Methane emissions and chemical pollutants often co-occur in natural and engineered environments, contributing to ecosystem degradation. Microorganisms play key roles in regulating these processes through methane oxidatio...

This comprehensive review examines the synergistic integration of climate mitigation strategies and circular economy (CE) principles as a pathway toward achieving global carbon neutrality. While traditional mitigation me...

Abstract Solar-powered electric-vehicle (EV) charging in tropical, PV-rich regions such as Uganda faces coupled stressors from high ambient temperature and intermittent solar irradiance, which can destabilize conventiona...

This article presents the Climate-Resilient Systems Prioritisation Index (CRESPI), a GIS-based spatial decision-support framework developed to support climate resilience planning through the prioritisation of Nature-base...

Climate conditions have a strong influence on the distribution of many natural communities; thus, the influence of global climate change may alter ecosystems. High-altitude wetlands in the Central Andes of Argentina (CAA...

In arid and semi-arid regions, irrigation demand across crop growth stages is highly sensitive to climatic variability, posing growing challenges for water management under climate change. This study investigates the spa...

Drought–flood abrupt alternation (DFAA) events, characterized by rapid transitions between drought and flood conditions, pose severe challenges to agricultural production, water resource management, and infrastructure ...

Nitrogen (N) is essential for global food production, yet its inefficient use leads to widespread environmental degradation and contributes significantly to climate change. This focus issue of Environmental Research Lett...

Context and background  Rapid urbanization in Lagos metropolis, Nigeria, has led to significant changes in its urban climate, manifesting as Urban Heat Islands (UHIs). Goal and Objectives: This study assesses the...

Urbanization and climate change are rapidly transforming metropolitan environments, posing serious challenges to sustainable development, climate resilience, and disaster risk management, Among these challenges, concern,...

Background: Climate change has a negative impact on smallholder farming, affecting both agricultural production and livelihoods. Agricultural extension services offer an essential role in enabling smallholder farmers to...

The choice of building façade materiality and composition plays a significant role in indoor and outdoor thermal comfort as well as energy efficiency. However, the carbon footprint of most construction materials contrib...

Abstract Non-technical summary Efforts to tackle climate change are increasingly delayed not through denial but through subtler arguments that emphasize costs, shift blame, or promote weak solutions. We created a tool to...

Addressing global climate change brings up a number of priority issues. The fundamental issue is the definition of the participants in this process and the scope of their competencies and areas of responsibility. Practic...

Abstract Globally groundwater depletion threatens water security with aquifer storage declining at 300 km³/year. Climate change intensifies flood frequency and magnitude causing agricultural and other losses. Punjab, I...

Abstract Background The use of biostimulants in agriculture has shown fabulous potential in combating climate change induced stresses such as drought. Improving agricultural productivity requires sustainable drought stre...

While concerns about the environmental issue intensify, agricultural activities continue to be a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions. Among these activities, those related to livestock farming stands out. Cons...

Abstract Agroecological transitions face a dual imperative: reducing pesticide reliance and minimising soil disturbance for climate mitigation. However, the blanket promotion of no-till practices may hinder ecological in...

Urban microclimate are localized climatic conditions within urban areas that are shaped by the buildings, population density, land cover, and vegetation, and that differ significantly from surrounding rural contexts. The...

As aviation's contribution to anthropogenic climate change is increasing, the sector aims at reducing its climate effect in accordance with international agreements. The strong and variable non-CO2 effects are complex, m...

ABSTRACT Tree legumes are an underexploited resource in warm-climate silvopastures. Perceived benefits of tree legumes include provisioning (browse/mast, timber, fuel, human food, natural medicines, and ornamentals), reg...

This study presents a comprehensive spatio-temporal analysis of nighttime Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Urban Heat Island Intensity (UHII) in Coimbatore from 2001 to 2022, highlighting statistically significant warm...
