    Effects of climate change on the profitability of carbon credit sales
    Effects of continuous inclusion in a virtually played ball tossing game called Cyberball on the P300 event-related-potential
    • 2012

      This study explores the impact of continuous social inclusion in a virtual ball tossing game on the P300 event-related potential through single trial analysis. Participants engaged in Cyberball, experiencing varying levels of inclusion and exclusion. The research focused on the P3b subcomponent, analyzing data using both raw and preprocessed methods, including Independent Component Analysis. The study aimed to understand how changes in target probability affect P300 amplitude and latency, ultimately comparing different analytical approaches to validate findings.

      Effects of climate change on the profitability of carbon credit sales

      A case study on Tectona grandis plantations located on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica

      Nina Becker's research provides a thorough analysis of the economics of carbon sequestration from an interdisciplinary perspective on the impacts of climate change on forest resources. The analysis is based on an integrated assessment that links a climate-yield model with a profitability analysis. In specific, Nina Becker investigates tree productivity under global and regional climate change scenarios. Furthermore, she demonstrates the potential effects of increasing tree productivity on the profitability of carbon credit sales. For this purpose, she conducted a case study on teak (Tectona grandis L. f) plantations on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. Nina Becker points out the potential of and future challenges for forest plantations in mitigating climate change. The book is aimed at scholars as well as NGOs and policymakers with an interest in forests and climate change.
