Gravimetry-based water storage shifting over the China-India border area controlled by regional climate variability (2019)
Journal Article
Chun, K. P., He, Q., Fok, H. S., Ghosh, S., Yetemen, O., Chen, Q., & Mijic, A. (2020). Gravimetry-based water storage shifting over the China-India border area controlled by regional climate variability. Science of the Total Environment, 714, Article 136360. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.136360

The regional water storage shifting causes nonstationary spatial distribution of droughts and flooding, leading to water management challenges, environmental degradation and economic losses. The regional water storage shifting is becoming evident due... Read More about Gravimetry-based water storage shifting over the China-India border area controlled by regional climate variability.

Water storage redistribution over East China, between 2003 and 2015, driven by intra- and inter-annual climate variability (2019)
Journal Article
He, Q., Chun, K. P., Sum Fok, H., Chen, Q., Dieppois, B., & Massei, N. (2020). Water storage redistribution over East China, between 2003 and 2015, driven by intra- and inter-annual climate variability. Journal of Hydrology, 583, Article 124475. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2019.124475

National development and resilience are strained by shifting regional water storage patterns. The water shifting pattern has been found over China, but the underlying climate mechanisms of the pattern remain largely unexplored. In this study, how shi...

Climatic and vegetational drivers of insect beta diversity at the continental scale (2019)
Journal Article
Chesters, D., Beckschäfer, P., Orr, M. C., Adamowicz, S. J., Chun, K. P., & Zhu, C. D. (2019). Climatic and vegetational drivers of insect beta diversity at the continental scale. Ecology and Evolution, 9(24), 13764-13775. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.5795

Aim: We construct a framework for mapping pattern and drivers of insect diversity at the continental scale and use it to test whether and which environmental gradients drive insect beta diversity. Location: Global; North and Central America; Western... Read More about Climatic and vegetational drivers of insect beta diversity at the continental scale.

Bitter cucumber in diabetes (2019)
Journal Article
Uehleke, B., Krawinkel, M., Ludwig, C., Swai, M., Yang, R., Chun, K., & Habicht, S. (2019). Bitter cucumber in diabetes. Zeitschrift für Phytotherapie, 40(4), 172-174. https://doi.org/10.1055/a-0918-9693

The press office of the University of Giessen "advertises" an allegedly promising clinical study which was the first "scientifically tenable" study to show the blood sugar-lowering effect of bitter cucumber [Fig. 1] as "significant". The authors of t... Read More about Bitter cucumber in diabetes.

Does engagement build empathy for shared water resources? Results from the use of the interpersonal reactivity index during a mobile water allocation experimental decision laboratory (2019)
Journal Article
Bradford, L., Chun, K. P., Bonli, R., & Strickert, G. (2019). Does engagement build empathy for shared water resources? Results from the use of the interpersonal reactivity index during a mobile water allocation experimental decision laboratory. Water, 11(6), Article 1259. https://doi.org/10.3390/w11061259

Currently, there are no tools that measure improvements in levels of empathy among diverse water stakeholders participating in transboundary decision-making. In this study, we used an existing empathy scale from clinical psychology during an Experime... Read More about Does engagement build empathy for shared water resources? Results from the use of the interpersonal reactivity index during a mobile water allocation experimental decision laboratory.

Priorities and interactions of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with focus on wetlands (2019)
Journal Article
Jaramillo, F., Desormeaux, A., Hedlund, J., Jawitz, J., Clerici, N., Piemontese, L., …Åhlén, I. (2019). Priorities and interactions of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with focus on wetlands. Water, 11(3), Article 619. https://doi.org/10.3390/w11030619

Wetlands are often vital physical and social components of a country's natural capital, as well as providers of ecosystem services to local and national communities. We performed a network analysis to prioritize Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) tar... Read More about Priorities and interactions of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with focus on wetlands.
