consumption have profoundly affected natural environment, altering the functioning and provisioning of ecosystem services. These impacts have been exacerbated by land use changes and climate change which are nowadays acknowledged as the basic threats to Earth’s biological diversity. To preserve biodiversity, networks of protected areas have been established worldwide, like the Natura 2000 network across the European Union (EU). Currently, this reserve network consists of more than 26000 sites covering more than 18% of EU terrestrial territory. Still, the efficiency of protected areas networks to mitigate the detrimental effects of land use and climate change remains an open research question. Here an attempt will be made to advance and integrate our understanding of natural and anthropogenic processes and their effects upon biodiversity at different scales. We will discuss the basic priorities for biodiversity conservation and the challenges that modern societies face towards assessing and ensuring the coherence and ecological sufficiency of networks of protected areas. Attention will be paid to National Security Risk assessments and their potential impact upon conservation initiatives.

José Rubens Morato Leite – Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Brazil Constitutional environmental law in Brazil: Jurisprudence in National High Court (STJ) The 21st Century is marked by a complex and multidimensional environmental crisis, which demands new approaches capable of offering adequate solutions for the existent environmental problems. Besides, this period in humanity’s history, called »the second modernity«, is characterized by the predominance of global risks, which have the characteristics of delocalization, incalculability and non-compensability. Therefore, within this context – in which dangerous climate change, water scarcity and deforestation represent real threats to the environment and to human well-being – States face new challenges in properly addressing these global risks and problems. Concerning more specifically Brazil, many are the cases related to the matter that reach the National High Court (STJ), which thus plays an important role in ensuring environmental protection, a right established by the Constitution. In order to achieve this protection, an adequate legal interpretation for the environmental legislation is needed, which must be based on environmental law principles and the fundamental right to a healthy and balanced environment. That being said, the lecture aims to analyse how the Brazil’s STJ Jurisprudence has been evolving in terms of the interpretation of the environmental rules related to protect areas, highlighting specific cases and their contribution to the consolidation of a more adequate interpretation strategy within the Court. This »new strategy«, also known as »environmental hermeneutics«, has been developed, mainly since the Constitution of 1988, and also contributes for the development of environmental law, once that the country’s environmental legislation is often miscomprehended and unclear and it is up to the Courts to give it the proper interpretation according to the Constitution, preventing the occurrence of major environmental harms. The search for these responses has led to the inclusion of environmental protection in various national constitutions and international documents on human rights.1 However, it has also brought about wide-reaching academic discussion on the necessity and legitima- cy of the recognition of a right to the environment itself.2 Therefore, the status that such a right should assume remains controversial. The debate about is area of is important by exploring the benefits of a rights-based constitutional approach within a ›radical-democratic‹ constitution. It does not provide an exhaustive analysis of the intersection of human rights theory, constitutional law and environmental protection; other works have scrutinized such theoretical foundations. Instead, it constitutes an attempt to develop a grounded examination of one specific case of constitutionalization of environmental rights. It does so by giving an account of the constitutional design adopted by a Latin American country, Brazil. Brazil has played a leadership role within Latin America by developing progressive domestic environmental law and including the right to a healthy environment in the 1988 Constitution as a fundamental right. With Brazil’s rise in global influence, both for its economic performance and for the value of its natural resources, its regulatory environmental choices are under scrutiny.

Anthony SF Chiu – De La Salle University, Philippines Green Industry Initiatives in Asia Pacific through Eco-Industrial Development and RECP Forty-five (45) Asia Pacific (AP) economies jointly requested the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) to organize a platform for greening the industry in 2009. The Philippine government hosted this ministerial summit in Manila on September 9-11, 2009; and led to the signing of the Manila Declaration on Green Industry. Some forty (40) experts in this Summit stayed on to participate in a back-to-back UNEP-UN ESCAP Sustainable Development expert meeting at Yuchengco Hall, De La Salle University on September 12, 2009, chaired by the author. The Green Industry Declaration aims to attain green industry initiatives and greening existing industries through various high impact sustainable production strategies, among these are eco-industrial development (EID), resource efficient and cleaner production (RECP), and greening of supply chain (GSC). Technological programs cannot happen in vacuum; the programs need enabling factors, especially the green industry policies at both national and local levels. This presentation will review some current policy updates in selected Asia Pacific and ASEAN economies. This presentation also attempts to describe how successful EID initiatives in certain AP economies can be benchmarked in other developing ASEAN economies, and what are the up-scaling options through proximity parameter and value chain criteria. Furthermore, as Green Industry has evolved to Inclusive and Sustainable Industrialization (ISI) scheme at the 2013 Lima Declaration; various elements introduced earlier present strong evidence to leapfrog current industrial performance towards a triple-bottom-line oriented Sustainable Development Goal (SDG). 36/37

Jale Tosun – Universität Heidelberg, Germany Extraordinary events, policy change and citizens’ trust How do extraordinary events exert an influence on parties and their policy preferences? How do instances of radical policy change influence the trust of citizens in political institutions? These are the research questions I will address in this talk that brings together theoretical considerations with empirical illustrations. Theoretically, I will draw on the literature on causes and consequences of policy change. While we have a sufficiently good understanding of what drives instances of policy change, less is known about how radical changes in policy-makers’ positions on issues affects citizens’ trust. Therefore, this second aspect will lie at the heart of the talk. Empirically, I will illustrate the causes and consequences of energy policy change by drawing on the example of the German state of Hesse. Immediately after the Fukushima incident the Prime Minister of Hesse, Volker Bouffier, gathered an energy summit in an attempt to prepare a U-turn in the state’s energy policy. While previously opposing the phase-out of nuclear power and the promotion of renewable energy, the exogenous shock of the Fukushima incident induced the state government to become an ardent supporter of renewable energy production. This decision had important consequences for party competition in the state of Hesse and can be seen as a decisive factor for the formation of a coalition government of the Christian Democrats and the Greens in 2013 – the first ever government coalition of this kind in Germany at the state level. However, with the new green agenda of the Christian Demo- crats some voters feel alienated from this party and engage in local protests against wind power projects. While the empirical illustration primarily draws on Germany, the consequences of radical policy change for citizens’ trust in political institutions will also be discussed for the Latin American case.

Sita Vanka – University of Hyderabad, India Sustaining Business among Women in Developing Societies – The Indian Experience The creation of an environment, which ensures fast development of productive resources, is a key driver for every society. Such an environment necessitates the transformation of structures, which promote the potential of development. The only strategy today in view of globalization and its accompanying dimensions appears to be self-employment and entrepreneurship. The creation of an environment that promotes entrepreneurial potential has become an important focal point in every governmental policy on development. India as a developing society also faced similar challenges to tackle unemployment, poverty and employment generation. In its journey of development, Indian women ventured into Businesses, which were the male preserve of Businesses between 1970’s and 80’s. The challenge and success of start-ups by women entrepreneurs raised issues of Sustaining Business at the onset of the 21st Century. An attempt would be made to highlight the entrepreneurial performance and problems of sustaining business among women from a developing perspective based on the experience of 89 women entrepreneurs in a variety of businesses. Success stories from the modern to traditional eco-friendly products/business would be included in the talk.

Vasiliki Almpanidou, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Global threats driving distribution and movement patterns of sea turtles Climate change poses a significant threat to global biodiversity. In order to mitigate its impact, scientists study the potential responses of species considered as ecological indicators, keystone and flagship. Sea turtles represent such a well studied cosmopolitan group of threatened species that spend most of their lifetime in open sea. However, at nesting season, females come ashore to lay their eggs. Thus, during their life cycle, they face various threats (i.e. habitat loss, anthropogenic activities), with climate change being of top priority. Species distribution models (SDM) are a valuable tool for assessing climate change impacts and conservation management issues. Still, before proposing conservation strategies, it is essential to assess the applicability of these models in predicting current and future distributions under different spatial scales. To this end, I investigated the accuracy of SDM for predicting present day global distribution of sea turtles. My findings highlight that efficient conservation management should not be applied on these macro- scales but should take into account climatic niche divergence that occurs on regional and local scales. In this context, I further examined future climatic suitability and potential shifts of loggerhead nesting site distribution, as an adaptive strategy to climate change, in Mediterranean. Based on the results, the necessity of understanding future habitat needs and connectivity among current and potential nesting sites emerge, while this kind of knowledge could facilitate regional-scale threats assessments, conservation prioritization and establishment of efficient protected area networks in this region.

João Mauricio Castaldelli Maia, University of São Paulo São Paulo Megacity: investigating a general model of causality involving the extreme urban environment and mental disorders São Paulo Metropolitan Area is a unique setting for this type of study for its socioeconomic diversity, with extremes of poverty and wealth existing side by side. Through structural equation modelling, we have tried to find a general model of causality involving the extreme urban environment and mental disorders. Stress acts as a mediating factor in the association between two megacity developmental variables (level of urbanicity and exposure to crime/ violence/offense) and the two dimensional phenotypes of mental disorders (phenotype 1 = anxiety, depression, impulsivity and insomnia; phenotype 2 = substance use disorders). We also found direct effects of megacity developmental variables in these two phenotypes. In contrast, social deprivation only had a direct effect on substance use disorders.

Lorena Celador Lera, University of Salamanca Development of efficient microbial fertilizers that reduce chemical fertilization in cereals and increase the production of these crops One of the main objectives of the current agriculture is reducing the use of chemical fertilizers. This reduction may help to minimize greenhouse-gas emissions and to avoid contamination of ecosystems. For this reason, the use of biofertilizers could be an efficient, affordable and suitable alternative. In this biofertilizer technology, Rhizobium-legume is most common inoculation with biofertilizer and widely used in different countries, but that rhizobia can make an association with others plants non-legumes. Therefore, further research in this area will be important to develop a sustainable biofertilizer technology for greater and environment friendly cereal production system. In this study several strains of Rhizobium found to be endophytes of maize were selected and then some of these were described as plant growth promoting bacteria that were also harmless to human health. Matthias Damert, Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz Individual Mobility as Climate Challenge – An Analysis of Corporate Climate Change Strategies in the Automotive Industry It is expected that there will be an increasing pressure on the automotive industry to reduce GHG emissions, since the transportation sector accounts for about one fifth of global CO2 emissions. The urge for cutting emissions will necessitate a different usage pattern of cars as well as the use of alternative technologies and new mobility services. The research objective of this dissertation is to develop a better understanding of business responses to climate change in the automotive industry by analyzing the characteristics of and drivers and barriers to corporate climate change strategies and their impact on firm performance. Based upon the results of this study, it is envisioned to give recommendations for a sustainable transition to a lower-carbon automotive industry to policy-makers and corporate decision-makers alike. For the study, a mix of quantitative and qualitative research methods will be used.

Alexandra Díez Méndez, University of Salamanca Evaluation of potential endosymbiotic bacteria isolated from different crops as biofertilizers Chemical fertilizers are employed in Agriculture since the Green Revolution (1950) up to the present day. However, that synthetic compounds are harmful to human health and the environment. Nevertheless, these negative impacts can be reduce by the use of biofertilizers. This ecological alternative can be achieved using plant growth promoting bacteria, such as Rhizobium, to increase crops yields. Outstandingly, Rhizobium bacteria and leguminous plant have evolved a complex signal exchange mechanisms which involve several molecules. Our research is focusing on the symbiotic relationship between leguminous plants and Rhizobium bacteria, and the main molecules implicate on it. Moreover, we will evaluate the possible synergic effect of bacterial strains from different genus in the growth plant promotion of leguminous and no-leguminous plants.

Jennifer Freer, University of Bristol Biodiversity and Evolutionary Ecology of Myctophids: An Abundant and Extraordinarily Diverse Clade of Deep-Sea Fishes It has been estimated that 90% of the oceans habitable volume lies beneath 200 metres and the deep pelagic remains the least explored of all marine environments. As a result, comparatively little is known about deep pelagic biodiversity and how future environmental changes will affect the species occupying these depths. What is clear is that within this midwater habitat there are extraordinarily abundant and diverse communities that provide important ecosystem services. For example, lanternfishes of the family Myctophidae inhabit depths of 200-1000 metres and are some of the most abundant fishes in the global oceans. They are central to ecological food webs, consuming zooplankton and transferring energy to higher trophic levels, and play a key role in oceanic nutrient cycling. This PhD project aims to use data at the scale of genes, species and ecosystems to provide core information on mesopelagic biodiversity, focusing on the Myctophidae (lanternfishes) and the Southern Ocean. By using a combination of phylogenetic, in-situ sensing and computer modelling approaches, we will better understand and help to protect this remarkable group of fishes. 40/41

Kamila Guimarães de Moraes, Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina Environmental justice and waste management: a transboundary and transdisciplinary analysis The main objective of this doctoral research project is to analyze comparatively the impact of the waste policy and its legislation in a developed country in the north, and do the same review in a developing southern country (Brazil) from the environmental justice point of view. It intend to perform this analysis between the countries (looking at the illegal exportation of waste from the north countries to southern countries, for example, as we do have cases of illegal exports of waste from Europe to Brazil) and inside each country, verifying how waste policies and legislation affect people in different ways – citizens from the centre of the city and those from the borders; poor and the rich people, among others. Therefore, it will be an interdisciplinary research, as it needs to be analyzed by different points of view, as the economic, social and legal, always considering the biophysical limits of the Earth and the concept of environmental justice.

Jinlong Huang, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences The risks of future climate change and sustainable development in Indus River Basin Indus River Basin in South Asia, mainly supplied by monsoon rainfall and glacier and snow melting water, is sensitivity to the changing climate. Flooding always occurred during the monsoon seasons, causing significant economic losses and deaths. The Indus River Basin, which contains one of the largest irrigation systems in the world, is also sensitivity to the reduction of water resources, threatening the food security. The changing climate will lead to changes in the intensity, extent and duration of extreme events, triggering unprece- dented weather and climate events. Hence the study of future climate changes and its effects on water resources is important for sustainable development in the Indus River Basin. My doctoral research project is focusing on flood/drought and water resources risks driving factors from climate change. Based on GCMs (Global Climate Models) or RCM (Regional Climate Model), projected changes of climate, water resources and flood/ drought situation for near term period (2016–2035), medium term period (2046–2065), long term period (2081–2100) will be presented. The result will provide a useful opportuni- ty to assess the impact of future climate change and scientific basis for the sustainable development strategies.

Bharat Kumar Chillakuri, University of Hyderabad Sustainable Human Resource Management for Strategic Success The two premises that Human Resources are consumed and are not reproduced; Human Resources are scarce is established (Kira, 2002, 2003; Thom and Zaugg, 2004; Muller- Christ, 2001; Ehnert, 2006, 2009). Sustainable HRM, as it is referred to, makes the scholars argue that the human resources are consumed physically, cognitively, socially and emotionally because of the increased work load at the workplace. They stress the need for nurturing the skills, knowledge, cooperation, trust, motivation, employability, industrial relations (Docherty, 2002) thereby, striking a balance between quality of work life and performance. It is the responsibility of the leadership to embed sustainable values among the employees across all the departments. Similarly, HR practitioners should play a pivotal role in creating a sustainable vision, mission and strategy, create an organizational structure to drive sustainable agenda, develop capabilities, competencies, skills of the human resources in creating sustainable HR systems and processes (Ernst & Young, 2013). With the globalization and internationalization, the need for skilled, technical and competent human resources is on the rise. HRM Scholars opine that intensive work, internationalization and globalization, diversity, demographic trends, aging workforce, labor markets, employment relationship, shortage of skills, lack of quality in educational systems etc. also contributed to the rise in Sustainable HRM (OECD, 2004, 2005). The study is an attempt to compare the sustainable HR practices in the IT sector in India that would contribute to the overall sustainable outcomes – Economic, Ecological and Environmental. Phu Doma Lama, Lund University Climate Change Adaptation among Communities: Understanding Scale of interactions between Formal and Informal Adaptation Practices Studies on scales of interaction between communities and government bodies (in relation to climate change adaptation) have been researched but focus has been tilted towards institutional technical fixes. Co-Management and community-based management are some of the local level efforts that have been reviewed. It is also essential not only to focus on the existence of these scales but the construction of interaction. In other words what are the factors influencing the construction of these scales. The study shall try to uncover whether there is delegation or devolution, consensus versus consent, community based versus community led management). This would enable understanding on what stimulates or impedes adaptive capacity of the community and municipality in question. Studies such as these shall act as a support complementary or supplementary or both in cases of designing policy (formulation and implementation) related to climate change adaptation.

Oriana Landa Cansigno, University College London Potential nutrients, water and energy conservation from reclaiming wastewater in urban irrigation Recovering resources from wastes in urban areas can improve the sustainability of consumption in the cities. In the case of urban water reuse projects, several authors have mention that implementation is mostly based on economic and technical analyses. Environ- mental benefits have an important role, but as they are not easily quantified sometimes are underestimated. Therefore, the aim of this research is to develop a decision model tool for wastewater reclamation in urban irrigation. The model will include the environmental benefits in different scenarios in terms of time and scale. Benefit estimations will be done including mass balances of nutrients, biomass, water, energy; life cycle assessments and multi-criteria analyses. It is believe that the inclusion of these benefits in a decision analyses could lead to a more holistic approach of sustainability of water reuse projects.

Daniela Oestreich, Universität Heidelberg Petrological and geochemical characterization of Paracas ceramics and clay deposits along an E-W traverse (Altiplano-Coast), south Peru The Paracas material culture (800–200 BC) developed on the south coast of Peru, and represents the first peak of pre-Columbian civilisations and heyday in ceramic production. Ceramics from three representative sites (Jauranga, Cutamalla, Collanco) and temporal phases of this period, and also regional clay deposits, will be geochemical and mineralogi- cal characterized. The aim is to resolve potential differences in the chemical composition of the artefacts in space and time. These data will provide the basis for interpretations regarding provenance analysis, production techniques, and trade. Also, during Paracas period significant changes in environmental conditions took place. The data of the research will be compared with data sets of pre-Columbian environmental conditions. Thus influences of changing environmental conditions on human societies and ceramic technology will be discussed.

André Luiz Queiroga Reis, Universidade Federal da Paraíba Sustainability Index in Environmental Basin: Another Urban Rivers Approach for Management and Planning in João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil The present work sought to develop an index that could promote environmental sustainability, provide preemptive information to both society and the government, as well as propose conservation actions that could harmonize the urban environment with ecosystem services provided by rivers and green areas in João Pessoa, PB, Brazil. The research project investigated the vulnerabilities and strengths of an urban socialecosystem in relation to urbanization projects, taking into consideration the harmony with natural environments still present in cities even with high degrees of urbanization – but without proper planning – in order to avoid the continuous deterioration of environmental conditions. The need for both government and society to work in an integrated manner to promote sustainability is emphasized.

Felipe Roa-Clavijo, University of Oxford Rethinking Rural Development in Colombia: Negotiation of Agricultural and Food Systems My research aims to understand to what extent the negotiation of interests and agendas among multiple actors (peasants, government, and private firms), located at different levels (local, regional, national) affect the productive aspects of the agri-food system – what is being produced, how it is produced and by whom – as well as the natural resource base on which these systems depend. The main questions I ask are: to what extent can the cross-scale agrarian negotiations between government and rural social movements shape the understandings and approaches to food security and food sovereignty? What are the competing visions and their implications for the national agri-food system? What are their environmental implications? For doing this I analyse the dynamics of the negotiation tables that were established after the 2013 national agrarian strike.

Nicole Schmidt, Universität Heidelberg Climate Change and Innovation Climate change (CC) is one of the main challenges of the 21st century. Though the physical science basis and magnitude of impacts are relatively well understood, dissention exists concerning response mechanisms. This dissertation examines the link between CC and innovation. The main argument is based on the positivist assumption that CC can function as a driver for innovation. Moreover, innovative policies should be able to prevent losses arising from CC. This is why this project asks, whether and how the governance structure for technological innovation driven by CC can be established. With the help of expert interviews and network analysis, the project engages with scientists and practitioners from the field. The main focus lies on Israel, the country with the highest innovative potential for clean technology.

Mariela Secchi, UNIVATES Brazil Pre-colonial occupations in the Taquari Valley – A Archaeobotany approach To understand and explain the changes that are occurring in the environment at present, it’s necessary to seek the answers in cases involving events in the past environments. For this, the archaebotanical analyzes (anthracological and palinological) cover a wide range of activities, and among them, the study of charred logs fragments (macroscopic charcoal) and palinomorphs rescued of sediment, are important tools for paleoenvironmental studies. Thus, this study aims to apply the results of archaeobotanical analyzes to be performed on Archaeological Sites RS-T-123 and RS-T-114, to assist in understanding the paleoenvironmental history of the Taquari Valley region (Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil). In this project, analogies will be made between the preterit human ocupations and the plants resources of the surrounding environment. Hemin Sun, Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology The Hydrological Cycle’s Change, Risk and Sustainable Development in China The hydrological cycle becomes non-stationary because substantial anthropogenic change of earth’s climate is altering the means and extremes of precipitation, evaporation, atmospheric water vapor, stream flow and other water-related variables. My research project uses long-term observation and re-analysis meteorological and hydrological data to study the relationships between rising temperature and the elements of water cycle, and to diagnose the reason of temporal and spatial variability of water elements. Then combined with regional economic data, we analyzed the demand of water resource, and forecasted future risk through the use of GCMs (Global Climate Models)/ RCM (Regional Climate Model) data and discussed the sustainable development for different climate change scenarios. The results produced are needed to manage and mitigate risks and uncertain- ties and to develop appropriate measures for adaptation.

Yinan Tu, Wuhan University Legal Structure of Carbon Trading System in HuBei Province Hubei Province is in the center of China. In 2008, Hubei launched the carbon trading scheme. The legal basis for the trading system is one central administrative regulation and three provincial regulations. The emission trading system distributes allowance in three ways. Firstly, government sets a cap target and dismisses the allowances. (The allowances are set by best available technology evaluation or by raw material calculation.) And enterprises can auction or buy the saving allowances in open market. Government also reserves emergency allowances to fit market’s need. Running 7 years, the trading system is in question. Allowances are over allocated. State owned enterprises and private enterprises’ are not getting the same treatment. The cap and trade system in whole doesn’t get significant effect. These require us to rethink the original legal design. In this thesis, the author will consider how to balance environmental capacity and economic feasibility value, will evaluate administration power in the system, will examine the implementation and MRV problem, will conduct comparative study from EU ETS and USA EPA’s experience, and will bring out improvement strategies for the legal system. 44/45

Shanshan Wen, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences Standardizing Economic Losses Caused by Tropical Cyclones in China Being located at the coastal Northwest Pacific Ocean, where the tropical cyclones generated most often in the world, China belongs to one of the countries frequently affected by tropical cyclones. Tropical cyclones frequently cause tremendous socioeconomic impacts, such as losses of life, stress of the affected population, damages of material assets, destruction of agricultural production, or so. Recent years, damages from tropical cyclones have been increasing obviously in China. Based on direct economic losses and socioeconomic data collected in the National Climate Centre of China Meteoro- logical Administration, my research project is focusing on the analysis of characteristics of tropical cyclones and their economic losses in China. Different normalization methods are applied to attribute socio-economic factors to increasing economic losses. Along with global climate changes and its own economic takeoff and progress in urbanization, China’s vulnerability to TCs increase with higher annual losses can be expected in the future. Two key issues I want to be resolved are: to what extent the causes for the high losses can be attributed to climatic changes and to higher damage potentials due to increasing material assets (i.e. the economic development of China) and growth in urban population (i.e. urbanization); the potential return periods of high economic losses based on observed tropical cyclones characteristics.

Thomas Winkler, Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz Scenarios for future greenhouse gas emissions of Austria The dissertation project is focusing on greenhouse gas (GHG) emission scenarios from different industrial sectors, specifically from the agriculture and livestock sector. The first paper of the dissertation is dealing with a comparison of different GHG scenarios for Austria to gain insight on the underlying scenario data assumptions. The results of the

paper provide a projection of Austrian’s CH4, N2O and CO2 emissions up to 2100 and show that even in the medium term (until 2030) the two-degree goal is not a reachable target for Austria’s climate policy. The second paper compares existing livestock emissions and projections on three different spatial levels (global, European, national) and two sets of system boundaries (inventory data and emission data considering the whole lifecycle). The third paper will be an environmental impact assessment of Austrian livestock products and the food waste produced along the food supply chain, focusing on GHG emission mitigation.

Mingjin Zhan, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences Spatio-temporal variation of haze days and atmospheric circulation pattern in China Severe haze, which threatens human health and the economic development, occurs more and more frequently in China. For more than 60 days in 2013, severe haze covered nearly all the eastern and southern parts of China, in particular the BeijingeHebeieHenan region, the ShanghaieNanjingHangzhou region, and the GuangdongeGuangxi region. The changing climate, which causes high temperature and less rain days, make the situation worse. The intensity, extent and duration of haze days become more severe. My doctoral research project is focusing on haze and sustainable development. My research target is to figure out the relationship between climate change, atmospheric circulation, economic development and haze, which are the guarantee for sustainable development in China. I hope I can figure out an environmental friendly development path from my work.
