To overcome the limitations of traditional models to simulate discrete environmental variables, this study introduces a novel, integrated simulation framework: the Spatio-Temporal Integrated Geographic Generative Adversa...

This study examines the challenge of measuring environmental sustainability in India using a multidimensional indicator framework that highlights the roles of nuclear energy and human capital in shaping long-term ecologi...

Estuaries function as sinks for microplastics due to their proximity to urban areas and pollution sources. Because of the great availability of plastic debris in these areas, these pollutants can be accumulated in biota ...

In recent decades, escalating climate change, continuous population growth, rapid urbanization, and extensive agricultural development have placed increasing pressure on global ecosystems. Particularly in China, intensiv...

Understanding LULC dynamics is essential for biodiversity conservation. This study quantified historical LULC changes from 1987 to 2023 and projected future trends (2023-2059) in Borana National Park (BNP) in southern Et...

Many of Earth's most biodiverse and biogeochemically active aquatic ecosystems—including groundwater karst systems, turbid estuaries and the deep ocean—are perpetually dark and hydraulically complex, making long-term...

Underwater gas pipelines are vital for energy transportation but are often subjected to harsh environments, and any leakage can have significant environmental consequences. Substantial underestimation of gas plume format...

Urban sprawl, the uncoordinated and spatially dispersed expansion of urban areas into surrounding rural lands, poses significant challenges to sustainable development, resulting in the loss of agricultural and forest lan...

Climate change-induced Extreme Weather (EW) poses cascading threats to Human Well-being (HWB). Yet, the complex spatial transmission mechanisms and the heterogeneous impacts of distinct climatic stressors remain understu...

Microalgae are promising platforms for CO2 mitigation. However, high CO2 exposure can impose physiological and environmental constraints, such as acidification and disruption of cellular homeostasis, which impair sensiti...

The purpose of this study was to assess hydrological controls (e.g., rainfall, irrigation practices, river discharge, dam operation, evaporation) on surface (SW)- ground water (GW) interactions in an irrigated valley wit...

Coastal ecosystems such as mangroves, seagrasses, and coral reefs are highly sensitive to shoreline instability and rapid land-use changes in industrializing regions. Nayband Gulf, located adjacent to the Pars Special Ec...

Small-scale agricultural production systems are characterized by high diversity and complex interactions that challenge their long-term ecological sustainability. This study presents an early-stage methodological prototy...

Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a major atmospheric pollutant in China, and understanding its spatiotemporal dynamics is essential for effective air quality management. Using hourly SO2 data from more than 2000 urban monitoring ...

Tropical forests hold the most species yet face the greatest threats and knowledge gaps. To improve tropical biodiversity knowledge we combined satellite-based LiDAR with in situ bird, mammal, and acoustic soundscape dat...

Communities are central to social-ecological systems where environmental dynamics, development pressures, and human well-being intersect. Yet, infrastructure planning often overlooks this complexity, leading to unintende...

Microplastics in agricultural soils may act as sorptive agents for organic contaminants. This study investigated the effects of soil aging of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) microplastics on the sorption and deso...

The tension between economic expansion and climate mitigation necessitates a deeper understanding of how finance, energy demand, and innovation jointly shape carbon emissions in emerging economies. In China, rapid financ...

This study analyzes the temporal synchronization and spillover impacts of China's green growth on African Regional Economic Communities (RECs) from 1996 to 2019, emphasizing emissions dynamics and environmental externali...

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...

Human–wildlife relations in alpine ecosystems reflect the combined effects of climate change, land-use transitions, and governance capacity. Rather than focusing solely on local conflict dynamics, this study investigat...

Hunger remains one of the most persistent barriers to human development, with progress uneven across regions and increasingly exposed to economic instability, climate pressure and structural vulnerabilities. This study i...

Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), a widespread environmental pollutant, has been increasingly implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic degenerative diseases. Environmental pollutants have recently been recognized as emerging risk f...

The rapid urban-induced Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) changes threaten river health, necessitating the identification of key drivers. It becomes essential to conduct a comprehensive assessment of anthropogenic changes t...
