How we measure 'reads'
A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text. Learn more

Article
The issue of migration is a current topic in different European countries. In this paper, we concentrate on the case of Switzerland. After the adoption of the Mass Immigration Initiative on 9 February 2014, Switzerland is faced with a challenging task. It needs to implement the constitutional mandate to manage migration autonomously, although Switz...

Rapid changes in atmospheric methane (CH4), temperature and precipitation are documented by Greenland ice core data both for glacial times (the so called Dansgaard-Oeschger (D-O) events) as well as for a cooling event in the early Holocene (the 8.2 kyr event). The onsets of D-O warm events are paralleled by abrupt increases in CH4 by up to 250 ppb...

Global wetlands are believed to be climate sensitive, and are the largest natural emitters of methane (CH<sub>4</sub>). Increased wetland CH<sub>4</sub> emissions could act as a positive feedback to future warming. The Wetland and Wetland CH<sub>4</sub> Inter-comparison of Models Project (WETCHIMP) investigated our present ability to simulate large...

The Wetland and Wetland CH4 Intercomparison of Models Project (WETCHIMP) was created to evaluate our present ability to simulate large-scale wetland characteristics and corresponding methane (CH4) emissions. A multi-model comparison is essential to evaluate the key uncertainties in the mechanisms and parameters leading to methane emissions. Ten mod...

The onsets of DO warm events are paralleled by abrupt increases in CH4 by up to 250 ppbv in...

Article
Temperature and precipitation show large and abrupt variations in the past as recorded in climate archives. In addition, these records demonstrate that the concentrations of atmospheric methane, which is the third most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas, follows closely temperature on glacial/interglacial time scales as well as rapid climate ch...
